The Thunder entered the Finals as one of the biggest favourites in NBA history. They failed to win Game 1. We expect they will make things right in Game 2. After all, that’s exactly what OKC did against the Nuggets in the Western Conference semifinals.

Denver beat the Thunder in Game 1 in Oklahoma City. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s team came back in Game 2 and blew out the Nuggets in a 149-106 victory.

So, assuming the Thunder haven’t completely fallen apart after Game 1, I think they will get the job done here. I’m backing them to cover the 10.5-point spread @ $1.87.

It’s hard to predict anything besides a blowout for the Thunder in this game. That said, I don’t expect the Pacers to completely roll over. They’ve scored over 100 points in all but one of their 17 playoff games this postseason.

The Thunder, meanwhile, have consistently scored close to 120 points at home in the Playoffs so far. I think they will clear that easily on Sunday.

Assuming these predictions hold true, I’m going for OVER 228.5 points @ $1.91.

One of the most surprising things about Indiana’s Game 1 win was just how bad they played. The Pacers were dominated in the first half. Their rebounding prowess is the only reason they were only down 12 at the break.

In my opinion, the most telling stat was the amount of times the Pacers turned the ball over. Indiana turned the ball over 20 times in the first half. No NBA team has had 20+ turnovers in a half since 2007.

It’s unlikely that the Pacers will turn over the ball as many times on Sunday, but we still expect them to be loose with the ball, which is good news for Lou Dort. The Canadian had four steals in Game 1 and more than two steals in six of his last seven playoff games.

I’m predicting that this pattern holds and willing to place a bet on BetFocus that Lou Dort bags more than 1.5 steals @ $2.55.
