Patrick Mahomes’ controversial post that he decided to delete after congratulating Tyrese Haliburton on the Indiana Pacers’ comeback

It’s not all NFL in Patrick Mahomes‘ life. Another of the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback’s passions is basketball.

In fact, during his time in high school, Pat practiced this sport and on several occasions has been captured by the cameras and the eye of his fans sitting in the audience of some games.

Although this time he was not physically present, Mahomes made it known that he closely followed the first game of the Eastern Conference Finals between the New York Knicks and Indiana Pacers.

The epic comeback that the Pacers pulled off in the final minutes of the fourth quarter has not been seen in 27 years by an NBA team. Indiana managed to turn around a 14-point deficit with less than three minutes left, extending the game into overtime and beating the Knicks 138-135.

Game Recap: Pacers 138, Knicks 135

Tyrese Haliburton shined at Madison Square Garden and fueled the victory with 31 points and 11 assists, and the Chiefs’ quarterback did not miss a beat.

In his official X account, Patrick Mahomes dedicated a message to the player with only two words: “Bro stop….” and added multiple cry-laughing emojis. However, hours later, he decided to delete the post.

Haliburton’s controversial gesture

While his agonizing double-double ignited the public, what really generated repercussions was his controversial celebration: he imitated Reggie Miller’s iconic “choke sign”.

In 1994, the Indiana legend scored – in the last quarter alone – 25 points to come from behind in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals. During the game, Miller celebrated by making this gesture dedicated to Knicks fan Spike Lee in front of the entire Madison Square Garden.

Of course, this did not generate many happy faces, but it also left one of the most intense rivalries in the NBA.

In response to Tyrese Haliburton’s celebration, coach Rick Carlisle did not sugarcoat the situation and described his attitude as “unnecessary”, stating that this gesture does not represent the values he seeks to instill in his team.

Comebacks, a regular occurrence in Mahomes’ life

Despite his long career, Patrick’s latest comebacks is something that was etched in the retina and in the heart of every Chiefs fan.

In 2022, he led the team to win Super Bowl LVII after it looked like Eagles were taking it to each by a 10-point spread. They won 38-35.

The following season, the Chiefs were also down by 10 points, took the game into overtime and won 25-22.

Although he was unable to pull off another epic comeback during the Eagkes’ 40-22 win in February, Mahomes and the team are hoping to bring out their talents and fight for another ring. Will they make it?

The Nuno you don’t see at Nottingham Forest: Handpan player, diver, horse lover, ‘maniac’, worm dancer

“He was brilliant at ‘the Worm’. We used to play the Mario song Let Me Love You. Nuno would blast the volume up: ‘Let me love you! Let me be the one to…!’ Everyone in the dressing room would start clapping. And then we’d get Nuno’s dance. He’d go from one wall to the other, then reverse all the way back across a rock-hard floor. Everyone used to crack up with laughter. Ahahaha! Nuno was the king of the Worm.”AdvertisementBenni McCarthy, South Africa’s record all-time scorer, is reminiscing about his long-standing friendship with Nuno Espirito Santo and their lifelong bond as Champions League winners with Porto.“What a lot of people don’t know is that Nuno was the dressing-room joker,” says McCarthy. “He used to clown about all the time.

The Oklahoma City Thunder are an old-school juggernaut lording over a new, supposedly wide-open NBA

Imagn Images The story of these NBA playoffs has been the league's newfound and designed parity, and for good reason. The margins in this postseason field have felt virtually nonexistent. Seeds have hardly mattered, creating a perception that this championship chase is actually wide-open. But in reality, it's not. With their 118-103 victory over the Timberwolves on Thursday, the Oklahoma City Thunder, who now lead the Western Conference finals 2-0, continue to distance themselves from an otherwise evenly matched pack. The truth is, the parity of this particular race lies in the battle for second place between a bunch of good-but-not-great teams fighting to win the inches that separate them. Meanwhile, of the four teams still alive, Oklahoma City is miles ahead and well on its way, barring some sort of significant injury, to winning the title. The Timberwolves will tell themselves they're […]

Schreck für Ex-Bayern-Star – Schüsse während Coutinho-Interview!

Stellen Sie sich vor, Sie reden gerade entspannt mit jemandem, die Stimmung ist gut, die Sonne scheint. Doch plötzlich fallen in Ihrer Nähe Schüsse.

Er trägt das schwarz-weiße Trikot des Klubs, lächelt in die Kamera. Plötzlich erklingen im Hintergrund mehrere kurze Knalle direkt hintereinander. Dann ist eine kurze Pause und kurz danach sind wieder die Geräusche zu hören. Bei allen soll es sich um Schüsse handeln. Was für ein Schreck!

Como nova eleição na CBF dividiu o futebol brasileiro e promete reorganização de forças entre clubes

A tentativa de mobilização dos 40 clubes das Série A e B para eleger um candidato que os representasse na eleição da CBF fracassou. E escancarou um futebol brasileiro mais rachado. Do total, 21 clubes se mantiveram unidos e vão boicotar o pleito como forma de protesto, entre eles Flamengo e Fluminense. Na contramão, Vasco, Botafogo e Palmeiras se alinharam a 25 das 27 federações e ao candidato único, Samir Xaud. No meio termo, estão clubes como Atlético-MG, um dos que se viu ameaçado de perder patrocínios no meio da disputa. Nos bastidores, a pressão de federações e empresas que bancam clubes e campeonatos afastou algumas adesões ao boicote. O objetivo dos clubes que sobraram é não repetir a unanimidade fabricada na manutenção de Ednaldo Rodrigues no comando da CBF, agora rejeitada na Justiça, e deixar claro que a candidatura […]

O que é SPE? Entenda a votação desta sexta no Vasco e importância para a reforma de São Januário

O Vasco realiza hoje, das 9h às 19h, em Assembleia Geral Extraordinária, votação pela abertura de uma Sociedade de Propósito Específico (SPE). O rito é parte importante do processo da sonhada reforma de São Januário. Em caso de aprovação entre o quadro social, o que deve acontecer com tranquilidade, o clube pode de fato começar a buscar e manejar os recursos financeiros para as obras no estádio, que completará 100 anos em 2027. A SPE, na prática, é uma empresa. Como o nome diz, com a finalidade específica de gerir os trâmites da obra. Vale lembrar que o Vasco arrecadará os fundos financeiros da reforma por meio da venda do potencial construtivo, ou seja, o "direito de construir" na área da Colina, conforme aprovado e tramitado nos poderes Legislativo e Executivo do município do Rio de Janeiro. Assim que a […]

Líder silencioso e com renovação encaminhada, Varela recebe voto de confiança no Flamengo

Como Wesley está suspenso para o confronto entre Palmeiras e Flamengo, pelo Brasileirão, havia expectativa de que o lateral-direito fosse o titular diante do Botafogo-PB, pela Copa do Brasil, mas Filipe Luís optou por Varela. A aposta se pagou, com o uruguaio sendo um dos melhores jogadores em campo na vitória por 4 a 2, e ganhando um voto de confiança antes do duelo de titãs no Allianz Parque neste domingo.
