Tyrese Haliburton had some exquisite playoff stats, stunning the crowd-beside-the-game. The Indiana Pacers guard put up 31 points, splashed six threes, and shot at 67 percent from the field in a closeout-game performance that had the East Coast talking. The tweet by NBACentral was the fodder for debate. It said: “Overrate that!” The phrase elicited responses of applause, condemnation, or just plain confusion.

Adeola was eventually flooded with excitement and had to say aloud: “What the F*CKKK??? Close out game and he did this. This nigga is a superstar.” Damon Hawkes dissented: “And he still overrated. Consistency is key. They not winning what matters.” The discourse went on, with JPenningway saying, “Ballin out da gym these playoffs,” and that is hard to argue with.
Making all the noise for the numbers, Digits Sports App stated, “Haliburton now has more 30/5/5 playoff games than any other player in Pacers history.” So he not only plays well; that is domination on a record-breaking franchise level. The Internet went on arguing. One Hater by the nickname IamAGod69 threw a curveball: “Pacers just have a good roster. No superstar is putting up 4 points in a playoff game. He is overrated as hell.” The other user went further with the rally: “People really hate a guy who just wins more than their favorite player.”
This is where the fun starts: some of these still were not willing to believe it. Cristian admitted, “I didn’t know bro was this good, put the team on his back tonight! (Don’t watch NBA).” DiEHARDnLA interjected into the hype: “Bruh Centel got me again thought this was real.”
This Haliburton statement game was a mic drop. Overrated or not, make no mistake-this guy is good for talking. And in the present NBA, that’s half the battle. Pacers rolls on with stats literally finding themselves in the ridiculous realm-and the detractors? Out of excuses.”

So, what’s on the menu? More fireworks, really. Should Haliburton keep on rolling like this, “overrated” talk might precipitate joko-paano. Or angry tweets from those who never accepted it. That should be one hell of a show.
