Two teams brought to challenge themselves at a time in playoffs and two training courses that share the same ambition, the title. The poster of the evening held its promises-with two entire groups-and turned to the advantage of Boston, who needed an extension to finally win the New York prosecutor&#39;s office (117-119). Five additional minutes torn by Jayson Tatum from a decisive three-point shot 2 seconds from the buzzer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mt-3 first:mt-0 lg:mt-4\">\n<p>The All-Star winger was hot and finished with 32 points. The other great craftsman of this beautiful victory being Kristaps Porzingis. The Latvian made a festival behind the arc. He planted 8 award -winning baskets, including the one who gave the last advantage to his family 40 seconds from the end of the extension. He scored 34 points in total. Even figure on the clock for his opposite Karl Anthony Towns, who added 14 rebounds. It was not enough for the Knicks, who made the choice not to make mistakes on the last possession of the fourth quarter despite their 3 length advance. They could have sent a Celtics player to the free throw line to let their opponents come back to a point. Tatum therefore punished afterwards.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mt-3 first:mt-0 lg:mt-4\">\n<p>The reigning champions won their four duels with the Knicks this season but it was the tightest. The other three turned quite clearly in favor of the Massachusetts franchise.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><h2 class=\"mb-3 mt-10 text-onLight-02 caps-s3-rs font-bold\" data-testid=\"atom-body-h2\">The player: Giannis antetokounmpo leads the superb comeback of the Bucks<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"mt-3 first:mt-0 lg:mt-4\">\n<p>Minnesota had a probability of winning estimated at 99.9% 10 minutes from the end of his duel with Milwaukee. The Timberwolves then led 24 lengths (71-95). Except that they cashed an absolutely unlikely 3-34 behind. Giannis Antetokounmpo launched his own on the path of this fantastic rise. He also finished it, on the free throw line. With a new triple-double to the key: 23 points, 13 rebounds and 10 assists.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mt-3 first:mt-0 lg:mt-4\">\n<p>Kevin Porter Jr was also decisive during this incredible fourth quarter of the Wisconsin franchise. He put the bulk of his 21 points in the last minutes. The replacement leader also took the beak with Rudy Gobert (6 points, 9 rebounds) and the two players received a technical fault after being separated. Milwaukee notably recorded the return of suspension (for doping) of Bobby Portis. The sixth man immediately found his ease and scored 18 points out of the bench.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><h2 class=\"mb-3 mt-10 text-onLight-02 caps-s3-rs font-bold\" data-testid=\"atom-body-h2\">To the state: 51<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"mt-3 first:mt-0 lg:mt-4\">\n<p>Like the number of victories of 10 points or more garnered by the Thunder this season. It&#39;s unheard of. A new NBA record when there are still three games to play for Oklahoma City, which won its 65th victory of the season by beating Los Angeles (136-120). Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (42 points) and his teammates took revenge after being beaten by the Lakers in the last match. The Angelenos shot each other in the foot. Finally, especially Luka Doncic.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mt-3 first:mt-0 lg:mt-4\">\n<p>The Slovenian could not contain his frustration and took a second technical fault just under 8 minutes from the end of the game. His team then led one point (107-108)! Everything collapsed after its release. The Thunder finished on a 29-12 to finally prevail quite clearly. Gilgeous-Alexander therefore dominated the debates, but he was well supported by the 26 points of Jalen Williams and the 5 awarded baskets of Luguentz Dort. Doncic finished with 23 points while LeBron James and Austin Reaves put 28 and 25 but without succeeding in carrying the Lakers following the expulsion of their teammate.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><h2 class=\"mb-3 mt-10 text-onLight-02 caps-s3-rs font-bold\" data-testid=\"atom-body-h2\">Performance: Ivica Zubac still in 20-20<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"mt-3 first:mt-0 lg:mt-4\">\n<p>Fourth game of the season at least 20 points and 20 rebounds for Ivica Zubac, one of the most underestimated players in the whole NBA. The Croatian pivot was decisive (24 points, 20 rebounds) for the Clippers, Spurs winners. Nicolas Batum brought his dough with 9 points out of the bench for Los Angeles. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><h2 class=\"mb-3 mt-10 text-onLight-02 caps-s3-rs font-bold\" data-testid=\"atom-body-h2\">The French: Alex Sarr excellent on both sides of the field<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"mt-3 first:mt-0 lg:mt-4\">\n<p>Very solid performance by Alexandre Sarr during the short defeat of the Wizards against the Pacers (104-98). He scored 20 points while taking 12 rebounds and dropping 6 assists. Also with 3 blocks! A full match from the second choice of the draft. The player drawn just before him last June, Zaccharie Risacher was not so successful last night. He only played 16 minutes for 8 points. The Hawks lost an important match against the Magic (119-112).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mt-3 first:mt-0 lg:mt-4\">\n<p>Tidjane Sala\u00fcn passed him very close to double-double during the defeat of the Hornets against the Grizzlies (100-124). The former Choletais scored 13 points and added 9 rebounds but also 3 assists. His teammate Moussa Diabat\u00e9 finished with 10 points. The meeting was mainly marked by the wound of the Rookie of Memphis Jaylen Wells, who broke his wrist following a very heavy fall. The young man stayed on a long time on the ground before being escorted in the hospital. In all, the match was arrested for twenty minutes. Wells is fine, even if a long rehabilitation is now waiting for him.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><h2 class=\"mb-3 mt-10 text-onLight-02 caps-s3-rs font-bold\" data-testid=\"atom-body-h2\">All scores<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"mt-3 first:mt-0 lg:mt-4\">\n<p>Hornets \u2013 Grizzlies\u00a0: 100-124<br \/>Cavaliers \u2013 Bulls\u00a0: 135-113<br \/>Pacers \u2013 Wizards\u00a0: 104-98<br \/>Magic \u2013 Hawks\u00a0: 119-112<br \/>Nets \u2013 Pelicans\u00a0: 119-114<br \/>Knicks \u2013 Celtics\u00a0: 117-119<br \/>Bucks \u2013 Timberwolves\u00a0: 110-103<br \/>Thunder \u2013 Lakers\u00a0: 136-120<br \/>Suns \u2013 Warriors\u00a0: 95-133<br \/>Clippers &#8211; Spurs : 122-117<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[ad_2]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] The match: Boston finally dismisses New York after extension Shock at the top between the Celtics and the Knicks, respectively second and third in the east.
