In my house, as Tyrese Haliburton’s game-tying shot hit the back of the rim, bounced 10 feet in the air, then fell softly through the net, I yelled “Are you kidding me” so loudly my family rushed into the room to make sure I was okay.
My reaction to the Pacers’ wild comeback Game 1 win is typical, and I don’t have a dog in this fight. The reaction around the NBA and sports world to Haliburton and the comeback win by the Indiana Pacers was the same, starting with Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark.
PACERS ARE THE GREATEST COMEBACK TEAM IVE EVER SEEN

Those people saying Haliburton was overrated I wonder what their sources were? 🤔🤔🤔🤔
