"Cursing at me is totally unacceptable" - Giannis Antetokounmpo keeps it 100% real on altercation with Tyrese Haliburton's dad 

Giannis Antetokounmpo revealed the details of his altercation with Tyrese Haliburton's dad, John Haliburton, after the Indiana Pacers eliminated the Milwaukee Bucks for the second consecutive year.

After a hard-fought battle in Tuesday's Game 5 in Indiana, which ended with Haliburton scoring the game-winner over Giannis in overtime, the Bucks superstar and his counterpart's dad appeared to have an altercation.

Giannis came close to butting heads with Haliburton's father, but the two were separated. Initially, the two-time MVP was heavily criticized, but it appeared that Haliburton's father had taunted Giannis and started the chaos.

The Bucks superstar addressed the situation in the post-game conference. He called out Haliburton's dad for "disrespecting" him.

"Coming in the floor and showing me his son's towel, with (Haliburton's) face (saying) 'this is what we do. This is what we F'ing do. This the F we do,' .... I feel like that's very, very disrespectful," Antetokounmpo said.

"I am happy for him, I am happy for his son, I am happy that he's happy for his son," Giannis added. "That's how you're supposed to feel. But coming to me, and disrespecting me and cursing at me, I think it's totally unacceptable, totally unacceptable."

Giannis Antetokounmpo added that he would not reveal too much so that Haliburton's dad could avoid a fine, but confirmed that the two had ironed out their issues.

Tyrese Haliburton said he disapproved of his dad's spat with Giannis Antetokounmpo. The Pacers star said he learned about the situation in the locker room and spoke with his father.

"I don't think that my pops was in the right at all there. ... We will have a conversation and I'll talk to Giannis, it's unfortunate we're all grown men."

It was an emotional series as the teams had bad blood for two consecutive years, with frequent heated altercations between players. However, Haliburton felt it shouldn't have influenced his dad's decision to confront Giannis after the game, especially with the dust settled and the Pacers advancing with a 119-118 win.

Giannis Antetokounmpo dropped 30 points, 20 rebounds and 13 assists, while Tyrese Haliburton produced 26 points, five rebounds, nine assists, three steals and three blocks.
