Tyrese Haliburton on NBA All-Star, 3-point contest, Pacers & more! | The Pat McAfee Show

Ladies and gentlemen all right NBA Allstar representing your Indiana Pacers one of the most electrifying basketball players to ever touch a basketball court ladies and gentlemen Tyrese Albert baby whoaa watch hey man up dude thank you for coming dude absolutely hell yeah excited about being here good fit hey you are

Hey listen the way you play basketball is phenomenal you’re fun to watch off the backboard the pass thing you made this nol look pass whenever I was at the game against Utah Jazz maybe from like foul line to the other foul line you are everything that the Indiana Pacers have

Needed and wanted for a long time Kendrick Perkins though told me you don’t play any defense well that’s what he just said that’s literally what he just said kri bin said he said I can’t be the best point guard in our conference because it’s the system that

I’m in what’s that mean you should have asked him I don’t know well I didn’t know that was a question next time he’s on I’ll ask that question Kendrick asked me to ask you he said there’s two sides of you the Pacers team we’re just we

Light up the scoreboard that is the team that we have well I mean yes we do do that uh lately we’ve been guarding a little better our offense has kind of dropped a little bit so we’re trying to figure out how we can balance both of

Them how do you feel about the team I know spicy PE coming in has obviously been a big part of the storyline here around Indianapolis because this city loves basketball feel good about where the Pacers are yeah I’m excited to have um obviously he came back I was hurt and

Then I tried to come back and I got hurt again and it’s just been uh just trying to get my health right through this break this break is going to be good for me uh hopefully we’re we’re all healthy coming uh after Allstar break and we can

Make a playoff push okay so we talked Adam Silver yesterday and we talked to him about the 65 game rule because of you you’re one of the big storylines of that entire thing and he said let’s revisit it after the season and you’ll still be able to go how do you feel

About how your body is you say health you’re getting a little rest but you’re also competing in a three-point shooting contest as well how do feel down the stretch uh obviously you’re going to have to play a lot of games for a lot of incentives and a lot of things like that

Do you feel the pressure of that how does the body feel what do you think um every day is a little bit better um there’s certain times in games where you know I might feel a little a little nag or something like that but just got to

Get through the game and I mean listen at the end of day if the 65 game rule wasn’t a thing I still try to be playing right now trying to help us win games so um yeah I mean I’m I’m I’m feeling better every day and just trying to get

Through this break get to the second half of the Season how do we feel about the three-point shooting contest I feel really good about it o really good I just came from practice just came from practice and what we got big buckets down here yeah yeah yeah yeah well last

Year I had the record and then I choked in the second round choked in the championship so I just got to be more consistent this year that’s okay what’s the mindset cuz it’s it’s three rounds two rounds so everybody shoots the first round then the top three or top four go

To the second round and then that’s the championship do you get tired well you know last year I was like I think the third person to shoot the first time and then I was waited for everybody to shoot and then I was the last one cuz I had

The highest score so I feel like they kind of iced oh you got yeah iced me that’s crap that is absolute crap Home Run Derby like for baseball they have that the batting cage underneath they should have a hoop somewhere on the side where you can can stay warm well you

Know I got a little arrogant too like after I got iced and Buddy and Dame went and shot and I think the record they hit was like 19 and through every practice round my low score was like 24 so when Dame shot 19 I looked at buddy and said

It’s over thank you for coming and then I went up there and I didn’t make a shot I completely it was awful Conor’s got a question for you Tyreek tyres one thing that it feels like for you specifically like you’re cool with everybody in the

NBA I feel like and I don’t know if you’re like the spokesperson for everybody like you were on Old Man in the three I think that was yesterday or a couple days ago when you talked about the 65 game rule do you feel like the Pacers and yourself included like you

Guys don’t really have like a rival per se in in the NBA just because you guys all are such good people or or what do you think about that aspect of it well I think it’s I mean at the end of the day sports are about winning you know and I

Don’t think we’ve we haven’t played played in necessarily super competitive games you haven’t made a playoff push as a team yet you know so I think if you asked around the league right now they’d probably say our rival our rival is the Bucks because of all the extra stuff

