The National Basketball Association announced all of its conference finalists last night.

The final quarterfinal matches of the NBA playoffs ended unexpectedly last night. Both the favorites lost on their own court and exited the tournament.

N.Y lost without chance Indiana. The visitors did not give Nix not even a quarter and the opponent lost completely 130:109.

An even greater sensation occurred in Denver, where Nuggets lost Minnesota. The hosts, the reigning champions, confidently beat Wolves after the first half by +15 points.

However, the guests did not give up, came back in the third quarter, and in the fourth they finally grabbed the victory and a ticket to the conference finals.
