00:00Milwaukee led by as many as 17 points in that opening half.
00:04Now, the Pacers did battle back to really take a lead in the second half
00:08and even in the fourth quarter, but it was Tyrese Halliburton
00:11equalizing late in regulation, about 10 ticks remaining.
00:15Sends the game to overtime.
00:16Milwaukee builds up a lead again.
00:18Gary Trent Jr., 12 points in that extra session.
00:22And Milwaukee led by 7, 118, 111, with fewer than 40 seconds remaining.
00:28We were getting ready for game number six inside the Pfizer Forum.
00:32The Pacers had other ideas.
00:34A couple of clutch shots from Indiana down the stretch.
00:38A couple of awful turnovers from Gary Trent Jr.
00:42And Tyrese Halliburton takes advantage.
00:44The game-winning layup with about two seconds remaining in overtime.
00:49And Indiana wins game five in its opening round series over Milwaukee,
00:53119, 118 in one of the most dramatic comebacks you will ever see
00:59in NBA playoff action.
01:01And we do have a lot of questions that need to be answered
01:05once the official offseason starts,
01:07where what is Milwaukee going to do next year with their squad?
01:10The one thing that you liked about Giannis is way back
01:12when they were starting to build the championship-caliber squad,
01:15he said, I'm only resigning back here.
01:16It's like LeBron James in Cleveland.
01:18If I have full control over this roster and money is no object to get me who I need,
01:23which includes players like Damian Lillard,
01:24who probably won't even be there next year.
01:26But those are going to come.
01:28But let's focus on this game.
01:29Because you had players that stepped up outside of Damian Lillard not being there.
01:33I told you yesterday, extra shots are going to be available.
01:35I told you, Gary Trent Jr. is going to score 33,
01:37and Giannis is going to have 30, 20, and 13, and they lost this game.
01:41You know what it takes?
01:41An epic collapse, which is exactly what happened in that overtime period.
01:45You do have to give credit to the Pacers for waking up because Milwaukee was here for it.
01:49And sometimes those are the best ways to bet.
01:51Now, granted, if you just said, I'm going to take Milwaukee with the points yesterday,
01:54you did cash in that ticket.
01:55But we always like to see, hey, I'm an underdog.
01:58How are you going to perform when everything looks like it's lost right away in the opponent's building?
02:0330 to 13 right off the bat.
02:04We're already heading back to a game number six.
02:06This game looks like it's over.
02:08You know, make it a little bit closer at the half.
02:10Exciting third quarter.
02:10Exciting fourth quarter.
02:11Exciting overtime.
02:12Which the Pacers were the better overall team, and they should have been.
02:15Once Lillard got that injury.
02:16The Bucs fought, but maybe they just had Doc Rivers, who doesn't have a lot of success
02:20in the playoffs, and he gets bounced out in round one again.
02:23Tough scene for Milwaukee.
02:24They weren't a great team entering into the playoffs, but they did show some heart here
02:27in that final game.
02:28He just let it slip in overtime.
