The new star duel Alexander won a game, Halliburton was locked at the decisive moment, and the Thunder turned the tables!

On June 14, the fourth NBA Finals match continued in Indiana. Before the game, the Pacers led 2-1 in the big score. This game is no less important to the two teams than the Battle of Tianwang Mountain. The Pacers were able to win the finals with one goal in one go. Only one team in history has completed a reversal when they were lagging behind 1-3. If the Thunder wins, they will not only regain their home advantage, but return to Oklahoma in the next stop, and the balance of the entire round of the finals will be tilted towards them again.

The Pacers showed a more determined determination to win in the first three quarters, and they always maintained the lead in the score. They even led by double digits at the end of the third quarter. Unfortunately, the Pacers' mentality was affected in the fourth quarter. Coupled with the referee, the young players were powered off on the offensive end. In the last 3 minutes, they were hit 9:0 by the Thunder. Even though the Pacers played a chance to steal and free throws with defense, Matherine's key 1 of 4 free throws made the team unable to make it difficult to make the team turn things around. In the end, they were reversed by the Thunder 104:111 at home and lost the finals.

The Thunder's reversal this time is due to their balance between offense and defense, especially on the offensive end. They have three major scorers, Alexander, Homgren and Jewish. Alexander has the ability to "hard solution". It was precisely because of his long shot from the outside and mid-range scored 5 points in a row at the critical moment, and the free throws were steadily made, and the Thunder achieved a rebound in the score. Alexander scored 35 points, 3 steals and 1 block throughout the game, including a frontal block Halliburton's outside shot.

In contrast, Halliburton is slightly inferior in superstars. In fact, he can stand up to help the team score when the team is behind and tied. However, when the decisive moment requires the stars to solve the problem by playing one-on-one singles, Alexander's MVP-level scoring ability and efficiency are more vividly demonstrated.

In the next battle of Tianwang Mountain, if the Pacers want to continue to take the initiative in winning the championship, Halliburton must activate his teammates' offense as much as possible in the first three quarters to gain more lead. Once the score is in a stalemate, the Thunder will have more offensive methods than the Pacers. In the end, who will lead the team to laugh to the end this year, let's wait and see if the competition between the two young stars will be the last one!
