The NBA postseason officially began this Saturday with the victories of the Philadelphia 76ers once morest the Brooklin Nets, the Boston Celtics once morest the Atlanta Hawks, the New York Knicks once morest the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Sacramento Kings once morest the Golden State Warriors.
For its part, Sunday would bring the first games of the series between Memphis Grizzlies and Los Angeles Lakers, Milwaukee Bucks and Miami Heat, Phoenix Suns and Los Angeles Clippers and Denver Nuggets and Minnesota Timberwolves.
Both Los Angeles ninths would give the first blow once morest their respective rivals. The Lakers, led by an imposing LeBron James, outscored the Tennessee team 128 to 112. “The King” would score 21 points and have 11 rebounds and 5 assists. However, the top scorer of the match would be Rui Hachimura, with 29 units.

The Clippers, for their part, would have a close duel in Arizona. Despite Kevin Durant’s great performance for the local team scoring 27 points, 11 assists and 9 rebounds, a great Kawhi Leonard would be one of the architects of the Californian victory by scoring 38 points.

The Fiserv Forum was prepared for the great Hellenic star Giannis Antetokounmpo to shine once morest Miami, but his performance would be weak as he only played eleven minutes in which he only produced six points and three rebounds. This was taken advantage of by a Floridian quintet that dreams of going back to those old days where they were favorites for the title every year.
