Antetokounmpo and Milwaukee were eliminated from the Bulls’ 3-pointers in the finals

Bucks and Bulls put up a great fight at the Fiserv Forum, with the Chicago team scoring huge three-pointers in the finals, leaving Milwaukee victorious (113-118) after an amazing game. 36 Antetokounmpo, 36 and DeRozan.

It’s a local derby. The distance between Milwaukee and Chicago is about the same as… Athens – Livadia, that is, this neighborhood rivalry that has been going on for many decades, continued on Thursday night (November 24th) with another big duel. The Bucks and Bulls battled like a playoff game at the Fiserv Forum, with the Bulls scoring three huge 3-pointers in the Finals to earn a huge win (113-118) in a great regular-season game.

The Elafias fell to 12-5 (9-2 at home and 3-3 a) with Giannis Antetokounmpo being “lukewarm” in the first half, dominant and unstoppable in the second but committing a critical offensive foul in the final with the result at 109-109. The Greek freak finished the match with 36 points (15/25 2 points, 6/9 shots, he had 28 points in the second half), 11 rebounds, 7 assists but also 8 errors in 34 minutes while Brook Lopez (20 points, 8 rebounds) waned after his shocking start, Jrue Holiday filled his stats (14 points, 5 rebounds, 11 assists) but he wasted his energy on defense and Allen-Portis was far from his best.

The Bulls (5-5 home and 3-5 away) improved to 8-10, with DeMar DeRozan dismantling every defensive plan of Mike Budenholzer and playing basketball to a shockingly high level against an opponent he enjoys facing. The Bulls’ leader finished the game with 36 points (12/21 twos, 2/3 trebles, 6/7 shots), had four rebounds and eight assists, and LaVine – Vucevic with 18 points. Of course, the key player in the crisis was Kobe White, who first hit two 3-pointers from the corners to level the game at 109-109 and then gave his team the lead.

The Bucks’ next opponents are the Cleveland Cavaliers in the early hours of Saturday (11/26) at the Fiserv Forum.

Antetokounmpo’s account

He wasn’t himself in the first part. His phases didn’t work out at the basket, the free shots missed all around him and at halftime he had a lukewarm 8/5/3 with 4/10 two-pointers. In the third period another player appeared, he scored in attack but was stopped by the fourth foul, in the fourth period he burned, he was unstoppable and would have avoided the offensive foul at 109:109 and would have touched the perfect. He again committed eight turnovers and had a career-worst 3.8 for the season. And that’s a part he should put more emphasis on.

50-34 bat points, 12-19 surprise points, 28-27 spare points, 13-17 opponent foul points, 16-7 second chance points (offensive rebounding). But what was the match number? The Bulls’ 12 blocks with five players of two each (DeRozan, Williams, Dosunmu, Drummond, Green) against the Bucks’ only three.

The race

With 2/2 3-pointers from Brook Lopez in the first two possessions, the Bucks opened the game, only for Billy Donovan to call the first timeout after 70 seconds and the Milwaukee center returned with his third 3-pointer to make it 14- make. 5. DeRozan and Dosunmu kept the Bulls close, but Budenholzer had plenty of options on the bench this time. Wes Matthews hit a 3-pointer to make it 21-17 while LaVine and DeRozan hit in spurts and impressive parsimony to make it 33-32 in a time when Chicago had six turnovers but Milwaukee had four points off them.

With Yiannis the creator, the Bucks held the lead early in the second but couldn’t break away. Their share of the perimeter dropped while Lopez scored a field goal and maintained a…competitive regularity at 45-38 in a crazy two minutes that saw the ball bobbing without substance. Matthews’ buzzer-hitting 3-pointer went 50-38 midway through the second quarter, after which the Bulls responded with a quick 0-8 run to cut the lead to four. At that pace, the match continued through halftime, with 62-61 leaving promise of an even bigger fight.

With Antetokounmpo on fire early in the second half, the Bucks woke up their crowd, but the Bulls consistently had answers, with either LaVine or DeRozan. He caught Giannis’ fourth foul after 30 minutes, he scored to make it 75:75, he continued to hit the home team after Budenholzer had also put Holliday on the bench. The Bulls capitalized on opportunities and built a six-point lead (79-85) through their defense late in the third, with DeRozan hitting 18 in 12 minutes for an 83-90 that gave Chicago a clear victory lead.

