After a wild, last-second Tyrese Haliburton shot sent the game to overtime, the Indiana Pacers stunned the New York Knicks, 138-135, to take Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals.

The Knicks defeated the Boston Celtics in the other Eastern Conference semifinal series, 4-2. Jalen Brunson has been stellar for New York, averaging 28.8 points per game. The trio of Brunson, Karl-Anthony Towns and Mikal Bridges have all been key to getting the Knicks to this series.

The Indiana Pacers beat the New York Knicks 138-135 in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals in overtime. It brought back striking memories to the Pacers' 93-86 victory against the Knicks in Game 5 of the 1994 Eastern Conference finals – when Reggie Miller led an incredible comeback and taunted Spike Lee.
