Detroit -Two teams have the chance tonight to advance in the NBA playoffs against franchise companies that play a game 6 in their home place in every conference.

All four teams will count on important players that they added last year.

The third New York Knicks will achieve a second shot to remove the sixth Detroit Pistons in a first round of the Eastern Conference. In the night tongue, the fourth Denver Nuggets have the first opportunity to cross the fifth Los Angeles Clipper in the west.

New York, to reach the Eastern Conference final since 2000, made Win-now movements to acquire Karl-Antony Towns and Mikal Bridges to supplement Jalen Brunson. With Brunson in game 5 cities and bridges scored 17 points each.

Detroit, who was desperately looking for relevance, welcomed Tobias Harris for a second tour with the team as part of a busy summer that surrounded Cade Cunningham with some veterans.

In a cross-season victory in New York on Tuesday evening, Harris was the first Pistons player in a playoff game that filled the box value with 17 points, eight rebounds, four blocks, two assists and two steals.

“He is our security blanket,” said Detroit coach JB Bickerstaff. “He is reliable. He is reliable. He understands what has to happen at the moment. He is an incredible person, incredible teammate. Violent competitor.”

Denver tried to win an NBA title for the second time in two years.

Westbrook, who looked like the MVP, had 13 points in a seven-minute route in the first half of game 5 and ended with 21 points of a 131:115 win in Denver, who scored the Nuggets in the series 3-2 lead.

Los Angeles, who was looking for a new formula to win after she had decided not to keep all-star Paul George, added with subtle steps such as the acquisition of Kris Dunn from Utah in one trade, on which Westbrook gave the Kawhi Leonard-led team more depth.

Dunn, who started every playoff game, scored 15 points on Tuesday evening for his second double-digit rating against Denver.
