Jeff Teague makes unreal 3-pointer, does MJ shrug (Video)

If you’ve missed the first three games of the Indiana Pacers-Atlanta Hawks series, this shot by Jeff Teague should give you an idea of how things have been going.

The Hawks, who by the way were 38-44 this season, are up 2-1 in their series with the 56-26 Pacers after winning 98-85 in Game 3 on Thursday night. One of the biggest plays came with 2:48 left when Teague made an off-balanced 3-pointer with a hand in his face as the shot clock was expiring.

It’s been that kind of series for Teague, who scored six more points in the game to finish with 22 and 10 assists.
