In a high-stakes playoff showdown, emotions boiled over between the Milwaukee Bucks and Indiana Pacers, culminating in a heated verbal exchange between Tyrese Haliburton and Damian Lillard.

During a timeout, tempers flared as Haliburton and Lillard traded heated words, resulting in double technical fouls for veteran players James Johnson and Bobby Portis Jr., exacerbating the tension.

Despite Lillard’s impressive on-court performance, including 28 points, the Bucks fell short as the Pacers clinched a decisive 120-98 victory in Game 6, securing a 4-2 series win led by Haliburton’s stellar 17 points, 6 rebounds, and 10 assists.

Haliburton didn’t hold back, further entertaining fans with a social media jab aimed at Bucks guard Patrick Beverley, who had criticized him earlier in the series. Responding to Beverley’s remarks, Haliburton mockingly referred to him as a “con man” in a post-game video on social media.

As the Pacers advance to face the New York Knicks in the next round, the Bucks reflect on their playoff exit, missing star player Giannis Antetokounmpo’s presence. Meanwhile, the Pacers brace themselves for a challenging series against the surging Knicks in front of a fervent New York crowd.
