The Indiana Pacers stunned the New York Knicks in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals on Wednesday night. Riding a historic hot hand from Aaron Nesmith and the outrageously clutch play of Tyrese Haliburton, the Pacers overcame a late 15-point deficit to send the Knicks to overtime and eventually steal home court advantage with a victory.
The shot of the game (and maybe the best play of the playoffs so far) came from Haliburton, who drained a crazy fadeaway jumper at the buzzer in the fourth quarter to tie the score. Like Kawhi Leonard's improbable 2019 buzzer-beater, Haliburton's shot bounced high in the air before swishing through the net. Way up in the Madison Square Garden rafters, the Inside The NBA crew went nuts.
