Thunder's panic meter after Game 1
The Thunder's Game 1 collapse was wild. How concerned should Oklahoma City be going into Game 2? The For The Hoops crew gives a panic meter rating on a scale of 1 to 10.
The Indiana Pacers did it again.
Tyrese Haliburton led the Pacers to a double-digit comeback to steal Game 1 of the 2025 NBA Finals on Thursday, capped off by a yet another game-winning shot to defeat the Oklahoma City Thunder, 111-110. Haliburton had 14 points (6-of-13 FG, 2-of-7 3PT), 10 rebounds and six assists in the win, while Pascal Siakam contributed a double-double with a team-high 19 points and 10 rebounds.
The Thunder now find themselves in a 0-1 hole despite being in control for much of Game 1. Oklahoma City forced the Pacers into 25 turnovers, the most Indiana has surrendered all postseason long, and had a 15-point cushion in the fourth quarter before conceding the Pacers' first lead of the game with .3 seconds remaining after Haliburton's go-ahead field goal.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander finished with 38 points (14-of-30 FG, 3-of-6 3PT), five rebounds, three assists and three steals in the losing effort. Luguentz Dort finished with 15 points, four rebounds and four steals. The Thunder will look to even the series at home on Sunday before the NBA Finals shifts to Indiana.
