Basketball: NBA; Phoenix beats LA in the final 28 years later – Sport

(ANSA) – LOS ANGELES, JUL 01 – The Phoenix Suns qualified for the third NBA final in their history by beating the Los Angeles Clippers 130-103 away, thanks above all to a formidable Chris Paul, author of 41 points. The Arizona franchise will have the opportunity to clinch its first title, but will have to beat the Milwaukee Bucks or Atlanta Hawks, currently 2-2 in their series. In this sensational victory in Game # 6 of the Western Conference Finals, Phoenix can therefore thank point guard Chris Paul who, with 41 points and 67% shooting successes, was instrumental in Los Angeles. A supremacy that made Patrick Beverley lose his head: the latter pushed him when the game was stopped, making himself expelled. In his first season with the Phoenix, the 36-year-old veteran will participate in his first NBA final. After those of 1976 and 1993, 2021 will see the third final appearance for the Suns, who lost 28 years ago to Michael Jordan’s Bulls. (HANDLE).
