Tyrese Watch

[NewArena]

I've seen many Pacer fans say they think Tyrese has let fame and notoriety take over his mindset, as opposed to being focused on his game. Hopefully that isn't true, but, his ability to go all world one minute, before completely disappearing the next, will continue to be concerning.

Being good at being a public figure is a fundamental skill of being an NBA player. There are players that aren't good at it, but sucking at it just makes everything else harder.

As some fans insist, Tyrese is clearly not being serious about his game.

Pacer fans on Reddit are absolutely fuming at Hali

Plus, they signed him to the All-NBA super max basically off of 2 months of basketball last season.

If he doesn’t regain close to that form, his contract becomes an albatross on the Pacers for 5 years

Been three weeks and haven't heard his name much except to clown him despite him having a huge game during this stretch. Like over on reddit they are making memes just pooping all over him.

Watching game now he has 4 points entering the 4th. On twitter right now he is getting roasted as the worst contract in the NBA.

Is this turning into a Ben Simmons situation? It can't be?

I wouldn't go that far yet. But I do think that Hali has regressed back to his mean, which would be closer to a 18 pts 9 assist type PG instead to the 27 pts, 12 asst PG (for 2 months last year) that landed him that super max contract.

I loved Hali when he was a King, but he has enjoyed the lime life a little too much since his sudden "stardom" last year. He needs to get back to focusing on basketball and not worry about being a podcast star and WWE shows during the year. I had my doubts that he could become a legit #1 option on offense (i.e. 24ppg scorer) and I think we are seeing that now. He's a pass first PG and secondary scorer.
