Mr. Clutch: Tyrese Haliburton keeps delivering in the ultimate moments for the Pacers
OKLAHOMA CITY -- You are Tyrese Haliburton. You went to the Eastern Conference finals last year and got swept. You went to the Olympics last summer and didn't play much. You came into this season with high expectations and your Indiana Pacers got off to a 10-15 start. And on top of that, some of your NBA peers evidently think you are overrated. You got angry. 'I think as a group, we take everything personal,' Haliburton said. 'It's not just me. It's everybody. I feel like that's the DNA of this group and that's not just me.' The anger fueled focus, the focus became confidence, and the confidence delivered a 1-0 series lead in the NBA Finals. Haliburton's penchant for last-second heroics — one of the stories of these playoffs — showed up again Thursday night, his jumper with 0.3 seconds left going into finals lore and giving the Pacers a 111-110 win over the heavily favored Oklahoma City Thunder. The Pacers led for 0.0001% of that game. It was enough. 'When it comes to the moments, he wants the ball,' Pacers teammate Myles Turner said. 'He wants to be the one to hit that shot. He doesn't shy away from the moment and it's very important this time of the year to have a go-to guy. He just keeps finding a way and we keep putting the ball in the right positions and the rest is history.' Haliburton is 4 for 4 in the final 2 seconds of fourth quarters and overtimes in these playoffs, all of those shots either giving the Pacers a win or sending a game into OT before they won it there. The rest of the NBA, in those situations this spring: 4 for 26, combined. If Haliburton takes one of those beat-the-clock shots in the first three quarters of games in these playoffs, he's a mere mortal, just 1 for 7 in those situations. But with the game on the line, he's perfect. 'You don't want to live and die with the best player on the other team taking a game winner with a couple seconds left,' Thunder guard Alex Caruso said. No, especially when that best player on the other team is Haliburton. Just ask Milwaukee. Or Cleveland. Or New York. They could have all told Oklahoma City who was going to take the big shot and what was probably going to happen. Against the Bucks on April 29, it was a layup with 1.4 seconds left that capped a rally from seven points down in the final 34.6 seconds of overtime. Final score: Pacers 119, Bucks 118, and that series ended there. In Cleveland on May 6, it was a 3-pointer with 1.1 seconds left for a 120-119 win — capping a rally from seven points down in the final 48 seconds. At Madison Square Garden against the Knicks on May 21, a game the Pacers trailed 121-112 with 51.1 seconds left, he hit a jumper with no time left to force OT and Indiana would win again. All those plays came with a little something extra. His father, John Haliburton, got a little too exuberant with Giannis Antetokounmpo after the Bucks game and wasn't allowed to come to the next few games; the ban has since been lifted. Haliburton did a certain dance that the NBA doesn't like much after the shot against the Cavs. He made a choke signal, a la what Pacers legend Reggie Miller did against New York a generation earlier, after hitting the shot against the Knicks. But on Thursday, all business. These finals are a long way from over, and he knows it. Game 2 is Sunday night in Oklahoma City. 'Again, another big comeback but there's a lot more work to do,' Haliburton said. 'That's just one game. And this is the best team in the NBA, and they don't lose often. So, we expect them to respond. We've got to be prepared for that. We got a couple days to watch film, see where we can get better.' Haliburton is in his first year of a supermax contract that will pay him about $245 million along the way. He has the Olympic gold medal from last summer and surely will be a serious candidate to play for USA Basketball again at the Los Angeles Games in 2028. He's now a two-time All-NBA selection. And he's officially a certified postseason, late-game hero. Three more wins, and he'll be an NBA champion as well. The anger is gone. Haliburton was all smiles after Game 1, for obvious reasons. 'Ultimate, ultimate confidence in himself,' Turner said. 'Some players will say they have it but there's other players that show it, and he's going to let you know about it, too. That's one of the things I respect about him. He's a baller and a hooper and really just a gamer.' And in his NBA Finals debut, Haliburton reminded the world that's the case. 'This group never gives up," Haliburton said. 'We never believe that the game is over until it hits zero, and that's just the God's honest truth. That's just the confidence that we have as a group, and I think that's a big reason why this is going on.'

