The Suns knocked out the Nuggets in four dry innings, while Milwaukee tied at 2-2 against the Nets who lost Kyrie Irving to injury.


Phoenix "sweepe" Denver, CP3 on fire

2020-21 is over for Denver. Led 3-0 before Game 4 of their series against Phoenix, the Nuggets lost again (118-125) last night in Colorado. A defeat that puts an end to their season and sends the Suns to the Conference finals for the first time since 2010 (4-0). Sacred MVP a few days ago, Nikola Jokic was guilty of a big foul on Cameron Payne at 3'52 from the end of the third quarter. More impressive than dangerous, but the referees retained the violence of the gesture and awarded a Flagrante 2 synonymous with expulsion to the 26-year-old Serbian international hub, author of 22 points, 11 rebounds and 4 assists in 28 minutes before returning to the locker room . A crack that symbolized all the frustration of a Denver team never very far in this game,but never in front either ...

The Nuggets were already deprived of Jamal Murray, injured. Too much to hope to win against Chris Paul (37 pts, including 25 in 2nd MT), Devin Booker (33 pts, 10 rbs) and company… And this even if Will Barton (25 pts), Michael Porter Jr (20 pts ) or Facundo Campazzo (14 pts) focused on making the suspense last. At 8 minutes from the end of the match, there was also only +4 for Monty Williams' team. But every time the locals returned, the Suns had the answer. Impressive in this match, CP3 for example made a festival in the third quarter, before the exit of Jokic, while Denver was only a small point behind… Second at the end of the regular season (51v- 21d) and back in the play-offs for the first time in 11 years,the Phoenix Suns will face the Jazz or the Clippers (2-1) in the next round, to gain a place in the final.

Bucks equalize, Brooklyn loses Irving

Nothing is going well, place your bets. Winners of the first two matches of the series, the Nets lose for the second time in a row in Milwaukee this Sunday (107-96), in the second round of the play-offs. Author of 28 points in this Game 4, Kevin Durant was far too alone in the ranks of the Brooklyn team… It must be said that James Harden was still forfeited and that Kyrie Irving (11 pts), hit in the right ankle, did not finish the meeting… Bucks side, Giannis Antetokounmpo split 34 points and 12 rebounds. The French Timothé Luwawu-Cabarrot (Brooklyn) and Axel Toupane (Milwaukee) took advantage of the “garbage time” to stretch their legs with their respective teams. Three points and an assist between four minutes for the first and three points in two minutes for the second.The two franchises will meet in two days for Game 5, at Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
