Tyrese Haliburton Blamed His Poor Opening Night Performance On Steph Curry Telling Him To Take Naps

When Drake rapped about hating naps I thought he was the craziest person on planet Earth, that's alien behavior. Who hates a rejuvenating afternoon nap? Have you never dozed off in the spring time with a breeze blowing through an open window and the Masters music fading out from a commercial? It's an all time feeling. If you hate catching some z's, you're catching a massive L. Turns out, Drizzy isn't the only person that hates catching some shut eye - so does Tyrese Haliburton according to last nights post game press conference. 

When the greatest 3 point shooter the league has ever seen gives you a tip to help elevate your game, you do it. Even if that bit of advice is putting bread crumbs on a turd, and snarfing it down. So getting advice that something as simple as a nap helps, it's a no brainer to try it out. Especially when Tyrese could have probably used one after a casual night partying in Vegas till 4am a few days ago. 

Unfortunately, in the season opener, Haliburton had a pretty shitty night for a super star including going 1/9 for 3. All of his shots were bricked short. He looked tired. Was this grogginess from a nap? Tired legs from a wild night with your girlfriend and her friends? All that matters is Tyrese showed up in the clutch when it mattered most, but it would be nice if we could get a heads up on whether or night he took a cat nap before I bet his overs on Draft Kings King of the Court Promo (opt in).
