Andrew Bogut Made $400K in 58 Seconds Before Breaking His Leg
On Friday, they took it step further and set an National Basketball Association record in the process.
Williams was on deck in Miami but his 10 points, seven assists and five rebounds could not hold back the Heat, who have won 18 of their past 22 matches as they battle the Detroit Pistons for the eight and final playoff berth in the east. That bested the regular-season record of 24 set on December 16, 2016 by the Houston Rockets against Orlando. “I plan to reach out to Brian as soon as possible and intend to apologize for the contact that I made during last night’s game”.
“It should have been more”, Cleveland coach Tyronn Lue said. “It’s a good challenge for us”. No, LeBron James and Kyrie Irving did not play. Irving has scored at least 20 in 12 consecutive games.
With one eye on a third meeting with the Warriors in June, Griffin has expertly re-inforced his roster, adding Bogut, Deron Williams, Derrick Williams and Kyle Korver since January 1.
“We came in wanting to take away the 3-point line”, Atlanta coach Mike Budenholzer said.
James said he expects teammates caught in the playing time crunch to sometimes be frustrated. “Who we played Saturday is not who we’re playing tonight”.
Bogut’s arrival was also seen as giving the Cavaliers’ roster a key inside player with championship experience. Miami did not let up to start the fourth quarter, and built the lead to 20 at one point. Korver then quelled the comeback by leaning in for his third 3-pointer of the night. We all were excited about the acquisition, you know, bring him in here.
There’s a lot to dissect there from James, ranging from the tough road the Cavs have in front of them, to the freaky set of circumstances they’ve found themselves in over the past week, to an overarching issue that’s plagued them all season.
“They’re going to be ready”.
HORNETS 100, PACERS 88: Kemba Walker scored 28 points, Nicolas Batum added 21 and Charlotte won at home. “That’s the biggest thing”, he said. “We just have to get the terminology right for them.”. “He’s a good guy”.
The Cavs need a backup for Tristan Thompson and big body to contend with some of the centers they could face in May and June. Irving had nine assists.
Bad Shooting: The Cavs made just 9-of-27 from three-point range for 33 percent. However, a missed three by LeBron James and a trey by former Cav Dion Waiters closed out the game.
NY scored 10 straight points to start the fourth quarter and eventually pushed that to a 23-4 run that turned a seven-point deficit into a 108-96 lead with 4:38 left in the game.
“That first 2 1/2 quarters was great basketball”, Lue said. “And we played together on offense”. “He got off to a phenomenal start and had a big first half”.
– A bunch of Heat players were asked before Monday’s game about the Knicks’ test with no music or other artificial sound during the first half of their Sunday loss to the Warriors at Madison Square Garden.
