Halliburton magic added suspense to the finals, and joked that he was "underrated" because he was not good at jump shots

The NBA schedule entered the playoffs, and the Pacers overcome all obstacles and crossed mountains and rivers to the finals stage. They reversed all the way, eliminating the Bucks, Cavaliers, and Knicks one after another. This situation is extremely rare in the history of the league, and the one who has been discussed most during the reversal is Halliburton, the Pacers star, who was rated as "the most overrated player" by some players.

Halliburton gave his own guess about this. He believes that the reason why he was named the "most overrated player" this season may be his jump shot. His mid-range shooting moves have been criticized since Harry entered the NBA. Another reason is that his influence on the game cannot be reflected in technical statistics. In the G1 battle in the finals, almost no one is optimistic about the Pacers. Whether from the strength on paper or the weight of the stars, the Pacers have no chance of winning the championship, and the odds given by the bookmaker are even more obvious. In the last game against the Bucks, Halliburton tied the Bucks with consecutive layups and defeated the Bucks in overtime. In the G2 battle against the Cavaliers, Halliburton missed a free throw and grabbed a rebound, and fired from the outside three-pointer to complete the final kill. In the G1 match against the Knicks, the Knicks were still leading the Pacers by as much as 15 points in the second half of the final quarter. Then Nesmith made a crazy six-game shot. After that, Halliburton scored two points in a long line and tied the game against the Thunder. The Pacers were behind for the entire game. In the end, only 0.3 seconds, Halliburton won the victory with another winning mid-range.
Halliburton played in 38 minutes and only made 13 attempts in 38 minutes, including 7 attempts from the outside, two three-pointers and four mid-range shots. As a star, such data should not be used in the playoffs. As an opponent, Alexander made 30 attempts in this game. Compared with the two, Halliburton did not have enough leadership. This is the main reason why he was named "the most overrated player".

It is precisely because of Halliburton's performance that this season's finals forced to add suspense. After watching Halliburton's finals, former NBA legend Wade said: I want to go find Halliburton to sign!
