Austin Reaves on Tyrese Haliburton, with whom he played on @usabasketball: “I told D-Lo before the season started that if they’re competing in the East, I think Tyrese has a chance to win an MVP at some point. The way he plays, the unselfishness, he makes his teammates better.” – 12:14 AM

“This is the start, playing for something real,” Tyrese Haliburton said.
The Pacers have their sites on Saturday’s inaugural NBA Cup, and their coach has an even loftier vision.
“Winning an NBA title is a dream that’s reachable,” said Rick Carlisle.

The play that set Tyrese Halliburton up for that dagger three?
An offensive rebound.
Who would have thought that — of all things — the Pacers would outrebound the Bucks, 50-46, in the In-Season Tournament semifinal tonight?
What a performance from Haliburton and the Pacers. – 7:41 PM

Pacers disposed of the Bucks 128-119, now 6-0 in the tourney and headed to the title game against winner of Lakers/Pelicans.
They’re guaranteed $200K; title is worth $500K bonus.
Pacers made key hustle plays late, then Haliburton (27-7-15) made a clutch 3. Turner had 26/10. – 7:41 PM

I think Nikola Jokic is the clear MVP so far and if he keeps this up he should win.
But we know how MVP narratives work and someone is going to be presented as the challenger. It’s really feeling like that player is going to be Tyrese Haliburton. – 7:38 PM

If Giannis Antetokounmpo and Lillard get more reps together and show off more of the options created by their pick-and-roll chemistry, defenses will be forced to leave in fear of what the Bucks can do as a team. And that will sow doubt into opposing defenses. “It’ll soften them up,” Damian Lillard said. “It always does. It’s not like you’re throwing to a decent player in the middle. Like the moment (Giannis) decides, ‘All right, I hit him a couple of times, got a couple of makes,’ even when they thinking about it, in that split second of them pausing or freezing or whatever, that’s enough. So, you gotta be willing to play that mind game with them and just soften them up just that little bit. “Like, for me, the moment I come off and the big has some hesitation to be at the level of the screen, the ball is gone. It’s going to be in the air. It’s when they get up there early and I can’t even get off the screen and get into a shot, but the moment that they’re not at the level, it’s gone. So, it doesn’t have to be like, ‘Oh we’re just getting back to our man.’ It’s like that split second. A little bit. And like, right now I’m not even making my three. Like, bro, the scariest thing is that we’re (15-6) right now, and we’re trying to figure it all out. And I haven’t even gotten started, bro. I promise you.” -via The Athletic / December 7, 2023
