2025 NBA Finals: OKC Thunder vs Indiana Pacers

[bksballer89]

It’s all about stringing it out and getting every game in an optimum
spot

And the teams at their best rest wise

Why is there only 1 day off between games 3 and 4 only? Odd concept

Lakers/Heat was every other day, but no travel obviously.

Yeah the Covid schedule is not applicable

Take these few extra days and eliminate a few back to backs during the season IMO.

It's the finals, they want to put as many games on the premium days as possible (Friday and Sunday)...game 7 is Sunday. Also they can milk the attention.

One thing is certain, the last thing they are concerned with is ending the season

Dam, thought game 1 was tonight. Why are they not playing sooner??

The NBA locks in the dates way early so they don’t know how many games conference championship series will go when the dates are picked.

This finals has taught us that the best way to make the finals is to trade Paul George.

I knew ESPN was following me

Step 1 of building an NBA Finals team: Trade Paul George

The Thunder and the Pacers can trace their superstars and their cores back to trades involving the nine-time All-Star wing.

They're going to be disappointed when the series doesn't go past 5 games lol.

They’re already jumping out of windows because it’s those markets and not New York or Boston or LA lol

Is that right? Weekend night after a work day (Saturday night is different) I would think is a good night for east coasters to stay up
