Tyrese Haliburton pushed the series of the Second Tour series of the Indiana Pacers against Cleveland riders at 2-0 after its incredible three-point shot on Tuesday evening.
But how he celebrated can lead to a fine of the league – and it goes perfectly if it happens too.
Haliburton amazed Cleveland on their field, obtaining the rebound on his own missed franc throw and proceeding to bury a 3 point steps at the top of the key with a second to beat to beat the Cavs, 120-119.

During the main TNT broadcast, the celebration of Haliburton was out of frame. A replay showed exactly how he celebrated, and he used the infamous “Big-B —- Dance”, which was made famous in “Major League II” and brought to the League by the former goalkeeper of the NBA Sam Cassell.
In the eyes of the league, however, fines were made for those who reproduced it in the past.
After the match, Haliburton said it was the one he “waited” to use, and would take everything that could come.
“It was right in the moment,” he told journalists.
“I will take this good with pleasure.”

Haliburton’s response shows that he knew the risk of celebration long before using it, which is why he had it in the case for the right time.
Haliburton has already run the NBA qualifiers, especially with regard to clutch shots in times of crisis.
In the first round series of the Pacers against the Milwaukee Bucks, he spent Giannis Antetokounmpo and made a lay-up just before the expiration of the time to close the series in five games.

Now on the road, the Pacers have shot down the most seeded Cavs twice, and the 22 points of Haliburton in case 1 helped the case of Indiana before its heroism in match 2.
If the playoffs did not add enough motivation to occur, Haliburton also pulled in a survey of the NBA players, who had the most common answer for most players in the league.
He said: “overestimating this”, when he ended the chances of the Bucks to lift the Larry O’Brien trophy.
“This one was unexpected,” said Haliburton in this series when asked for the surface songs he heard. “I did not know that we had beef. I think that now that this label is there, it will be that each time we play someone on the road. It will probably follow me until the next survey knows.
