Up by as many as 20 points early on, it looked like Tyrese Haliburton and the Indiana Pacers were on their way to another victory Sunday. However, thanks to stellar play from Karl-Anthony Towns, the New York Knicks managed to keep their season alive. Following another massive comeback, one former player called out the Pacers star.
Indiana had full control of the game heading halftime, but their vice grip slowly dwindled in the second half. This opened the door for New York to complete another 20-point comeback this postseason, which they took full advantage of. None of it would have been possible if it wasn’t for Towns, who scored 20 of his 24 points in the fourth quarter.
While appearing on Shannon Sharpe’s Nightcap podcast after the game, former Pacers star Jermaine O’Neal gave his thoughts on another exciting matchup between these teams. He zeroed in on Tyrese Haliburton, stating that the All-Star guard tends to fade into the background too often.
