Mr. Clutch: Tyrese Haliburton keeps delivering in the ultimate moments for the Pacers
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — 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.' ___

Tyrese Haliburton strikes again. Pacers' dirty word? Turnovers. Chet Holmgren disappears.
Tyrese Haliburton strikes again. Pacers' dirty word? Turnovers. Chet Holmgren disappears. Show Caption Hide Caption Pacers and Thunder NBA Finals is better than it's 'small-market' billing USA TODAY Sports' Jeff Zillgitt breaks down the star-studded NBA Finals between the Indiana Pacers and Oklahoma City Thunder. Sports Pulse If Game 1 of the 2025 NBA Finals was any indication of what the rest of the series holds, hoops fans should be delighted. The Indiana Pacers stole Game 1 from the Oklahoma City Thunder, 111-110, on Tyrese Haliburton's thrilling game-winning jumper with 0.3 seconds left. For the Pacers, it was yet another comeback victory from a deficit of at least 15 points, their fifth of the 2025 postseason. Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led all players with 38 points on 14-of-30 shooting, while Indiana forward Pascal Siakam paced his team with 19 points and 10 rebounds. The Pacers had six players, including all five starters, reach double-figures in scoring. OPINION: Pacers teach Thunder hard lesson in NBA Finals Game 1. You cannot count them out. MORE: Tyrese Haliburton game-winners: Pacers star has been hero throughout 2025 NBA playoffs The winners and losers from Game 1 of the 2025 NBA Finals between the Indiana Pacers and Oklahoma City Thunder: WINNERS Tyrese Haliburton, Mr. Clutch, strikes again This was a good — not great — game for Pacers All-Star point guard Tyrese Haliburton. Held in check for most of the game, Haliburton shined brightest in the clutch, as he has all season. Haliburton finished with 14 points, 10 rebounds and six assists, but his game-winning, 21-foot jumper over Thunder guard Cason Wallace is what makes him a singular talent. WATCH: Tyrese Haliburton's game-winning shot in NBA Finals Game 1 This season, Haliburton is 13-of-15 (86.7%) on shots inside the final two minutes (including overtime) to tie or take the lead. He has scored 32 points across those 15 attempts, giving him 2.13 points per shot attempt in such scenarios. In the postseason alone, Haliburton is 6-of-7 (85.7%) on shots inside the final two minutes to tie or take the lead. The Pacers clamp down on defense Much of the attention from the wild Pacers comeback will go to its up-tempo offense in the fourth quarter. Don't sleep on Indiana's defense. Despite being put in compromising spots because of their 25 turnovers, the Pacers hustled back on defense and recovered in transition. That's why the Thunder were never able to ignite on debilitating runs; despite losing the turnover battle 25-7, Indiana ceded just 11 points off those giveaways, compared to the four the Pacers scored. In the final two-and-a-half minutes, the Pacers gave up just two points. They held the Thunder to just 1-of-6 shooting in that span. Andrew Nembhard As he has throughout this postseason, Nembhard had another seemingly quiet but massive game, especially when his team needed it most. Nembhard scored eight of his 14 points in the fourth, including a massive, stepback 3 over Shai Gilgeous-Alexander — his teammate on Canada Basketball — with 1:59 to play. His most significant contribution, however, might have been on defense. For much of the fourth, Nembhard served as the primary defender on Gilgeous-Alexander. Nembhard limited SGA to four shot attempts in the period, and his physicality on Gilgeous-Alexander's final attempt with 11 seconds left helped set up Haliburton's game-winner. The Pacers clear the glass In the regular season, the Pacers were tied for 27th in rebounds, hauling in just 41.8 per game. The Thunder were tied for 11th (44.8). Yet, in Game 1, Indiana outworked OKC and claimed a 56-39 edge, or a +17 differential. The Pacers did turn the ball over much more, and Oklahoma City did attempt 16 more shots, which in theory diminished the number of defensive rebounds available for the Thunder. This is an area of relative weakness for Indiana, one the Thunder should try to exploit. LOSERS Thunder finishing in the fourth Oklahoma City isn't a team that typically squanders leads late in games, especially at home. Yet, the Thunder got outscored by 10 in the final period and faltered on both sides. Not only did OKC go cold in the fourth, with seven misses coming within the paint, but the Thunder also lost defensive intention and focus and let Indiana shoot 50% from the floor. In fact, the Pacers drilled 6-of-10 from 3, while the Thunder did not make any of their five attempts from beyond the arc. In the final 2:38, the Thunder, who held a nine-point lead inside the final 3 minutes of the game, allowed the Pacers to score 12 points. Pacers turnovers The Pacers have grit, at this point there can be no question. But Indiana should also consider itself to be quite fortunate. That's because, simply put, there is no way the Pacers can win this series if they turn the ball over anywhere near the way they did in Game 1. Indiana committed 25 turnovers Thursday night, which, for most of the game, played right into Oklahoma City's hands. The Pacers, though, did improve as the game went on; 20 of those turnovers came in the first half. Chet Holmgren In a game in which Shai Gilgeous-Alexander dropped 38 and Lu Dort added 15 on five made 3-pointers, center Chet Holmgren underwhelmed. His six points marked his lowest output of the postseason, as did his two made field goals. And then, defensively, Holmgren also struggled at times to find Pacers center Myles Turner, who went 3-of-4 in the fourth quarter.

