8 pointsReggie Miller
Reggie Miller once scored 8 points in the final 9 seconds to steal a playoff game.
On May 7, 1995, with Indiana trailing the Knicks 105-99 at Madison Square Garden and 18.7 seconds left, Miller hit a three, stole the inbounds pass, stepped back and hit another three, then — after John Starks missed two free throws — took the rebound off Patrick Ewing's miss, was fouled, and sank both free throws. The Pacers won 107-105.
Eight points in 8.9 seconds, in the playoffs, in the loudest road building in the league.
