Thunder vs. Pacers prediction, picks

Justin Martinez: OKC 117, Indiana 106

OKC led for all but 0.3 seconds of Game 1. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 38 points, which marked the third-most points by a player throughout league history in an NBA Finals debut. And OKC forced Indiana to commit what tied for a season-high 25 turnovers. The Pacers found a way to steal that game, but I expect the Thunder to regain control of the series Sunday with a home win.
