2024 NBA Season

[bhadz]

LeBron James was ejected for the first time in his lengthy career(1082 matches in Regular season and 1299 also considering the playoffs) after arguing a no-call late in the third quarter against Miami!

Cleveland has, however, easily won against Miami 108-97 (maximum +34), with 38 points for K.Love.
For Cleveland is the 9th consecutive win, now the second place is very close

Atleast they still won the game. Lebron has experienced to be ejected now I wonder if news will be putting his thought about being ejected or if there will be some man to man interview on what he really felt when he was ejected. If Phoenix Suns will win against Pistons then Cavs will take the number 2 spot of standings.

NBA execs believe 76ers will try to sign LeBron

So they want a ticket too in grabbing LeBron James once he hit free agency?

It's not a big news to me but Im surprised that 76ers can stake big money for this. Why just now? Why didn't risk some before their key players landed on their franchise. With their salary cap size they can acquired big names, not one but even 3. Preparation for much big? I don't think so. They must take note tha LeBron James is not all about money. He have his own set of criterias on where he like to be landed. Goodluck 76ers in competing to others.

Wouldn't he be 34 or 35 y/o by that time already? Even if he's playing on a star-level this season there's no guarantee he can still beat father time in the next seasons. Pretty much a bad investment IMO, unless they'd like a veteran teaching their young stars.

Pelicans -5.5 vs Timberwolves is my prediction/bet for today. Timberwolves are on a back to back match tonight and I looked back at one of their back to back matches the result was both a loss. Twolves have beaten the Pelicans few weeks back but that wasn't b2b they had a 2 day rest before facing them. The Pelicans are coming off from a loss and had a 3-4 days worth of rest.

Edit : Pelicans are so bad. Sorry for those who tailed.

Good luck mate, it seems like the the Pelicans were dominated in the 2nd and 3rd quarter, I hope they will come back strong in the fourth quarter and win this game. If ever they will win, I think it's hard for them to cover the spread since they are down with double digits already, but still let's not lose hope, as long as there's still time, we have a chance to cover.

Another win for Houston I love watching how this team played, a lots of passes and three points basket, just showing how competitive they are inside and outside the paints, if they will continue succeeding I think they can go back to the next stage easily, I'll be going to spare some btc for them though its really a tough competition inside the west side but let see how cp3 and the beardman will carry the team.

It's a sureshot that the rockets  will move to the playoffs and probably deep into it as well. It's incredible ti watch and it's like watching international plays with how well they distribute the ball and the accuracy of their outside shots. Cp3 been jelling well with harden and the rest of the rockets which, unfortunately, can't be said with the underperforming super team okc.

Crazy game for the Lakers, they almost win the game against the Warriors if the game did not went to OT.
Curry was awful tonight, he did not shoot very well during the regulation but as an MVP, he took over in the OT by making back to back 3 point baskets.
Congratulations to the Lakers, they improved so much, especially Ingram.

I think there are so many lost their bets here i didn't expect lakers almost win the game lucky day for warriors that ingram shot missed.

Rest is one of the factors in who will win the game or even in the odds but the Minnesota Timberwolves have proven that they are a better team. Also one of the factors I see that affected the game is Anthony Davis being ejected in the earlier half of the game really affected the Pelicans in a major way. And have you notice the performance of Tyus Jones lately? It feels like they don't even need Jeff Teague at all. Luckily Tyus Jones is benefiting from the injury of Jeff Teague and he is showing that he can be a starter for the team.

I am one of the losers, all in all I lose 33 mbtc in this game with my two bets, one is the pre-game ( Golden State Warriors -14.5 ) and the other one is a live bet (Golden State Warriors -7.5) which I bet 23 mbtc hoping they will cover the spread which the game was close.
They have a good run but the lakers fought back taking this game to OT, my hope was alive when curry making shots but not enough to win my spread.

Better luck next time for me, sad gambling day for me now.

It is true that Tyus Jones is showing that he can be a starter but he is incomparable to Jeff Teague, I mean the guy is an eastern conference all star, while Tyus Jones is showing half the efficiency needed to be one. I have nothing against Tyus Jones but the Minnesota Timberwolves really need Teague in order to be a contender. It is really good that Tyus Jones is showing production but at the starting position Jeff Teague deserves the spot plus we are paying him millions of bucks to be so.

Well even with all the hate and puns thrown at this team and lonzo, they're growing to be a pretty good team now. Give it a season or two more and with the core kept intact, these young guys are serious playoff contenders

I also didn't expect that CP3 would really blend well with how D'Antoni manages the plays. Anyhow, it's better since Harden can play more of a shooting guard and leave part of ball distribution to CP3, unlike last year when he completely took over the point guard role.

CP3 fits perfectly on D'Antoni kind of play. Remember how Steve Nash and the Phoenix Sun works wonders during D'Antoni's year there as a coach. He is applying the same principle with CP3 this time with the Rockets. And yes, last year, Harden was doing too much which may cause them to not advance in the playoff and lost to San Antonio Spurs. But with Paul distributing the ball, a lot of work has been offloaded from the shoulders of Harden that's why Paul is a perfect blend to Houston. I think he is the missing pieces to get this team to the next level. And Harden has mature as well, he is willing to share the load with Paul, making this team very dangerous.

The way Lebron James is playing, Im disregarding his age. Anyways, not sure about the Sixers plan and what they are thinking. There are lots of good players around on which they can get for a price of Lebron James. But at the end of the day, like I said, I doubt LeBron will be interested to that offer as he is not the type of player who will be bait for a money. He needs a good teammate too on which Embiid and Simmons of the Sixers isn't enough. Not clear on this so maybe we can see some updates next year once Lebron hits free agency. What Im seeing here is, Lebron will stay for Cavaliers this season.

On other events recently, what you guys think if Anthony Davis weren't able to stopped by his teammates towards the referree that ejected him?

He is beast mode that time but I think he's not out of his mind to give that ref a little blow. :p

Better his teammates forced to stopped him because ejection is not enough if he get closed because Im sure he will throw lots of trashtalk to that ref that will result for much worst penalty which is suspension for disrespecting officials + big fine worth $$$$$. Refs today are being sensitive. That is the first time I saw the silent Davis goes into beast mode to the refs and you know it's unusual to see that hot headed DeMarcus Cousins became cool that time.

Of the 3 games, I am more interested with the Boston Celtics and the Philadelphia 76ers, in this spot where the Celtics recently lose to the Detroit Pistons, I will just take them -9 or I would go with the Sixers moneyline. Hard to resist this line for the public as it seems like a gift since the sixers are player well this season.

Final Score is 108 - 97 Boston Celtics.

Sixers failed to cover the handicap and obviously the Moneyline. You see it's really a big deal when Embiid is not on the floor. Although not an assurance that they will dominate Celtics, it's a good advantage if they can control mostly the boards.


Recently I posted about the horrible injury of Blake Griffin. Yesterday Kristap Porzingis suffered an ankle injury and just by watching the video, it's really an OUCH. But latest examination says it's negative. Can't believe because that was really a folded ankle. Ouch. And now the recent one, Nikola Jokic. Ankle injuries are present nowadays at NBA.

There are a lot of injuries that is happening now, maybe they are getting more physical now.
Is this a result of weak teams who just improve this season? Kristap Porzingis is just starting to be popular, after Melo, he took over
and in fact they have a good record so far, I hope he can stay healthy the rest of the season.
