SHOCKING! HT Indiana (2-3) 64 Oklahoma City 42

I am gabsmocked.

TWELVE turnovers by the "Thunder" in the 1H, leading to sixteen Indy points. 2 and 2 for the "Pacers". My jaw drops.

Indiana shot just a tad better, 44.2%-43.6%--but they had so many more SHOTS! 52-39; Rebounds were 21-22--Indy is running away with the game, largely (not entirely!) on turnovers.

The first half brings up three momentous questions:

1) Why isn't the fat lady up there?
2) Are we really looking at a G7?
3) Can Indiana REALLY win two straight games?

Answers are!

1) I'm not convinced beyond a reasonable doubt.
2) 80%-90% probability we are.
3) Ew. Er, uh...G7 would be in OKC. I don't think they really can.
