Golden State (33:35) - Milwaukee (19:48) 116:125 (after overtime)
The anomaly that is called Golden State continues: in away games it is on a streak of 8 losses and shows a bad balance, but in home games it looks almost invincible, and already Standing on a streak of 7 wins.
Tonight the Warriors worked very hard to get the win, which ended a three game losing streak.
The Bucks came to the battle between the last two champions without the injured Giannis Antetokounmpo, who was absent for the third consecutive game, but still managed to stretch Golden State to the edge.
Luckily for the Warriors, they have Steph Curry: The tireless sharpshooter scored the team's final 11 points in regulation, including a big 3-pointer with 19 seconds left that forced overtime, and added 9 more in overtime, which Golden State escaped.
In total, Curry had 36 points (22 in the last quarter and overtime), and was also helped by 22 points from Klay Thompson and 20 from Donte DiVincenzo.
Khris Middleton led the Bucks with 19 and 5 assists, Brook Lopez scored the same number of points and added 7 rebounds and Bobby Portis contributed 15 and 13, but in the end the team with the best balance in the league lost for only the second time in its last 21 games.
Atlanta (34:34) - Boston (21:47) 134:125
The Celtics' road trip started on the right foot, with a difficult victory in Georgia, in a game in which they led almost the entire way and were not scared when the Hawks made a comeback in the last quarter.
Jayson Tatum led as usual with 34 points, 11 of them in the last quarter, along with 15 rebounds, Jaylen Brown added 24, which was also enough against an excellent game by Trae Young, who scored 35 and handed out 13 assists.
L.A. Clippers (33:36) - New York (30:39) 95:106
The Clippers are again in positive momentum, and once again enjoy Kawhi Leonard in his best version.
The injured forward's 38 points, along with Paul George's 22, secured a third win in a row and put the Knicks' losing streak at the same number.
The Knicks, missing Jaylen Brunson again, saw the Clippers run away in the last quarter.
Emmanuel Quickley led them with 26 and 10 rebounds, Julius Randle added 19 but with terrible percentages (5 of 24 from the field).
