Tyrese Haliburton says his little brother was called the n-word in the stands during Game 1. It didn’t sit well with him and his family, and they had to talk through it. – 11:34 PM

Patrick Beverley has had a couple nice swipes tonight. He’s gotten Haliburton twice and now just got McConnell. – 10:31 PM

Unusual to see Carlisle use such a tight rotation with this group but it’s the right call. Just 8.
Doing so, some guys look tired. Bucks just ran off 8 straight points to draw within one.
Haliburton has 10asts, but Bucks are smothering him + making everything difficult. – 10:16 PM

Kelly Iko @KellyIko
Pacers 60, Bucks 55 at the break.
Haliburton seeing tons of pressure but Indiana still playing their offensive brand of basketball — pace, ball movement (19 assists, 2 TOs), and another strong Siakam sighting (21-7-2). – 9:38 PM

Tyrese Haliburton is amped after a three from Pascal Siakam. Almost halftime and the Pacers lead by 5. – 9:33 PM

Kelly Iko @KellyIko
Haliburton shooting just 1-for-4 from the field to start, but he’s dictating the pace in transition and semi-transition. Pacers lead 24-23 with 2:43 remaining in the first — already with four made triples (half as many as Game 1) – 8:55 PM

Tony East @TonyREast
Tyrese Haliburton gets around a screen and hits a 3 with his first shot. Just what he needed to see. – 8:38 PM

Scott Agness @ScottAgness
Bucks throw the first punch with b2b 3s. Pacers starting with Haliburton playing off the ball and Nembhard running point. – 8:38 PM

Who stepped up Game 2? D’Angelo Russell, but Nuggets stun Lakers on Jamal Murray buzzer beater.
Now all eyes on Devin Booker and Tyrese Haliburton to see how they’ll respond to subpar Game 1 efforts. #Suns #Pacers #LakeShow #NBAPlayoffs azcentral.com/story/sports/n… via @azcentral pic.twitter.com/k0fxykn74f – 11:08 AM
