It was Aaron Nesmith’s historic 30-point scoring outburst that got the Pacers the win in Game 1. In arguably the best performance of his career, he hit six three-pointers in the fourth quarter to muscle a seventeen-point comeback, leaving the MSG crowd in absolute disbelief. With that, he became the first and only player to knock down six threes in the final quarter of a playoff game. However, since that night, Nesmith has been unable to replicate that form. And concerns grew when he played only sixteen minutes in Game 5.
