Every last one of them. Now, the funny thing about that press conference, I don't think it reveals, but I told Juju the other night, because I was there, him and Halliburton, they were incredibly relaxed for a team that got its ass kicked and now we've got to go back and win the game six.
Usually in that situation, you've got a player say, hey, we've got to win back at home because we're not going to come back here. Now these guys are like, ah, we got it. They seemed so confident. I was thrown off by it. And so I know that exchange, he got a little irritated. I think it was because Greg kept going after him over and over again.

But overall, his demeanor in that press conference was super relaxed. And what we saw on Saturday, I was like, oh, yeah, it makes sense. They knew they had this.

I mean, I think for the Pacers when they did that deal, it was absolutely a chips to the middle of the table thing because they realized, man, Halliburton is special and we need to get him the supporting cast. You remember the guy that they traded away was Bruce Brown, who had just won a championship with Denver. Great role player, but a role player.

And Siakam is an all-star caliber player, obviously a former champion, former G League champion. And so he brings that kind of gravitas that they needed to take their program to the next level. Why did you just do former G League champion?

Him and Fred Van Vliet, they won a championship for the Raptors G League team. And a lot of people point to that as like these were the seeds of Championship Toronto. And Kawhi.

Yeah, the Pacers surprised, and he was the one that was their most consistent player in the conference finals. And that's the other thing about Halliburton, Dan. He had the moment, you could say that. He also had a lot of disappearing acts within that conference finals, and that's really the reason I think the spread between him and Siakam in terms of winning MVP was that.

I think the voters were saying Siakam was the guy that showed up pretty much almost every night, and Halliburton kind of came and went.
