T.J. McConnell on Tyrese Haliburton not recognizing him, Indiana Pacers run to NBA Finals
Tyrese Haliburton didn't recognize T.J. McConnell when he joined the Indiana Pacers, but he had a good reason. McConnell wrote a story for The Players' Tribune recalling the Pacers' season, which ended with a Game 7 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder in the NBA Finals. He cleared the air about a post-Game 7 moment as he headed back to the locker room ("Not my mom") and wrote about the team's approach to rallying from late deficits. He also had an anecdote about Haliburton's arrival in a trade with the Sacramento Kings in February 2022. COVID-19 protocols were still in place around the Pacers' practice facility. Get IndyStar's book celebrating the Pacers' playoff run "Alright … so I'm a 6'1" white guy in his mid-30s. In other words, I'm not exactly stopping traffic as this NBA player people recognize. And that's just me on a normal day. You can imagine, on a day when I'm wearing a hat? I'm almost definitely not getting recognized. And during COVID, when you added a mask to the mix — nah, forget it. I was pretty much fully anonymous. "And all that is to say: It's not Tyrese's fault. But on his first day in Indy after he got traded, as he was walking through the facility, he and I crossed paths. And I've got my hat on, my mask up … I'm chilling. I'm not even thinking about that, though. So of course I just go right up to him, real excited, and I'm like, 'Tyrese!!! What's up brother. How are you??? Bro, welcome to Indy. "Yeah, Tyrese did not know who I was. He was very friendly, but 1000% thought I was some guy who works on the business side. Then a few awkward seconds passed, until eventually I realized what was going on. I took my hat off, pulled my mask down, and we started laughing so hard." McConnell knows a lot of NBA fans think the Pacers are out of title contention for the 2025-26, considering Haliburton's injury and Myles Turner's departure to Milwaukee. McConnell believes everyone should have learned from the season that just ended. "Replacing Myles will be tough. Playing without Tyrese will be … whatever is tougher than tough. But you know that feeling we all started to have as the playoffs went on — how there's just something about this team? Man, I promise you: That feeling was real. "And we're going to work like hell to feel it again soon." Please read the full article here: It Was Awful, It Meant Everything by T.J. McConnell | The Players' Tribune

In their mid-60s and no longer enjoying their work, what's the best way for Tyrese and Miranda to retire?
In their mid-60s, Tyrese and Miranda 'are closing in on retirement,' Tyrese writes in an e-mail. Miranda is planning to stop working this fall and Tyrese is wondering if he can join her. They'd like to travel more while they are still relatively young and in good health. Both have managerial jobs, Tyrese earning $125,000 a year and Miranda $90,000. Neither has a company pension. They have three adult children, one still at home, and a $2.1-million house with a small mortgage in Toronto. They plan to extend the amortization on their mortgage to lower their monthly outlays. They're open to selling their house and downsizing at some point if necessary. Ideally, they'd like to give each of their children $100,000 for a down payment on a first home but they're not sure they can afford it. They had to tap into their tax-free savings accounts a couple of years ago when Tyrese was in between jobs. So the lion's share of their savings is in their registered retirement savings plans. Their retirement spending target is $9,000 a month after tax, or $108,000 a year, adjusted for inflation. 'When can we afford to retire?' Tyrese asks. We asked Warren MacKenzie, an independent Toronto-based financial planner, to look at the couple's situation. Mr. MacKenzie holds the chartered professional accountant designation. 'Tyrese and Miranda are no longer enjoying their work,' Mr. MacKenzie says. They want to retire as soon as possible and spend more time travelling. They also want to help their children financially now and leave them a little something in their estate. 'Based on their spending goals, they could retire immediately and never run out of money,' Mr. MacKenzie says. That assumes spending of $110,000 a year plus income tax, an inflation rate of 2 per cent and annual investment returns averaging 5 per cent. It assumes they live to age 100, at which point they'd leave an estate worth about $1-million with today's purchasing power. In 2026, their first full year of retirement, their income, adjusted for inflation, would break down as follows: Tyrese's Canada Pension Plan benefit $15,914; his Old Age Security $8,221; his RRSP/RRIF withdrawal $72,703; Miranda's CPP $16,229; her OAS $9,076; and her RRSP/RRIF withdrawal $64,167. That adds up to $186,310. Their cash outflow, adjusted for inflation, would be lifestyle spending of $112,000; mortgage principal and interest of $36,348; and income tax of $37,674, for a total of $186,022. The amount would be lower if they extend the mortgage amortization. Based on the current payments, the mortgage would be paid off in full by 2029. They saved feverishly and now have $3.5-million. Can Sharon, 62, retire with Craig, 64, next year? Tyrese and Miranda would like to give each of their children $100,000, which could be used as a down payment on their first home. But they do not have unregistered investments that they could readily sell to generate the $300,000 in cash. 