On June 14, in the NBA Finals G4, the Pacers were more than three quarters ahead of the last quarter and were reversed by the Thunder. They lost the game 104-111 and let the tiger return to the mountain. The two teams scored 2-2, and G5 will be the battle of Tianwang Mountain.

Where did the Thunder win? Alexander scored 15 points in the last 4 minutes and 38 seconds, showing his true nature as a superstar. Mathering, who had made great contributions before, made a disaster in the last two minutes of the game. He missed three consecutive free throws and fouled twice on the defensive end when he was not serving. He gave the Thunder two free throws for free.

Pacers' failure must have their own factors, but the referee's turn a blind eye to the last 3 minutes is also crucial. The Thunder completed the key round of overtaking, from Alexander's mid-range.

At that time, there were 2 minutes and 23 seconds left in the last quarter. The Thunder fell behind 102-103. Facing Nesmith's defense, Alexander took the ball and launched an attack. After the two confronted each other, Nesmith fell to the ground, Alexander made a steadily jump shot from mid-range, and the Thunder, who had been suppressed for almost the entire game, finally completed the overtake in the score.

This goal is extremely critical, and the Pacers fans closest to the "site of the incident" collectively signaled that they had a foul. Through slow-motion replay, it can be seen that Alexander held the ball in his left hand and opened the right elbow with an obvious pushing move, and only then did Nesmith fall to the ground.

So, where is Foster? He was less than 2 meters away from Alexander and had a whistle in his mouth, but he didn't blew it. I wonder what the coach Gong Xiaobin will make when he sees this scene?

Next is the Pacers' offensive round. Turner intends to pass the ball handily with Halliburton. Dort rushed over and pushed Halliburton out without hesitation.

In this way, Dort completed the steal, rushed to the basket and caused a foul, and made a free throw. Halliburton looked confused, and the referee still did not say anything. Dortmund made one of two free throws, and the Thunder took a 2-point lead to suppress the Pacers.

Of course, there is no if. If the referee called Alexander for an elbow foul and scored an invalid goal, and Dolter was awarded a foul for pushing someone, what would the game be like?
