INDIANAPOLIS - Indiana's Reggie Miller, who electrified the near-sellout crowd with an old-fashioned 3-pointer Wednesday, finished with 21 points and became the 13th player in NBA history to top 25,000 career points as he pushed the Pacers past San Antonio 100-93.Miller, who will retire after this season, has looked like anything but someone playing out the end of his remarkable 18-year career."It's a nice accomplishment, obviously, to do it in front of the home crowd," Miller said. "But more importantly, it keeps us in the playoff hunt."
