Another NBA night and another recap by BM. Eleven games have been played, with the Cavs and Celtics not seeming to want to slow down their run. First defeat of the season for the Lakers. Below are all the results and their contact details.
LOS ANGELES LAKERS-PHOENIX SUNS 105-109
The first defeat arrives for the Los Angeles Lakers, who fall to the Phoenix Sans. A balanced match was staged at the Footprint Center, decided only at the end thanks to an infinite Kevin Durant, author of 30 points. For the Sans, Booker’s performance is also noteworthy, finishing with 33 points. AD’s 29 (awarded best player of the week for the West) and Reaves’ 23 are not enough for the Lakers. 11 points for LeBron, useful to extend the streak of games closed in double figures.
INDIANA PACERS-ORLANDO MAGIC 115-119
Paolo Banchero put on a show at the Kia Center, contributing to his Magic’s victory with 50 points, 13 rebounds and 9 assists. Added to these are Suggs’ 25, useful in keeping the Pacers at bay with 6 players above double figures (26 for Siakam and 19 for Haliburton).
CLEVELAND CAVALIERS-NEW YORK KNICKS 110-104
The winning streak continues for the Cleveland Cavaliers, who don’t even stop against the Knicks. Last quarter decisive for the Ohio franchise, as Darius Garland’s 34 points are decisive. For the Knicks, a little short on rotations, Brunson’s 21 are not enough.
MILWAUKEE BUCKS-BOSTON CELTICS 108-119
The Boston Celtics win again, a true steamroller of this start of the season and protagonists above all of beautiful basketball. Not even Lillard and Giannis can do anything against Brown’s 30 points and Pritchard’s 28 coming off the bench, on fire from beyond the arc (8/12). It’s time for the Bucks to clear their heads: we’re already 1-3 this season.
DETROIT PISTONS-MIAMI HEAT 98-106
Our Simone Fontecchio’s Pistons have not yet found their first victory, defeated away by the Miami Heat. Perfect evening for the Florida franchise to celebrate their unsuccessful statue of Dwayne Wade. For the Heat the best are Butler (23) and Rozier (20). For the Pistons there are Cunningham’s 24 and Hardaway Jr.’s 20, as well as Fontecchio’s 6 points, on the pitch for 22 minutes.
