Good Morning everyone! Happy Monday, what a weekend what a weekend! The NBA Playoffs are in full swing and it is an amazing thing isn’t it?! Without further ado lets get right into the thick of it!
There was no shortage of games this weekend and boyyyyy was it entertaining! First on the slate is going to be the Knicks and the Cavaliers game. Donovan goes for 38 but it came in a loss to the Knicks in Cleveland! Led behind Jalen’s 27 points the Knicks upset the Cavs at home, can they keep this up to take a 2-0 series lead?!
Second has to be the Warriors vs the Kings on Saturday night! LIGHT THE BEAMMMMMMMMMMM!! Sacramento gets their first playoff win in almost 20 years! De’Aaron Fox and Malik Monk go for over 30 points a piece in leading the comeback win against Golden State. The Kings took over in the 3rd and held on tight to that lead throughout the 4th. Is something special brewing Sacramento?!
Kyle’s boys pulled off the dub! The Los Angeles Lakers go into Memphis and beat the Grizzlies in game one. It was truly a team effort where multiple Lakers had 20 point performances. The big story going into game 2 will be the status of Ja Morant who exited game 1 with a hand/wrist injury. Can the Lakers maintain this level of play throughout the series or will this young Memphis team find a way to bounce back with or without Ja.
PLAYOFF JIMMY IS HIM! Jimmy Butler leads the Miami Heat to a game 1 victory against the Milwaukee Bucks with 35 points and 11 assists. Once again the story in this game is unfortunately injuries…Both Giannis and Tyler Herro exit this game due to injury. Tyler breaks his shooting hand and Giannis leaves with a lower back injury. Can the Bucks survive without their two time MVP? Will Miami shoot the lights out without their former 6th man of the year?!
Lastly Kawhi damn near drops 40 and goes for 38 points in an upset win against the Phoenix Suns. KD goes for 27 and Book goes for 26 but it was not enough to beat the depth of LA. Should the Suns have reason to panic with their lack of scoring outside of Durant and Booker?
