Washington, April 10 (Prensa Latina) While the Boston Celtics comfortably await the conclusion of the regular schedule today, located at the top of the NBA’s Eastern Conference, in the West a strong dispute for leadership between three teams is predicted.
Nuggets and Wolves will clash precisely this Wednesday in a key match to define positions in the regular stage, as both teams are currently tied, while the Thunder are lurking with just one less victory, with only three games remaining for each quintet.
Those from Oklahoma must take advantage of the fact that they face the bottom San Antonio Spurs today to take advantage of the pitched “battle” that is looming tonight at the Ball Arena in Denver.
Once this day has expired, the Nuggets led by coach Mike Malone will have to face two already eliminated opponents, the Memphis Grizzlies (third to last) and the Spurs, owners of the basement; Meanwhile, the Wolves will play their last games against the Atlanta Hawks, qualified for the play-in in the East, and the Phoenix Suns, who are still fighting for a direct spot in the playoffs.
