We continue fresher than ever with a new NBA night and only three games on the program … but not just any games. Possibility of kif multiplied by three, so go ahead with the preview and get some rest, that’s a big brother’s advice.
Three games only but within this program a taste of a conference semifinal, and another of an NBA Finals and a last of an * insert a name *. There will be something for everyone, with defense, offense, favorite to MVP trophy and Shaqtin’A Fool teams. Perfect program!
1h30 : Bucks-Raptors : rematch of the meeting of the day before day in which solid Raptors had the best of Bucks too permissive in defense and too predictable in attack, this good old shock from the East will be an opportunity to see if 1) the Bucks are able to get out of their dirty dynamic (four consecutive losses) and 2) the Bucks are able to get out of it against one of their pet peeves. Still no Jrue Holiday in Milwaukee, maybe no Kyle Lowry for Toronto, and the promise of a beautiful duel between Giannis Antetokounmpo and his lookalike Wish from Cameroon, with the factorat X expected from Khris Middleton and Fred VanVleet to tilt the balance.
4h : Lakers-Nets : tut tut, disse ize de main event. Two of the biggest strike forces in the league, perhaps the two most hyped franchises, and a mentally ill duel between LeBron James on one side and the Kyrie Irving / James Harden duo on the other. We haven’t mentioned Anthony Davis and Kevin Durant since they will be absent, but the number of players in shorts will be enough to delight us. The Nets remain on a streak of four, the Lakers had won seven before losing the day before yesterday to the Nuggets, Kyrie Irving came to the room with a stick, cross out the mention that we bump into and before the big shock . The first to 35 pawns wins, especially if there are two on the same team.
4h : Kings-Heat : the match which absolutely no one can imagine the outcome of before its time. Kings again disappointing after a good series to start François the calendar year, a Heat in back-to-back after its defeat yesterday in OT against the Warriors but a Heat which keeps a roster much more solid than that of Sacto, but X factors capable of tipping this match in the fourth dimension. Among them ? Come on, let’s take the bets. Ten 3-point shots scored by Duncan Robinson, a 24/17/5 from Hassan Whiteside against his former partners (although there are not many left), or a career high from the future Hall Of Famer Kendrick Nunn. Do your shopping, and we’ll talk about it tomorrow?
Rendezvous around 1am to tackle together what should still be a great night of basketball, prepare the coffee and we… we take care of the rest. Love.
