2024 NBA Season

[btc_angela]

I'll still go for Los Lakers for this time. They have good coaching and young talent right now. They also need to win every game for the fans like me. LOL A Lakers fans since birth. Lakers will make playoffs this season but not NBA Finals; Opinions? Haha

Edit: If Damian Lillard didn't hit that game winner shoot Lakers will win in over time!

Lakers phasing right now is good and just needs little adjustment. Although it's a loss, overall the game is good.

Lonzo Ball just needs to be aggressive just like what his coach says. He is unselfish yes, but sometimes he needs to penetrate on defense. So unusual that being part of the first squad, he doesn't have any points to their 100 points game against the Portland. He needs to pressure himself always so that he will be stick to a goal that he needs to score no matter what.

He is a humble player and he understand he is still a rokie and he needs to trust his teammates more as he needs to learn more.
The game is really good because it's a high scoring game but it's a close one, they lead in the game but they lack the power to close out game with a win.

As Shaquille O'neal said:'' You can't play 29 minutes, be a Laker, and not score"

That Ball guy is simply overrated. Barkley on his critism that the guy only is functional from the left side seems on point actually. He doesn't shoot much when he's on the other wing.

Yeah, and he is slowly realizing that he is not nearly as good as his father wants him to be.

I also thought that Lonzo is overrated guys. His father just hype his son's ability but there's no special about that kid. Maybe is just above average but I don't see things that people are saying about him. Although he is still young, this is the big boys league. And now criticism has been floating here and there, specially Barkley who is right on point as you have said. Let see how the kid response, he needs a lot of changes or improvement to stay with the big boys now.

Come on, give the kid a break man. His dad's blabbering really placed the kid in such a bad light. A bit skinny for the nba but give or take a few more.years, this.kids going to be a top notch guard. Just wish his dad would just shut up.

This is by for the most satisfying win for the Minnesota Timberwolves this regular season. Against the Dallas Mavericks they have showed that they can have a comfortable win without any lead changes, all the previous wins are all close calls. Also Jimmy Butlers showed that he is a captain of the team and he really didn't show that he wants to stuff his stats by showing us an un-selfish basketball, KAT bounced back big today with an awful game against the Pelicans.

silently making their strength this team is really making its way to be more competitive among the teams inside NBA with butler they really find
a great leader inside, so if wiggins is not playing well with KAT butler can be provide some lift and make some good night.

Hopefully the team will stay healthy already Jimmy Butler has missed a lot of games due to illness the good thing is it is nothing that serious. Currently the Minnesota Timberwolves is sitting 3rd in the Western Standings which the Houston Rockets and Golden State Warriors are sitting 1st and 2nd respectively but the only reason they are leading because they are ahead of 1 game from the Wolves which their record both holds 7-3 while the Timberwolves have is 6-3.

Yes, Minesota is looking very good this season. Don't be suprised if they finish in top 5.

They need to be consistent in order to say at the top, it was Jimmy Butler who help them to be at the current spot now so I hope they'll protect that and continue to work hard in order to achieve the success they are looking. This team is compose of young talented teams and veterans can help to mentor them.

I'm with you mate. I still think that the kid can improved, but I have to agree that his dad has hype him so much that every move of his son is being criticized now. Its his dad fault so say the least. As of now, I still think that he is over rated unless he makes several changes along the way that will make my decision shift to the other side. Maybe in 2-3 years we might see improvement and I will be the first one to tell that this kid has real talent, but not for now.

Another satisfying game given by the Minnesota Timberwolves today, they have now won 5 straight games which they haven't done for a long time now. The starters of the team showed that they can win comfortably, I really think that the fans are not used to seeing them win like this as the crowed today is not as noisy as when they are winning in close games. Looking at the performance individually I think Gorgui Dieng showed the most out of his time scoring 15 points and grabbing 11 rebounds in just 18 minutes of game play.

