Good first for the Knicks who, in front of a very hot Madison Square Garden, manage to get the better of the Celtics after two extra hours. Boston, betrayed by an imprecise Tatum (7/30 from the field), clings to Brown’s 46 points (maximum in career and top in an opener for the green-and-whites) and drags the match to extra time with Smart’s triple at the end of the time regulations. Randle (35 points) and the former Fournier (32) have to roll up their sleeves and in the second overtime the home team finally manages to knock out the Celtics, who had equalized with a triple from Smart on the regulation siren. The Frenchman with a triple brings New York forward at 56 ” from the siren, then the penetration of Rose definitively closes the accounts.
New York:Randle 35 (9/19, 3/8, 8/8 tl), Fournier 32, Barrett 19. Rebounds: Robinson 17. Assists: Randle 9.
Boston: Brown 46 (8/16, 8/14, 6/8 tl), Tatum 20, Williams III 16. Rebounds: Tatum 11. Assists: Schroder 8.

New interpreters but everything always revolves around LaVine. DeRozan and Ball, making their debut in the Bulls jersey, are appreciated above all for the spirit of sacrifice, the Chicago All Star, on the other hand, is devastating in attack, signing 15 of his 34 points in the third period and leading the Windy City team to success in Detroit. An alternating current Grant closes with 24 points while both a disastrous Hayes (0/6 from the field) and Joseph (1/6) catch up.
Detroit: Grant 24 (5/15, 3/5, 5/5 tl), Bey 13, Stewart 12. Rebounds: Bey 9. Assists: Bey 4.
Chicago: LaVine 34 (10/12, 1/5, 11/11 tl), DeRozan 17, Vucevic 15. Rebounds: Vucevic 15. Assists: LaVine, Ball, Vucevic 4.

A 21-point lead in the third quarter for the Pacers isn’t enough to knock out Charlotte. LaMelo Ball (31 points with 7/9 from long distance) is not there and drags the home team to the partial of 24-0 in the third fraction that brings the Hornets back in front. The match returns to balance and is played point by point until, 12 ” from the siren, Washington’s free throwers put Charlotte back in front. Sabonis (33 points and 15 rebounds) at the end of the middle distance does not find the retina, the Hornets thus bring home the deserved success.
Charlotte: Ball 31 (4/14, 7/9, 2/2 tl), Hayward 27, Oubre Jr., Smith 14. Rebounds: Plumlee 10.
Indiana: Sabonis 33 (9/13, 4/6, 3/4 tl), Brogdon 28, Duarte 27. Rebounds: Sabonis 15 Assist: Brogdon 11.

Nba basketball finally returns to Toronto, after the season played by the Raptors in Tampa due to Covid restrictions in Canada, but the debut is not the best for the Nurse coach club. The Raptors, without the injured Siakam, have an incredible effort in attack and in the end they shoot with 30% from the field. Beal (23 points) and Harrell (22) have fun, the Wizards also reach +29 and manage the match without problems until the end.
Toronto: VanVleet 12 (4/11, 1/9, 1/1 tl), Barnes 12 (5/12, 0/1, 2/3 tl), Anunoby 11. Rebounds: Anunoby 11. Assists: Dragic, VanVleet 4.

A super Morant thinks about allowing the Grizzlies to start with their feet. Memphis plays a great basketball in the first half, reaches +16 but has to suffer the return of the Cavs, led by an infallible Allen in the painted area (11/11 from the field). In the final minutes, however, the leader of the Grizzlies, assisted by an excellent Bane (22 points) takes the chair and Memphis takes over the reins of the match keeping Cleveland at a distance.
Memphis: Morant 37 (16/25, 1/4, 2/2 tl), Bane 22, Melton 20 Rebounds: Adams 14 .. Assist: Morant 6.
Cleveland: Allen 25 (11/11, 3/4 tl), Sexton, Mobley 17. Rebounds: Mobley, Markkanen 9. Assists: Garland 12.
