NUEVA YORK (AP) El thriller del s\u00e9ptimo juego, el primer juego de vida o muerte de la NBA en ir a tiempo extra en 15 a\u00f1os, se redujo a una cuesti\u00f3n de cent\u00edmetros.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Si la estrella de Brooklyn Kevin Durant estaba un poco m\u00e1s lejos, o si su pie era un poco m\u00e1s peque\u00f1o, termina el Juego 7 con mayor puntuaci\u00f3n de un jugador de la NBA con un triple para ganar la serie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abTuvimos suerte de que su dedo del pie estuviera en la l\u00ednea y lo llamaron un 2\u00bb, dijo Khris Middleton de Milwaukee. \u00abPero una vez que haga ese tiro, tenemos que olvidarlo\u00bb. Todav\u00eda queda juego de pelota. Ese no era el juego \u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Y dada una segunda oportunidad, los Bucks la canjearon por un boleto a las finales de la Conferencia Este.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Los Bucks resistieron el r\u00e9cord de la NBA de 48 puntos de Durant en un Juego 7, venciendo a los Nets 115-111 el s\u00e1bado por la noche.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Giannis Antetokounmpo tuvo 40 puntos y 13 rebotes, y Middleton hizo el tiro de desempate con 40 segundos por jugarse en tiempo extra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bb Al final del d\u00eda, trato de no drogarme demasiado, no bajar demasiado. Pero casi me emocion\u00e9 un poco porque el equipo realmente hizo todo lo posible \u00bb, dijo Antetokounmpo. \u00bb Mantuvimos la compostura. Est\u00e1bamos abajo 2-0. Mucha gente no cre\u00eda que pudi\u00e9ramos lograrlo \u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Los Bucks aguantaron cuando Durant fall\u00f3 dos tiros en salto tard\u00edos, el \u00faltimo una bola de aire con 0.3 segundos restantes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bb Tuvimos buena presencia all\u00ed en el tiempo extra. Simplemente no los derribamos \u00bb, dijo Durant. \u00bb Respeto a los Milwaukee Bucks en c\u00f3mo se preparan, c\u00f3mo nos desafiaron a todas las series e hicieron ajustes en todas las series. No tenemos nada m\u00e1s que respeto por ese club de b\u00e9isbol \u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Middleton agreg\u00f3 23 puntos y 10 rebotes para los Bucks, que llegaron a la final del Este por segunda vez en tres a\u00f1os. Jugar\u00e1n contra Filadelfia o Atlanta en una serie que comienza el mi\u00e9rcoles por la noche.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Durant jug\u00f3 los 53 minutos y forz\u00f3 el tiempo extra con un tiro en salto que estuvo a solo unos cent\u00edmetros de ser un triple que lo habr\u00eda ganado con un segundo por jugarse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abPero mi gran pie pis\u00f3 la l\u00ednea\u00bb, dijo. \u00abAcabo de ver lo cerca que estaba de terminar su temporada con ese tiro\u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Durant agreg\u00f3 nueve rebotes y seis asistencias, pero no tuvo suficiente ayuda con el lesionado Kyrie Irving mirando desde la l\u00ednea de fondo y James Harden incapaz de ubicar su tiro despu\u00e9s de perderse la mayor parte de los primeros cuatro juegos con tensi\u00f3n en el tend\u00f3n de la corva derecho.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Harden tuvo 22 puntos, nueve rebotes y nueve asistencias, pero acert\u00f3 5 de 17 tiros de campo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abEstaba saliendo y tratando de dar todo lo que puedo y es frustrante\u00bb, dijo Harden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

En una serie en la que los equipos a menudo no produc\u00edan la calidad de juego que se esperaba entre los dos equipos con mayor puntuaci\u00f3n de la liga, el Juego 7 fue un juego emocionante, el primero en necesitar tiempo extra desde que Dallas venci\u00f3 a San Antonio en las semifinales de la Conferencia Oeste de 2006. .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NEW YORK (AP) A Game 7 thriller, the NBA’s first do-or-die game to go to overtime in 15 years, came down to a matter of inches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If Brooklyn star Kevin Durant was just slightly farther away – or if his foot was slightly smaller – he ends the highest-scoring Game 7 ever by an NBA player with a 3-pointer to win the series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bbWe got lucky his toe was on the line and they called it a 2,\u00bb Milwaukee’s Khris Middleton said. \u00bbBut once he hits that shot, we’ve got to forget about it. There’s still ballgame left. That wasn’t the game.\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And given a second chance, the Bucks cashed it in for a ticket to the Eastern Conference finals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bucks withstood Durant’s NBA-record 48 points in a Game 7, beating the Nets 115-111 on Saturday night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Giannis Antetokounmpo had 40 points and 13 rebounds, and Middleton made the tiebreaking shot with 40 seconds left in OT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bbAt the end of the day, I try not to get too high, not to get too low. But I almost got emotional a little bit out there because the team really tried their best,\u00bb Antetokounmpo said. \u00bbWe kept our composure. We were down 2-0. A lot of people didn’t believe we could make it.\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bucks held on when Durant missed two late jumpers, the last an airball with 0.3 seconds remaining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bbWe got good looks there in overtime. We just didn’t knock them down,\u00bb Durant said. \u00bbRespect to the Milwaukee Bucks in how they prepare, how they challenged us all series and made adjustments all series. We’ve got nothing but respect for that ballclub.\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Middleton added 23 points and 10 rebounds for the Bucks, who reached the East finals for the second time in three years. They will play either Philadelphia or Atlanta in a series that starts Wednesday night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Durant played all 53 minutes and forced OT with a turnaround jumper that was just inches from being a 3-pointer that would have won it with a second left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bbBut my big ass foot stepped on the line,\u00bb he said. \u00bbI just saw how close I was to ending their season with that shot.\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Durant added nine rebounds and six assists, but didn’t have enough help with injured Kyrie Irving watching from the baseline and James Harden unable to locate his shot after missing most of the first four games with right hamstring tightness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Harden had 22 points, nine rebounds and nine assists, but was 5 for 17 from the field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bbI was just going out there and trying to give everything I can and it’s just frustrating,\u00bb Harden said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a series where the teams often didn’t produce the quality of play that was anticipated between the league’s two highest-scoring teams, Game 7 was a thriller, the first to need extra time since Dallas beat San Antonio in the 2006 Western Conference semifinals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
