Tyrese Haliburton, Overrated? How? In What Way?

People have jokes. I came across a post on Yahoo that states Tyrese Haliburton was named the most overrated player by his NBA peers, which leads me to ask: How? In what way?

 Yes, people are entitled to their opinion, but this is the funniest thing I've seen or heard all day.

Let's take a look at this: the man orchestrates the offense, facilities (i.e., passing, making his teammates better and the game easier for them), and can score when he wants to offensively. He defends, and he's been more concerned with winning than personal stats--hopefully, he keeps that mentality.

Last season, he helped lead the Pacers to the Eastern Conference Finals. No doubt, the main aim is a championship, but that's the farthest they've been in eons.

As far as I'm concerned, he's everything you look for in a player and a point guard.

I'm not saying he's the best player in the league, heck, I'm not even saying he's the best player at his position--one of the best, definitely--but to call him overrated is laughable. If anything, I think it's the opposite.
