What I want to know is why he needed smelling salts right before the kick. Camera caught it. Is that a thing for kickers now? Never seen it before. No mention of it on the broadcast, of course.

That should’ve been, of course, Clint Capela. (I’ve been watching too much soccer lately.)

For all there is to like about Haliburton’s game, his habit of picking up his dribble in bad places without knowing where he’s going with the ball is maddening.

Pacers got a brutal whistle that first half and it did not appear Carlisle considered challenging any of them. Suggests he’s comfortable holding his challenges for later with the Pacers leading or close.

G3: a Rick Carlisle masterpiece. Trusted his bench early and often, pressed SGA&Co. 94 ft, let him go 1v1, wore him down. OKC collectively gassed at the end, miss 10 of their last 12 FGs, 0-4 on 3s & 4 of 10 FTs. Pacers go 7-13 FGs, 3-5 3s, 3-3 FTs. Good night

Of course. One, I’ve said Ant needs to learn how to operate from multiple places on the floor for weeks. Two, analysis isn’t based purely on results. Ant couldn’t get to a shot when the TWolves needed one. Hali has. A great player has multiple ways to give themselves a high % chance to win.

Anthony Edwards should have spent less time learning how to shoot the 3 like Steph and more on how to constantly move off the ball like him. Haliburton apparently did, and it’s why OKC couldn’t keep him contained the way they did Ant.

Describing that as a punch is malfeasance, both by the ref and The Athletic blurb writer. He pushed him with his fist.
