You know, we've seen so many of these massive comebacks in these playoffs, whether it was the Pacers against the Knicks, the Knicks against the Celtics, the Pacers against the Bucks, the the Nuggets against the Thunder. We've seen a lot of these and they all seem to follow pretty much the same formula, which is.

The team that was up has a massive collapse, missing all their shots and taking too many threes and not making them and turning it over. And the team that comes back hits a flurry of threes. Someone goes on fire like Aaron Neesmith against the Knicks. That didn't happen last night. It was a weird kind of chip away, chip away. The Pacers were far from perfect down the stretch.

The Thunder were far from perfect. collapsing down the stretch, and yet it was a little bit of, they scored two, these guys scored three, these guys scored two, these guys scored two, these guys got an offensive rebound here, these guys got an end one here. And next thing you know, Halliburton has the ball with a chance to win the game, and we're all looking like, the arena didn't realize it.

Like, all those other games that I mentioned, think about it. Everyone in the crowd is gasping and groaning, like, oh no, what's happening? The Thunder crowd never saw it coming, dude, because it just felt like, nah, they got this, they got this. Look, a review out of bounds of Siakam. Game over. And literally Halliburton hits that shot and everyone was like, holy, holy crap.

Are the Pays going to win this game? And so it was just a remarkable, it's one of like, I've never seen so many NBA media players and NBA league office personnel legitimately giddy after an NBA finals game because it was the type of game that makes you happy. If you love basketball, if you don't care which one of these teams win, that game made you happy.

I was in such a good mood yesterday after that game.

No, for sure. I mean, there was a fear. Obviously, the Thunder opened one of the biggest favorites in the last 25 years or whatever. There was a fear that, oh, my God. It's not that it's too small markets. The fear was that Oklahoma City is going to annihilate these guys, and everyone's going to be like, what a boring finals that was. So this thing kind of tilts everything on its head.
