Partite tra certezze e sorprese. Le certezze sono San Antonio che si sbarazza di Indiana, a cui non basta un Granger stellare, con i soliti Parker e Duncan, Boston s’impone sul parquet amico del “Garden” su Atlanta senza Kevin Garnett che tornerà per i playoff e i Lakers che battono Houston in una partita tirata ma che alla fine Bryant e compagni sono riusciti a portare a casa.
Ordinaria amministrazione per Miami, Portland e Phoenix.
