Skip Bayless took to X sharing pessimism for the Tyrese Haliburton men. Skip Bayless wrote, “That’s it: LeBron accomplishes his mission, winning the inaugural In-Season Tournament. The Pacers took out the Celtics and Bucks for him. Now he and the Lakers will cake-walk past the Pacers. Congrats, King.”
