Stephen A. Smith lamenting the Knicks' passing on Haliburton in the draft:
Matt's dealing with a foot injury and is still on Alba's roster. He last played NOV 17 in a EuroLeague game but he only played 11 minutes; I suspect that that's when the injury occurred.Not to derail the Tyrese love (also enjoying him this season), but anybody know why Matt T isn't playing in euro league any more?
Yea, he honestly was pretty passive offensively for much of the 3rd and beginning of 4th. Looking to teammates first. But at the end he took it over and thrust the dagger.Tyrese closed it out again late.
It's not just stat stuffing, he takes over scoring, passing and even defense/rebounding whenever the team needs him to.
This tournament has been a success for the NBA because it allowed them to showcase their best and most charismatic young star.
I wanted to write that he was incredible down the stretch - he had 2 buckets in the last minute - but he was really nails the whole time. What a performance in a string of incredible performances. He's orchestrating the game more and more.Tyrese closed it out again late.

It's kind of like the Pacers can make the playoffs now...but feel like they made it last year, like a cheat to get a little playoff experience. The teams definitely played extra hard at least in this knockout phase. The four teams that lost in quarters were visibly upset much more than a regular 82 game season game.