'The funds would have to come from working longer, cashing in some of their RRSPs, or adding to the home mortgage,' the planner says. If they raise the $300,000 by withdrawing from their RRSPs over three years, they will pay income tax sooner than if they increased the mortgage, but in the long run it would be more cost-effective than adding to the mortgage and disbursing all the funds in the short term, Mr. MacKenzie says. 'They can't avoid the tax if they take the money from their RRSPs, but by taking it out sooner, they can take advantage of the low rates of tax in the lowest income-tax brackets,' he says. 'By reducing the value of their RRSPs, they reduce the possibility of Old Age Security clawback in their later years when the minimum withdrawal increases.' Another alternative would be to downsize to a $1.5-million home, give each child $100,000 and also top up their TFSAs by $100,000, Mr. MacKenzie says. After making the gift of $300,000, they are still projected to leave an estate of about $500,000, he says. The children can open First Home Savings Accounts and contribute the maximum, earning tax-free income. The children could also get a tax deduction. Some of the gift may qualify to go into a child's RRSP or unregistered investment account. 'Managing these accounts will give the children an opportunity to learn about investing,' the planner says. They'd be making their investment mistakes with relatively small amounts, thereby avoiding the potential greater losses that often occur when an inexperienced investor starts to invest a large inheritance, the planner says. A common concern for retired people is the possibility that they will incur high health care costs in their later years. 'Tyrese and Miranda believe they have a cushion to address this possibility in their spending target,' he says. For one thing, the mortgage will be paid off. 'As people age, they travel less, eat less and spend less on clothes and entertainment,' Mr. MacKenzie says. If they needed assisted living, they would sell their house. The proceeds from the sale would be more than enough to cover the cost of a retirement home. Laid off with $2.5-million in savings, should Jake and Wanda retire permanently? Their $1.8-million in RRSP investments is about 75 per cent in stocks and 25 per cent in fixed income. This asset mix is more aggressive than is required to earn an average return of 5 per cent, the planner says. One problem is that they do not know how their investment portfolios are performing compared with the appropriate benchmark. Most professional money managers believe that it's not possible to manage money wisely without knowing how performance compares with the proper benchmark. Tyrese and Miranda need to ask their adviser for a benchmark performance report or look for an advisory firm that regularly provides this information. From an income tax point of view, the two most important tax strategies will first be to convert their RRSPs to registered retirement income funds and to split RRIF income so that they are each in the same tax bracket. Secondly, they should ensure that each year they draw sufficient income from their RRIFs to use up the low-income tax brackets. In summary, when it comes to deciding when to retire, there are two schools of thought, the planner says. Some suggest working longer to build a larger financial cushion in case something goes wrong that could result in running out of money in their old age. Others consider the hidden costs of working longer than necessary – including additional stress from employment, more income tax paid and fewer years of good health to enjoy travel and retirement. 'If it appears that retiring now will give one enough to achieve one's goals, why work longer?' In Tyrese and Miranda's case, if they retire and at some point they see that they will be unable to maintain their desired lifestyle, they could easily get back on track by cutting some of their discretionary spending, Mr. MacKenzie says. The People: Tyrese, 64, Miranda, 65, and their three children, 25, 28 and 30. The Problem: Can they afford to retire this year and still give each of their children money for a down payment? The Plan: Go ahead and retire. In their first year of retirement, when their income is low, cash in some of their RRSPs to cover the gifts. Convert RRSPs to RRIFs and begin drawing from them. Review their investments to lower risk and ensure proper reporting of investment returns. The Payoff: Freedom to travel more while they are still in good health, knowing they can always cut back their lifestyle spending later if they have to. Monthly net income: $14,500. Assets: Cash $10,000; his RRSP $261,400; her RRSP (including inheritance) $1,540,500; his TFSA $126; her TFSA $1,050; residence $2,100,000. Total: $3,913,076. Monthly outlays: Mortgage $3,000; property tax $630; water, sewer, garbage $175; home insurance $120; electricity $250; heating $220; maintenance $250; garden $40; car insurance $305; other transportation $520; groceries $1,100; clothing $400; gifts, charity $250; vacation, travel $800; other discretionary $300; dining, drinks, entertainment $1,200; personal care $100; club memberships $220; golf $200; sports, hobbies $100; subscriptions $280; health care $155; health, dental insurance $200; life insurance $200; phones, TV, internet $740. Total: $11,755. Surplus goes to saving. Liabilities: Mortgage $115,000 at 4.5 per cent. Want a free financial facelift?

