Here are three lessons Golden State can take away from the last series of the 2024-25 NBA season: Both rosters are stacked with rangy, bouncy athletes between 6-foot-4 and 6-7 who can make open 3-pointers – and sometimes not-so-open triples – and manufacture shots while also playing hounding defense.

The Thunder has twice outplayed the Pacers with only one win to show for it. What have we learned from these NBA Finals? What’s in store for Game 3?
