Chicago Bulls @ Indiana Pacers | 1998 Playoffs | ECF Game 3: Reggie saves the day

A limping Reggie Miller scored 13 of his 28 points in the last 4 1 / 2 minutes and the Indiana Pacers survived a furious late rally by the Chicago Bulls and climbed back into the Eastern Conference Finals with a 107-105 victory in game three. "I went to Mike's mouth in the middle of the third quarter," said Miller. Clearly hobbled, but Miller made three three-pointers, a 20-footer that beat the shot clock and the clinching free throws in the final 4.11. He was the only Pacer Gatefrom the field in the last 6 1 / 2 minutes. "It was a game on the loose," said Miller. "I knew I could not drive, so I basically just played from their mistakes." Miller made 9-of-15 shots, including 4-of-7 behind the arc. Indiana Bank held 43-25 scoring advantage, including 20-6 over the final 13-plus minutes. "He said he could go," said Pacers coach Larry Bird. "He put everything on the line and went in and hit the big shots." Michael Jordan scored 30 points and ScottiePippen added 23 for the Bulls, which suffered its first road loss of the season, and taken a five-game winning streak. Chicago trimmed eight-point gap to 103-102 in just over a minute, but Rose and Davis each made a pair of clutch free throws from Miller sealed it. "He was injured and I do not know why we do not go to him," said Bulls guard Ron Harper. "We had a chance in this game and we know we let slip a golden opportunity."