Should the Boston Celtics try to get Stanford big Maxime Raynaud in the 2025 NBA draft?
Should the Boston Celtics try to select Stanford big man Maxime Raynaud in the 2025 NBA draft? The 7-foot-1 center is a bit older than many prospects who are projected to go in the first round of the draft or near it, but for the purposes of a Celtics squad looking to get players capable of playing at least some time at the NAB level right out of the gate, that may actually be a bit of a plus. The 22-year-old is a solid rebounder and rim protector who can also hit a shot at a good rate from beyond the arc, and makes up for a shorter wingspan with his natural height and smart positioning on the court. Advertisement The hosts of the CLNS Media "How Bout Them Celtics!" podcast, Jack Simone and Sam LaFrance, took some time on a recent episode of their show to talk over the wisdom of drafting Raynaud. Check it out below!

Shaquille O'Neal says he'd average 50 points per game if he played in today's NBA
Shaquille O'Neal says he'd average 50 points per game if he played in today's NBA Back in the day, Shaquille O'Neal was the most feared player in the NBA, and many would say he was the most dominant player the league has ever seen, especially when one tries to compare eras. He led the league in scoring average twice and averaged over 26 points a game in 10 straight seasons, and he ended up making 15 All-Star teams and winning four championships. Most of his best years came with the Los Angeles Lakers, the team he spent eight seasons with beginning in the 1996-97 campaign. The game was played differently back then, as teams played at a very slow pace and more physicality was allowed by referees. There is a false perception that, while the game is faster-paced and less physical today, the NBA has become soft and that it is too easy to score. O'Neal seemed to agree with this opinion when he claimed on a recent podcast appearance that he would've averaged 50 points a game in today's league had he been in his prime (h/t Lakers Daily). 'Somebody asked me the other day what would I average — I would average 50,' O'Neal said. 'And the reason why I'd average 50 'cause I don't do what everybody else is doing. You shoot a 3 on me, Joker (Nikola Jokic), you better [expletive] make it because I'ma run right by you and stand in the middle of the lane and watch you and your whole [expletive] team go, 'Three seconds, three seconds, three seconds!' And Penny [Hardaway] gonna push that [expletive] and throw it, and I'ma dunk it. And I know for a fact I'll make 15 2s before you make 10 3s. 'I'm getting 30. I'm getting 30 every night. And then now when you foul somebody, it's a flagrant, so guys don't really wanna foul you hard. … That's another 10 points right there, and then I'ma concentrate on the [expletive] free throw, get that elbow there — that's 45 points right there. 'Oh, Shaq couldn't play in this league.' Shaq ain't known for defense. Okay, Joker, you can hit a 3, but again, I'ma run right by you, and I'ma seal my [expletive] in the lane, and ain't nobody moving me 'cause you know why? If you move me, you make my mama move out of her house, and that [expletive] ain't gonna happen.' This is certainly a high-scoring era in the NBA. During the 2024-25 regular season, teams averaged 113.8 points a game, and 13 of the league's 30 teams averaged over 100 possessions per game. By comparison, during the 1999-2000 campaign, when O'Neal won his lone MVP award, only one team averaged over 100 possessions a game, and only seven teams averaged even 100 points per game. But anyone — even O'Neal — averaging 50 points a game today would be a very tall order. The only player to ever do so was Wilt Chamberlain during the 1961-62 season. There were many more possessions back then than there are today, and teams averaged 118.8 points per contest. In addition, team defensive schemes were very much in their infancy. O'Neal's high-water mark in scoring was 29.7 points per game during that magical 1999-2000 campaign. That was the year in which O'Neal and the late great Kobe Bryant led the Lakers to the first of three straight NBA championships.
