    <div class="quote_poster">Quoting Big Nasty:</div><div class="quote_post">ATLANTA (AP) -- This was vintage Reggie Miller. He played to the crowd, goaded defenders into fouls, complained constantly to the referees and made clutch shots down the stretch.

    Miller hit a go-ahead 3-pointer and added two free throws in the final minute, helping the Indiana Pacers hold off the Atlanta Hawks 100-97 Monday.

    No longer the first option on offense for Indiana, Miller struggled most of the game, missing five of his first seven shots. But with the score tied at 93, Miller made an open 3 with the shot clock winding down.

    His free throws with 5.1 seconds left put the Pacers back up by three, and they hung on from there.

    "We just wanted to grind this one out," Miller said. "It could have been a let up game for us."</div>

    Just goes to show, Miller won't end up like Glen Rice. He'll retain his shooting ability and remain the clutch king that he defined all those years ago. Good work Miller, keep it up, I know you'll keep help pulling in the wins for the Pacers.
