In the finals, the Pacers lost to the Thunder 91-103 and finished second. During the game, the team's core Haliburton left the court due to injury and was suspected to have suffered a serious injury to the Achilles tendon.

After the game, US media Hoops tweeted: "James makes people feel that it is easy to enter the Finals every year, but it will never happen again after entering the Finals for eight consecutive years!" Another US media Playmaker replied: "When you think of this, you will feel crazy."

Since James left, no team in the East has entered the Finals for two consecutive years.
