INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - Reggie Miller's farewell party was almost perfect. After hearing celebrities laud 18 stellar seasons with Indiana, Miller's final regular-season game had a familiar ring he sparked a fourth-quarter rally to lead the Pacers past Chicago 85-83 Wednesday night.
Afterward, Miller, who is retiring after this season, thanked the fans for helping him grow up and choked back tears when team owner Herb Simon gave him a parting gift a Bentley.
"As much as you think I've given to you for 18 years, I'm truly blessed to be a Pacer and a Hoosier," Miller said, his voice cracking. "Thank you."
