If the Pacers lose this series – it’s 2-2 headed back to Oklahoma City for Game 5 – they will look at Game 4 as the one that made the difference, the one that altered the direction of the series.

Oklahoma City's appearance in the Finals is its first since Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook and James Harden led the franchise there in 2012.

OKC now leads 3-2 in the series following great performances by Jalen Williams, who had 40 points, and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who had 31.
