Inside the Shocking Moment the Indiana Pacers Hijacked Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals from the New York Knicks
The barrage at the end gave the Pacers 38 points in the fourth quarter, tied for their most in any fourth quarter in playoff history. They also hit seven 3s in the quarter, their most in a postseason fourth quarter.
Yet, it would all have been for not if the last bucket didn’t go down for Haliburton. He definitely got a friendly bounce (it didn’t bounce around as much, but it evoked the game-winner Kawhi Leonard hit to crush the Philadelphia 76ers’ collective soul in 2019), but just getting a shot online to the rim was impressive. He had to separate quickly with his step back, did that and reacted with the Miller choke sign. Television shows are rebooting everything from the ’90s and apparently the NBA playoffs are now, too.