Doyel: Not like this. Tyrese Haliburton injury in Game 7 a cruel way to end Pacers' magic ride
OKLAHOMA CITY – Not like this. Not. Like. This. Not with Tyrese Haliburton, the MVP of the Indiana Pacers and these 2025 NBA playoffs, pounding the floor in pain and heartbreak just five minutes into Game 7 of the NBA Finals — what was left of his right Achilles' tendon somewhere back there, screaming at him, telling him it's over. Not like this. Not with Haliburton, the happiest-go-luckiest player you ever saw, literally bawling on the court, shouting out his injury to the Pacers trainers crouched inches away. He's trying to make them understand what has just happened over the madness inside the Paycom Center, where fans were still roaring about the Thunder's dunk at the other end. Not like this. Not with an ugly 103-91 loss to Oklahoma City that ends the Pacers' magical 2024-25 season — and a blowout injury to Haliburton's right leg that could gut their 2025-26 season as well. Not when Game 7 had seen Haliburton having his best start of the entire 2025 NBA playoffs — and these have been his playoffs — draining a trio of 3-pointers in 92 seconds, giving the Pacers a 14-10 lead and shutting up the loudest arena in the NBA. It was so loud here, before Haliburton got hot, that some players couldn't hear the whistle on occasion and kept playing even as others had come to a stop. It was so loud here, there was no chance to hear whatever that was that popped in Haliburton's right leg. But TV replays showed it in super slow-motion, that spot in his lower calf that rose up and wobbled ominously before going back down. Was that his Achilles' tendon? That's what everyone was diagnosing on social media, and to be sure, we've seen this before in these playoffs. Boston's Jayson Tatum popped his Achilles against New York. Milwaukee's Dame Lillard popped his against the Pacers. 'All of our hearts dropped,' Pacers coach Rick Carlisle said after the game, declining to offer a diagnosis, 'but he will be back.' John Haliburton, Tyrese's father, told ESPN sideline reporter Lisa Salters it appeared to be an Achilles injury, but now we wait. The NBA draft is in a few days, but this doesn't feel like a time for renewal, or for looking ahead. This feels like a time to mourn what just happened to Tyrese, to the Pacers, to their fans, to our city. You've got to give the Pacers credit, though. They hung around, didn't they? The Thunder led 18-16 when Haliburton suffered the injury, and before you knew it, the Pacers had rallied for a 26-25 lead early in the second quarter and then played the Thunder even into halftime. Andrew Nembhard threw a disappearing pass to Myles Turner — if it didn't disappear, you tell me how it got through all that traffic in the lane — for a layup attempt, and a foul. Nembhard scored one of those fullback layups, cradling the ball like a football player as he hit the line of scrimmage, er, the lane, before scoring at the basket. Turner scored from 17 feet. Aaron Nesmith hit a 3 after a Turner offensive rebound. Pesky little T.J. McConnell gave a hint of what was to come in the third quarter when he drove the baseline against 7-1 Chet Holmgren, decided to go back the other way before turning around — nope, I'm coming right back — and blew past the stunned Holmgren for a reserve layup on the other side of the basket. Nembhard hit a step-back 3pointer before the halftime horn, and the Pacers went into the locker room with a 48-47 lead. Haliburton was waiting for them, on crutches, where teammates comforted him. Onward the Pacers continued, tying the score at 56 early in the third quarter on a Turner 3. The Thunder were playing around, fooling around, chucking silly 3s and watching Alex Caruso fly in from the wing for an offensive rebound and trying to throw it down from a distance of 5 feet. Ever seen someone dunk from 5 feet away? Alex Caruso tried to do that. Meanwhile, T.J. McConnell. What else is there to say? He did this in Game 5, keeping the Pacers in the game in that loss at OKC. He did it again in Game 6, helping spark the Pacers to the victory that forced Game 7. And then he scored 12 consecutive points for the Pacers in the third quarter Sunday night, all of them heavily contested, most from inside 3 feet as the crowd was groaning every time he touched the ball. Because the crowd knew. T.J. McConnell, the shortest, oldest player on the court — the only one who couldn't dunk unless everyone got out of the way — was unstoppable. But the rest of the Pacers cooled down. McConnell was the only Indiana player to score in the final 8½ minutes of the third quarter. The Thunder, meanwhile, were getting points from five players to outscore McConnell — and the Pacers — 25-12 for an 81-68 lead entering the fourth quarter. And it was over. Soon it was 90-68, and while the Pacers fought back to get within 10 points — for the last time at 96-86 with 2:12 left — there was no more gas in the tank for a final surge. The Pacers, without Haliburton and with Nesmith fouled out, were on fumes. Even so, they won the fourth quarter 23-22. Carlisle wasn't talking about moral victories afterward, but he admired what he saw in those final 12 minutes. 