One game determines the winner, who will win? In the last seven tiebreaks in the finals, only the Cavaliers won away games

Finals, the Pacers defeated the Thunder 108-91, rewrite the series score to 3-3, dragging into the tiebreak battle. The two teams will decide the winner and lose in one battle. Whoever wins will win the championship, and if they lose, they will miss the first championship in the team history.

Judging from the first six games of the finals, although the Thunder's overall strength is stronger, they have no absolute advantage in the finals, so they were dragged into the tiebreak battle by the Pacers. The Pacers can persist until the tiebreaker, which means they do have the ability to win the championship. In fact, after taking a 2-1 lead, the Pacers had a great chance to win the championship, but unfortunately they lost two games in a row next time, and the Thunder got the match point first. Fortunately, they successfully dragged into the tiebreak battle and still had a chance to win the championship.

Since the Thunder ranks first in the league this season, they also have a home advantage in the finals, and the tiebreak battle will also be played at the Thunder at home, which is undoubtedly a huge advantage for the Thunder. The Thunder's home record has also reached 10 wins and 2 losses this year, while the away game is only 5 wins and 5 losses, and the gap is very obvious. The Thunder's home win points in the playoffs also reached +247, setting a record for the best in history, while the away win points were -67.

It can be seen that for the Thunder, the gap between the tiebreaker and the tiebreak is very large or the away game is held at home or away games, and it can even determine the result of the game to a large extent. Of course, for the Pacers, the away game is also a disadvantage, but their away record this year's playoffs is still very good, reaching 7 wins and 4 losses, but they lost to the Thunder in two of them, but they also defeated the Thunder away in the first game of the finals.

From the historical perspective, the teams that played at home in the finals tiebreak battle also have an absolute advantage. In the past seven finals tiebreak battles, the home team's record has reached 6 wins and 1 loss, and the only loss was the 73-win Warriors in 2016. But the situation this year is also very special, because the Cavaliers won three consecutive games to complete the comeback when they were behind 1-3. This is also the only 1-3 major reversal in the history of the finals. Data such as

are obviously very unfavorable for the Pacers, but the Pacers dragged the finals into the tiebreak after losing the Battle of Tianwang Mountain. The teams that dragged the tiebreak into the tiebreak in the last three finals 2-3 were eventually reversed and won the championship, namely the Cavaliers in 2016, the Heat in 2013, and the Lakers in 2010. So the Pacers also have hope of winning the championship, especially since they just beat the Thunder in Game 6, which has a great psychological advantage.
