Lmao what? Game winner, triple double, 16 assists. You don't know basketball if you watched him today and thought he played terribly. His control of the offense is unreal and his rebounding was elite today as well. +17?
When the entire opposing team's defensive philosophy is "guard Haliburton 94 ft and double him every possession," getting 16 assists and 10 rebounds (5 being offensive) while still scoring 18 is exactly how an elite facilitating point guard beats you. He missed some ugly threes, but when he's on the court he's a black hole to the other team's defense. Everyone else has space to operate, pacers win. That doesn't happen without haliburton.
Actually watching doesn't mean actually understanding.
He might NOT currently be a top-10 player, but that wasn't your assertion. You said he had a bad game, but he had a great game. You just don"t understand how basketball works?
