Pascal Siakam said, “He is a normal,” said Pascal Siakam. “He drives us, so we are going to ride with tieres until the wheels fall.
“At the end of the day, some people are going to like it, some people are not going to like it. I think he is a selfless player when he plays. He is one thing, one thing in the mind, one thing to win, to win, and he is always wondering how to make us better.”
In the fourth quarter of that Crazy Game 5 against Milwauki, Heliberton missed some of the major shots, giving a chance to remove the box for good, and he thought he allowed Indianana to go down. But his companions never believed about him.
“Get the ball!” Pacers Center Miles Turner shouted at Haliberton.
In overtime, Heliberton had a chance to distribute. He missed six shots in the additional frame, but on Indiana's final possession, Heliberton blew gianis Antatoconampo for a paste to shut down 8–0 runs, leading to the lead with 1.3 seconds to Passers.
Pamen's coach Rick Carlisley said, “When it comes to believing in themselves, Tieres has an iron desire,” Paper's coach Rick Carlisley said after that victory. “He works very hard on what he does. He works very hard on his craft, his skills. He is fearless.
“He reminds me of a lot of Regi (Miller). This game would go down as one of the all-time Great Pesar win due to the circumstances in overtime and what was on the line, and Ty, of course, there was a big part of this end. So, congratulations to him.”
Haliburton's father, John went to court and Antatoconampo was taunted when a return. Elder Haliberton will not participate in another pacers game at home or on the road, Eastern Conference Final Sports till 4,
Elder was one of the NBA themes of discussion for the days of conversation between Heliberton and Antatoconampo. But the pacer guard was surprised, choosing against Cleveland Cavalers instead of focusing on the second round series of his team. Even key cave players with injuries to pacers Was not in favor of winning the series,
Against Caves, Heliberton once again played the role of a hero. During the first half of Game 2, it was feared that Heliberton faced a wrist injury. But after passing through X-rays in Haftime, Heliberton returned to a memorable second half. With the remaining 1.1 seconds, he hit one of the biggest shots of his career.
After grabbing his own rebound with a missed free throw, Heliberton excluded the clock until he could separate, then stepped to the top of the key and let the ball go.
“I mean, this is a special feeling, man,” said Haliburton. “It's very funny. I mean, like any basketball fan, or whoever is involved in basketball, everyone in his life has imagined having a child, being in the drive, staying in the living room, lying in his bed, putting it more time on shooting, missing, clock.
“You know, like all those things, this is a child's game, and I get a lot of money to play a child's game. So, I am just having fun there, just fun with what I am doing. Winning is really fun, you know, but I like to be in these situations. Any way, we find my way in these situations, we find that we have found to know.”

Since the magical playoff run of the pacers began, Heliberton has demonstrated not only in his team, but also himself, under pressure, calm and increasing confidence. Before every game, when some players can face stone in high pressure situations, which inspires anything, trying to lock them, Heliburton is a picture of cool. He carelessly walks through the locker room, often smiling because he interacts with his companions. You would not know from looking at him that he is a few minutes away from playing on one of the biggest stages of basketball.
Haliburton is a living example of often repeated phrases by his peers: “Never be too much, never less.” The drama and intensity of the moment is in the background.
After winning and disadvantage, Heliberton always takes the same approach: there are things in his game that he can work to improve. Self-known “film Neerad” has discussed his love-no matter how painful he is, to see the film to watch and break the film.
Haliberton only loves sports.
“By the time I found my dog, my video game and a court, I will be fine,” Heliberton said.
When there was time to meet New York Nix in the final of the Eastern Conference, Heliberton strengthened his place as an opponent in Nax's learning. In Game 1, Regi Miller rebuilt choke jashn after Heliberton hit an impossible shot to send overtime to the game for the first time. Pamens won the first two games of the series on the road.
After winning the game 3 and 5, Nax forced a game 6. Heliberton said that he would watch the film and be a better game 6. And as he did in every other series of these playoffs, Heliberton gave it. Although he landed for a relatively quiet start in the first half, Heliberton with 11 points in the fourth quarter, four assistance and three rebels, removed Nex for good.
While Siakam was nominated as the Eastern Conference Final MVP, Heliberton played an important role in India's decisive victory and the first visit of the NBA final in 25 years.
After all, this is what he does.
“He is a point guard by nature, a classic point guard by nature, a person running a team,” said Carlisley. “But they have developed the ability to score and, you know, strike the balance is always a challenge. They have done a big job of migrating through it.
“Teams do a lot of things to make him strict. They have learned a lot about being in a fight when the teams are doing things to disrupt him and physically try to intimidate him and do such things. And our people have a back.”
In 2024, those “people” scored a run in the final of the Eastern Conference. There, the final NBA champion Boston Celtix swept the pacers. Haliberton played only in the first two matches of the series due to a hamstring issue.
Despite the loss, there was hope for the future of his young team behind his promising star in Indianapolis. Since joining the team, Heliberton has offered all cities and is proud to be united with the city.
“I think I feel like being in Indy, it's a great place for me,” said Heliberton. “Indie is a very big place as I am also addicted. … My whole family now lives there. We like to live there. It is very fun for me.
“I don't need a big city glitz and glamor. I really like hometown, small town experience with our fans. Our home-applene benefits are different, because people are really emotional about our teams, and their parents were emotional about the team. … That's why I enjoy being a part of it, why I want to be a part of my career.”
It won't be easy against pacers and haliburton Oklahoma City ThunderThe most prominent team of NBA in regular season and playoffs. Then, pacers are underdogs.
But so far in these playoffs, Heliberton has not only worn Indiana on her chest, but she has also placed the team on her back.
