INDIANAPOLIS -- After missing Saturday's win over the Miami Heat with an upper respiratory infection, Indiana Pacers superstar Tyrese Haliburton didn't look like himself in the first half of Monday's In-Season Tournament quarterfinal here against the Boston Celtics.
"The first half, I was dead," Haliburton would say later.
So, at halftime, Haliburton -- at the behest of the training staff -- did something he's never done before: he used an inhaler.
As a result, when the second half started, he looked like himself again -- and the Pacers looked like a totally different team.