That’s happened this season uh but I mean they’re proven Champions I’ve never played a playoff game so I don’t want to call it a real rivalry yet but I mean I hope we play in the playoffs and it could have a little bit more juice to it

That’d be cool what year is this for you this is year four okay so you weren’t in Indiana at first right no I was in sack y you’re in sack then you come to Indiana and then you immediately be it feels like this a fresh team cuz I’ve

Obviously been here for now since 2009 quick math 15 years so Roy Paul George Lance that whole team obviously had great runs and then we ran into the heatles every single year seemingly and then the Pacers kind of I mean like completely out of conversation now we’re filling up the arena gamebridge has

Filled up again right do you feel the support of Indianapolis and Indiana is there a buzz like okay we got a team that we can really run and do some stuff 100% I feel that all throughout the city to be honest like uh even with what the

Cults are doing with with with getting a rich and and and that group I think is exciting too uh but for us I think that for so long after peeing those guys left and zonis is a great player and they had other guys but like I think for the more

Casual basketball fan it wasn’t necessarily appealing you know like yeah post basketball is not appealing unless it’s joic or Joel or Shaq you know what I mean like you have two different voices I do people say that all the time did you hear I mean this is I I didn’t

Know if it was our microphone I never catch it you know I watch podcast after and I’m like dang my voice changed I I don’t M sentence yeah did you guys I didn’t do I wrote it down two different voices wrote it down it just happened it just happens that way naturally

Sometimes it’s pretty cool it’s like uh you know Lil Wayne talked about how Drake can sing and rap yeah he’s like okay he can rap and then he can sing in the in the chorus if you need to you almost have that like you can you can accent yourself with a different voice

You don’t control it though no I don’t contr I have no control over it it just happens Are you a chirper on the court I am a chirper on the court I like to think so yeah okay so we’re talking a lot of yeah I think so anybody on

The other side that you’ve ever got into some verbal tussles with that you have massive respect for um you know what I would say I would say Dylan Brooks and I say that to say I think that Dylan Brooks is an elite competitor in the league and he obviously gets paid to

Defend and one thing that he does is he doesn’t duck smoke he takes on all challenges on a nightly basis but uh yeah we we’ve had a little a couple verbal battles this year it’s been a lot of fun okay I enjoy that so basketball people yeah NBA guys you guys know each

Other since you’re little kids in aaou yeah and you kind of know who’s going to be the NBA guys is that an accurate for sure yeah I think that that is usually how it goes so you know all the guys pretty much in the NBA I would say so

Yeah is that the reason why there isn’t as much smoke maybe as there used to be because you guys all kind of know like Hey we’re going to be the ones that are going to be carrying the NBA even as like teenagers seemingly yeah I think I

Think so I think we all grow up together we know each other from being kids and um you know like there’s guys in the NBA who I’ve known literally since I was like like me and Tyler hero we were on a teams together we’re in fifth grade like

I know all his you know what I mean I know his whole family and that’s just somebody back home but not to include other guys around the league who I’ve literally played against my whole life you know what I mean so I think that you just get to know people through the

Course a tournaments you’re in hotels together you’re 13 14 years old run around a hotel going to the pool play we’re going to be millionaires awesome that is awesome is that why you won’t play defense against him or was that might be the problem that drick Parker said that didn’t he yeah he

Did he said you got to ask him too yeah he said I want you to ask Tyrese How bur why he doesn’t understand there’s two sides of the floor or whatever when there championships so is that narrative about you guys yeah it is it is why why

Is that the Nar I don’t like that I don’t know especially cuz I like you as a human I appreciate that you know I think Shaq said it best around the n Season tournament we’re not we were 28th and whatever we were in defense at the

Time we just need to get enough timely stops at the right times how can we get enough stops at the right time to go on a little R hey that inseason tournament was awesome for you yeah come on that we look we look good right you enjoyed that

Oh that was a lot of fun bro in Vegas too like the the worst part about I mean it’s hard like basketball football they’re not necessarily neutral location Sports you know like the Super Bowl is more of a spectacle but like the only problem with n tournament was you get to

The championship and like I’m expected to get fans from the Pacers to fly from Indie to Vegas and two days to go to a game yeah where like La they drove three hours like it was nothing but Lakers fan okay A little bit of an away game it was

