Today, in the NBA Eastern Conference semifinals, the Knicks defeated the Pacers 121-91!
Brunson, the star of the Knicks, once again explained what is cost-effective, scoring 44 points, 4 rebounds and 7 assists in the game, and his contract is 4 years and 104 million!
Haliburton, the star of the Pacers, only made 9 shots in the key game that decided the promotion, and he scored 13 points, 2 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks.
Haliburton just completed a five-year, 207 million super-cap salary extension with the team last summer, and now he is a bit of a high-salary and low-energy compared to Brunson.
Also, it's worth mentioning that many people say that Haliburton is too selfless on the pitch and is always looking for open teammates on the break.
In fact, Haliburton seems to be more afraid of shooting, in today's game, Brunson repeatedly shot, seeing the score gap getting wider and wider, but what did Haliburton do?
He's more of a dribble to the weak side of the three-point line, either asking for the ball to be passed to Turner or Siakam at the top of the arc, or throwing the ball to Nembhard and Nesmith to let them sprint inside and stay on the perimeter himself!
Is this sure to be the performance of the team boss?! He's like Ben Simmons, he can pass the ball and never shoot, he's afraid he won't be able to shoot!
The future of the Pacers is entrusted to the wrong person! It is advisable to sign Paul George back this summer, he is the boss of the Pacers.
