NBA East Finale: Tyrese Haliburton Reggie Miller Nod; Knicks crumbled late

The final of the Eastern Conference tipped over with an epic game 1 as No. 4 Indiana Pacers required overtime to beat No. 3 -seeds New York Knicks in Madison Square Garden.

The Knicks want to reach the final for the first time since 1999. In this off -season, New York was removed the No. 6 seeds Detroit Pistons and then handled with No. 2 Boston Celtics.

In the meantime, the Pacers have been trying to get back to the final since their last appearance in 2000. Indiana dropped the No. 5 Milwaukee Bucks before they disturbed No. 1 Cleveland Cavaliers.

Here is what has been emphasized by the epic game of the Pacers victory of game 1 and what you can expect from game 2.

________________________________________________

Game 1: Pacers 138, Knicks 135 (OT)

What noticed for the Pacers: The Pacers did what the Pacers do. They stormed back from a 14-point deficit in the fourth quarter to force overtime when Tyrese-Haliburton at the end of the regulation creates a 23-foot crash jumper at the Summer to connect the score with 125-125-with Reggie Millers famous Madison after 31 years. Andrew Nembhard then had seven points in the extension in 3-against-4 shootings to win the Pacers. This Pacers team does not give up and Haliburton has made a name for itself with several Summerbeagerers in this off-season. What is that again to be overrated?

What noticed for the Knicks: In a game with 14 leadership changes and eight ties, it looked as if the Knicks had taken control when they took over a lead of 14 points in the fourth quarter, which marked the first double -digit leadership of the game. But the Pacers stormed behind 30 points from Nesmith on 9-against-13 shootings, including 8-against-9 from Beyond The Arc and Haliburton's 31-point performance of 11 points. Although Jalen Brunson scored 43 points and Karl Anthony cities with 35 points and 12 rebounds, the Knicks could not contain the Pacers in the clutch. In the extension, the Knicks only had six field goal attempts while the Pacers 11 had.

What is in stock for game 2: Hopefully more of it. Two coarse-grained teams fight in an incredible nail biter. For the Knicks, you cannot lose weight from the gas against the Pacers, who carried out a 20: 6 run in the fourth quarter. The Knicks also need more from their reserves, which were exceeded by the Pacers' Bank with 31-17. The Knicks also ended with 14 sales compared to the Pacers 6.

As for the Pacers, it would be a good start not to put Haliburton into a position to make a game winner. You also have to find a way to contain Brunson and Towns that have teamed up for 78 points.
