"It's a blessing to lose your horse", this old saying is perfect for Pacers star Halliburton .
When he was playing for the Kings, Halliburton showed his strength with his outstanding overall view and mature playing style, but was traded by the team to the Pacers last season.
This deal was unacceptable for young Halliburton at the time, and he became frustrated and angry with the team.
But now looking at it, this deal is definitely more beneficial than disadvantages for Halliburton's personal career.
First of all, in terms of tactical status, the Kings' ball rights are basically in the hands of Fox, and the Kings also have young defenders like Xiaomi Mitchell, so Halliburton may not be regarded as the core of the team to train.
But in the Pacers, he has already developed towards the position of the team as the boss. A reporter from The Athletic said that the team regards him as the next Reggie Miller !
During his time with the Kings last season, Halliburton averaged 14.3 points, 3.9 rebounds and 7.4 assists per game. After the Pacers, his data reached 17.5 points, 4.3 rebounds and 9.6 assists, and all three data improved! Obviously, Halliburton is the kind of player who gives him more opportunities and he can give more rewards. In addition to his excellent organizational ability, his three-point shooting percentage reached an astonishing 41.6%, which is already the level of a high-quality pitcher; while controlling a large amount of ball rights, he can also control mistakes, which is definitely a rare advantage for young players.
At present, Halliburton's performance in the same class is second only to Edwards and three goals. If he can continue to play in this trend, the Pacers will definitely give him a core position. It is reasonable to renew a big contract in advance.
Do the brothers think Halliburton is expected to become an All-Star player?