It was but that’s not why they were they were the better team but yeah yeah no it was it was it was it was a lot of fun in there we’re wrapping up our ESPN program we will continue on YouTube in ESPN plus with Tyrese halberton who will be

Competing in the Three-Point Contest on Saturday night at the NBA allar game here in Indianapolis Indiana we’ll be back tomorrow with a Feelgood Friday be a friend tell a friend something nice it might change your life goodbye 15300 is when we were out there so mid conversation you’re given a great

Answer I didn’t know how long you were going to go I didn’t know if that other voice was going to show up either so we were going to have to figure out how to get there that’s nice we did it thank you that’s point guard I mean we’re

Doing uh the whole speaking of tone Diggs got a question for you yeah I got a question about the All-Star game on Sunday has is there a group a group text or have you guys had a conversation yet about you know there was always the the

The in the past where you know there was the one-on-one matchups there it would get a little ratcheted up in the fourth quarter has there been talk yet about how it’s handled uh going into Sunday night’s game I don’t think so I don’t think so I think uh the NBA has made a

Big emphasis on us taking this game more seriously so you guys you guys have heard that yes uh there was actually they met with every team at the start of the year because they wanted everybody to take the inseason tournament serious because it’s the first year and they

Wanted all the allst stars to take the game more serious so what does that mean um just to be more competitive because I guess the ratings were down last year for the All-Star Game oh no because nobody took it serious but you know what I will say Yannis didn’t play and that

Affected it a lot because Giannis has one speed Giannis is going to go 150% at all times so when that guy sets the tone everybody kind of goes that way well he didn’t play so I feel like all everybody’s coasting it was my first All-Star game so I was just happy to be

There I was like I’ll do whatever what every doing is it like if if LeBron then sets the tone on the other side for for the west then like I assume that like him LeBron setting the tone and Janis setting the tone I don’t think any of us

Are expecting four quarters no no no I don’t think any of expecting four quarters I mean how can you well I mean his competition are keeping score and you know there’s a lot of guys on the roster that’s what people say you get to be there yeah there’s a bunch of the

Cliche things but like I think we do I don’t think anybody’s expecting all four quarters I think just towards the end like want to have some moments you know from the allstar game it sounds like there’s a chance that that takes place this year 100% 100% uh usually you know

In the fourth quarters and I think they do the like the Elam ending where it’s like they set a point you got to you know get to it to win uh but yeah I I’m I got planted some highlights for myself I’m I’m excited for how old are you I’m

23 turned 24th the month okay well happy birthday happy birthday happy birthday Ty happy birthday Ty happy birthday what does that mean every four years 29th February 29th oh really I’m turning six damn you’re the youngest Allstar in the history of the N Cambridge C Cambridge look at oh going

The opposite direction the um so like it feels like the Next Generation in the NBA though solid right we feel very good about the future of basketball and everything 100% 100% I think the cool part about it is you see all the young guys starting to come in but like

LeBron’s not slowing down Steph’s not slowing down KD’s not slowing down so I think the passing of the torch is a little over over talked about but you know it’ll come eventually those guys will I mean I don’t think LeBron those guys can play till their 50 but I mean

They defy the odds every day so where you from originally Asos Wisconsin okay shout out to Wisconsin sir and shout out to United States of America yes sir now a lot of international players coming in what does that do for the League what does that do for you do you guys have to

Play different because like these big whites come in hey they’re coming in and they’re showing clips of like what they grow up playing in with like you got players and torches and like it’s insane right they’re playing like professionals as like 13 14 15 is that change anything with American basketball growingup what

What do we what do you think about the future of that I think that they come in with just such a knowledge for the game and understand how to play the way and I think that that not only affects the NBA but also the feeba level as well like

You talk about what the dream team has done for the game of basketball playing internationally and everybody seing that now you got guys like joic Luca zonis sangun is coming up you got a lot of guys who are Wy like kind of progressing the game so I think what it does is make

Our sport even bigger I would say behind soccer we’re probably the second biggest sport in the world top to bottom and I think that that increases viewership and just increases the talent level have you done any International trips where you get do camps anywhere I play well I just

