NEW YORK -

After a historic individual performance in Game 4, he is focused on ending the Eastern Conference Finals in style on May 29 (May 30, Singapore time) when the Pacers visit the New York Knicks at the famed Madison Square Garden leading 3-1.

"I'm excited about it," Haliburton said. "It will be a lot of fun. It's a tough environment to play in. We've got to be ready. It's one more game."

Haliburton's outing for the ages included 32 points, 15 assists and 12 rebounds without a turnover, the first time a player achieved a 30-15-10-0 statistics line in NBA post-season history.

He also made five three-pointers and had four steals in the 130-121 home triumph.

Haliburton's propensity for running the floor is proving to be a huge advantage for fourth-seeded Indiana.
