It is going to be exciting. Magic Johnson took to X, where he said, “The Pacers vs. OKC Series will be a lot closer than people think!

Further, Johnson said, in another post, “You have the NBA MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and in my opinion, the MVP throughout the entire Western Conference Playoffs on one side.

Players that have great individual stories, teams that have a great story collectively. And we’re proud to be a part of that.”Meanwhile, Indiana Pacers’ Tyrese Haliburton said what fans can expect, “I think (they’ll see) two high-level teams that play an elite style of basketball, who share the ball really well, and a lot of different people that can chip in.”Haliburton said, “I think that’s the exciting part about this.

I don’t want to say it’s like a passing of the torch because the old heads are still here.”“They’re still playing very, very well. But definitely to see two young teams, two young organizations, fighting to win a championship, I think is a very big deal,” Haliburton added.
