Oklahoma City Thunder vs Indiana Pacers Game 6: The Context
Game 5 was bound to be a turning point. On Monday, on their home court, the Thunder took a decisive lead over the Pacers ahead of Thursday’s Game 6 in the race for the 2025 NBA title, winning the game 120-109 to take a 3-2 lead in the series.
Indiana paid for its poor start to the game. Completely outplayed in the first half, the franchise trailed by 18 points in the second quarter and then by 14 points at the break (59-45). Its star player, Tyrese Haliburton, was absent and said he was not 100% at the end of the game. It was therefore Cameroonian Pascal Siakam, with 28 points and 6 rebounds, who had to step up and carry his team on his shoulders in an attempt to get back into the game. It was all in vain. Without the usual contribution from their point guard, the challenge was too hard. The Thunder were dominant. Jalen Williams was in legendary form. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s teammate led his team to victory with an exceptional performance, scoring a total of 40 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists.
Now, it’s time for Oklahoma City to seal the deal—they’re just one win away from capturing the first championship ring in their history. But the Pacers, who have once again shown plenty of fight, refuse to give up and promise an intense and hard-fought battle.
