After the Pacers Game 1 win against the Knicks, Reggie Miller was seen giving a nod of approval to Tyrese Haliburton.

After a clutch Game 1 performance at MSG, Tyrese Haliburton drew comparisons to Reggie Miller from Chris Broussard.

And just like Reggie Miller nearly three decades ago, the Pacers used a sharpshooter (Aaron Nesmith) to stun the Knicks again. Miller's spurt was quick, eight points in almost no time at all. Nesmith had about three minutes to work with, but he scored even more. The Pacers trailed 116-102 with 3:14 left.

With All-Stars Jalen Brunson and Tyrese Haliburton now leading the way, take a moment to revisit the history of a rivalry that helped shape the NBA's Eastern Conference.

The New York Knicks and Indiana Pacers meet again in the NBA playoffs for the 2025 Eastern Conference finals. It's another chapter in their rivalry.

Tyrese Haliburton and Co. are the first team to overcome four 17-point and three seven-point deficits in the same playoff run.
