On January 10, Beijing time, the NBA game continued, like the Warriors, Lone Rangers, Nuggets, Nets and other top teams have won the game, overall, there is no upset game today. The Lone Ranger beat the Bulls 113-99, and Doncic scored another triple-double to beat the favourite team in the Eastern Conference. The Nuggets narrowly beat the Thunder 99-95, and Jokic slashed 22 points and 18 rebounds, which was too good. Towns scored 40 points to lead the Timberwolves to defeat the Rockets. The Warriors stopped losing 2 straight, Curry scored 28 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists, and Tang Shen's performance was also very good.
Let's take a look at the maverick and bull game first. In the first quarter, the Bulls performed very well, leading the Lone Rangers by 10 points at 32-22, but in the last three quarters, the Lone Rangers, led by Doncic, began to chase points wildly, and the second quarter exploded 32-23, and in the last quarter, the Lone Rangers played a 30-20 score again. In the end, the Lone Rangers beat the Bulls by 14 points and won a high-stakes victory. The Bulls are the first-class team in the East and a big favorite for the title this season, and I believe that after the Lone Ranger wins this victory, the team will be morale boosted.
The Lone Ranger's Doncic cut a big triple-double stat with 22 points, 14 rebounds and 14 assists, and although he has basically lost the MVP, Doncic is definitely one of the candidates for the All-Star starter. Brunson had 17 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists, Smith had 12 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists, and substitute Green had 18 points and 6 rebounds. The Bulls' DeRozan cut 20 points, 4 rebounds and 8 assists, Vucevic had 13 points and 6 rebounds, Kobe White had 13 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists, LaVine had 20 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists, and Ball had 9 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists. The Bulls Big Four played relatively modestly and eventually lost.
In the game between the Warriors and cavaliers, Thompson's comeback has attracted much attention, and the Warriors' home team has also made a lot of money. The Warriors' performance in the first half was more average, curry was in good shape, only 8 minutes, 4 of 4 three-pointers cut 14 points. Thompson performed average in the first quarter, but in the second quarter, Tang Shen began to perform, and his three-pointer was still sharp. In the second half of the game, the Warriors blasted a 28-14 score in the third quarter, completely pulling the score away and basically locking in the victory. In the final quarter, the Cavaliers won by 5 points, and the Warriors only scored 17 points in a single quarter, but still beat the Cavaliers 96-82.
The Warriors' Curry shot 10-of-21 from the field, 4-of-11 from three-point range, and scored 28 points, five rebounds and five assists. Thompson made his season debut, only played 20 minutes, scored 17 points on 7-of-18 shooting, including 3 of 8 three-pointers, from the game point of view, Thompson is still the best shooter, athleticism has not declined significantly, Wiggins only scored 10 points in 3 of 9, willing to be a green leaf. What is more touching is that in order to witness the comeback of Tang Shen, after chasing the dream Green appeared on the jump ball, he took the initiative to foul the field, he did not play in this game because of physical reasons, but still played.
The Timberwolves and Rockets' showdown, the game had lost suspense after the first half. The Timberwolves won more than 20 points in just half a game, and in the second half, they continued to suppress the Rockets. In the end, the Timberwolves won a big victory. I have to sigh that the Timberwolves have been the belly of the West for many years, and the Rockets were one of the best teams in the West under the leadership of Harden a few years ago. Today, the situation on both teams has changed dramatically, with the Timberwolves rising, the Big Three of Towns + Edwards + Russell looking forward to, and the rockets rising far away.
The Timberwolves' Towns exploded, slashing 40 points, 9 rebounds, 7 assists and 1 steal, with a staggering plus-minus of +27. Edwards 19 points, Russell 22 points and 10 assists, this game, the Timberwolves 4 people at least cut 19+, the whole team 6 people scored in double figures, the offensive end of the performance is perfect. After the Rockets lost to the Timberwolves, they suffered two consecutive losses, ranking first in the West with an 11-30 record. The prospects for the Rockets are worrying, and the team built by Jaylen Green + Porter Jr. may be the wrong choice for now.
The Lakers played against the Grizzlies at home, and the Lakers performed very well during this time under the leadership of James. But this time it was hit by the Grizzlies, who are the Lakers' nemesis. In the second quarter of the game, the Grizzlies played a 38-25 score in a single quarter, breaking the Lakers, and in the third quarter, the Lakers scored 31 points in a single quarter, the Grizzlies scored 42 points in a single quarter, and the Lakers lost another 11 points. The score difference is already over 20 points, and the last quarter is basically garbage time. The Lakers are falling behind more and more, and James and other core players have no need to play anymore.
The Grizzlies broke out as a team, with Morant having 16 points, five rebounds and seven assists, and he chose to let his teammates play this time. Bain had 23 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists, hitting five three-pointers. Anderson had 14 points, 7 rebounds and 8 assists, Jalen Jackson Jr. had 21 points and 12 rebounds, and the Grizzlies core players all played less than 30 minutes. James of the Lakers cut 35 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists, shot 14 of 19 from the field and 3 of 4 from three-point range, although he was behind by a large margin, but old Zhan did not give up, and his personal performance was perfect.
Speaking of today's best players, Towns 40+9+7, Curry 28+5+5, Doncic 22+14+14! They all have a chance to compete for today's best player, but James's performance is too shocking, half-time cut 23 + 5 + 3, the old Zhan has cut 30+ in the third quarter, elected today's best, should also be OK. In the end, James handed over the luxury data of 35+9+7, the 37-year-old Zhan is still creating miracles, and in the last 11 games, James has cut 30+ in 10 games, setting a historical record, which is really too powerful.
