Three games took place tonight (Thursday-Friday) in the best league in the world, with Phoenix continuing to deliver a statement of intent against Luca and Dallas, the Knicks continuing to disappoint fans with a loss to New Orleans and Golden State giving up at the end of 53 minutes against Indiana.
Golden State - Indiana 121: 117 (after overtime)
Indiana managed to stun Steph Kerry's gang outside, who were forced to give up only after a 53-minute thriller.
The Pacers, who continued the momentum after the win over the Lakers, this time came in a missing lineup without Savonis, Wort and Brogdon but that really didn’t stop them from winning away after Justin Holiday set up an overtime with a big three, 8 seconds to end legal time.
In added time, Chris Duarte (27 points) managed to rise with points in money-time, which completely silenced the host's fans.
Justin Holiday added another 16 points to Indiana.
On the other hand, 39 points (6 of 16 from outside the arc) and 8 assists, by Steph Kerry and 12 points by Clay Thompson were really not enough for the Warriors this time.

Luka Doncic, who scored 41 points against the Raptors a little over a day ago, admittedly provided his dose with 28 points, 8 rebounds and also 8 assists, but it was not enough against the runner-up, who presented a fourth quarter to glory in which he ran to 19:35 .
Devin Booker led the Suns scoring with 28 points, 6 assists and 5 rebounds while this time Chris Paul assisted with 20 points and 11 assists en route to the Suns' ninth straight win over the hosts.

New York Knicks - New Orleans 102: 91
The Knicks once again disappointed the fans at the Garden, who were noble to predict a third straight loss of their idols.
The Pelicans, who interrupted a streak of two losses, did the job with the help of a third quarter of 35 points against only 15 of the host.
Brandon Ingram and Devonta Graham scored 15 for the winners, but above them Lithuania Jonas and Lancionas shone with a double-double of 18 points and 10 rebounds.
For the loser, RJ Barrett and Mitchell Robinson finished with 17 points each.
