Man. Don’t know how to explain it other than shock. Words cannot express the pain of this letdown. The frustration is unfathomable. I’ve worked my whole life to get to this moment and this is how it ends? Makes no sense.
Now that I’ve gotten surgery, I wish I could count the number of times people will tell me I’m going to “come back stronger”. What a cliche lol, this shit sucks. My foot feels like dead weight fam. But what’s hurting most I think is my mind. Feel like I’m rambling, but I know this is something I’ll look back on when I’m through this, as something I’m proud I fought through. It feels good to let this shit out without y’all seeing the kid ugly cry.
At 25, I’ve already learned that God never gives us more than we can handle. I know I’ll come out on the other side of this a better man and a better player. And honestly, right now, torn Achilles and all, I don’t regret it. I’d do it again, and again after that, to fight for this city and my brothers. For the chance to do something special.
Indy, I’m sorry. If any fan base doesn’t deserve this, it’s y’all. But together we are going to fight like hell to get back to this very spot, and get over this hurdle. I don’t doubt for a second that y’all have my back, and I hope you guys know that I have yours. I think Kobe said it best when in this same situation. “There are far greater issues/challenges in the world then a torn achilles. Stop feeling sorry for yourself, find the silver lining and get to work with the same belief, same drive and same conviction as ever.” And that’s exactly right. I will do everything in my power to get back right.
My journey to get to where I am today wasn’t by happenstance, I’ve pushed myself every day to be great. And I will continue to do just that. The most important part of this all, is that I’m grateful. I’m grateful for every single experience that’s led me here. I’m grateful for all the love from the hoop world. I don’t “have to” go through this, I get to go through this. I’m grateful for the road that lies ahead. Watch how I come back from this. So, give me some time, I’ll dust myself off and get right back to being the best version of Tyrese Haliburton.

NBA teams were 0-970 in the playoffs over the last 27 years when trailing by 14+ points with under 2:50 left in regulation.
Tonight made it 1-970 🤯

COMEBACK. COMPLETE.
Tyrese Haliburton's FOURTH go-ahead, game-winning, or game-tying FG in the last 30 seconds of 4Q or OT...
IN THIS PLAYOFFS ALONE 🤯
That ties Ray Allen (4 in 2009) for the most since the 1998 playoffs!
I don’t seem to see the “join a conference” or “you lost to Northern Illinois” lines anymore.
The Notre Dame haters have gone into hiding.
They beat the Big 10 Runner-Up, and Georgia who is the current standard of the sport the game before.
What are they going to say now?
Notre Dame is without an all-American DT, All-American 1st round pick CB, their top 2 pass rushers, starting LT (all season), starting center, another starting CB, and their superstar RB missed a huge chunk of the 2nd half.
And they’re in the CFP semifinals
What a football team

❤️ LIKE IF YOU WILL BE TAILING!
This one is a little juiced but this line is just too high for me.
This was the same number that opened up for him last game against the Nuggets without Ben Simmons.
Simmons should now for the 2nd stint of the B2B here as it was a planned “injury management” decision.
In the three games with Simmons this season, he was under in 2/3 and only averaged 9.3 potentials per game.
In games with Simmons last season, he has SOARED under this line in 4/5 games and averaged only 9.0 potentials in the 4 games he went under.
The Nets had a competitive OT game at home against the Nuggets. Wouldn’t be surprised to see a let down as they travel to Memphis as 12.5 point underdogs.
On top of that, Schroder played 41 minutes in last night’s game.
Schroder had just 5.5 assists per game on the road compared to 6.8 at home.
Loving this under.
LIKE = TAILING ❤️
