Four games were played on Saturday as the NBA Playoffs continued.
Eastern Conference:
At Indianapolis:
With Danny Granger scoring 24 points and grabbing 10 rebounds, the Indiana Pacers withstood a furious Chicago rally, foiling the Bulls' hopes of sweeping the series by winning game four of their conference quarterfinal series 89-84 at home to cut Chicago's series lead to three games to one. It was the Pacers' first playoff win since 2006. The Bulls can still win the series with a game-five win at home on Tuesday
Western Conference:
At Portland, Oregon:
Brandon Roy scored 18 of his 24 points the fourth quarter, including the go-ahead bank shot with 39.2 seconds remaining as the Portland Trail Blazers overcame a 23-point deficit in the final 14 minutes as they defeated the visiting Dallas Mavericks 84-82 to square their opening-round series at two games apiece.
At Memphis, Tennessee:
Zach Randolph scored 25 points, three of them on a game-clinching basket with 41.9 seconds remaining as the Memphis Grizzlies knocked off the visiting San Antonio Spurs 91-88 for their first-ever home playoff victory, giving them a two-games-to-one lead in their first-round series.
At Denver:
Kevin Durant scored 26 points while Serge Ibaka added 22 while pulling down a career-high 16 rebounds and the Oklahoma City Thunder held off the Denver Nuggets 97-94 on the road in game three to lead their first-round series three games to none.