Played World Cup last year and you know the goal is to play in the Olympics this summer so H yeah are you on the team uh well they announced the top whatever 30 40 guys and they’ll announce the team um I’m assuming here soon so we’ll see he

Was the best one last year he basically carried United States last year oh yeah you and Reeves yeah well carried us to a fourth place finish so nothing nothing exciting what the is that TR trust me I know I know who did we lose to we lost to Lithuania oh

Fidus that guy’s a player we lost to Canada in the third place game Canada and Germany we can’t lose the Canada Canada’s good Canada’s good now they are better at at basketball now they’re good yeah they gotg Steve Nash playing what do we talked about we’ll

Get him again this summer we’ll get him again this summer we’re excited about it no they’re saying they’re going to get you guys again that’s a good we we’re all excited for it they had I mean they I’m bummed out about that I just learned we lost to Canada in basketball I didn’t

Know that was possible kid they did was oh I’m sorry he in the NBA Ed will be though hey I’ve seen Edy he’s huge massive human being level how about he played UCF yeah heas played basketball back in the day what do you think about the size like you got to be

Born to be in the NBA right don’t you think you have to have it I think so I think what’s funny is people always like dang you’re tall but like I’m one of the smaller dudes on the team I’m 6’5 and like there’s a lot of guys taller I play

Point guards a lot of dudes taller than me so uh yeah I feel like you got to be you got to be born that way but there’s other guys who Define the odds TJ McConnell other guys like that Pittsburgh grats abolute dog you love

Your team I love my team I love my team locker room good locker room good yeah we got a lot of good guys do they all want Cody to finish his story or what I I think so we talk about it pretty regularly everybody comes to me for the

Updates everybody wants to come to me like I’m the you’re WWE guy I’m a big WWE guy you want him to finish the story I do want him to finish the story I hope that we get Hollywood Rock back you’re Mark think can we get the theme song

Feet away from me I’m like holy we got Heel Rock and then Cody came at you with the Nuggets line and hey what’s that all about you were you you were flustered there in a moment that was I yeah I thought I was pretty calm

Composed I was like oh man I don’t know what he’s going to respond I thought they were going to give you a mic yeah they just let him continue I don’t know if the arena heard what I said but they did see my face and I gu I guess they

Showed some highlights of him when he was talking with Micah yeah he had 40 on Hae haak heard yeah the second guy in Miami yeah I watched the Highlight he was pulling up he he has been very open about being the best basketball play every football player thinks they can

Hoop not everyone no okay not you I can shoot I mean I but right now I can you from here it’s easy you know I me I can’t now it’s on time you didn’t feel that in college every football player was like and I’m nice oh oh for you tyres first one that’s

Game or celebrity allstar game oh okay okay so the beef is is starting to the Pacers beef well Adam Silver came yeah he’s he’s no he didn’t squash it no it’s in the football stadium and it’s the NBA okay still what what what needs to be done tell me what needs to what

Can we do well Tyrese you need to give me an offer give me a going to need going to need 16 10day contracts uh for all the boys we have open roster spot we can keep cycling through that we need zto to be an equipment manager for

Releas I want I gave a Jersey today he got a I just gave baby baby that’s a shocker I need zitto I need zitto on the uh on the broom on the BR I can hey there’s some things I can I can make happen so let’s figure it out no you

Need to stop playing the style of basketball you play why cuz it’s ruining who I am as a human with the Pacers like that is Real Deal qu being so exciting yeah and electrifying you want me to tell you truth again I’m usually the face at home but when I heard you were

Coming to the game with the Jazz owner I was like I’m a heal today I was like we’re winning this game no matter what you guys did too yeah he Brian Smith didn’t I have the greatest night down hell he’s good guy though he’s a good

Guy though good guy good guy that was the first text I ever got from you was the first text I ever got from you I got to text you come to the game tonight and I responded yep with the Jazz orderer I think I told you right I don’t think I

Replied after that no you did that that’s awesome that’s my first time back I think for a Pacers game in like years like years that I told you bro we got I got court side te for you you just come on no I’ll buy them I’ll

Support the why you don’t have to you said my mom would love just s that’ be hey your family’s awesome I think they’re pretty cool your dad your dad came up to me your dad came up to me I think had the WWE event he was like Pat

