Grandpas Lowry and Love resist

NBA – Kyle Lowry made his experience and his intelligence speak at the end of the match, when Kevin Love was precious with his long raises.

Tyler Herro and Victor Oladipo on the flank, the Heat needed to find other resources to relieve Jimmy Butler and snatch Game 1 in New York. And it was Kyle Lowry, very discreet against the Bucks, who showed up.

With 18 points at 3/6 from afar, plus 6 assists and 5 rebounds, the leader released a “vintage” performance.

“Lowry is a winner. He is our leader, whether he starts or comes off the bench. explained Jimmy Butler. “He’s a champion, and he’s done a good job for us all year since he’s been here. It has an engine that allows us to move forward, and we are going to take advantage of this wave. »

Embarrassed by his knee for long weeks, Kyle Lowry has yet lost his place in the team’s five major, and he let his teammates afford the scalp of the Bucks. But he knew the Heat needed him.

“Lowry is an incredible warrior” confirmed his coach, Erik Spoestra. “He’s been able to do crazy things for us, even on one leg, this season. But these five weeks, during which he was able to get away a little and focus on his health to be present in these kinds of moments, have been critical. He’s a real winner. Who shows up when you need him most. »

As in the fourth quarter, where his science and experience allowed the Heat to avoid the return of the Knicks despite the injury of Jimmy Butler, or to recover disputed free throws to break the rhythm.

launched Kevin Love. “He’s so smart. I ran up to him to tell him he was such a smart asshole. He knew what to do in the last four minutes. It was between him and Bam (Adebayo) and the others had to do their job around it. It was wonderful to see a guy that I’ve looked up to so much in my career, and to be able to grow with him as he does his thing. »

Next to the 37-year-old point guard, the 34-year-old strong winger was also invaluable, in particular thanks to his long passes, which hit the mark several times to feed the Heat’s “momentum”.

“We don’t teach that kind of stuff” concluded Erik Spoelstra. “It’s just an amazing weapon. There aren’t many players in this league who can throw passes from 25 yards, or who can see those kinds of openings and find their target. It really is an amazing weapon to have in your arsenal. »

A weapon that he made Aaron Rodgers, new quarterback of the New York Jets, present in the front row admire.
