Pacers' Tyrese -Haliburton reports reportedly from the NBA for game 2, but no fine

by

Tyrese Haliburton said that he would like to “take over this fine” if any punishments for his solemn dance were coming after playing 2 comeback playoffs from Cleveland against the Cleveland Cavaliers against the Clleveland's players' win from Cleveland.

However, he only received a warning from the NBA because he imitates Sam Cassell and “Major League II” -Faracter Pedro Cerrano with his “Big Balls” celebrations, reports the Associated Press. The league did not make an official announcement on this matter.

Haliburton said after the game on Wednesday that he was waiting for the opportunity to do the dance. There may have never been a better one than after a game-winning shot in a playoff game on the street.

The shot came after Hailburton had grabbed the back rash from his own missed free throw and pushed the ball back to the top of the 3-point arch. After Cleveland's Ty Jerome defended him, Haliburton then released on a crossover dribble, a strop step and a street backer for a clean shot, which remains with 1.1 seconds.

“I waited for it. I waited for it, man,” said Haliburton about the AP. “It was right at the moment. It was right at the moment. Yes, man, I was waiting for it. I will be happy to take it well.”

The Pacers star had many reasons to assume that he would be a fine for what the NBA previously referred to as “obscene gesture”, and the players punished to do so, including LeBron James, Fred Van Vleet, Julius Randle, Jameer Nelson and Eddie House. The fines were between 15,000 and 25,000 US dollars.

Whether Haliburton's celebration in a playoff game or probably a first criminal offense, he will not agree with this list. But there could always be a next time.

Game 3 between the Pacers and Cavaliers is planned for Friday at 7:30 p.m. ET in Indianapolis. Indiana has a 2-0 lead.
