Recap Roundups
March 03, 2017
Philadelphia 105, New York 102
When the Philadelphia 76ers traded center/forward Nerlens Noel to Dallas on Feb. 23, the perception was that they did not receive enough in return.
Toronto 114, Washington 106
The Toronto Raptors' second unit couldn't have played much worse in Wednesday's loss against the Washington Wizards. When the teams shifted their home-and-home series below the border, their production pointed straight north. Having All-Star DeMar DeRozan save his best for last certainly helped.
Orlando 110, Miami 99
In a season filled with disappointment and frustration, the Orlando Magic finally felt good about the direction they are moving.
Cleveland 135, Atlanta 130
The Cleveland Cavaliers have been on a 3-point binge since the first of the year. On Friday, they took it step further and set an NBA record in the process.
Milwaukee 112, L.A. Clippers 101
Khris Middleton is showing exactly how much the Milwaukee Bucks missed him over the first 50 games of the season.
Dallas 104, Memphis 100
In his first start with his new team, center Nerlens Noel notched his second double-double of the season to lead the Dallas Mavericks to a 104-100 victory against the Memphis Grizzlies on Friday night at American Airlines Center.
Utah 112, Brooklyn 97
Measuring his most recent game by his own personal standards, George Hill came away feeling dissatisfied with his performance. Hill did not feel like he was doing enough to get involved in the offense.
Phoenix 118, Oklahoma City 111
Another big scoring night and near-triple-double by Russell Westbrook was trumped by a balanced attack from the scrappy Phoenix Suns.
San Antonio 101, New Orleans 98
The San Antonio Spurs were down five quick points in overtime Friday night, but they had the New Orleans Pelicans right where they wanted them.
Boston 115, L.A. Lakers 95
Coming off a big win Wednesday over the Cleveland Cavaliers, Isaiah Thomas and the Boston Celtics didn't want to let their guards down Friday night against the struggling Los Angeles Lakers.
