Nembhard's 'unbelievable' late 31-footer fuels Pacers' win over Knicks

INDIANAPOLIS -- In a series being defined by bodies crashing to the court, gamesmanship with the referees and clutch shot-making, it was a miracle heave that now looms largest.It tied the longest shot of Nembhard's career and was hardly a thing of beauty, he rushed it as he was feverishly stepping back to find room and nearly fumbled the ball as he went up. But as it swished through, igniting the hometown crowd, it became series-altering.

"Haliburton had the ball and he had it going pretty good, double team," Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau said."We had a good rotation, he made a really good shot." "At the end of the day, he shouldn't have got that shot cause we should have got a rebound," said Knicks guardAs with the first two games, there was an officiating controversy, though it was more mild. With just over two minutes left and the game tied, Hart was on a breakaway after a steal. But Pacers centerReplays showed Turner might've made the block a split second after the ball touched the backboard. It was not reviewed.
