2024 NBA Season

[Finestream]

what a game for timberwolves they escape from gsw with only one points wow, i lost my handicapped gsw is nothing without KD anymore.

Yeah, congratulations to them, they really want to be in the playoffs. They are racing now in the eight seed..
The Dallas, Minny, and Nuggets have their win today so it's going to be an exciting season for them. I'm rooting for the Dallas to get the 8th seed
as I feel they are more exciting to watch and definitely a good team as well. Dirk is making an upset if they will be in playoffs.

I like to see Dallas vs Warriors in the first round and upset the warriors, what do you see fellas?

Detroit Pistons 106 - 101 Cleveland Cavaliers

Too bad the Cavs lost, though they showed a very good game for this match. But I guess the crowd does really make a big factor when it comes with the cheers and crowd control. That's why Piston got the crowd since they are in their home court. The first quarter got by Cavs but I like the buzzer beater by Pistons.

The Pistons played exceptionally well, especially their top guys, Andre Drummond and Reggie Jackson. If they keep playing like that game in and game out, they would easily make it in the playoffs. But we have seen how they have had problems with their consistency all season long. As for the Cavs, even if Lebron had another stellar performance, they still ended up short and are now 5-5 in their last 10 games.

I really thought that the Cavs will get this game because they showed good in the first half but Pistons isn't that easy to beat. They went through a hard time before getting the lead of this game. And this game is really close I like the excitement they gave to me while sitting on my chair watching this game. Lebron will revenge and win for their next game to magic.

I'm sure the Cavaliers will find a way to break their losing streak. The Pistons are really good at home and most especially in the fourth quarter, not a good come back for JR Smith as they lose in the game. I guess most of us has put our money in Cleveland Cavaliers as -4.5 is really tempting and we have known the Cavaliers good in taking revenge but they disappointed us in this game.

This season is full of surprises and I guess it's already a cycle, after a team's lost they will revenge for their upcoming games. I believe that Cav's will do a comeback for the next match they've got. And if I were you people better to hold out your horses and bet with them no matter what will be the odd, they will win.

Minnesota Timberwolves 103 - 102 Golden State Warriors

Woah that was a close fight I thought that GSW will get this win. Sure thing they got a wolve pack as seen on their twitter page. Wiggins did a big helped to win this game together with Towns for helping to win this game. The same thing with Cavs they lose so probably they will nail a win with their next match.

Yeah i find it weird that gsw started losing after durant went out. I mean, they didn't have durant last season, they havr steph, klay at pretty much the core of their championship team so i didn't expect they'd mind durant's absence this much. And dallas would be a fun opponent for any number 1 team in the west. I think they're riding on dirk's milestone for momentum and hopefully they get that spot. Though the young wolves, portland and nee orleans may very well give them a good run for nbr 8

4 defeats in their last 6 games played for Golden State! now officially in crisis.
 Keeps pulling badly by 3 points S. Curry (1 of .
Now they have to get back in shape and self-confidence if they want to try to win the nba.

Important wins for Denver, Minnesota, Milwaukee and Dallas to fight to the last useful places for the playoffs.
Wins also Charlotte but maybe it's too late to get back in the fight for the playoffs

[Lionidas]

I was surprised that Denver beat up on Celtics last night.
That's why I prefer to bet on over on points but they were only two I would of bet on and when I do pick I usually only pick 3 games so i would lost that ticket on parlays anyways.

Yeah, me too, in fact I lose my bet on them. Denver are really fighting for there chance in the playoffs and we should give that credits to them.
Right now they are still in the number 8 seed and next game will be against the Sacramento Kings which I think an easy one.
As long as Jukic is their, you can expect they will fight to win, they are a much improve team this season based on my observation.

Toronto Raptors Vs Miami Heat

Raptors may be the better team according to NBA standings but since 17 Jan this year, they have a 20-4 record. It is incredible as Heat had only won 10 games last year since the start of the season.
Heat has made 10 or more 3-pointers 31 times this season which already ties the NBA record. On the other hand, Raptors only made 4 3-pointers in their last game against Hawks. There is a very high chance that Heat will break their 3-pointers record and it will help them outscore against the Raptors. My bet is on Heat -5 at home.

