Of course, the Italian did not have much time to prove himself this season, since the coronavirus made its own adjustments to the tour, but during the time when he had the opportunity to play, he did not show decent tennis. From the latter, it is worth remembering the match at the US Open, where Sinner opposed Karen Khachanov. Yannick managed to make his opponent nervous, although he lacked the strength for all five games. The representative of Italy loves to play on clay and, in principle, is ready to rebuff an opponent, whom he is 17 years younger. In short, an interesting confrontation awaits us.
The Lakes showed a class in the first round of the playoffs, when Portland passed. However, do not forget that before that Damian Lillard and company spent a lot of energy, whereas Frank Vogel’s guys just put the squeeze on the opponent in five matches. It is impossible to act so confidently against Houston, because the opponent is of a higher class compared to the blazers. The team from Los Angeles lost at the start of the second series (97-112). However, they realized their mistakes and corrected the situation in the last fight (117-109). The Lakers will take to the floor as a favorite, but so far the club is no different from opponents in terms of play, so it is too early to give out such statuses.
