What better than a busy NBA night to start the week? This Monday, the program is very heavy with eight meetings which will put in the grips of sacred customers. From the Blazers traveling to Wisconsin, to the Jazz continuing its symphony in Los Angeles, to the Falcons stopping off in Cleveland… Menu please!
THIS WAY FOR THE RECAP OF YESTERDAY NIGHT

# DO NOT MISS
10 wins for 6 losses, the balance sheet of the Hawks and the Cavaliers is identical. Both franchises are having a successful start to the season and are among the strongest in the East behind the Celtics and Bucks. So inevitably, when the 3rd goes to the 4th, we take out the popcorn and wait quietly for the pestacle to begin. It must be said that there will be some great artists on the Cleveland floor: Trae Young in a duel once morest Darius Garland, Donovan Mitchell once morest Dejounte Murray, Clint Capela and John Collins in the fight with Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley… In short, this match is worth its weight in gold and we are likely to enjoy ourselves from 1am. For the birds, only Bogdan Bogdanovic is certain to be absent, while De’Andre Hunter is uncertain (sick). The Ohio Cavalry will have to do without Dean Wade, while doubt persists for Kevin Love (thumb) and Caris LeVert (ankle). On the form of the moment, small advantage for the Cavs who remain on two successes in a row while the Hawks had to fight to snatch victory once morest the Raptors in the last game.
Who says massive program necessarily says two gala posters. So following the shock of the East, heading for the Far West to find an equally enticing match: the Clippers who welcome the Jazz. One of these two franchises has the best record in the Western Conference with 12 wins and 6 losses and inevitably, this team is… the Jazz. The Mormons are no longer fun at all and they will pass a new test once morest the troops of Tyronn Lue. With two consecutive victories once morest the Suns and the Blazers, the musicos would hang the Clippers’ scalp well on their pretty hunting board. But two successes is also what separates the Jazz and the Clipps in the rankings… when we tell you it’s a shock. Rudy Gay and Mike Conley are injured, they will not participate in the party. On the side of Los Angeles, it is Luke Kennard who is in the infirmary. Paul George doesn’t yet know if he wants to go up once morest Lauri Markkanen, so the LA winger is listed in day to day. Do not panic for Clippers fans, Kawhi Leonard will be there and he does not intend to attend the Jazz concert without fucking the box. You have been warned, it’s a refined duel that will be played around 4:30 am in California.
# ALSO WATCH
- Indiana will try to nab its tenth victory of the season once morest Orlando, which would allow the Pacers to consolidate their 5th place in the East… Do not look, there are no valves in this sentence.
- What face will the Knicks show in Oklahoma tonight? The Denver one or the one that brings Tom Thibodeau closer to the exit? Be careful, the Thunder will not hesitate to strike down New York once more.
- Klay Thompson swings 2/15 in the Warriors’ loss to the Pelicans, ruining a morning for a bunch of TTFL players. No, we’re kidding since Klay won’t be playing, but imagine anyway.
- The third from the West (Portland) who will try to hunt deer in Wisconsin (Milwaukee). Be careful, the master of time is not there to direct the watchmakers of Oregon.
- Everything is bad with the Bulls, everything is fine with the Celtics, as much to tell you that the confrontation might quickly be folded. We will also keep an eye on a Zach LaVine more sulky than ever.
- Karl-Anthony Towns can breathe, Jimmy Butler should not play tonight. Inevitably, that takes away a bit of prestige from a meeting which will depend on the desire of the players present, hello Anthony Edwards.
Big traffic jam to be expected from 2 a.m. on NBA roads. The first seven games from the program will then end to give way to a very enticing confrontation between the Clippers and the leader of the Western Conference, the Jazz. We take a deep breath, we prepare the thermos and we meet at 1 am for the first strings.
