00:00after the disaster that was the fourth quarter in the final six minutes of regulation
00:05against the indiana pacers in game number one donnie to your request yeah we do have some b-roll
00:13in black and white the angel that's not for tyree's however by the way that's for the 17 point
00:20tyree's did not actually choke tyree's was just doing the choking sign he is doing quite well
00:32entering game number two so ahead of game number two tonight jy of course we go back quickly
00:38into game number one it was almost such a historic comeback you're watching it play out but you don't
00:45believe it's real you don't believe what you're seeing in erin a smith going or erin e smith going
00:50nuclear and tyree's halliburton with a shot off the heel high up into the msg sky and coming back down
00:57inside the cylinder you don't almost don't believe what you are seeing with your very eyes what went
01:04wrong for new york what was indiana able to muster up to pull off that historic comeback in nba playoff
01:11history yeah i mean listen it reminds me of the reggie miller 25 points in the fourth quarter of
01:19game five in the 94 uh eastern conference finals when the last time an indiana pacer did the choke
01:26sign i'm sure reggie miller who did the game on tnt was thoroughly enjoying it you could tell by him
01:32and van gunny they love the fact to see the knicks choke but when you look at it ben there's a couple
01:37things number one you got to make shots right and erin naismith got absolutely nuclear i don't think
01:43i've seen it in the garden since that reggie miller uh game five and every three got bigger and bigger
01:49and what you saw with naismith was just the ability to get a shot off now for the next part they did
01:56everything and when i mean everything wrong they did everything wrong number one you get the lead in the
02:03fourth quarter with who jalen brunson on the bench with five fouls deuce mcbride mitchell robson who i think
02:10will have a bigger role deuce as well in this series but you saw them collapse in regards to brunson
02:17just pounding the ball into the pavement two there was you know people keep looking at brunson
02:22i want to put the hot spot on og and anobi really quick there were two occasions that there were screen
02:28set and og and anobi who never plays drop coverage guarding a ball screen was in drop coverage and
02:34natesman got two threes off where if you're new york you get them off the three-point line and you
02:39get them to the basket at least you're trading ben uh two for twos instead of two for threes right
02:44then there was the most egregious play that no one wants to talk about is nicks up five they break the
02:51press and jalen brunson who could circle the dribble out and get to the foul line and get fouled
02:57probably burn another three four five seconds off the clock getting it inside of 30 seconds decides to
03:03go for the layup gets it to og i don't care about the foul no cal foul catch the damn ball we don't have
03:10to worry about it so there's all of that but then it takes it a miraculous shot by a haliburton which
03:16he could practice that shot 5 000 times anybody knows basketball knows that you don't hit that ball
03:20there hit it that high off the rim and it dropped down like that it happens once in a lifetime well
03:26that was his once that he got so for the next you got to move on and just like me as a fan you have
03:31to move on and you have to be confident that they're going to play better tonight i think timbs has got to
03:36get away from the julius randall ball that that we saw in the atlanta severs years ago which is just
03:40give it to your best player and say bail me out they have to do a much better job of sharing getting
03:46everybody the ball and most importantly defending the three-point line
03:49you
