Two games of Eastern conference play in action on a
Wednesday. I'm be Estes with your fast break from
nba.com in the 78 match up the seventh seed in
Philadelphia 76ers hung on in thrilling fashion to take down
the Miami heat 105 to 104 in the victory.
Joel and Bead goes for 23 points and 15 rebounds
and coming off the bench, it was Nick Batum
firing for 20 points on six of 10 3 pointers
and with the win, the Philadelphia 76ers move on
into the Eastern conference playoffs to take on the New
York Knicks. And after the game, here's what
bench hero, Nick Batum had to say. I
mean, buddy, when you came in, he
was like, we got to shoot and we did
that so we know the F for, for him
and then we did a good job of singing out
in the 910 matchup. The Chicago Bulls took down
the Atlanta Hawks 131 to 116, the absolute star
in this one. Kobe White 42 points on 15
of 21 shooting. He was three of seven on
threes. He mixed in nine bounds and dished out
six assists as well. This means Chicago advances to
take on the Miami Heat for that eight seed in
the Eastern conference after the game. Here's what Kobe
White had to say about his superstar performance. I'm
just so grateful, you know, about the progress
that I put in. It works finally show um
the opportunity that I was given by this organization and
I just wanted to capitalize and take advantage of it
. So I'm so, I'm so grateful, man