'The fourth quarter, and the effort our guys poured into the quarter to win (it) by one point was epic,' Carlisle said, 'and it was symbolic of what this team stands for, what basketball in Indiana stands for. There was no surrender. It was all defiant fight to the end.' When it was over, Haliburton was still in the locker room, still waiting to be with his guys. Only now, he was the one comforting them. 'One of the greatest human beings I've come in contact with,' McConnell said. 'Great teammate. A lot of us were hurting from the loss, and he was up there consoling us. That's who Tyrese Haliburton is. He's just the greatest, man.' On the play that will break your heart, Tyrese Haliburton was headed to the rim. He'd hit those three straight 3-pointers, and he'd already scored nine points in five minutes. These were his playoffs, and he was about to claim Game 7 as the bookend to his Game 1, when he beat the Thunder with a buzzer-beater in this same building. And that was just the latest of his late-game dramatics in these playoffs. He hit game-winners against Milwaukee, Cleveland and Oklahoma City, also produced a 32-point triple-double with no turnovers against the Knicks — a stat line nobody had ever achieved in the NBA Finals — and hit a buzzer-beater to force overtime in another game against the Knicks, another game the Pacers won. 'He authored one of the great individual playoff runs in the history of the NBA,' Carlisle said. 'It was something that no one's ever seen – and he did it as one of 17 (team members). You know, that's the beautiful thing about him. As great a player as he is, it's always a team thing.' Haliburton, who nursed his strained calf for 72 hours to be able to play in Game 6, was looking like himself early in Game 7. He was being defended by OKC's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, an elite defender, but Haliburton blew past him and was headed to the rim when he went down, similar to the way he went down against Holmgren in Game 5 — Tyrese going this way, the ball going that way, Tyrese in obvious pain. Only this was different, worse, much worse. As the ball was headed up the court, OKC about to dunk, Haliburton was face down, screaming at the world as his Achilles screamed at him. Soon the Pacers bench was empty, everyone surrounding Haliburton, shielding him from view, but between all those legs you could see a single fist — Haliburton's fist — pounding on the floor for nearly a full minute. Haliburton was crying. Maybe you were crying too. The classy OKC crowd, once it realized the severity of the injury, quieted down until Haliburton was carried off the court. They applauded politely, and then the building went silent for the rest of the timeout. This was nearly two minutes of eerie silence. Coming out of the timeout, the building still in a daze, the arena's giant scoreboard told the crowd, "It's time to get loud." The crowd responded halfheartedly. Nobody wanted the Thunder to get an advantage. Not like this. Gilgeous-Alexander, the closest player to him, was trying to comfort Haliburton. 'My heart dropped for him,' said SGA, the reigning NBA MVP. 'I couldn't imagine playing the biggest game of my life and something like that happening. It's not fair. But competition isn't fair sometimes.' We know notfair around here, don't we? How many NFL cities have lost two franchise quarterbacks in less than a decade? First it was Peyton Manning's neck, then Andrew Luck's shoulder. How many NBA cities have seen two franchise players suffer gruesome, career-jeopardizing leg injuries? First it was Paul George's broken leg, then it was Victor Oladipo's torn quadriceps tendon. Now it's Tyrese Haliburton's Achilles, only this was different, worse, than any of the injuries before it. Game 7 of the NBA Finals? Nobody would author such a thing. Nobody wants to read that, nobody wants to write that, nobody wants to see it. In Oklahoma City, they're preparing for a parade. In Indianapolis, we're going into the 2025 NBA draft in a daze, in a way nobody saw coming. Not like this.

Tyrese Haliburton's dad confirms Pacers star suffered Achilles injury in NBA Finals Game 7
OKLAHOMA CITY – Tyrese Haliburton's father, John, confirmed to ABC and ESPN sideline reporter Lisa Salters that Tyrese has an Achilles tendon injury, Salters reported on the ABC broadcast of Game 7 of the NBA Finals. Salters said John also told her Tyrese seems to be in good spirits and that his entire family — including his mother and brother — is in the locker room with him as he's watching the game and cheering on the Pacers, who have a 48-47 halftime lead. An Achilles tendon tear tends to require a recovery time of 8-10 months. Pacers centers Isaiah Jackson and James Wiseman tore their Achilles tendons in the first eight days of the season and did not return to action in 2024-25. Haliburton was dealing with a right calf strain coming to into the game, suffering it in Game 5 of the Finals. He had been undergoing around-the-clock treatment since and opted to play in Game 6 though he was made aware that there was a risk of further injury.
