Milwaukee vypadlo třikrát za sebou v prvním kole, z toho podruhé za sebou s Indianou. V úterý vedlo 40 sekund před koncem prodloužení 118:111, jenže pak trefil Andrew Nembhard trojku a Tyrese Haliburton dal koš s faulem a proměnil trestný hod. Pak se prosadil i v nájezdu přes Janise Adetokunba 1,1 sekundy před koncem, čímž rozhodl.
Milwaukee už nemělo oddechový čas a zoufalý pokus Garyho Trenta Jr. neměl naději na úspěch. „Tahle výhra se do historie klubu zapíše jako jedna z nejlepších. Tyrese si zaslouží gratulace, koncovku z velké části režíroval,“ řekl trenér Rick Carlisl. Haliburton přispěl k vítězství 26 body a devíti asistencemi.
Myles Turner zaznamenal 21 bodů, Aaron Nesmith přidal 19 bodů a 12 doskoku. Na druhé straně nastřílel Trent 33 bodů. Adetokunbo, který zaznamenal 30 bodů, 20 doskoků a 13 asistencí, se po utkání dostal do roztržky s Haliburtonovým otcem a některými hráči Pacers. Indiana se ve čtvrtfinále utká s Clevelandem.
Boston rozhodl proti Orlandu v druhém poločase, který ovládl 73:40. Jayson Tatum se blýskl 35 body, 10 asistencemi a osmi doskoky. Sekundoval mu s 23 body Jaylen Brown. Za Orlando, které před první kolo play off nepřešlo od roku 2010, nasbíral 25 bodů Franz Wagner.
Po velké chybě sudích ve čtvrtém utkání zmobilizoval Detroit síly v pátém zápase a uspěl v Madison Square Garden. Vedli ho Cade Cunningham s 24 body a Ausar Thompson, který dal 22 bodů. Pistons vyhráli, i když trefili jen osm z 29 trojek a úspěšnost střelby měli pouze 42 procent.
„Všichni máme v hlavě, že jsme u zdi, ale zároveň si užíváme, že jsme v play off spolu. Určitě nechceme, aby to už skončilo. Bojujeme dál,“ řekl křídelní hráč Detroitu Tobias Harris. Knicks měli šest dvouciferných střelců, O. G. Anunoby nasbíral 19 bodů.
Jednoznačné vítězství si v pátém utkání připsal Denver, který proti Clippers vedl až o 22 bodů. Exceloval Murray, jenž trefil osm ze 14 trojek a celkem 17 z 26 střel. Nikola Jokič nasbíral další triple double za 13 bodů, 12 asistencí a 10 doskoků. Aaron Gordon nastřílel 23 bodů. Clippers nepomohlo 27 bodů Ivici Zubace nebo 20 bodů Kawhiho Leonarda. Denver proměnil 17 z 33 trojek a střílel s úspěšností 56 procent.

Titans’ Jeffery Simmons and Bengals’ Trey Hendrickson will be legit Cowboys trade deadline candidates
The two first-round draft picks netted in the Micah Parsons deal might not be burning a hole in the pocket of Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, but he certainly hasn’t been shy about letting other NFL teams know that draft capital could be in play by the time the league’s trade deadline rolls around on Nov. 4.Jones reiterated this week, as he has multiple times since the Parsons trade, that Dallas has the “ammo” to be a buyer in the market if the right deal presents itself. Speaking at a news conference about his Frisco practice stadium hosting the January East-West Shrine Bowl, Jones essentially sent the message that the phone line is open if someone wants to call. And multiple sources across the league told Yahoo Sports this week they believe Jones will be listening for a plus-sized talent — […]
