The MVP of the night | Dejounte Murray tripped the Bulls | NBA

The hugs from Gregg Popovich and Spurs players with DeMar DeRozan, former home just crowned with a 5th participation in the All-Star Game, were all the warmer. In full reconstruction, San Antonio has still managed some nice shots this year, and this victory against the Bulls is one more. Left behind in the standings, the Texans will be able to console themselves by enjoying the evolution of Dejounte Murray this season, the new leader of a formation accustomed to rub shoulders with the peaks for more than 25 years. In addition to having reached a milestone this season, he symbolizes rather well the spirit of the Spurs which advocates above all the strength of the collective. Last night, beyond his 29 points, he still delivered 12 assists, almost a third of his team's offerings, a...

Munich/Cincinnati - It was an afternoon for the history books as the Cincinnati Bengals won the divisional playoffs at the Tennessee Titans.Not only did the guests from Ohio end their long dry spell in terms of away wins in the playoffs, but the Titans also set a record: Joe Burrow was sacked nine times, a playoff high. The reason for this lies not only in the Titans' excellent pass rush, but also in the Bengals' holey offensive line.Burrow injured by weak O-Line - Chase over Sewell in draftThis isn't a new problem with the Bengals.

Kelly Oubre Jr, the human torch of the Hornets | NBA

Forced into solitary confinement on January 10, Kelly Oubre Jr. was obviously not thrilled. But he was all the less so as he was doing well offensively, notably coming out of a match with 32 points, including a very strong 9/14 from 3-pointers in a very offensive victory against Detroit (140-111) . Returning to business a week ago, the Hornets winger had lost his offensive punch with three of his first four return games between 8 and 12 points, and this at a more than questionable address (11/38 on shots) . A record-breaking evening "I'm still trying to find my rhythm", he said the other night in the Charlotte Observer after a night at 1/9 at 3-pointers. “I have to go back to the gym tomorrow and focus on my fundamentals, find the rhythm and get back to the routine I had before b...
