NBA／第四節大爆發拯救尼克 唐斯破紀錄獻給天上母親
東區冠軍賽第二戰第四節被棄用的尼克當家中鋒唐斯（Karl-Anthony Towns），在今天作客溜馬的比賽中反而成了拯救紐約的終極英雄。
前三節僅拿到4分的唐斯，第四節一開始就火力全開，單局9投6中包含3記三分球在內，一個人狂砍20分，帶領尼克從10分落後一舉扭轉比分，最終演出逆轉秀，避免落入3連敗深淵。
「前三節對我來說表現很掙扎，但我只想盡一切努力幫助球隊贏球。」唐斯說。

根據統計，此戰拿下24分15籃板的唐斯成為尼克隊史第4位在東區冠軍賽至少拿到20分15籃板的球員，前3人分別是名人堂巨星狄博學（Dave DeBusschere）、尤恩（Patrick Ewing）和瑞德（Willis Reed），其中狄博學完成4次，另外兩人各兩次。
此外，從1997年季後賽以來，能夠在第四節至少拿到20分的尼克球員僅有兩人，一個是上季布朗森（Jalen Brunson）的21分，唐斯則是排名在後。唐斯在第四節拿到20分8籃板，前一次有這種表現的已經要追溯到2006年的諾維茨基（Dirk Nowitzki），當時他在對太陽的第5戰得到22分8籃板。
「當我有機會在第四節發揮我的作用時，我確保我抓住了這個機會。我只想上場去幫助球隊贏球。很高興我做到了。」唐斯說。
唐斯的母親在2020年的新冠疫情中不幸過世，在這場逆轉勝的賽後，唐斯也拿自己的優異表現告慰母親。「今天是多明尼加的母親節，我要向我媽媽致敬。」

Giannis Antetokounmpo next team odds: Knicks, Spurs rumored trade targets for Bucks star
Gambling content 21+. The New York Post may receive an affiliate commission if you sign up through our links. Read our editorial standards for more information. Giannis Antetokounmpo is the biggest domino that could fall this NBA offseason. The Bucks' star has already been the subject of trade rumors despite the NBA Finals not yet starting. DraftKings' oddsmakers have a new betting market up with money already flowing in on a potential trade, although the two-time MVP is still expected to start the season in Milwaukee (-140 odds, 58.33 percent implied). The Spurs are the most likely team to acquire the Greek Freak, with +380 odds (20.83 percent implied likelihood). A duo of Antetokounmpo and Victor Wembanyama would be scary and form perhaps the best defensive big man pairing in league history. Antetokounmpo is a former Defensive Player of the Year, while Wembanyama was a massive favorite to win the award last year before being shut down due to a blood clot issue. There surely will be a massive market for Antetokounmpo if the Bucks opt to field offers for him. The Spurs are followed by the Rockets (+450), Raptors (+800), Mavericks (12/1) and Thunder (13/1). The Knicks, whom some fans had hoped would be in the market, are thought of as long shots to acquire him, coming in at 16/1 odds. Giannis Antetokounmpo is a perennial MVP and Defensive Player of the Year candidate. Getty Images Betting on the NBA? The Post's Brian Lewis reported that the Nets were hoarding draft capital with Antetokounmpo in mind, but DraftKings views that as a 20/1 long shot. The NBA hot stove will really tip off when the NBA Finals complete and the new league year officially begins July 1.

