Recap Roundups
November 08, 2016
Atlanta 110, Cleveland 106
The results count more in May than they do November, but the Atlanta Hawks had to start somewhere. Given how the last two seasons ended against the Cleveland Cavaliers, this will do for now.
Brooklyn 119, Minnesota 110
At halftime, coach Kenny Atkinson had a forceful but succinct message for the Brooklyn Nets.
Memphis 108, Denver 107
Vince Carter turned back the clock with a 20-point game. But it was his inbounds pass to center Marc Gasol that was his biggest play and set up the Grizzlies' buzzer-beating 108-107 victory over the Denver Nuggets on Tuesday night at FedExForum.
Portland 124, Phoenix 121
The first quarter was CJ McCollum's. The fourth quarter was Damian Lillard's.
Dallas 109, L.A. Lakers 97
After a 31-point performance in a win over the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday, Dallas Mavericks forward Harrison Barnes didn't blink when asked his thoughts on facing his former club, the Golden State Warriors, for the first time Wednesday.
Sacramento 102, New Orleans 94
Dave Joerger has been preaching an old-fashioned message since the first day of camp, repeating it like an old vinyl record on a turntable with a needle that skips.
Sacramento 102, New Orleans 94
DeMarcus Cousins scored 28 points, but it was two consecutive defensive plays that helped the Sacramento Kings pull away for a 102-94 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday at Golden 1 Center.