Love you man and then as we dapped up he said don’t you ever speak bad about my son and I was like who dad is this I didn’t even know who dad I didn’t know whose Dad it was like that’s uh Tyrese halberton Dad I’m like okay love

Love this gu L that was a time what a great time that was fast lane was amazing yeah fast lane was awesome Indianapolis is a great host I think Allstar Weekend is going to be phenomenal here raw is here in June yes great trying to get Mania we’re trying

To get WrestleMania bad I’m I’m all I’m all for it I’ll I’ll miss a game if I have to we need to host uh the NBA Finals as well yeah I’m with come on let’s do it legitimately real expectations because the way NBA conversations happen there’s like four

Teams potentially that could go win it yeah the way the NBA set up any team could win in the end yeah I think this is the most parody you’re seen in our league probably ever like nobody knows I mean Boston and Denver are the two heavy favorites everybody would say they

Expect to see them in the finals but anything can happen I mean I think that’s the exciting part about our league right now there it is that was two voices was it yeah yeah you know sometimes when I lock in it comes down oh okay and when I get excited it comes

Back up maybe it’s e and flows AJ’s got a question for uh from antican Ohio Packers Legend Packers Legend yes hey yeah there was yeah was I was listening to hear the second voice we just got a little bit so that was nice you I think

You can control it maybe it feels like but going back to your uh your Three-Point Contest situation is there any worry from basketball players hey this is going to mess up my shot for the regular season I’m thinking of like baseball players doing the Home Run Derby and they think it messes their

Swing up I don’t think so I think it’s just you have to practice because you got to know how to grab the ball from the rack you know like I think there’s like a science to it that’s such a small thing like sometimes you like that first

Ball you can just grab it right but by the by the third or fourth ball I I touch it with my right hand and roll it to the front of the rack to grab it but some guys would reach all the way back and grab it so someone should roll it to

The front I think don’t you think as you shoot shouldn’t someone be there rolling them each to the front I don’t think anybody’s allowed to touch the ball oh there rolls around I don’t think anybody’s allowed to so I have to reach back roll it and shoot it so I think

That I don’t I don’t feel that way I feel like uh it’s just about getting your pace down like some people shoot slower than others so you got to you know understand how many how many seconds can you let go of the ball and really stare at it and look at it and

What’s the right time to just get it are you able to watch it go through or no I think so I shoot pretty quick yeah I feel like got to hit the money balls the money balls last rack four poin last rack the so how is it it’s not the fifth

Ball at each rack so it’s the so it’s you pick where your money rack is so most people pick the last rack which one’s yours last rack last rack of course four four regular basketballs those are all worth one point Money Ball at the back is two points so there five

Spots and then there’s two uh I think it Three-Point Contest is presented by star I think this year still a company is it star you got to grab that’s the four three-point ball that’s a deep one you got to make those for three points and those are both the slots okay okay well

Hey go win it hey I’m I’m I’m I’m going to do my best you a Packers fan I um you know I have a long history with the Packers oh o i was a diard Brett farre fan back in the day I know yeah okay okay we’ll go for football player

Football player football player yes yeah yeah yeah um and then when he went to the Vikings I wore a Brett Favre Jersey to a football game to a preseason football game with Tyler hero we went to the game together and I’ll never forget some old drunk dude was like you I

Was like nine years old and I was like I will never cheer for the Packers again I hate them okay and in that moment I decided that and then I hated them for a little bit far retired it’s kind of a football free agent for a little bit my

Dad’s a DieHard Cowboys fan soid decided to be a Cowboys fan for like a year or two wasn’t fun yeah and then uh got drafted then left Wisconsin and I was like you know what I could cheer for the Packers now and I started cheering for

The Packers and my boy Brock pie went to college together so I’m like I’m kind of a Packers ners at this point okay the CTS hey abely c yeah you did great on the saw on the yeah I was there it’s it’s stressful right yeah you don’t

Believe that no you miss if you miss you’re Miss it’s a big what’s your hit what the adult Tyrese you’re not going to miss it you’re a professional athlete you’re not I think that in golf too and then I swing it up my back yeah but golf ball the golf ball is this