Phoenix Suns Make Right Call Hiring Jordan Ott As New Head Coach
LAS VEGAS, NEVADA - JULY 18: Summer League head coach Jordan Ott of the Cleveland Cavaliers looks on ... More against the Los Angeles Lakers in the first half of a 2024 NBA Summer League game at the Thomas & Mack Center on July 18, 2024 in Las Vegas, Nevada. The Lakers defeated the Cavaliers 93-89. NOTE TO USER: User expressly acknowledges and agrees that, by downloading and or using this photograph, User is consenting to the terms and conditions of the Getty Images License Agreement. (Photo by) After a long and diligent search, the Phoenix Suns have chosen their successor to Mike Budenholzer. On Wednesday, it was announced that the team would be naming Cleveland Cavaliers assistant coach Jordan Ott as their new head coach. This decision is ironic for two reasons. First, both Ott and Mat Ishbia (the majority owner of the team, who has become known for questionable decision-making) are Michigan State Spartan Alum (as am I, for the record). And second, so long as he doesn't get traded this offseason, this will be Devin Booker's seventh non-interim head coach since being drafted by the Suns in 2015. That is tied for the most coaches in a tenure with one team in NBA history. Despite the comedic value sprinkled into this situation, the Suns did a good job with this hiring. No matter what anyone tells you, we never know how these things will play out with absolute certainty. So, all we can do is focus on having a good process for our decisions and hope that fate smiles in our direction. In this case, the Suns exercised some good process. As mentioned in the reporting around this signing, the Suns interviewed 15 different candidates for this job. Juxtapose this with the Sacramento Kings, who didn't interview a single other coach before removing Doug Christie's interim tag. Even if Christie ends up being the better hire than Ott, the Suns' strategy was far more commendable and will lead to better results over a larger sample. The Suns also made sure to avoid star-hunting this time around. With their last two coaches (Frank Vogel and Mike Budenholzer), it seemed like they were more amused with their championship pedigree than confident that they were the right guys to lead their specific roster. Ott is on the opposite end of this spectrum. He's a rising star whose best days are still in front of him. Ott was a part of the staff that took the mismatched Cavaliers roster and made them one of the best offenses in the history of the sport. Ott didn't do it all on his lonesome, but it seems like he did play an integral role in their success. Here is a quote from Shams Charania in his newsbreaking story: The key here is that Ott was able to take a team with an imbalanced roster and figure out how to best maximize their strengths while also minimizing their weaknesses. With most of their money tied up in three players who share more or less the same set of skills (albeit to varying degrees) and a bunch of flawed complimentary pieces, the Suns have arguably the least cohesive roster in the league. Ott is the perfect person to tackle this unique challenge. With this said, it does look very likely that Kevin Durant has played his last game with the Suns. So, he won't be dealing with exactly the same core that Vogel and Budenholzer worked with him before him. Still, given their limited draft resources and lack of young talent, this is still quite the mess for Ott to clean up. Regardless of whether or not Ott ends up being the savior this franchise desperately needs, the Suns did a good job with their hiring process this time around, and we need to remember this moment when we are reviewing this situation in the future.

LeBron James Makes Strong Alex Caruso Statement Before NBA Finals
LeBron James Makes Strong Alex Caruso Statement Before NBA Finals originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The NBA finals tip off Thursday night from Paycom Center in Oklahoma City, where the hometown Thunder host the Indiana Pacers. It's a winner-take-all, best-of-seven series and both teams are chasing their first-ever NBA championship. Advertisement With a break after the conclusion of the Western and Eastern Conference finals, analysts and fans had time to dissect every matchup. Over a full series, the strategies and adjustments will be fascinating to watch. It seems every NBA finals features a wildcard who makes a game-changing impact. For Oklahoma City, that player might be someone who's already been there and done that. On the latest episode of the "Mind the Game" podcast, LeBron James made a strong statement about his former teammate, Alex Caruso. James, joined by Steve Nash, praised Caruso's versatile defensive abilities. 'Then they come off the bench with one of my favorite teammates of all time in Alex Caruso.' Advertisement When Nash chimed in and called Caruso a 'DOG,' LeBron doubled down. 'He's like the ultimate Swiss Army knife. We've seen him guard Giannis, the Joker, ANT, Julius Randle, Jamal Murray, all in this postseason.' "You check the plus/minus after the game, and AC might have five points, three rebounds, two assists and his plus/minus will be a [expletive] 17.' James added. Oklahoma City Thunder guard Alex Caruso (9). Alonzo Adams/Imagn Images Later in the episode, James recalled one of his favorite plays from Oklahoma City's run to the finals. "AC was guarding the ball on the left wing, I think it was Anthony Edwards. Edwards got to the middle, which you try to avoid, but he's so dynamic, it's going to happen. After getting some help at the nail, AC still recovered to contest the corner 3.' James said. Advertisement 'Instead of just standing and watching after the help, he sprinted to the corner and contested the shot. That kind of hustle affects outcomes. With that kind of effort, they're going to keep winning.' Caruso entered the NBA undrafted in 2016 and eventually earned a spot on the 2020 championship Lakers alongside James. He won the NBA Hustle Award in 2024, made the NBA All-Defensive First Team in 2023, and the second team last season. In the 2024–25 season, Caruso played 54 games and averaged 7.1 points per game.
