This is the special gift 2020-21, every morning you can enjoy the recap of the past night, for those who could not get up, for those who would be lazy to read the recaps, or simply for those who like to get to the point. That night in the NBA? Suns who take their time, solid Sekou Doumbouya, the Bucks who assert themselves, the Kings who line up the wins and we wonder why, and Lonzo Ball who wins his sniper duel against Stephen Curry. Huh?
– What to remember
- For a long time the Cavs held the highs to the Suns, thanks to an excellent Isaac Okoro in particular, but in overtime life resumed its course and after a fitting 20-2, Phoenix recovered its first place in the League.
- Julius Randle and Stephen Curry were voted Player of the Month.
- Hamidou Diallo game in Detroit, a good Sekou Doumbouya too (20 points), but thanks to an inspired Killian Hayes at the end of the game the Pistons finally reached their goal of defeat against the Hornets of a LaMelo Ball in great shape to attack the play-in. And this sentence is absolutely amazing if you understand it.
- Mike Malone and… Scott Brooks were voted Coach of the Month.
- The Kings are now four wins out of the last five games, a wonderful illustration, as usual, of what not to do.
- We have also learned that Tyrese Haliburton has officially ended his season, the perfect opportunity not to watch the Kings once this season.
- Anthony Edwards and… Malachi Flynn were voted Rookies of the Month.
- Stephen Curry had started on the hats of wheels but ended his match in the hat wheel, that does not mean anything but in any case the Pels beat the Warriors thanks to a huge Lonzo Ball and can now seriously aspire to steal the tenth place of the Spurs.
- Big game, once again, between the Bucks and the Nets and Milwaukee has, once again, snatched the win after a last quarter better controlled.
- The Heat were deprived of Jimmy Butler, or 80% of their chances of winning, so the Heat lost to the Maverickc by one… Tim Hardaway Jr. in human torch mode (36 points, 10 threes).
- The Clippers served the minimum field against the Raptors, and as often this year with the Raptors… that was enough.
