I’ll say it again: Tyrese Haliburton’s voted by her peers as “the highest-rated player in the league” is the worst case in league history. #nbafinals

We probably saw the best clutch player of all time in Tyrese Haliburton

I’ve never witnessed a crunched time killer in one season like Halliburton did.

Halliburton is the only star to be judged by his excellent game. He will have other stars’ games at random, but there is no 1 point, but because he has some great games, they call him the top 10 offensive player in the league.

NBA fans watched Tyrese Haliburton and The Pacers complete the playoffs’ most ridiculous comeback and talked seriously about “ratings” before the finals.
This is the same. I can’t imagine caring for whom I haven’t seen it.
