Even if he misses all remaining clutch shots, he'll still have had the most clutch playoff run ever seen.
So many people who attain the heights of power in this culture—celebrities, for instance—have to make a show of false humility and modesty, as if they got as far as they did by accident and not by ego or ambition.

It's definitely the most clutch postseason performance ever so far. The guy doesn't **** miss in the clutch.

That Reggie stat is crazy since it’s only 1997 and after lol.


Pretty crazy that the Pacers went and found another outlier clutch performer after Reggie Miller

i like kawhi too

he hasn't lost it. when he's on and healthy he's still the same dude who was insanely automatic 5or10 years ago.
it's amazing to me that he can be managed for incredibly lengthy periods and not miss a beat

i mean,,,,talk about "what ifs"

Could front-rim an open layup last 5 seconds in the next 3 games for the pacers to lose and would still be a top clutch post season

Haliburton deserves the championship this year. Too bad it is guaranteed okc wins it.

I've heard it through the grapevine..NBA gods have already designated OKC Thunder as the 2025 NBA Champions. The destiny is real. TRUST ME.

It's just so weird on how he does it, like he's the anti-LeBron, underwhelming most of the game then boom, he appears late and contributes in the clutch.

.
6-of-7 mark this postseason (85.7) on go-ahead or game-tying field goals in the final two minutes of the 4th quarter or overtime — the highest percentage by any player in a single Playoff run since play-by-play tracking began (min. 5 attempts)

Haliburton’s gone 13-of-15 on such shots this season – good for an absurd 86.7% clip – more than 30% higher than the next closest player with 10+ attempts
