Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, also known as SGA, looked like an MVP all night long, and the Oklahoma City Thunder evened the series at one. For the Pacers, it was like, “where are you, Tyrese?” We needed Tyrese last night, but the Thunder were like sharks with their mouths open. The Pacers had no answer for the MVP and the rest of the sharks. As a result, this series is headed back to the heartland of America tied at one. I am proud of Rick Carlisle and the rest of his coaching staff. It’s not easy getting one in Oklahoma, which we did. We wrestled home court advantage away. The heartland is going to be loud and very boisterous on Wednesday and Friday. They might even say SGA is a flopper! We need you, Pacer Country, don’t sit down until Tyrese hits a three. Mark Boyle, get your Slick Leonard tape ready, because the Pacers are going to win two games in the heartland.
