New York Knicks fans were reminded of their longstanding disdain for Reggie Miller when Pacers’ Tyrese Haliburton donned a hoodie adorned with Miller’s infamous choking gesture following the Pacers’ win over the Knicks in the series finale.
Haliburton’s fashion choice raised eyebrows among Knicks faithful, with the hoodie serving as a subtle reminder of Miller’s iconic performance in 1995. Despite speculation surrounding the motive behind his attire, Haliburton downplayed its significance, attributing it to a preference for comfort during travel.
Pacers’ Triumph and Haliburton’s Contribution
In a historic victory at Madison Square Garden, the Pacers secured the only road win of the series, with Haliburton playing a pivotal role in the team’s success. The 24-year-old guard delivered an impressive performance, tallying 26 points, 4 rebounds, and 6 assists, showcasing his versatility and skill on the court.
With their sights set on the conference finals against the Celtics, Haliburton and the Pacers aim to build on their momentum and continue their postseason journey. Despite a slight dip in performance in the last two games, Haliburton’s return to form bodes well for the team as they prepare for their upcoming challenge.
As the Pacers gear up for their clash with the Celtics, Haliburton’s leadership and on-court prowess will be essential factors in their quest for victory. Fans can anticipate an intense and competitive series as both teams vie for a coveted spot in the NBA Finals.
