❄**UNCUT** LAST 5 MINUTES OF INSANE 2025 GAME 1 NBA FINALS (PACERS vs. THUNDER)

A couple of crossovers inside, layup off the glass, Halliburton, the other way. Halliburton's got to get himself involved. Layup, back shot's good. Tyrese Halliburton makes it a four-point game. He's got 12 points, 10 boards, and six assists. Inside, home run layup, long go, Siakam gets it. Nymhart's so aggressive. This kid is unafraid. Spins, well defended by Dort, shot clock at seven. Halliburton sees an opening, kicks it out, Turner a three. And Caruso the rebound. A great look that wouldn't fall. Right now, OKC clinging to a four-point lead here in game one of the finals. SGA the drive, SGA the finish! That is a ridiculous finish. It's the need that's more important than the finish, in my opinion. Halliburton in the corner. Nymhart back up top, Holmgren guarding Halliburton. On the drive, pull back, step back, three-pointer! And Jalen Williams goes high for the rebound, with three and a half remaining. Pacers showing their grit in their fight, will it be enough? SGA the drive, a foul, blocked shot. She's going to take a brief rest as Halliburton picks up his first. Delay of game, that's what Carlisle was arguing about. Taking a lot of shots, 13 for 27. Clutch free throws right there. Lead back to eight. SGA switches up, Halliburton on the drive, gets into the paint. Wild shot, way off, rebound, Siakam! And a shot won't go but a foul. That was one of the things I was always taught when I got into this league. If you want them to talk about you, your performance in the postseason. How consistently you do it in the postseason. You do that a couple of times, and all of a sudden your name becomes on the top of the list. He has struggled in the playoffs at the free throw line. They're going to call a lane violation on the second missed free throw. Boy, you could go weeks and weeks watching NBA games and you won't see a free throw lane violation. Mark Digno taking a look. But he does a little something funky with his hand. Right before, that hand is off the ball as it's still going up. It just looks unique, and yes, everybody's in the lane. Because they know he struggles with the free throw line, Mike. Oh, he's going to get one more. Alex Caruso pleading his case to David Guthrie. Toppen will come in, Turner will sit down. 3.07 remaining. OKC is led by as many as 15, but the Pacers have cut it to four multiple times here in the fourth. That's what he's facing. Had that little hitch again, but this one goes down. Emard, full-court pressure. Oh, and Emard runs over Caruso, tried to pick up an off-the-ball charge. This is safe play on. Here comes the double. Ball lost. And a foul called. No center on the floor, no Hartenstein, no check for OKC. Five-point game. Make it 36. They've hit 11 of 13 free throws here in the fourth. Lead up to nine. Emard, pushing it up the floor. Double-team. Knocked away, gets it back. Toppen wanted to shoot, Caruso wouldn't let him. Nismith, rattles it, rattles it home. Nismith with his third three-pointer. Every time OKC gets a little breathing room, the Pacers have an answer. Six-point game with two and a half to play. SGA kicks it out. Williams fakes, fires three-pointer. Nismith, the rebound. Nismith and Emard play catch. Tyrese is not even the main ball handler at this point in time because the defense has been so aggressive. Emard steps back, three-pointer. Got it! Three-pointer from Emard. It's a three-point game with 1.59 remaining. He's hit some big threes in his three-playoff career. Some anxiety here for the fans in Oklahoma City. Wallace kicks it out. Dort, three-pointer. Williams couldn't grab it. Calabert, back to Nismith. Nismith, the drive inside. Blocked by Dort. Oh, what a rejection from Lou Dort. SGA drives. The finish, it's good. He's a scoring machine. He's got 36. Caruso called for the foul. Lou Dort, all-defensive team. Watch this challenge. Straight verticality. Then the block, the discipline. This is ridiculous. Stay straight. Those arms can come over if contact forces it. He stays positioned. That is just so difficult. On the other end, this is what they do. They turn turnovers, great defense, into fast-paced transition opportunities, and then Shea just finishes off the job. Nembhard hits the free throw. 13 points. Four-point game. We heard Rick Carlisle saying, you've got to attack off the drive. This is what has made Nembhard successful. In this half. Two clutch free throws right there. Again, both teams in the penalty. Each team with multiple timeouts. The thunder clinging to this three-point lead. SGA, the drive, inside. Shot, block. Siakam throws it back. Nembhard, Denise Smith, up top, topping under a minute remaining. Nembhard and Wallace. Step back, three-pointer. Short, rebound, the follow. Siakam puts it in. One-point game. Boy, Siakam, just so opportunistic. Makes the block on one end. Keeps moving. He is a relentless mover, Siakam. SGA guarded by Nembhard. Back up top, Jalen Williams. Shot clock at five. Williams on the drive. Gets in the paint. Puts it up off the glass. Won't go. Siakam's out of bounds. Thunder ball with 22.5, but Indiana might challenge. Every player on Indiana is asking for that challenge right now. We have a timeout. After a few, Siakam is the last to touch the ball prior to going out of bounds. There is no foul possible for the play. The challenge is unsuccessful. SGA has it. There's about a nine-second difference shot clock and game clock. Douglas Alexander spins, pulls up, jumper. Off the mark, won't go. Rebound, knee spin. Patience with a chance to win it. Final seconds, no fouls to give. Halliburton looking. Halliburton driving. Pulls up, jump shot. It's gone! With three-tenths of a second remaining. Timeout, OKC. Tyrese Halliburton does it again. Their first lead of the game. No dribble, no turn. Three-tenths of a second remaining. And now Rick Carlisle will call a timeout. Caruso looking. Throws it up on the rim. Knocked away! And Indiana takes game one. Shocking the thunder here at OKC. The comeback kids do it again. What a victory for the Pacers as Tyrese Halliburton...
