Eight matches were scheduled for this night in the NBA. Here is Inside Basket’s summary of the night.
- boston 140 – 88 golden state
The Celtics hosted the Warriors last night at TD Garden. The players of Joe Mazzula, who are on 10 victories in a row and are full of confidence in this final stretch of the regular season, did not go into detail in exploding the Golden State team. The men from the Bay, who have been in good form lately, were deceptive for the first 7 minutes of the match before sinking. 44 – 22 after the first quarter then 82 – 38 at halftime. The Warriors took a slap in the face like they rarely take. The rest of the match is anecdotal, the gap continuing to climb until reaching +56 points… Nothing went as it should for Stephen Curry & co: 17% 3-point skill, 39% shooting, 17 turnovers, 42 points conceded in transition… A performance to quickly forget to get off to a good start before challenging the Bucks. For Boston, on the other hand, everything went perfectly. This thorough beating of the Warriors allows the Celtics to continue to work on the small details with a view to the playoffs and one thing is certain, the Celtics are very, very serious clients for final victory this year. Mazzula was able to save his starters and that’s good news. Alone, Jrue Holiday played more than 25 minutes.
Jayson Tatum finished with 27 points and 5 assists in 25 minutes. 29 points 3 rebounds for Jaylen Brown in 22 minutes while Derrick White scores 14 points and delivers 8 assists in 20 minutes. Coming off the bench, it also contributed well with the 12 points of Sam Hauser or the 19 points of Payton Pritchard. On the Warriors side, Steve Kerr quickly surrendered, the entire starting five did not exceed 20 minutes of play. 4 points at 2/13 for Stephen Curry, 6 points at 2/9 for Jonathan Kuminga. Lester Quinones finished top scorer for the Warriors with 17 points coming off the bench.
- new york 107 – 98 cleveland
Very strange evening for the Knicks. Traveling to Ohio to challenge the Cavaliers, the players of Tom Thibodeau, along with all of Knick Nation across the globe, had organ failure just a minute into the game. The reason ? The exit due to injury Jalen Brunson. The New York All-Star was injured in a trivial action at the very start of the match and could no longer put his foot on the ground. He had to be accompanied by the staff and teammates to go out. The first news, given by Thibodeau after the match, was intended to be reassuring. It remains to be determined precisely the injury from now on in order to know the duration of Brunson’s unavailability. Meanwhile, the Knicks continued their match against Cleveland, their main rival for the podium this season. The game hung on, at least in the first half, before being controlled by New York in the second. The Big Apple players finally won 107 to 98 and left home with the feeling of accomplishment, but at what cost?
Donte DiVincenzo finished top scorer with 28 points and 6 rebounds. 14 points for Precious Achiuwa while Miles McBride et Bojan Bogdanovic have fun coming off the bench with 16 and 20 points. On the Cavs side, it’s a great missed opportunity to put real distance with NY in the standings. Over the season, the Cavs lost the series, beaten twice in 3 games by the Knicks. Evan Mobley finished with 13 points and 13 rebounds. 17 points for Isaac Okoro while Darius Garland scores 19 points and delivers 5 assists.
- san antonio 117 – 105 indiana
Second victory in a row for the San Antonio Spurs! After beating the Thunder 2 days ago, the Texans welcomed the players from Indianapolis to confirm. Facing the full Pacers, the players of Gregg Popovich were serious, dominating the entire first half before being joined or almost at the break by the Pacers: 52 – 48. At the start of the third quarter, the game of cat and mouse took place and it was ultimately the young Spurs who are doing the best. They took control until halfway through the last quarter. Another tense moment where, twice, Indiana comes back a short distance. But the teammates of Victor Wembanyama will not crack. They make one last effort and here they are with a second success in a row this season, the third in 10 games.
Victor, precisely, finished with 31 points, 12 rebounds, 6 assists and 6 blocks, all at 11/17 including a 3/4 three-pointer and in 31 minutes of play. 18 points for Big Branham and 17 points for Devin Vassell. Finally Keldon Johnson in plant 17 coming off the bench. On the Pacers side, we’re stuck a little at the moment (5 defeats in the last 10 games), like Tyrese Haliburton who finished with 8 assists, 6 rebounds but 12 points on 4/16 shots. Miles Turner finished with 16 points and 10 rebounds, Pascal I’m sorry with 21 points and 8 rebounds.
