NBA Play-offs: Game 4 also to LA Lakers, Golden State risks
Butler takes Heat one step closer to conference finals in East
Spectacle on NBA playoff night. The LA Lakers did not betray expectations and, at home, also won Game 4 (104-101) against Golden State, taking a 3-1 lead in the series. Decisive game in the last period, won by the yellowviola with a 27-17 partial. For a change, James (27 points) and Davis (23 points and 15 rebounds) shined. In the Warriors’ house, a 31-point Curry was not enough.
In the East, Miami smiles as it beats New York again (109-101) and thus flies to 3-1 in the series, one step away from the conference finals. The usual Butler makes the difference in favor of the Heat (27 points). Brunson scores 32 points but the Knicks still have to raise the white flag.
