Victory – Warriors claim they pressed the Celtics with Curry and Thompson

With Steph Curry and Klay Thompson averaging 66 points, the Warriors demonstrated their strength to beat the Celtics 123-107 in the two finalists’ first meeting in last year’s NBA Finals.

The Celtics are currently the best team in the NBA. But the Warriors are the NBA champions. That difference—small, but actually…big—was evident in the first meeting of last year’s finalists, when the Warriors defeated the Celtics 123-107 at the Chase Center.

Klay Thompson’s 34 points and Steph Curry’s 32 points led the way for the Warriors, with Jordan Poole – who started with five in Andrew Wiggins’ absence – adding 20 points and Jonathan Cuminga 14 points.

For the Celtics, Jaylen Brown had 31 points but had little help, with Jayson Tatum holding 18 points on shooting on June 21 and Malcolm Brogdon adding 16 points for a Boston who struggled but — for one night — didn’t have enough guns against Golden State, which even reached +20.

THE DODECALPTA: 33-25, 68-63, 95-83, 123-107

WARRIOR: N. Green 11, Looney 7 (15 rebounds), Curry 32 (6/11 threes, 6 rebounds, 7 assists), Thompson 34 (4/11 threes, 5 rebounds), Poole 20 (5/16 shooting, 1/ 9 threes), Cuminga 14 (1 threes, 5 rebounds), T. Green, Lamb, DiVincenzo 3 (1 threes, 8 rebounds), Jerome, Moody 2 (5 rebounds)

CELTS: Griffin 13 (1 three-pointer, 7 rebounds), Williams 4, Tatum 18 (6/21 shooting, 2/9 three-pointers, 7 rebounds), Smart 13 (4/12 shooting, 2 three-pointers, 5 assists). ), Brown 31 (3/9 threes, 9 rebounds), Vonle, Jackson, Houser 3 (1), Corne, Brogdon 16 (2 threes, 5 rebounds), White 6 (1/7 shooting), Pritchard 3 (1)

ADETOKUMBO: “Disrespectful. Don’t ask me this question”

Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo He gave a harsh response to the question about a possible trade to another NBA club:

“I’m here. Don’t ask me that question. It’s disrespectful to me and my teammates. I wear this jersey every day.

To say I don’t want to be here is disrespectful to the organization, the coaching staff, myself and everyone who worked hard to get me on the field. Don’t ask me this question. I am her. I’m going out in this uniform. And as long as I’m here, I’ll give it my all until the last second of the match.”

On the night of December 27-28, Antetokounmpo returned to the field after his calf muscle injury and became the most productive player of the game with the Chicago Bulls – 112:103.

NBA: Utah and Mikhailiuk created a sensation, Antetokounmpo’s brilliant return

Nine games were played in the NBA regular season on the night of December 27-28.

“San Antonio” hosted “Utah” and suffered a sensational defeat.

Spurs had a good first quarter, during which they made a 15:2 spurt to take an 11-point lead at 30:19, but failed to build on it or at least maintain it. In the second quarter, the Jazz responded with a 25:5 attack and took the lead 62:51 with the same 11 points. Utah then kept the opponent at bay for more than 10 points until the middle of the fourth quarter, when Spurs equalized the score – 106:106, thanks to a 14:2 breakthrough. However, the home team could not achieve this success and failed at the end of the match. In the last three minutes of the game, San Antonio scored 2 points and lost them with a score of 2:11 and had a score of 114:127 throughout the match.

Svyatoslav Mikhayyuk He was in Utah’s starting five and stayed on the field for 14 minutes, during which time he scored 3 points (1/1 three-pointers), also made 1 rebound and 1 assist with 1 loss and 1 foul.

The most productive player of the match was Vembanyama, who brought 32 points to Spurs, but this did not help them achieve positive results. Jazz has 29 points from Markkanen and 28 points from George.

“Chicago” lost at home to “Milwaukee”, where Giannis Antetokounmpo returned.

The Bucks gained a minimal advantage in the first quarter and then gradually increased it, eventually winning all quarters of the match and winning with a score of 103:112.

In this game, Antetokounmpo returned to the field after his calf muscle injury and became the most productive player, scoring 29 points for Milwaukee. Portis also scored a double-double for the guest team with 17 points and 11 rebounds.
