– Signed Luka Doncic ! In a superb match, the Dallas Mavericks beat the Milwaukee Bucks (136-132) after overtime. Author of the 17th triple double of his season, the Slovenian has thus compiled 36 points, 19 assists (career record), 14 rebounds and high-class actions to lead his family to victory. A performance never seen in the history of the NBA. In front, Giannis Antetokounmpo (34 points, 13 rebounds) and Brook Lopez (34 points, 7 rebounds) were however very strong. But Luka Doncic therefore forced the decision! Well supported by Dorian Finney-Smith (27 points) and Kristaps Porzingis (26 points, 11 rebounds), the prodigy will be at the origin of a decisive 17-0 straddling the 4th quarter and overtime. A genius.

Luka Doncic, a (new) triple-double for history!

– The Milwaukee Bucks have one of the best defenses in the NBA. In this domain, Brook Lopez stands out as an essential piece. And yet, Luka Doncic had fun with him. With this feint, the leader of the Dallas Mavericks has totally caught his opponent …

– Luka Doncic was not the only one to shine … TJ Warren did his show again! Against the Los Angeles Lakers, the winger was incredible to offer the victory to the Indiana Pacers (116-111). Despite the return of LeBron James (31 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists), the Angelenos were once again very inconstant. Like a Anthony Davis (8 points to 3/14 on shots) very clumsy. Despite a largely domineering bench with a Quinn Cook (21 points) in form, the Lakers cracked in the money-time. Finally, TJ Warren (39 points) made the Lakers crack! Already huge during the first quarter (18 points), he was thus exceptional with 7 points with the last 90 seconds to fold the match. Malcolm Brogdon (24 points) and Victor Oladipo (21 points) also supported him well. What a festival for TJ Warren in this bubble!

– The level of the Lakers, we will have to talk about it seriously … This is the third defeat in a row for the Angelenos. And the problems are really everywhere! Defensively, offensively, collectively, individually … Even the return of a LeBron James concerned was not enough against the Pacers. Anthony Davis in particular will seriously have to raise his level of play. There were some interesting sequences all the same, especially from the bench with Quinn Cook and Dwight Howard. As the Playoffs approach, we have to wake up.

– Even with hindsight, it is still difficult to understand how the Portland Trail Blazers let the victory slip away against the Los Angeles Clippers (117-122). Without Kawhi Leonard, but also Patrick Beverley and Montrezl Harrell, the Californian franchise had decided to do without the services of Paul George (21 points), Lou Williams (12 points) and Marcus Morris (15 points) in the money-time of this hooked part. The clear path for easy success for the Blazers? Gary Trent Jr (22 points) and Carmelo Anthony (21 points) were also present to support Damian Lillard (22 points) and CJ McCollum (29 points).

Portland had a 4-point lead 4 minutes from time against a Los Angeles C team. Then the disaster. Wasted possessions, stupid mistakes, an award-winning shot of the improbable Rodney Mcgruder then two free throws and a long-distance shot missed by Lillard… And therefore an incredible loss for the Blazers. It is likely to leave traces in the race for the Playoffs in the West!

– Between Damian Lillard and the Clippers, it’s tense! During the two decisive free throws missed by the leader of the Blazers, Patrick Beverley and Marcus Morris made fun of him with gestures and shouting « It’s Dame Time ». Paul George also then chambered him at the end of the game by waving him goodbye. Lillard’s response? “I’ve sent Patrick home before… Paul George also returned home last year against me in the Playoffs. “. Cancun to 3Beverley replied before George’s reply: “And you’re going to be sent home this year, respect”. “Keep changing teams… avoiding hard work. You are fools ”, a terminé Lillard. Trash talk.

– Donovan Mitchell tried everything… in vain! After two crazy overtime, the Denver Nuggets took the best of the Utah Jazz (134-132). In the first period, the Salt Lake City franchise thus managed to make the hole with a good long-distance address (+14). But reinforced with the great return of Jamal Murray (23 points, 12 rebounds and 8 assists), the training of Colorado has gradually recovered, with in particular a Michael Porter Jr (23 points, 11 rebounds) inspired. At 20 seconds from the end of the 4th quarter, Denver thus had a 6 point lead… The moment chosen by Donovan Mitchell (35 points) to get out of his box! With 7 points in a row, he snatched the extension!

On this extra time, Mitchell and Nikola Jokic (30 points, 11 rebounds, 7 assists) went blast for blows. The American thought to offer the victory to his team with a shot to take a two-point lead with 3 seconds remaining, but the Serbian responded for another overtime! With visible fatigue within both teams, Jazz, diminished without Rudy Gobert sent off for 6 faults, cracked with a determining Murray despite a final comeback signed Mitchell. What a game !

– Jamal Murray really good for the Nuggets! Injured since the start of the bubble, the Canadian has therefore made his comeback in this match. And what a return! On the success against the Jazz, he was essential with 23 points, 12 rebounds and 8 assists. In the hot moments, the leader, even totally burnt out, was breathtaking with important shots. His return will (unsurprisingly) be truly valuable for Denver.

– The only undefeated team in the bubble continues their streak! The Phoenix Suns thus dominated the Miami Heat (119-112). In a real fight between the two teams, Devin Booker still carried his team with 35 points. Despite flattering stats, Deandre Ayton (18 points, 12 rebounds) was not great … while Dario Saric (10 points, 8 rebounds) and Jevon Carter (20 points) were invaluable off the bench. In front, Tyler Herro (25 points) and Duncan Robinson (25 points) have increased in the face of absences from Jimmy Butler, Goran Dragic and Kendrick Nunn. But they were too alone, with in particular a Bam adebayo (18 points, 9 rebounds) not aggressive enough and rough in the money-time. 10th in the West, Phoenix has only 1 victory less than Portland, 9th. And 2 behind Memphis, 8th.

Devin Booker, “Be Legendary” a mission in the skin

– The cool image of the night? Seriously injured knee last February, Jeremy Lamb is not present in this bubble at Disney with the Indiana Pacers. But the back was virtually in the stands to watch the game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Thus, he was able, with his child, to support his teammates. And in addition, he therefore witnessed a victory!
