Good operation of the day – Bucks: in scred the Hornets and the Pelicans offered themselves a little breather this night in the race for the play-in, the Jazz and the Sixers also ensured in the face of logically weaker adversity, but the big beautiful operation, more psychological than mathematical d Moreover, is to the credit of the Bucks, astonishing winners of the Heat. Why amazing? Because after a big start from Milwaukee the Heat led a very big part of the second half, around 23 minutes, carried by a bleeding Tyler Herro and a perfect Gabe Vincent in the five. Giannis Antetokounmpo was well kept, as the Heat get there at least one season out of two, Khris Middleton took the opportunity on the other hand to do dirty, but at the end of the match and after a more discreet second half from Khris and the awakening of the Greek beast… it was finally Jrue Holiday who put Vincent in the sauce, almost at the buzzer, to offer an unexpected victory to the reigning champions against the current leaders of the East. If Jrue Holiday should play in season 6 of Casa de Papel? It will probably be called Miami.
Bad Trade of the Day – Cavs: besides the Kings and the Knicks who are moving further and further away from the play-in zone, besides the Nuggets who missed out against FC Maledon, the dirty op of the night is for the Cavs. Again. Return of Darius Garland, yippee, successful return with 33 pawns, but still a defeat for the Cavs who inexorably see the specter of the play-in approaching with this fifth defeat in six games. Much too dependent on their leader and overwhelmed by the skills of the young Charlotte Hornets, the Bickerstaff players will have to get back to it quickly or risk ruining their superb season in a few weeks, and this will be a big challenge, moreover, since in the next fortnight Cleveland will play the Raptors (main threat coming from behind in the standings), the Heat and the Bulls (the two best teams in the East) and the Sixers twice, as much to tell you that 0-6 is possible and that it would be a big hit for the youth of Ohio. Come on, second wind there, it’s urgent.