The return of Giannis revived the Bucks’ attack, thanks to him Milwaukee reduced to two (92-94), thanks to him they were 95-95 and thanks to him they wrote 97-95 in 41′. The way he attacked the Bulls was shocking as the umpires made a ridiculous decision on a Lopez basket, flipped it over, fired shots and watched the Bucks center go 0/2 at 105-104. Carter and Giannis from middle distance made it 109-106, White equalizing with a 3-point from the corner at 75″ and immediately after Antetokounmpo fouled Caruso.

An unlikely DeRozan assist led to White’s second straight 3-pointer, this time from the other corner, to defeat the Bulls (109-112), with Budenholzer calling for a timeout and Holiday gaining possession with a tragic rebound from a miscommunication at 41 .4 inches threw with Giannis Vucevic hitting from the top to make it 109-115 and that was the game that literally slipped through the Bucks’ hands but likely ended up in the hands of those who more deserved the result.

NBA: Jokic’s triple-double, loss to Houston, San Antonio win over Oklahoma

On the evening of December 25 and the night of December 26, five Christmas games were traditionally held as part of the NBA regular season.

The most important match of the match day was played in Oklahoma, where the Thunder hosted San Antonio.

The home team started the game better and were ahead for most of the first quarter, but they missed a move 0:11 into the quarter, allowing Spurs to take the lead 41:36. Oklahoma was unable to take the lead after that, but San Antonio maintained its lead by keeping the game under control and eventually won 117-102.

The Spurs have won all three games against the Thunder this season, while Oklahoma has lost just two of the other 28 games.

The most productive player of the match was Fox, who brought 29 points to San Antonio, while Vembanyama also scored a double-double with 19 points and 11 rebounds.

The Lakers played Houston at home and suffered a crushing defeat.

The fate of the match was decided in the first quarter, when the Rockets won by 12 points (25:37). Afterwards, they increased their advantage by completely controlling the course of the match and eventually won with a score of 119:96.

For Houston, Thompson scored 26 points and Shengyun had a double-double with 14 points and 12 rebounds.

Denver and Minnesota closed out game day.

The first half of the match ended in a draw. Neither team managed to take a lead of more than 9 points, and Denver entered the big break with a 2-point lead at 57:55. In the third quarter, the Nuggets made an attack of 6:0 at the beginning and 10:2 in the middle, reaching a 16-point lead, and at the end of the quarter they were ahead +15 – 90:78. The Timberwolves did not give up and made a 16:2 move midway through the fourth quarter, reaching a lead of 107:108. This gave fans a tense ending; Edwards hit a three-pointer 2 seconds before the siren, sending the game into overtime at 115:115. And there Jokic played a decisive role and scored 18 points in 5 minutes, allowing the Nuggets to win 142:138.

Jokic scored 56 points in the NBA on Christmas Day, falling just four shy of Bernard King’s record. Nikola also recorded a triple-double with 16 rebounds and 15 assists. Murray had a double-double with 35 points and 10 assists.

Forbes named the most valuable sports team of 2025

Version Forbes announced its annual ranking of the world’s most expensive sports teams.

NFL franchise Dallas Cowboys, estimated to be worth $13 billion, has led the pack for the ninth year in a row.

While NBA Golden State Warriors ranked second with a valuation of $11 billion, another representative of American football, Los Angeles Rams (10.5 billion), was in the top three.

The top 10, as last year, includes only American teams from the NFL and NBA. There are seven NFL clubs in the top 10 overall, which Forbes analysts attribute to the league’s large-scale television contracts.

Among football clubs, Real Madrid remains the most expensive – the Spanish giant ranked only 20th with a value of $6.75 billion.

Also in the top 50 are Manchester United (24th, 6.6 billion), Barcelona (42nd, 5.65 billion) and Liverpool (48th, 5.4 billion). In total, only four football clubs are represented in the top 50 rankings.

Formula 1 representatives also returned to the list – Ferrari (26th place) and Mercedes (34th).

The 20 most valuable sports teams in the world according to Forbes