NBA today is not that predictable since there are a lot of great teams out there. The league is not controlled by a few superteams anymore. There are underdog teams like Detroit, Timberwolves, Bucks, Boston, Lakers, etc. that can surprisingly keep up with superteams like GSW, OKC, SAS and CLE. However, if I were to bet to which team will be the champion, I think it would be San Antonio Spurs because of their solid and consistent gameplan. They know what to do even without their starters. It seems like all of them can be reliable by the coach.

They have a good reserves now which makes them a very dangerous team, if you look at the scoring of the Minny, you can tell everyone know their role and that is why they are having this success now, they are good already but they just lack confidence last season and I think they have it now.

[CarlesPuyol]

Poor Cleveland lost at home to one of the weakest teams in this season - Atlanta Hawks.   I dont think their chemistry work despite they have a very good players.  Can they back on track or this season is gone for them?

I don't think that lacking confidence is the issue here. When you look at the team 3 out of 5 starters are newly signed veteran players that has experience with the playoffs 2 of which are have been all-star players. The two young core of the team which is Wiggins and Towns both are confident with their game as they can contribute to the floor on their respective positions. What they need is to glue in their chemistry as they are a brand new team overall in order to be contenders to the championship.

It's still early and there are more things that will happen in the future, this team is very hungry to be in playoffs and they feel now is their last chance. They have won many games in the last season but they were not able to continue what they started because they lack dept which they have now.
Best big man I guess is Towns because he can do damage in the floor as he is also a good shooter, I'll bet for this team to be in playoffs.

Poor Cleveland lost at home to one of the weakest teams in this season - Atlanta Hawks.   I dont think their chemistry work despite they have a very good players.  Can they back on track or this season is gone for them?

I don't know what going on in their team, the Cavalier made it close yet so far, to be honest that was painful to watch. JR smith is really averaging 3 points a game, and he's Cavalierss starting shooting guard, what kind of performance was that. There's no energy in their defense. I hope after a 1 - 2 months they will find their rhythm with each other.


Cavaliers vs Hawks
FINAL (117-115)

LeBron James: 26 points, 13 assists, 5 rebounds, 2 blocks,
Dwyane Wade: 25 points, 11 rebounds , 6 assists, 1 block
Kyle Korver: 23 points, 5 rebounds, 1 block

 I think it's early days yet but those golden days of theirs seems to be gradually dwindling away  and reality check they need to tuneup the team somehow else they will be no match for golden states even if they ever make it to the finals this term.

What a very close game and Dwayne Wade this showcased himself but that's not enough as these poor guys lost to their home court. I can feel the pain every time watching a team losses with their opponents at their very own comfort. Too bad for them with the start of the season and this type of games are alarming since the beginning is already over and this is the real deal in the middle of the league.

They will eventually figure out how to be consistent, the only problem is the chemistry and once it's sorted out, the cavaliers will win every game.
Now that they have more loses they will surely analyze their mistakes and improve it the following games but for me as a bettor I would still not gonna bet on the cavaliers until such time I will see them back to the winning track again.

I guess the chemistry is the big problem of them now and it's between Wade and with other teammates but not with Lebron. It will be built later on so still they are on the process of still getting with each other or they are truly having difficulty with this season? It's a wake up call for a team when they are losing consecutively or if not they have higher percentage of lose rather than winning.

The missing link is the main point guard.

Yes, Isaiah Thomas must be the playmaker. Lebron James can adapt the position, no doubt about that since he entered the league, but doing that always will just give Lebron another tasks instead of focusing on his natural position where he can get more productions.

The progress for IT is closed to recovery now but just for sure, Cavaliers will not gamble his health just to save their record. Also, even they will still experienced lots of losses in their upcoming games, they just need to secure playoffs spot even at 8th position although I don't think that will happened. Cavaliers is different when playing at playoffs so even they will have a bad record today, it will be back 0-0 once playoffs started.
