Recap NBA 10/12/2018: LeBron vince la sfida a Wade, rullo Warriors, bene i Clippers e Gallinari

Tante gare nella notte NBA, partiamo da Indiana, dove i Pacers mettono KO gli Washington Wizards: bella partita di tutto il quintetto dei Pacers, diverse le figure in doppia cifra (Young 14+12rim, Turner 26+12rim, Collison 10+17ast), i padroni di casa sono bravi a scavare il solco decisivo a cavallo di secondo e terzo quarto, gli ospiti provano ad aggrapparsi ai 30 di Beal ma non c’è niente da fare, vittoria Pacers 109-101. Paul George (31p) e Russell Westbrook (tripla-doppia da 12p+11rim+10ast) trascinano gli Oklahoma City Thunder alla vittoria contro gli ostici Utah Jazz: i Thunder scappano via nel terzo quarto (42-29), ma gli ospiti non mollano e grazie ad un bel quarto quarto da 38-23 provano la rimonta, resa vana dai punti dei leader di OKC. I padroni di casa vincono 122-113. Vittoria al cardiopalma per i Clippers di Danilo Gallinari sui Phoenix Suns, ai ragazzi di coach Rivers serve un overtime per sbarazzarsi di Ayton e compagni: 123-119 il punteggio finale, i Clippers sono bravi a non sbagliare dalla linea della carità nei minuti decisivi e mettono la gara in cassaforte, bella prova del “Gallo” con 25 punti, dominante ancora una volta Tobias Harris con 33 punti. “One last dance”, i Miami Heat escono sconfitti dallo Staples Center nell’ultima partita di Dwayne Wade contro i Lakers, i 15 del n°3 e i 28 di Winslow dalla panca non bastano agli ospiti, che devono arrendersi ai colpi di un super Kuzma da 33 punti e a quelli di LeBron James (28p+12ast), 17esima vittoria per i Lakers, punteggio finale 108-105.
