NBA – The New York Knicks launched on their best winning streak in 7 years!


The game: Knicks’ sixth straight win

Julius Randle and his teammates are launched on an unprecedented dynamic. The Knicks clinched a sixth straight win by overtaking the Pelicans in overtime last night (122-112). The Manhattan franchise hadn’t won so many games in a row for… seven years! She can thank her engine, Randle, once again sparkling and very complete with 33 points, 5 rebounds, 10 assists and 5 steals to meet the 34 points, 9 rebounds and 5 assists of Zion Williamson. A duel of the strong.

A high-flying Tatum-Curry duel, the Bucks surprised by the Grizzlies

Derrick Rose also strongly contributed to this new success by adding 23 points but also some key actions in the money-time. It was he who offered the basket three points from the equalizer, scored by Reggie Bullock, in the very last seconds. He was also the one who blocked the Pelicans’ final attempt. But New Orleans players can also blame themselves. They held the game in hand with a three-point lead at the end of the fourth quarter. They did not listen to the instructions of their coach, Stan Van Gundy, who wanted his men to make a mistake to send the Knicks to the line. They finally paid him cash.

The player: Bam Adebayo bends the Nets

Bam Adebayo had to take a time out so that his coach could set up a final system five seconds from the end. But the backbone of the Heat preferred to go instinctively. He provoked his vis-à-vis before releasing a small shot four meters from the circle. It took him well. Because the pivot simply scored the basket for the win at the buzzer and Miami won against Brooklyn (109-107). The conclusion of a full game for the interior All-Star, author of 21 points, 15 rebounds and 5 assists. In its wake, the Floridians have gained the upper hand over decimated New Yorkers. James Harden was still missing (ischios) and Kevin Durant was injured after four minutes. It would only be a contusion for the two-time NBA champion. The Nets still led by six points before conceding an 8-0 to conclude the game …

The performance: Another massive double-double from Clint Capela

By beating the Pacers (129-117) last night, the Hawks have validated an eighth victory in the last ten matches. A series that allowed them to climb to fourth place in the Eastern Conference. A former resident of the French championship finds himself at the heart of Atlanta’s good results: Clint Capela. The Swiss pivot is a double-double machine. With 25 points and 24 rebounds, he was once again one of the main assets of his training last night. Trae Young added 34 points. The Hawks have had a series of good performances since Nate McMillan took his place on the bench (17 wins in 23 matches).

End of the series: The Kings finally win despite 37 points from Doncic

Finally a reaction for the Kings. Dominated in their last nine outings, the Californians have returned to victory by winning against the Mavericks (121-107) despite Luka Doncic’s 37 points. De’Aaron Fox is Sacramento’s main contributor with 30 points and 12 rebounds to meet the Slovenian’s 22 points in the fourth quarter. Californians held on to finally get out of this bad patch.

The series: Ten losses in a row for the Thunder

Oklahoma City executives already have their sights set on next season. Maybe even the next one. The franchise now leaves room for young people, launched into the deep end. And, of course, their learning takes place in pain. The Thunder conceded a tenth defeat in a row by losing against the Raptors (106-112) of Chris Boucher (31 pts, 12 rebounds) last night. OKC is thirteenth in the West.

The French: Theo Maledon well in his role

The young Habs Théo Maledon scored 9 points in the Thunder’s loss to the Raptors. His compatriot Jaylen Hoard was not used. Timothé Luwawu-Cabarrot scored 7 points for the Nets.
