Does anyone know what happened in the crowd that got Giannis so mad after the game?

Did Hali do anything stupid?


There's a BlueSky post saying Giannis got in Ty's father's face.


Yup. Giannis came in and looked like he started yelling down at Haliburton's dad. Then, Giannis dapped up a few guys and then pulled in Mathurin by the neck and started talking down at him, which Mathurin tried to pull away from. Then Kevin Porter Jr tried escalating a couple times?

Real weird ending. Giannis was dapping up a bunch of guys and then talking down at a bunch of other guys and they didn't all make sense?

Theres a video that shows Ty's father going onto the court to **** talk Giannis. Thats how it started. Couldve ended much worse then it did.

I am still speechless as to what i just saw. Felt like the Pacers lost this game like 8 times tonight and yet somehow kept fighting and battling that they ended up winning. Incredible.

Seeing how Giannis acted afterwards made me believe he didn't start the shat talk. Good victory but our young guys need to mature up a bit honestly.
Everyone has a right to be stupid. Some just abuse the privilege.

Need to do better but it was Tyrese's dad. Not sure what that has to do with the team?

What an Ugly ugly win in a roller coaster of a game and emotions. The Pacers never gave up no matter the size of the hole they or the Bucks dug for them.

Double double from Aaron Nesmith. Huge second unit run from TJ McConnell. A strong game by Myles again. On a night when offensively Siakam was quiet his teammates picked him up. Kudos to him guarding Giannis. Game saving late 3 by Nembhard. Game winner by Tyrese. Is this scenario surprising nah we’re used to them playing down to the competition. To pull off the comeback and win in this fashion incredible.

I like Tyrese’s honesty admitting that he missed some crucial shots before coming back to make plays necessary to win. I wish he would’ve not blamed Pops during the interview and just said Pops and I will talk later.

Doc Rivers strategy tonight worked, however the Pacers just wouldn’t quit. Job well done Pacers to advance.

As for Mathurin I just don’t get what he’s thinking getting chippy with Giannis when he’s dapping up several players. Mathurin waits for his turn and
????$&@. Sure he kneed you on a basketball play. Get over it and be the bigger man and communicate later.

I’m really questioning Mathurin’s mentality of thinking he’s the best player and how he appears to try and verbally get into people’s heads. It may get him a ticket out of Indy. I really can’t see Nesmith going anywhere and I think Walker and Sheppard remain as Carlisle prefers defenders.
