was eliminated 1-4 with a big score, and the Cavaliers, the top seed in the Eastern Conference, was swept by a gentleman in the semi-finals! The old core James immediately spoke out to support Halliburton who advanced, but was ridiculed by American netizens: Do you want to go to the Pacers?
Cavaliers were eliminated 1-4
114-105, and G5 of the series returned to home court, but the Cavaliers still failed to win. The series score was frozen at 4-1, and the Pacers swept the No. 1 seed Cavaliers in the East to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals.
As the most fiercest seed in the Eastern Conference this season, the Cavaliers were eliminated in an upset manner because of serious injuries, and on the other hand, the Pacers' style is more restrained in the Cavaliers.
This season, the Cavaliers won 36 wins and 5 losses at home against other teams, but they faced the Pacers with 0 wins and 5 losses, so it seems reasonable to be eliminated by the opponent.
Pacers broke the doubts and advanced 4-1 with a big score, which proved that the Cavaliers were overrated for their excellent regular season record, while the Pacers were seriously underestimated.
After advancing to the Eastern Conference Final again this season, the Pacers have advanced to the Eastern Conference Final for two consecutive years, the first time in 2013 and 14 years.
More importantly, the core Halliburton broke the doubts from the outside with his actions. Before the start of the playoffs, an anonymous vote was held within the league, when Halliburton was selected as the "most overrated player".
Faced with the contempt and underestimation of the outside world, Halliburton did not refute it, but made a strong counterattack with his performance on the field again and again.
G5 challenged the Cavaliers away. Faced with the end of this series, Halliburton was not ruthless. He scored 10 of 15 shots and scored 31 points, 6 rebounds, 8 assists and 1 steal all-around data, with a plus-negative value of up to +27.
Facing the team's huge disadvantage of 19 points behind in the second quarter, Halliburton made 5 of 5 three-pointers in a single quarter and broke the team's history record, and even made 4 consecutive three-pointers in one go to help the team turn the situation around the away game and complete a major reversal.
This is not the first time Halliburton has delivered such a magical performance this season. Facing the Bucks in the first round of the playoffs, Halliburton made a layup and eliminated the Bucks 119-118.
faced the Cavaliers G2 in the second round. Also in a big way behind, Halliburton led the team to complete a big reversal and completed a 1+3 final kill at the last moment.
The playoffs have been hit twice in 3 seconds, and they are the fourth player in NBA history to accomplish this feat after 02 Horry, 18 James and 25 years Gordon.
Jack James supported him and was ridiculed by the public. Faced with Halliburton's performance, James, who had already been eliminated in the first round, also posted a message to support Halliburton after watching the game.
James wrote: "Halliburton played great! Where are the idiots who said he was overrated? Now he is so quiet that this kid is playing great. Everyone is willing to play with Halliburton."
As a result, James's voice caused a lot of controversy, and a large number of fans appeared in the comment section to mock James.
Viewpoint one is to criticize James for not supporting the Cavaliers, after all, the latter is James' old club, and James is also a Clevelander.
Viewpoint 2 is that he is recruiting Halliburton because in the last sentence of the comment, James said: "Everyone is willing to play with Halliburton."
Viewpoint 3 is that he directly jokes that James will join the Pacers this summer. Many netizens directly posted photos of James wearing the Pacers jersey.
This summer, James holds a player option worth $52.6 million, and in theory has the right to reselect the next player.
