Will we get a close game in the WCF?

Watching NY-Indy game 3 makes it feel like everything is scripted. The calls that all went NY's way and the fact that Indiana just completely forgot about Halliburton in the 2nd half is crazy.

The Oklahoma City Thunder demolished the Minnestoa Timberwolves 124-94 in Game 5 to make their second NBA Finals appearance and first since 2012. The Thunder are 12-4 (8-1 home and 4-3 away) in the 2025 playoffs; swept the Grizzlies 4-0 in the first round, beat the Nuggets 4-3 in the Western Conference semifinals, and dispatched the Timberwolves 4-1 in the conference finals.

The Timberwolves have lost in the Western Conference Finals in 5 games for the second straight year and all three of their conference finals appearances. They previously lost to the Mavericks in 5 games in 2024 and to the Lakers in 6 games in 2004.

The Indiana Pacers demolished the New York Knicks 125-108 in Game 5 to make their second NBA Finals appearance and first since 1999. The Thunder are 12-4 in the 2025 playoffs; beat the Bucks 4-1 in the first round, beat the Cavaliers 4-1 in the Eastern Conference semifinals, and dispatched the Knicks 4-2 in the conference finals.

The Knicks last appeared in the Eastern Conference Finals in 2000, when they also fell to the Pacers in 6 games. That marked the end of a 7-year run when the two teams met 6 times in the playoffs, with each franchise winning 3 series.
