The Indiana Pacers made history with their offensive output on Sunday in Madison Square Garden. They took down the New York Knicks in Game 7.
NEW YORK — With 4:59 left in Game 7 of the Indiana Pacers vs New York Knicks second-round series, John Starks finally sat down.
At that time, Indiana's star flipped in two more points. Tyrese Haliburton, who answered every question asked about him during the series, dropped in a finger roll at that time to put the blue and gold up by 16. For Haliburton, it was his 26th and final points of the night. It thwarted a 10-4 Knicks run and officially put the game away. Starks knew it was over. The entire Madison Square Garden crowd knew it was over.
"We have a historic offense," Pacers center Myles Turner said after the win. "This is what we've been doing all season long, and we were able to show it on the biggest stage." "We got a good number of stops... when we got stops and rebounds, we can score," Carlisle said. He believed that rebounding and hustle to loose balls helped his team get going on the offensive end.
The Pacers walked off the hardwood after winning and showing their respect for the Knicks, who pushed them for seven games. They went back to their locker room, which is tucked back off of the court and sits a healthy distance away from the nearest restroom. Yet from just outside that restroom, the elated Pacers could be heard clearly breaking down a huddle in the locker room with a "1, 2, 3, Pacers!" They had reasons to celebrate. They just made history.
