An NBA season is made up of matches, guys who watch them and talk about them, but also guys who watch them and rate them. Probable revenge after a youth spent collecting zeros, and a perfect opportunity in any case to let go of the punchline by the kilo. Once again this season, Team Notes will delight you with its unfailing imagination, while still trying to talk a little bit about basketball. Chick?
A match that smelled good the PLAYOFFS as a curtain raiser for BeIn Sports’ SNL. All the stars responded. KD, D-Book, Luka, Kyrie, the 4 titans delivered a titanic opposition. But in the end, the Cactus won, to the delight of Alex TBNL. Do we make notes now?
For a more serious match summary, it’s here!
# Dallas Mavericks
Dwight Powell (4,5) : he managed an alley-oop in the last minute to equalize, when we hardly saw him before. It’s Jean-Michel Bonmoment. Too bad the L followed.
Reggie Bullock (6) : a few shots from afar, then from the big defense. Isn’t that what we ask of a 3&D player?
Josh Green (3) : a disgusting green game for Josh Green who had almost no shooting opportunity in 24 minutes. You had to be in the front row with popcorn to see this grain of corn jump on itself in the void. Popopo… Green Giant!
Kyrie Irving (7,5) : Bernard de la Villardière was not present at the game, maybe that’s why Uncle Drew left his weird ideas aside to finally focus on basketball. We missed out on a superb episode of Enquête Exclusive but we won a big game from him, we all come out winners.
Luka Doncic (8) : an irregular match for Louka, who had trouble getting started due to injury (and lifestyle). He then resumed his match in hand despite some waste, but finally missed the inevitable after bumping Josh Okogie. When Hulk gets angry, he turns green and smashes everything in his path. Luka Doncic also got angry, but he just turned pink.
Justin Holiday (6) : a very well-crafted entry into the game for Jrue’s brother. That won’t be enough to impersonate him at the next All-Star Game, however.
Tim Hardaway Jr. (7) : a new role out of the bench taken head on by the son. The full-back was incandescent, refusing to miss his prize-winning shots and also refusing to take an acceptable shot. THJ took out the TNT in her right arm and blasted the Mavs offense when she was moribund.
Markieff Morris (4,5) : 2 minutes and 6 seconds on the floor. He can boast of having lasted two seconds longer than Ciryl Gane against Jon Jones.
Frank Ntilikina (4.5) : two points without taking a shot, one assist and two fouls, as well as the loss. A match stamped FFL.
Christian Wood (6) : send wood, show what kind of wood he’s warming up, be funny, put on a show, go on tour all over France.
# Phoenix Suns
Deandre Ayton (4) : very soft under the panels, absent in combat, letting the stars kill each other. Deandre Ayton’s agent must be damn strong to convince the NBA franchises to select him before Trae Young or Luka Doncic. His agent is most likely Osama Ammar.
Kevin Durant (9,5) : Easy Money Sniper. Kevin Durant has never worn his nickname so well. Only 5 failures out of 17 attempts, he waited for the second quarter to finally miss the target. It is also he who closes the shop on a mid-range shot and free throws. At some point, what more do you want to say?
Josh Okogie (5,5) : sumptuous in defence, abominable behind the arc. Josh Okogie destroyed his opponents but also various satellites in Texas. A pure hammer thrower match.
Devin Booker (9) : He always brilliantly took over from his new franchise-player, he allowed the Suns to pick up and go back in front, and he even took revenge on Luka Doncic by knocking the Slovenian off his feet with a silent punchline that will surely sure its place in the next TrashTalk Award.
Chris Paul (4,5) : although he had a few shards late in the game, Chris Paul’s game was overall very poor. Positive point for the demonstrators? It looks like a solid additional argument for not wanting to retire at 64.
Terrence Ross (4) : like his Friends namesake, Ross has been extremely shy. Yet Jennifer Aniston is not in the workforce of the Suns.
Cameron Payne (5,5) : Going from sparring partner of Russell Westbrook in Dancing with the Stars to luxury point guard in a Western contender is perhaps one of the greatest stories the NBA will tell with tears in 15 years. Believe in your dreams
Jock Landale (4,5) : a lackluster match, he had probably already eaten, but we had Landale.
Torrey Craig (5) : a nice entry, defense, 3-point shooting and a very interesting rotation behind mason Josh Okogie
Damion Lee (4,5) : because trying to get into the game while jogging couldn’t go unpunished.
TJ Warren (4.5): it’s still funnier when he sends his middle finger to Jimmy Butler, don’t you think?
Ish Wainright (6) : a sort of Malcolm Brogdon look-alike on steroids, Ish Wainright more than made his contribution by sending a few shots from distance and taking out the anvils in defense. The team is toka, Ish Ish.
Phoenix replaces itself extremely well in the West while Dallas tumbles to 7th place and sees the breath of its competitors coming to graze their necks. It was great basketball, and we want more in April.
