Pacers' Tyrese Haliburton rubs it in with ‘I Run New York' video mocking Knicks fans
Tyrese Haliburton appears to be enjoying his victory lap over the Knicks.
The Pacers' point guard already clapped back at Ben Stiller Saturday night after his team eliminated the Knicks from the Eastern Conference Finals.
Sunday afternoon, Haliburton took it a step further, sharing a 54-second video to 50 Cent's 'I Run New York' of interspersing his highlights from the series with footage of Knicks fans during postgame victory celebrations outside Madison Square Garden.

Some of the footage also shows Knicks fans throwing garbage bags at Pacers fan Hans Perez, who is wearing a Haliburton jersey.
Knicks fans certainly talked the talk over the last month as Seventh Avenue turned into a party after every win. Their team, unfortunately, didn't walk the walk, failing to stop Haliburton and the Pacers for the second straight season.

''cers in 6,' Haliburton wrote as the caption, appearing to mock the 'Knicks in six' chant that was prevalent when New York beat the Celtics in six games.
While Haliburton has every right to gloat, his focus will need to turn to the NBA Finals soon, as the Pacers are prohibitive underdogs against the Thunder.

That's nothing new for Indiana, which upset the Cavaliers and Knicks to get this far and which has been underestimated at every turn this postseason.
Nevertheless, the 68-win Thunder are a different animal than anything the Pacers have seen in the East, and have operated with ruthless efficiency all postseason.
Game 1 of the Finals is Thursday night.
