Tyrese Haliburton Responds To Dwyane Wade's Comments After Game Winner



Tyrese Haliburton's thrilling game winner with 0.3 seconds left in Game 1 of the NBA Finals elicited an eruption of reactions on social media, though perhaps none were more notable than Dwayne Wade's viral celebration, in which he loudly declared Haliburton a superstar. Wade's reaction was especially touching for Haliburton, who grew up a Miami Heat fan and idolized the three-time NBA champion. Haliburton and the Pacers' run this postseason has been compared to that of the 2011 Dallas Mavericks, who ironically beat Wade's Heat in the NBA Finals that season.

Oklahoma City vs Indiana Pacers NBA Finals Game 2 viewership hits 18-year low



The Thunder's 123-107 blowout win on Sunday, which evened the best-of-seven series at 1-1, failed to generate strong national interest. Viewership was down 30 percent from last year's Game 2, when the Boston Celtics faced the Dallas Mavericks, and also lagged behind the 2021 series between the Milwaukee Bucks and Phoenix Suns, which was still affected by lingering COVID-19 disruptions. The last time Game 2 of the Finals had fewer viewers was in 2007, when only 8.55 million tuned in to watch the San Antonio Spurs face off against LeBron James's Cleveland Cavaliers.
