The NBA playoffs of 2024 saw the New York Knicks and Indiana Pacers face off in a riveting second-round series that lasted seven games. This clash between the two teams rekindled their fierce rivalry from the 1990s, with the added intensity of a matchup between All-Star point guards Jalen Brunson and Tyrese Haliburton. Despite not always guarding each other on the court, these two exceptional point guards are among the best in the league and have a bright future ahead of them in terms of playoff battles.
In an attempt to keep their feud alive beyond the basketball court, Brunson and Haliburton took their rivalry to new heights during WWE SmackDown at Madison Square Garden. Although Haliburton was met with hostility from the crowd due to being in Brunson’s home arena, this intense staredown between the two occurred during a “Money in the Bank” qualifying match involving other WWE stars.
As the match progressed, Brunson couldn’t resist jumping into the ring when Haliburton intended to pass brass knuckles to Logan Paul for use in the match. In what seemed like an unlikely encounter, a steel chair and brass knuckles took center stage instead of basketball statistics. Ultimately, LA Knight emerged victorious after a dramatic reversal of a pin attempt by Paul.
Both Brunson and Haliburton embraced their roles in this wrestling encounter, with Haliburton playing the villain and taunting the crowd while Brunson exuded intensity and readiness for battle. The spectacle of their wrestling encounter raises questions about whether their next NBA playoff matchup between these two teams will be able to live up to this level of intensity witnessed during “SmackDown.” Only time will tell if this rivalry will continue to heat up on both sides of sports.
