We Saw A One In A MILLION Situation In The NBA...

Last night we had a one in a million situation. Halliburton came back to the crime scene and put on a show. Kawhi Leonard replicated the dagger in his debut. You know, he loves those threes That same corner Flashback so buckle up cuz we're starting off in OKC where Halliburton came out furious Caruso's guarding, see I come coming out in transition Halliburton on the baseline hits the jumper play just 24 games last year assortment of injuries here's a long three good about it, too Look at Tyrese blocking the shot on one end and then swishing the second straight triple from way downtown for 8 quick points in just 4 minutes of action. Let's go! Then we saw a great example of the new rule about off-arm push-offs as Shea got called for the offensive foul here. Halliburton on the other end continued to cook. The first glimpses of Halliburton and Zubats are promising, but we already know how deadly are SGA's moves. Shay gets away from the defense twice with the silky step through and adds a little bit of sauce for a better taste. Just an elite finisher around the rim. Halliburton saw that and decided to put his full arsenal on display in the second quarter. two more. Williams missed it. Challenged by Zubats. Pacers on the run. Halliburton show goal. Left hand puts it in. He's got 16. Halliburton is going to launch again for three. This one good again. Four of them for Tyrese Halliburton. He's got 19 first half points. Halliburton was unconscious in the first half, scoring 24 points on 9 of 14 shooting from the field. Threes, layups, middies, you name it, he was doing it all. He's officially back. And SGA responded to that with 15 points and 6 assists of his own on 5 of 6 shooting. With both guys out in the second half, McCain and Mara took over. Geez, they completely faked out the entire Pacers team on that play. Amazing. And speaking of amazing things, it was pretty cool to see Kawhi Leonard back in a Raptors jersey. And not only that, he put up a vintage performance. He's going to tell you where he wants it. That's why it's important for him to know the personalities. Know what buttons to push. You see the nice turnaround jump shot. Raptors fans were buzzing for every bucket that Klaw made, and at the start of the second period he reminded everyone of an iconic moment. Are you kidding me? Leonard revives the epic dagger against Philly in his first game back in Toronto. This must be scripted. Jokes aside, the fun guy looked great on the court and in 17 minutes he put up 21 points, 5 boards and 2 steals on 50% efficiency. But the top The top two plays of the game belong to none other than Colin Murray-Boyles. Murray Boyles put James Wiseman on a poster with the thunderous jam. The 21-year-old stuffed the box score with 19 points and 9 rebounds on a perfect 7-of-7 from the field in just 16 minutes of playing time. They have great hopes around him in Toronto. Scottie Barnes added 19 points as well on 80% efficiency as the Raptors steamrolled past the Knicks. And in Orlando, the Magic did the same thing, obliterating the Cavs wire-to-wire behind and Ben Carros and Wagner's 44 points combined on a blistering 74% shooting from the field. But in the meantime, a one-in-a-million situation happened. Noah Penda goes for the dunk but the ball bounces off his face, goes out of the rim and then falls back in. This got everyone confused and after the replay the refs called it an offensive interference. You see, it's not counted as a basket until the ball goes completely through the net, so the hanging was illegal for the later shot. Damn, he almost broke his nose but he couldn't get the two points. On the other side, the newest Cavalier made sure to throw it down with force. From one foot back slam to another, we got Walker Kessler catching Yaxel by surprise. The big man had a pretty solid debut for the purple and gold in Vegas, putting up 11 points on 4 of 6 shooting to go along with 9 boards and 3 blocks. he's definitely a force in the paint. And Austin Reeves was on another level in the first half. Now he dives below Richard Babu with four to shoot. Babu drive. Kick. Three. Perfectly done. Reeves. Here he goes. All the way. Boy, that quickness right off the dribble, Stu. Once again, the Lakers have numbers going the other way. Five on three. Reeves open on his way. Down it goes. AR-15 took off in the second period, scoring 8 of his 28 points in less than 60 seconds. The Lakers were in total control when Mamu delivered the play of the game. Sandro exploded along the baseline for the reverse dunk over Yaxel. However, Lindenburg did bounce back, playing with a lot of hustle in this one. The Warriors rookie put up a strong all-around performance of 17 points, 5 boards, 4 assists and 2 steals while diving, jumping and fighting for every loose ball. Yaxel is one sturdy dude, and so is Danny Avdija, a.k.a. the And One Specialist. Danny was a dog against the Kings, racking up 26 points in 24 minutes on 9 of 13 from the field, completing 4 different and ones. And I don't know how Morant was able to complete this one because… Ja almost lost the ball but then somehow gathered it back and laid it in the basket. And here's one crazy wrap around pass to Kamara in the corner. In 23 minutes off the bench, Ja was super efficient and ethical, scoring 14 points on 4 of 6 shooting and dropping 6 dimes without committing a single turnover. Now that's the Ja they need. And the league as a whole desperately needed this electric duo to happen. Hunt and LaMelo turned into Splash Brothers 2.0 just 2 days ago, and I got it all right here in this video. So check it out and talk to you in the next one. Peace out.
