Bucks – Pistons 106-115: Shock defeat for Milwaukee and Antitokunbo by the team with the worst record

At 25-14 the Bucks fell (13-6 at home and 12-8 away), who broke their winning streak in six games, at 7-28 the Pistons (4-13 at home and 3-15 away)) fell the Orlando Magic continues to fight for last place in the east. However, they did well in Milwaukee, giving 31 assists (ten more than their opponents), skipping the fouls properly and ending the game with 18/43 threes against 11/43 the hosts.

Next game for the Bucks, in the early hours of Thursday morning at 3:00 am with the now full Toronto Raptors. Again in the Fiserv forum.

The race

The Bucks didn’t get into the game well, they saw Grayson Allen with 0/3 threesomes and a false nail, they also saw Sadik Bay put them in a difficult defense and attack until 13-13 in the sixth minute. Nothing changed in the image of the game as the hosts were very relaxed, very out of place from the periphery, so they needed personal phases from Antetokunbo, who was also at 30:28 from the period in which they had 3/13 three points.

The pistons were really hard. They played with motivation, they played dynamically, they took the lead by five (45-40) while Giannis was the only reliable choice in the Bucks attack (17 points, 7/9 two points, 3/5 three points to the middle the second twelve minutes). In a few phases 46-53 became 57-53 and at half-time (64-61) a number was noticed. It wasn’t even the Bucks’ 15 assists, it wasn’t even their only three mistakes, it wasn’t even the 19/27 two points. It was 6/23 threes with Grayson Allen 0/5 and George Hill 0/4, most of them completely open.

With a 13-0 series at the beginning of the second half, the guests built a small lead again (67:74), with the Bucks now playing with fire. Holiday held it up towards the end of the third period when Sadiq Bay had achieved an impressive performance for him and his team with 28 points (7/10 threesome). Former Bucks player Justin Robinson made it 80:87 with a three and found the two opponents hand in hand at the end of the twelfth minute, as in the period between Cousins and Diallo, when the entire field believed that going there would be a conflict.

And while everyone was waiting for the bucks to explode at the start of the fourth, the pistons shot, going back to +7 (97-90) and causing trouble for the hosts. Holiday was charged with a technical foul, Bay scored his eighth threesome with 94-104 and his own career record, and from that point on the Masters realized they couldn’t return. It wasn’t much of a difference, but her overall look was poor on the night before the challenging games with the Raptors in Milwaukee and the Nets in Brooklyn.

A small breakout reduced the five (106-101) to 47.1 “, but that’s where Cunningham got the offensive rebound after his own misplaced finish and cut the Bucks’ legs off.

THE TWELVE MINUTES: 30-28, 64-61, 85-87, 106-115

MILGUOKI BUKS (Budenholzer): Middleton 10 (1/6 threesome, 3/3 shots, 6 rebounds, 2 assists), Antitokunbo 31 (11/17 twos, 9/13 shots, 10 rebounds, 7 assists), Portis 12 (2/6 three points, 14 rebounds), Allen 5 (1/8 three points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals), Holiday 19 (7/11 two points, 4/8 three points, 3/4 shots, 5 rebounds, 5 Assists, 2 steals), Conaton 3 (1), Hill 3 (0/5 three points), Matthews 4, Cousins 9 (2), Hood

NBA: Tension in Atlanta, overtime in Sacramento and confident victory for New York

Six games of the NBA regular season were played on the night of December 21-22.

Atlanta hosted Chicago and lost in a high-scoring game.

The teams focused on offense from the beginning of the match and this continued throughout the game. As a result, Atlanta made 23 three-pointers and Chicago made 20, and both teams had a shooting percentage close to 50. The teams also frequently missed each other at the basket, so the game resembled a constant exchange of points. The leader changed 20 times in the meeting and the fate of the match was decided at the last minute. Prior to that, the Bulls had built a 6-point advantage, but the Hawks nearly made up for it as the opponents took one of every two shots and Young and Johnson each scored three points for the home team. Still, the outcome was 152:150 in favor of Chicago.

The most productive player of the match was Johnson, who fell one assist short of a triple-double with 36 points and 11 rebounds. The Bulls also had a triple-double contender, but Giddy, who had 19 points and 11 assists, was one rebound short.

Sacramento made a great comeback against Houston and won at home.

Having performed better in the first half, the Rockets eventually gained an advantage of 11 points (68:57) and maintained a comfortable distance from the opponent in the third quarter with 9 points (91:82), and at the beginning of the fourth 12 minutes, this difference increased to +14 – 100:86. But after that the Kings made a 12:0 move and practically equalized: 98:100. Houston then had a few-point advantage, but with 15 seconds left in the fourth quarter, Westbrook made a three-pointer and tied the score at 112:112. The match went to overtime and Schroeder’s three-point shot 4 seconds before the siren was decisive – 125:124.

At the end of this match, Schröder recorded a double-double with 27 points and 10 assists. While Westbrook achieved the same success with 21 points and 13 rebounds, Reynaud also played with 12 points and 14 rebounds.

New York confidently won its home game against Miami.

Heat had a successful performance by winning the first quarter with a score of 37:30, but in the second 12 minutes, the Knicks managed to close the gap and take the lead and entered the long break with +4 – 66:62 on the scoreboard. In the second half, New York constantly kept its opponent within two or three attacks and carried the match to a confident victory with 132:125.

Brunson was the best player of the game, scoring 47 points, which significantly helped the Knicks win.