Thunder filled with regrets after failing to put away Pacers in Game 1 of NBA Finals
Thunder filled with regrets after failing to put away Pacers in Game 1 of NBA Finals Show Caption Hide Caption NBA Finals Predictions: Thunder or Pacers? Do the Pacers have a chance against the Thunder in thr NBA Finals? The FTH crew doesn't have much faith in this this series OKLAHOMA CITY – For a long stretch of Game 1 of the NBA Finals between the Oklahoma City Thunder and Indiana Pacers, it looked like the Pacers were the team that would leave the arena regretting a blown chance. The Pacers were committing turnovers on what seemed like every other possession – 20 turnovers in the first half alone. NBA MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander of the Oklahoma City Thunder put up another 30-point performance. An arena full of mostly Thunder fans – save for the full-time non-basketball operations Pacers employees who were flown out for the game – had nearly 48 minutes of game action to celebrate. 'This arena is madness … from a road perspective, the decibels were insane,' Pacers coach Rick Carlisle said. When the game ended, nearly 18,000 Thunder fans left the arena disappointed. The Thunder have regrets. They squandered an opportunity. They failed to take full advantage of those Pacers turnovers and put the Pacers away. They failed to hold onto a 15-point lead early in the fourth quarter and a nine-point lead late in the fourth quarter. They failed to take advantage of Gilgeous-Alexander's 38-point game. They failed to win Game 1 Thursday, June 5. The resilient Pacers defeated the Thunder 111-110, taking a 1-0 series lead on Tyrese Haliburton's 21-foot jump shot with 0.3 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter. 'We got to learn from it, we got to improve like we would if we had won the game and get ourselves ready for Game 2. That's really what it comes down to," Thunder coach Mark Daigneault said. While the Thunder were disappointed, there was not any panic. Oklahoma City lost Game 1 to Denver in the Western Conference semifinals and won the series in seven games. 'The playoffs take you to the limit,' Daigneault said. 'They put your back against the wall, in games, in series. If you make it this far, you have to endure to do that. It gives you rich experiences that you can draw on. … 'There's a lot more games left in the series. We understand that. We got to get ourselves to zero, as we always do. That's a habit that hopefully we've formed. These guys have made a habit of being able to get ourselves centered and play our best game in the next game.' More Jeff Zillgitt: Pacers teach Thunder hard lesson in NBA Finals Game 1. You cannot count them out. The Thunder have not lost consecutive games in the playoffs and lost two consecutive games just twice during the regular season. They won 68 regular-season games and 12 playoff games. They know what is required. They will look at the film. Of Indiana's 25 turnovers, the Thunder had just 11 points off those turnovers. They shot just 39.8% from the field. Daigneault tinkered with the starting lineup, inserting Cason Wallace in place of Isaiah Hartenstein. Chet Holmgren had just six points and was not a factor. 'The series isn't first to one, it's first to four,' Gilgeous-Alexander said. 'We have four more games to get, they have three. That's just where we are. We got to understand that, and we got to get to four before they get to three, if we want to win the NBA championship. 'It's that simple. It's not rocket science. We lost Game 1. We have to be better.'
