32 assists and 0 turnovers!The first person in history!A new generation of point guard gods was born, and the dark horse in the East has risen super
In the new season, the new pattern, there are many dark horse teams in the East and West that have risen strongly, and their strength and record are impressive, such as the Timberwolves, Rockets, Thunder in the West, the Pacers in the East, and so on. Among these dark horse teams, the Indiana Pacers have a bleak star and are far from the spotlight, but they have played well in the new season, with a 7-4 record and a high 4th place in the East. In this process, Turner, Mathurine, Hield, Brown, Nesmouth and other powerful players dare to fight, and Haliburton has become the league's top court commander!
32 assists and 0 turnovers, the first in history
As the saying goes, trains run fast because of the headband, and Haliburton is the train driver for this pauper walker, and there is no shortage of power. After 11 games, Haliburton played in 10 games, contributing points + assists double-double in 9 games. Haliburton averaged 33 minutes per game, averaging 24.7 points + 4.2 rebounds + 12.5 assists (1st in the league) + 1.1 steals + 3.4 three-pointers per game, shooting 52.8%, 43.6% and 93.2% from three. Among them, playing the Hornets, Haliburton scored 43 points + 12 assists, playing the Bucks, Haliburton contributed 29 points + 10 assists, and in the two games against the 76ers, Haliburton scored a total of 58 points + 32 assists + 0 turnovers (25 points + 17 assists + 0 turnovers and 33 points + 15 assists + 0 turnovers).
In the process, Haliburton set several NBA god-level records. According to statistics from the NBA's official website, Haliburton scored at least 25 points + 15 assists and 0 turnovers in two consecutive games, the first in NBA history. At the same time, Haliburton is the first player in NBA history to score at least 30 points + 5 rebounds + 15 assists + 5 three-pointers in a single game with 0 turnovers. In another statistic, Haliburton has at least 15 assists and 0 turnovers in a single game in five of the past five seasons, the most in the league, in comparison, Paul, who is regarded as the god of active point guards, has only achieved such a feat three times in the same period.
A new generation of point guard gods was born, and the $260 million in five years was well deserved
Haliburton is only 23 years old, but he's definitely the best of the new generation of point guards, more pragmatic than Trae Young, more poised than Doncic, and more durable than the three-ball Ball. Even compared to the older generation of point guards, Haliburton has the same speed as Nash, the same big picture as Paul, the same level of projection as Harden, and more athleticism. Haliburton seems to be a natural point guard, good at reading the game, able to solve problems on his own and willing to trust his teammates, and increasingly like a leader. In the words of fans, Haliburton is the god of the NBA's new generation of point guards!
From playing for Fox when he was the Kings to becoming the No. 1 core of the team when he was with the Pacers, from the little-known No. 12 rookie to the All-Star player last season, Haliburton has become the face of Indiana step by step, gaining fame and fortune. Turning the clock back to the offseason, the Pacers immediately offered Haliburton a five-year, $260 million super-cap contract. If there were still some doubts at the time, then after seeing Haliburton's answer sheet for the new season, many people may have reached a consensus: Haliburton deserves to sign such a big contract!
No. 1 in the 5-event league, the Eastern Dark Horse Super Rise
Haliburton is cashing in on his talent, and the Pacers are on a super-emergent role as a dark horse in the East. So far this season, the Pacers have ranked among the top in the league in a number of offensive statistics, including points per game (126.5 points), offensive efficiency (122), assists (30.8), assist-to-turnover ratio (2.4), and true shooting percentage (61%). I don't deny that the Pacers' defense is somewhat ineffective, but for this Young Guard, a championship race is unrealistic, and to make the playoffs is a huge success. Life experience has taught me that defense wins championships, offense wins the regular season, and Haliburton is definitely capable of leading the Pacers to become the spoiler of the regular season!
