Josh Giddey Picks Pacers Over OKC Thunder to Win NBA Championship, Sparks Heated Debate
Josh Giddey has thrown his support behind the Indiana Pacers as his pick to win the NBA championship, even over his former team, the Oklahoma City Thunder. While some might see that as a surprising choice, Giddey made it clear that his prediction isn’t meant as a slight toward OKC. In fact, he praised Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the rest of the Thunder squad, calling them a great team with serious talent and potential. Giddey, who was traded to the Chicago Bulls, still holds respect for his former teammates but believes the Pacers have what it takes to go all the way this season. “At the end of the day, may the best team win it,” he said, emphasizing that it’s all about performance when the stakes are highest. With both the Pacers and Thunder looking like strong contenders, fans can expect an exciting postseason ahead.
