Here comes Holiday White block from behind by Halliburton watch
him at the end of this play because he doesn't
feel Siam at all. He's going to look a
little to Jrue Holiday like communicate to me here that
he's behind me. They're going to challenge the foul
on Sam. Siam closes tatum spins away, falling
away jumper Katter. Oh, he is so good
at that. Halliburton chasing White. White continues down
a lane up to Tatum, sidestep three pointer,
puts it up three and it's the other j here
in Ot Jason Tatum two man action with Derick White
again. You've got Nem Hard and Halliburton, those
are your two defenders. They're going to use Tatum
as a screener. He creates separation. White delivers
on time on target. Big time shot from Jason
Tatum Horford against Jalen Smith Smith. A lot of
physical play count it and a foul Smith tried his
best and Horford just kept going and going. He
seemed a little hesitant. Tatum said, no,
you got it man. You got it go one
on one and take advantage. 17th year. He
started virtually his entire career and now they have a
meeting to start the year for the Pacers their first
conference final in 10 years over on the first possession
. Tatum throws it ahead to Brown. Brown throws
it down and takes a tough tumble. Halliburton trying
to create some space faked do. Brown fires up
a three. It's gonna Tyrese Halliburton again, way
outside trying to get free throw it in the corner
. Brown fakes fires up the three. Jaylen Brown
knocks down the three to tie the game that can
hurt you is a three. You see a lot
of guys guarding inside the three. Why? Because
then you're a little bit late to close still a
contest. JJ and he's actually well positioned incredible shot
making by Jalen Brown and with the separation that was
created initially on that screen, siam wasn't in position
to make the quick foul looks like he got his
hand and his face out of the way of Jalen
Brown. Look II I said this earlier. Middleton
hit a three right back as tatum repost spin move
quickness and a foul tatum. A dunk got hit
from behind and a chance for a three point play
between checking Jalen Brown and Jason tatum, the tough
spin move from tatum. But if you're Obi toppin
, like what a responsibility to have here in the
second quarter guarding these two incredible offensive players, just
great feel from Jason for where that defender is and
Obi you're working hard. Uh but you've got Nim
hard looking Halliburton four seconds long three pointer. That's
good. Tyree Halliburton from way downtown and ties the
game again. Halliburton gonna have to launch. It
goes up and under. Oh, he backs it
in, he banks it in at the buzzer.
Oh, Indiana again showing resiliency. Boston takes a
big lead in this quarter. They battle back.
They cut it down to one. Tyrese Halliburton with
the acrobatic.
