It’s NBA awards season, and because of this, new voting results and awards are coming out nearly daily. This week the results for the All-Defensive teams in the NBA have come out and for the most part, the results were as expected (expect one pacer was definitely snubbed). However, there was only one Pacer that received a vote for the All-Defense team: Tyrese Haliburton.
Tyrese Haliburton received one vote for first-team All-Defense. Only Pacer to receive a vote. https://t.co/An463MUeuT

Now, don’t get us wrong, Tyrese is certainly an amazing player, although his biggest strengths are certainly on the offensive side of the ball, whereas his defense if probably good/above average at best.
