Both teams have had their fair share of comebacks and have proven why they are battling for the NBA championship. <\/p><p>The series is currently tied at 2-2 after Shai Gilgeous-Alexander&rsquo;s 35-point masterpiece gave the Thunder a 111-104 win in Game 4. Thus, the talks of this series reaching a potential Game 7 have grown louder. Will we see the series return to a winner-takes-all Game 7 scenario?<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Thunder vs Pacers Finals Series Betting- Cat-and-Mouse Battle<\/h2><p>In Game 1, the Thunder was up by 9 points with three minutes remaining. It looked like a done deal for them.&nbsp;However, the Pacers pulled off a comeback as Tyrese Haliburton nailed the game-winner as the Pacers won 111-110.<\/p><p>It was the fourth time the team had erased a 7-point deficit this late in a game during the playoffs. In Game 2, the Thunder clapped back with a 123-107 win as Shai Gilgeous exploded for 38 points.&nbsp;<\/p><p>In Game 3, the Pacers were down by 7 before the start of the fourth quarter. But boom, it was another riveting comeback as they won 116-107. In Game 4, it was the Pacers who had a 7-point lead entering the fourth. But it was OKC&rsquo;s turn to show that they can rise when the chips are down.<\/p><p>Alex Caruso and Chet Holmgren tied the game, and then <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/nba-finals-2025-game-4-okc-thunder-pull-off-a-comeback-to-take-down-indiana-pacers-111-104-tie-series-2-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Shai Gilgeous-Alexander closed it out<\/a> with a 15-point personal run. Thus, we have seen both teams play their best basketball thus far and display their never-say-die spirit. <\/p><p>Their endurance indicates that we might be in for the first seven-game series since the 2016 Finals.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Thunder vs Pacers Finals Series Betting- Will There Be a Game 7?<\/h2><p>Yes, we haven&rsquo;t had a Game 7 in the Finals for around a decade. This series has the perfect setup to repeat such a scenario. The home-court advantage has mattered little as both teams have split their games.&nbsp;<\/p><p>But it may become more important in crunch time. The Thunder will have two out of the next three games in their Home Arena. The Pacers won&rsquo;t sweat it. They have been underdogs in three straight series and know how to get the job done.<\/p><p>One important factor here is the bench production. The Pacers have held a significant advantage in the area, so with the starters catching fatigue, it can be a huge difference-maker.<\/p><p>On the other hand, SGA refuses to yield to exhaustion and has continued to attack the paint in the same way as he has been doing since the regular-season opener.&nbsp;<\/p><p>I personally feel that the series will be finished in six games. And the tally will be 4-2 in favor of the Thunder. I expect SGA and Jalen Williams to take control while putting faith in the Thunder defense. They remain the series favorites despite the Pacers&rsquo; resilience.&nbsp;<\/p><p>The odds also suggest the same and favor a 4-2 outcome in favor of the OKC Thunder.<\/p><p class=\"has-vivid-red-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-b29461a993f7d1a066d2029daf876e4f\"><strong>NBA Finals Series Prediction: Oklahoma City Thunder wins 4-2 for -110 <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/go-BetMGM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>at BetMGM<\/a><\/strong><\/p><p class=\"has-vivid-red-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-fc5459627fc2644fa44ef41c2f1c1b00\"><strong>Series to finish in 6 games: -140 <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/go-BetMGM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>at BetMGM<\/a><\/strong><\/p><p><strong>Photo Credit: <\/strong>Kyle Terada-Imagn Images<\/p>\n<div class=\"mm-layout mm-layout-type-post mm-layout-slot4\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The NBA Finals series between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Indiana Pacers has been one of the most exciting championship rounds in recent history.