I agree, Heat are on a fairy tale run and they have just lost 4 times in last 20 and have exceeded all expectations even after injuries to some of their starters. They are just 0.5 games behind the 8th spot and 1 game behind 7th. On par with Chicago Bulls but I think Heat will make it to the playoffs the way things are going. All the players have been impressive with Goran Dragic leading with points scored and assists.

This is an interesting discussion. Who are the most dangerous teams for the postseason?"

Playoffs are just about five weeks away so let's see some teams on the table. It was categorized by:

The Cannon Fodder
Denver Nuggets
Portland Trail Blazers
Detroit Pistons

The Surgers
Dallas Mavericks
Minnesota Timberwolves
Milwaukee Bucks
Indiana Pacers
Chicago Bulls

Not enough firepower, but admirable
Miami Heat
Atlanta Hawks
Oklahoma City Thunder
Memphis Grizzlies

The Near-The-Tops
Toronto Raptors
Utah Jazz
Boston Celtics
Los Angeles Clippers
Washington Wizards

The Contenders
San Antonio Spurs
Houston Rockets
Golden State Warriors
Cleveland Cavaliers

I like to make my own analyzation about the mentioned teams but it will take a long post and I doubt anyone will exchange discussion to me.

For a glimpse I will point my fave team Mavs that include in the list. It's a surprise to me that they still able to have some percentage to make room for the playoffs. I already sees lower chance for it since the season started but not it changed. Lots of surprises from  Seth Curry, Yogi Ferrell and Nerlens Noel that formed out of nowhere.

[agustina2]

The Cannon Fodder
Denver Nuggets
Portland Trail Blazers
Detroit Pistons

Laughed at the "Cannon Fodder" category lol. "The term is generally used in situations where combatants are forced to deliberately fight against hopeless odds (with the foreknowledge that they will suffer extremely high casualties) in an effort to achieve a strategic goal."

The teams mentioned are playing around 7th and 8th spot. If they able to make it to the playoffs they will really face those monster teams on "The Contenders". I remember Memphis Grizzlies here as they able to defeat the top seed San Antonio Spurs while sitting on the 8th spot. Just don't know what season year is that.

[StephenCurry333]

Warriors @ Spurs
Most teams without their superstar would be in big trouble but not this San Antonio team. Leonard will not be on the floor for Spurs but the veteran depth picks up the pieces and beats struggling Warriors. Golden State has not been good recently and don't see it changing on the road tonight. i will take Spurs to win by double digits tonight.

[BetAdviser]

Thanks for the Washington Wizards, you save my day. I lose most of my bets today since since mostly of the dogs covers and to my dismay it made me chase my loses with my remaining money in my bankroll and was able to get Wizards at odds 2.40 and luckily they won in OT.

I don't win that much but it's a good day to save my big loses..

And like him, I'm also lucky today..

Nice analysis harizen, Houston Rockets as a contender gives me some doubts but I guess it's a real possibility and they actually have a chance of knocking a true contender like the Spurs or the Warriors. Either way I think I would still place them with the Near-The-Tops. The reason is that I just don't trust D'Antoni coaching strategies with all out 3pt shooting, run & gun style of offense. It's all fine until the pace of game changes during the playoffs and teams start locking down on defense, slowing the pace down. Houston will suffer a lot from this since their defense is questionable at least.

Now the Cavs also have displayed some terrible defense during the regular season but we all know they are capable of getting it together during the playoffs (plus they play is usually more isolation focused and slow pace).

Highest spread I've ever seen against the Warriors, -11, because they are without all their all stars. Should be a confortable win for Spurs, but I think under points would offer more value because one team at least will lack attacking power

What was the last time that the warriors lost 3 games in a row?

They nearly did a few weeks I believe which they said it had never happened in over 300+ games they had played or something like that. But with this happening so close to each other now it is bound to happen this time or the next.

That is a risky bet to put any money against them but without any of their high scorers.
I watched their backup bench warmers play the last 5 minutes in one game they were up nearly 28 points and they couldn't shoot worth a dam and didn't hit any of their shots except the last two which were dunks.

I choose this game just coz of high odd. Spurs are favorite in this game, but with Durant GSW cant win. Also there are rumors that next players will not play this match:
Curry S. (Coach's decision)
Green D. (Coach's decision)  
Iguodala A. (Coach's decision)  
Thompson K. (Coach's decision)
And for Spurs:
Leonard K. (Head injury)   
Parker T. (Back injury)
