Tears! Behind Halliburton s injury-winning goal: Do your best for the Pacers, tiebreak is the dream moment

Halliburton never thought of missing the finals, even if he had wounded his right calf and limped. If in the regular season, Halliburton will be on standby for several weeks due to injury. But he still appeared in Game 6 of the Finals with an injury, and contributed 14 points and 5 assists, with a plus-negative value of +25 highest in the game. The tough Halliburton helped the Pacers to bring the game into the tiebreak, defeating the Thunder 108-91. This civilian legion burst out with huge energy in desperate situations. Never give up and fight to the end. This is the reason why they fought all the way to the present.

"We want to defend our home court, and I don't want to see these guys celebrate the championship at our home court. We just responded, great team effort, and I'm proud of this team." Halliburton said after winning. This is the Pacers' last home court this season. Countless people outside think that the Thunder will end the battle in Game 6 because of their higher talent because the Pacers core Halliburton suffered a right calf strain.

It seems that this is a relatively common script. The Pacers are still honored even though they lose, but unfortunately they lose to Thunder because of injuries. But the tenacious Halliburton and the Pacers did wonders. Halliburton not only played, but did not become a drag on the court. Instead, it greatly boosted the morale of the Pacers and helped the team achieve a refreshing victory.

Halliburton wounded his right calf in the finals G5 and insisted on finishing the game. After the game, Halliburton limped when he got up and left, which made countless Pacers fans worried. Fortunately, Halliburton had active treatment from two days between Game 5 and Game 6.

Before the sixth game of the finals, famous reporter Chalanie revealed: "Halliburton really wants to play in G6. He will play as long as he can walk, but the Pacers will evaluate his injury before the game, and then the medical team will make a decision. I was told that if today was the regular season, Halliburton would be absent for several weeks. If he played, what would his condition be? These are issues worth paying attention to."

That's right, the star's injury fighting is a double-edged sword. The positive side will inspire teammates and inspire the team's fighting spirit. But the negative side is that he may be targeted by his opponent, and his offense is greatly reduced, which will become a drag on the team.

Pacers were 2-10 at the beginning and scored for more than 3 minutes without a goal in the sports game. In such an important game, the Pacers suffered a sky-collapse start. Fortunately, Siakam and Nemhad joined forces to play a 13-2 offensive wave, surpassing the Thunder. With 4 minutes and 16 seconds left in the first quarter, Halliburton received a pass from Turner and made a three-pointer in the arc. Halliburton finally scored a goal in a sports game.

"I told the coach that if I hurt the team on the court, then replace me." Halliburton had no idea what kind of performance he could perform before the game. However, his teammates gave Halliburton strong support. In this game, the Pacers are the soldiers of the whole nation. Sika broke the deadlock and scored 5 points in a row, Nemhard scored two three-pointers in a row, plus a layup, and then reached the piao two three-pointers in a row. After the Pacers overtake the Thunder, Halliburton also opened in the mobile war. In the second quarter, Halliburton made two three-pointers, plus a breakthrough and a throw-in. The Pacers scored 36-17 in the second quarter, opening the score in one fell swoop.

Halliburton was not in his best form, but he sorted out the Pacers' offense well and found the right opportunity to score. All Pacers are striving for the first place, they are very aggressive on the offensive end, and they are even fiercely fighting on the defensive end.

Pacers scored 26-18 in the third quarter to expand their lead, and the game lost its suspense in advance. The Pacers finally won a big victory, defeating the Thunder 108-91. This is the first time the Pacers won under 110 points this year, and they won the game in the Thunder. The Thunder are the best team in the league in pressing defense. But in this game, the Pacers made 16 steals, causing the Thunder to make frequent mistakes. The Pacers' 16 steals were tied for third in NBA Finals history. In 2008, the Celtics had 18 steals in a single finals, the Warriors had 17 steals in a single finals, and in 1977, the 76ers also had 16 steals in a single finals.

Pacers fight to defend their home court. The Pacers scored 6 in double digits. Toppin scored 20 points, 6 rebounds and 2 steals on the bench, Nemhard contributed 17 points, 4 assists and 3 steals, McConnell contributed 12 points, 9 rebounds, 6 assists and 4 steals, and Nesmith scored 10 points, 2 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal. The Thunder team made 21 mistakes in this battle.

The Pacers fought so hard, which has something to do with Halliburton's injury-fighting. "I think he did a great job today. He led us to victory, he is a fighter. He won't let any injury stop him from playing in the finals and help the team win. He has helped us to this point and will continue to move forward," teammate Topin said after the game.

Siakam said: "He is a tenacious kid. I have no doubt that he will play with us. He is doing his best."

It is worth mentioning that Halliburton said after the game that after the final G1 on June 6, he deleted all the social media apps on his phone, but occasionally checked WWE's news on his phone. In order to play the finals well, Halliburton tried every means to eliminate the interference. The Pacers' mission has not been completed yet, and Halliburton is also preparing for the tiebreak. After winning the G6, Halliburton said to the game of tiebreak: "I will do my best for this team. Tiebreak is the moment you dream of."
