00:00Tomorrow night in Indy, it's the Pacers hosting the Oklahoma City Thunder.
00:04OKC is a five-point road favorite.
00:08We have already talked about where the betting public is starting to invest their money,
00:12heavily backing the Thunder at this moment.
00:14Total standing at 228.5.
00:18DRS, if we are going to see at least six games in the 2025 NBA Finals,
00:23is tomorrow night in game number three an absolute must-win for the Indiana Pacers at home?
00:30It absolutely is.
00:32It really is.
00:32Because you say, well, OK, it's still 2-1 at that point.
00:35They can win game number four.
00:36We get that.
00:36But you want to put the pressure back on OKC.
00:39OKC had the pressure in game number two.
00:41They handled that flawlessly.
00:42That was a wire-to-wire victory.
00:44Said, you know what?
00:45OK, deep breaths.
00:46We're 1-1.
00:46Let's go handle our business in Indiana.
00:48Now you go into Indiana and say, OK, if Indiana can steal game three,
00:51all of that pressure, I mean, what a vice grip that would be understanding.
00:55You should have one more game in Indy before you even get back home,
00:58and you can't afford to go down 3-1.
00:59I don't care how good Oklahoma City is.
01:01I do think they're going to win the series,
01:03and I think they can still win the series if they lose game number three.
01:06I'm not going to think they can win game this series, Ben,
01:08if they lose games three and four and say, well, now you've still got to win.
01:11That's still three straight victories you've got to have over the Pacers
01:13when the Pacers beat you the first three out of four games.
01:16You need that victory in game number three for Indiana to keep the pressure back on OKC.
01:20Because if Indiana wins game number three, the series isn't over.
01:24If Oklahoma City wins game number three, the series is over.
