The NBA court was turbulent last night, and the major news came out one after another. The Clippers reversed the Mavericks, the 76ers were on the verge of elimination, the best coach was announced, Lillard missed a key game due to injury, and Nuggets star Murray's injury made the whole series full of uncertainties.
First, the Clippers decisively adjusted their tactics when they were 1-2 down and let the small card rest the game. George opened the game with 16 points in the first quarter to lead the Clippers to a 31-point lead. However, the Mavericks did not give up and launched a frantic counterattack under the leadership of Irving. In the final quarter, they once overtook the score. At the critical moment, Harden stepped up, and he made consecutive single break-through throws, contributing 33 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists to help the Clippers stabilize the situation and finally draw 2-2 with the Mavericks.
Meanwhile, the 76ers have bad news. In the series against the Knicks, they lost 92-97, fell behind 1-3 and were on the verge of elimination. Embiid and Maxey performed well, but the Knicks' Brunson scored a staggering 47 points and became the MVP of the game. The next game will be back on the home court of the Knicks, and the 76ers' road to qualification is getting tougher and tougher.
In the coach's seat, there was also good news. The NBA officially announced the best coach of the season, and Thunder head coach Dagneault was elected without any suspense. He led the young recruits Thunder to emerge from the lottery zone and become No. 1 in the West, showing extraordinary coaching ability.
However, not all teams are so lucky. The Bucks officially announced that Lillard will miss the G4 game against the Pacers due to injury. This made the Bucks even worse when they were down 1-2. Lillard suffered a sprained ankle in his last game and will have to watch from the sidelines.
Finally, there was worrying news from the Nuggets. Star Murray suffered a calf strain, and G5 is doubtful. This is undoubtedly a big blow for the Nuggets, as Murray is an important point of scoring and ball initiation for them. In Murray's absence, the Nuggets will face a huge challenge, and the Lakers will be expected to take advantage of the opportunity to pull off miracles.
In short, every game on the NBA court is full of variables and surprises. Let's wait and see how each team shows their quality and intelligence in the upcoming games.
