Shot clock at seven, Brunson with it.
He'll make a move, fly inside,
and a big basket for Brunson.
Great job changing hands.
I'm really surprised that they've left
Shepard on him one-on-one.
And I'm surprised they don't have Miles Turner,
the rim protector, on the floor as well.
Nesmith, three, good!
Another one from outside.
And now it is a six-point game again.
Under a minute to go, Hart is right there,
pressure by the Pacers.
Towns, Bridges, Towns to the hole.
Nesmith again, three, got it!
He's a flamethrower!
Five-point game, timeout taken, 34 seconds to go.
Wow.
The Knicks have got to get up and take away the three.
Bridges to inbound, cutting Brunson.
Inside, and an OB, bobbled the ball.
Oh, they'll challenge this.
After review, it's been deemed that
Zyockim makes legal contact with the basketball,
dislodging it.
Any contact afterward is deemed incidental.
It's a successful challenge.
Due to the imminent possession going to Indiana,
it's Indiana basketball, sideline out of bounds.
And they're down after the challenge,
so it's a dead ball on the side.
I don't know what the controversy there was.
Nesmith, it's a three, it's a two-point game!
Oh my goodness.
It's a two-point game with 22 seconds to go.
Try to go for the steal, timeout here by the Knicks.
On a six-to-foul.
New York is out of timeouts, Indiana has one.
Brunson to inbound, Nesmith on the ball.
Oh, he slipped, he fell.
And it's picked up by Hart.
Now Brunson splits the D, drives, flies, feeds.
Clock is ticking, there's a Toppin foul on Towns.
Wow, near turnover on the inbounds.
Towns at the line.
He's eight for nine going into these two here.
Playoffs, he's 92% from a free-throw line.
Gonna get McBride back in the game for Brunson.
Bryant is gonna check in for Indiana and replace Toppin.
Here comes Myles Turner in the game.
Well, when you see the two bigs come in,
you know you're taking a timeout, made or still.
Nimhard will leave.
Lot of size in there for Indiana, 14.3 in regulation.
Knicks by three.
No timeouts.
Indiana won, Towns again.
He's got 33.
And a timeout taken, 13.9.
Or excuse me, in front of that Milwaukee bench.
Well, the other thing with this much time,
if they get up a shot,
you're worried about offensive rebound and kick out three.
Nimhard, knee Smith.
They're gonna call it on the floor.
Right, and you guys talked about that.
Ananobi was over there.
That much time was left when Halliburton missed
and got the ball back and won the game in Cleveland.
But no, I'm having him make this.
There's plenty of time.
There's the foul.
Yeah, there's the foul.
The foul happened first.
Look at his right foot.
But the foul happened first.
Okay.
Yeah, he's gonna try to make this, I would assume.
Knee Smith is now three of three from the line.
He has scored 19 points in this fourth quarter for Indiana.
Remember, New York does not have any timeouts.
And I assume that Robinson's gonna take the ball
out of bounds, because he's the worst free throw shooter.
They can't sub anyone in.
Or he's just gonna run down the floor,
because you can't grab him.
One point game, hard to inbound.
Brunson's got it.
Oh, throws it away, but kicked up right there.
Ananobi, and quickly fouled by Siakam.
But of course, if he misses one of them,
there's nothing you can't foul.
They're gonna just play it out.
With 2.35 left in the fourth,
it was a 14-point lead for the Knicks, 119-14.
And a missed free throw right there.
Ananobi.
We've seen Halliburton be special in these moments.
We talked about that, right?
Brunson, Halliburton, one possession game.
We wanna see magic.
What better place here than in Broadway?
Two-point game.
Indiana with it.
Halliburton.
He'll take it.
He'll backpedal, a three for the win.
And goal!
He's got it!
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
After a few, the ruling on the floor is confirmed.
It's a good two-point basket, 2.9.
Such a great free throw shooter down the stretch.
This seems like one of those games, guys,
where it's whoever has the ball last is gonna win it.
Towns is out.
Mitchell Robinson has checked in for New York
and 40 points for Brunson.
It's a one-point New York lead.
Approaching a minute to play in overtime.
There's a switch with Brunson on New York.
Nice ball rotation.
Halliburton fakes.
This is a three.
Oh, and slammed in by Toppen.
One-point Indiana lead.
Well, Indiana finally missed a three,
and that didn't do New York any good.
Here's Brunson.
He's one of five from three tonight,
but hitting on every other metric.
Makes a move, makes a fake, splits the D,
and cuts it to goal!
He is so good.
See how low he put the ball once he split the defense?
There's a reason he was the clutch player of the year.
Nix by one.
Halliburton with the ball.
There's the screen.
Now the switch.
Inside.
That's for two, and Indiana recaptures the lead.
Put up and in that time by Nembhard.
Bigger body on him.
And I'm really surprised
they do not have Miles Turner in the game.
I know what they're thinking is being able to switch things,
but I like that ring protection of Miles Turner.
And an OB.
Brunson knocked out of bounds,
and knocked out there by Nembhard.
We've had 14 lead changes,
and seven have come in overtime,
and timeout, Indiana, for a challenge.
Aggressive going for a steal once the ball comes in,
because at the worst, they call a foul,
and they take it out again.
Surprised, though, New York's not gonna put anybody
on the ball.
They made that inbounds very easy.
Here comes Taubman.
Got it!
Timeout, New York, 15.3.
Pacers by three, 15.3 in overtime.
And here's Brunson, picked up by Nembhard.
Down by three.
Here is a three for the tie.
Short, caught by Hart.
Out to Towns to tie.
No!
Rebound, fought for, loose.
Bridges has got it.
Clock is ticking.
Out of bounds.
It's Indiana's ball with .2 to go.
Coach, you are just throwing salt in the wound here, Coach.
I'm just giving him the ball.
That's what he's doing.
That's exactly what he did.
And Towns fired it, and the game is over,
and Indiana has won, coming back,
and captured game one of the Eastern Conference Finals
on the road in the gardens.
