We have nothing to celebrate. Jalen Rose added 21 points for the Pacers, who will play the winner of the Miami-New York series. Miller took over in the third quarter. Travis Best made a pair of free throws as Indiana took its biggest lead to that point, 85-69, after three quarters. He turned and stared at the 76ers' bench following the shot.
Looks say a thousand words.
Philadelphia didn't get any closer than 14 the rest of the way. Sometimes, if you want something done right, you have to do it yourself. Overcoming Miami's relentless defense and their own self-doubts after a miserable first half, the Knicks rallied past Miami to force a deciding Game 7 on Sunday. Total fouls-Indiana 20, Philadelphia 20. Total fouls-Miami 24, New York 26.
