Bucks vs Celtics
Jayson Tatum explodes for 46 points to lift the Boston Celtics to a game 7 versus the Milwaukee Bucks. Tatum hasn’t been all that great this series and he’s shown last night why he should be a superstar in this league, with the series heading back to Boston on Sunday night for a game 7 I would imagine the Celtics are the betting favorite to win that game. Giannis also had a monster game finishing with 44 points, 20 rebounds, 6 assists with a steal and 2 blocks but didn’t secure the win to close the series, Giannis is showing why he’s the best player in the league right now and his team isn’t doing enough to help him.
The Celtics had multiple players score in double digits like Jayson Tatum with 46, Jaylen Brown with 22 and Marcus Smart with 21 and that was enough to edge out the Bucks last night at home.
Warriors vs Grizzlies
The Golden State Warriors close out the Memphis Grizzlies with a 100-96 win to advance to the western conference finals. The splash brothers came up clutch combining for 59 points and 14 threes, with Klay Thompson having a vintage game last night this game got out of hand quickly in the second half, Klay finally showed up last night after struggling the last couple games and just like usual he did it from behind the arc. Stephen Curry also had a good game finishing with 29 points with 7 boards and 5 assists, Memphis guard Dillion Brooks shoved Steph to the ground last night and received a flagrant 1 foul and it was clearly out of frustration.
Now for Memphis, they played a great game and considering what they’ve done without Ja Morant these last two games you have to give the players a lot of credit, Memphis is a very young team and they are going to be a problem for the next couple years. Few thought Memhpis would play this well and get this far for such a young team but they’ve overachieved this postseason and I’m sure Grizzlies fans are very excited for what’s to come for this team.
