Indiana Pacers tickets

"He's kind of like a superhero. He's going to do something to save the day, whether it's one basket or 15 baskets." Teammate Jermaine O'Neal on Reggie Miller's traditionally elevated level of play in the postseason.No one in NBA history has made more 3-point baskets than Reggie Miller of the Indiana Pacersnews and facts, and few can match the wiry guard for quantity of clutch shots in a career. For the better part of 17 seasons, it has been "Miller Time" whenever Indiana has needed a big bucket. Biography of Miller, Reggie was born in Riverside, California with a hip deformity that caused severely splayed feet. He wore leg braces for the first four years of his life. Some doctors wondered whether he would ever walk on his own. Reggie not only walked, he had to sprint to keep up with his athletic siblings, including big sister Cheryl, once the premier women's basketball player in the country.

Undeterred by chants of "Cheryl's better!" during his UCLA career, Reggie became a star in his own right. He finished his college career as the second-leading scorer in Bruins history, behind only Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Indiana drafted him 11th overall in 1987. By his third season, it was apparent Miller was destined to exceed the expectations of those who thought he was too scrawny to star in the NBA. He posted the first of his record 15 consecutive years with 100 or more made 3-pointers. Miller became the first Pacer ever to start in an NBA All-Star Game in 1994-95. He made the All-NBA Third Team that same season and repeated the feat in two of the next three years. He consistently finishes at or near the top of the league in free-throw accuracy (.886 career).

It was in the 1994 playoffs, though, that Miller truly emerged by leading the Pacers to their first-ever series wins and taking on the Knicks (and their most vocal fan, Spike Lee) in a memorable Eastern Conference finals. Miller later took the Pacers to the 2000 NBA Finals. His late trey in the 2004 Eastern Conference finals gave Indiana a Game 1 win over Detroit, but a return trip to the championship series was not in store. "All I need to have is a half-second of daylight," Miller noted. "Law of averages. You're either a hero or a goat." Miller consistently winds up the former.
