2024 NBA Season

[Baofeng]

Interesting matchup for today's game between Golden State Warrior vs Oklahoma City Thunder (OKC Homecourt advantage). I'll still go for Golden State Warriors this time since Warriors defeated the Rockets from their last game.

You, who do you think will win this match?

My bet is on Warriors this time even I'm not a fan of them but in regards with past outcomes we can already presume on whose the winner. 

Warriors seem to be dominating now, though it's played on the KYC court but warriors just shooting well especially in the 1st quarter where they score 41 points. This could be another victory for the warriors if the OKC will not rally in the 2nd half, it's very dangerous for any opponent if warriors are shooting very well.

Up by 20 points now and still doing well, GSW showing the old ways they are been lifted by splash brothers and the rest really doing well rotated,
big chance for those who bets for as GSW might win this with big leads, lets see if how George and Westbrook will adjust and try to win this making
a big comeback with less than 15 mins left in this game.

OKC has no answer, again the Splash brother are very well tonight.
Thompson already have 20+ points while Curry with 30+ and we are just at the start of the 4th quarter, more scores to come for these two.

Westbrook stats is hilarious, 1-15 shooting so far.  - No triple double tonight or even double double.

88-110 for the Golden State Warriors, 33 and 23 respectively for Curry and Thompson. Westbrook is really struggling specially is shooting percentage went down hard in the last two games. Looks like GSW is turning the heat in this regular games and showing everyone who is the team to beat again.

Splash brothers handle the OKC without Durant, that's how good they are and that's how underrated Thompson is, he needs to be in other team to proved his worth and to get a max salary. This Warriors won't be a super team without Thompson IMO.

Westbrook was more consistent on rebounds and assists, this guy is stat pudding shows his real colors in this game.
PG is the real MVP on the team, if he shared the ball well, they could have match the warriors and even if they loss but not this large margin.

Klay Thompson has a serious nuclear thing going on. Dude really plays like nobody else when he gets hot, I saw on reddit a stat about how if he makes 5 or 6 shots in a game there is a possibility his 7th shot would be %70+ chance to go in. Think about it a dude who shoots threes with above 70%+ chance to go in during some time of the game.

Obviously, they know about it and they just pass the ball to him if he is hot, when he is hot he is better than anyone I have ever seen. That is how he has multiple games under 10 points but a game where he scored 37 points in a quarter as well, he is normally a good player but not a superstar like Durant, Lebron and what not but when he gets hot he is a better scorer than all of them combined if you ask me. Curry is of course curry like always, no need to say anything about him.

Right, when Klay is really hot, he is unstoppable, maybe just a good pick and he will just shot the ball in any range.

Well they have been playing for so long that they really know when is someone really hot. To be fair, not just for Klay but every time has the tendency to give the ball to their hottest player and make the shot.

Yeah I noticed this to in the last two games they played. Maybe it was was the effect of what he said to the heckler and his wife after not hearing what they said correctly and then responding in a violent fashion.
He had to pay a rather large fine and since then his play has been effected.

Westbrook has never been a consistent shooter but it's his worst performance I guess.
They are only good when they play with an average team but they got exposed when they play a good team.

As the playoff is coming it's necessary for westbrook to evaluate things as he cannot do this during the playoffs, he needs to play smarter for his team and not for his own record.

I think he becomes underrated during the arrival of KD in the bay. The media focused too much on Curry and KD, thus Klay recieved less attention than he supposed to have. Remember, they are a 73-9 team without KD and Klay has already proved his worth, and I agree that Klay needs to join another team so people would recognize whos one of the most important piece with the Warriors team.

Even before KD, Klay is still underrated.
For me, it's because he is not athletic as Durant or like Curry where it's fun to watch with his handles.

Media don't focus too much on the stats and how accurate a player is, they focus on a player where they believe has a lot of fans
as that will make people more interested. I can still remember how many times Klay save them during the last playoffs.

Well, I also have to agree with you, but the way I see them (Splash bros) before KD is terrific. I have to agree because of the fact that people always recognize those athletic explosive, and entertaining players. Klay is like the 2013-2014 Spurs team, boring to watch but playing smart. Actually, its not really boring if youre a true NBA fan, you'll be amazed instead.

Absolutely right!

Klay is not that underrated as what you have thought he is. It's just that KD and Curry has the ball all the time and Klay is just a spot up shooter. In my opinion Klay lives up to the shadow of these two superstars yet he can't be a legit superstar if he moves out off the warriors team.

Respect for Klay, can't forget that time when he's able to brought up the team. I don't mind medias and other fans that's belittling him, Klay for me is still one of the assets that Golden State Warrior has.

It's just that they have superstars on the team and the attention that should be on him, are being thrown to KD and Curry. At the end of the day, it's still about their team as one. Klay plays well and I'm sure that he doesn't mind if the attention that the other two has isn't the same as him.

lol! Lecry got blocked! No wonder why the Lakers will miss the playoffs this year...Lecry cannot make his team win and he is the main problem of the Lakers.

Yeah!!!
Totally the ace player of GSW. I dont why he is so underrated. He can do shots off balance. He can penetrate the paint and also dunk the ball if given such a good space.

Curry is almost like the wingman now.
If they will get another championship game then he might become the next MVP if he keeps on working like this.

I think I have said that here most of the time. Without Klay the spacing of GSW looks so narrow. They cannot move well if Klay cannot pull another player outside.

Klay do accept his current condition when it comes on gaining popularity which is lesser compared on that 2.Good thing that he got used to it but im sure that
inside his mind he do really know his worth on the entire team.Try to look on how warriors would perform on all of their game if Klay isnt there.

Not an obvious LBJ hater.

There are many problems in the team right now and indeed Lecry is one of them. However, we should not blame only him for this mess in the Lakers team. LeBron James should be blamed as well because he is also part of it. He should be trying to unite the team as he has a strong influence to the players because he is the best player in the NBA.

NEW YORK – Oklahoma City Thunder guard Russell Westbrook has been fined $25,000 for directing profanity and threatening language to a fan, it was announced today by Kiki VanDeWeghe, Executive Vice President, Basketball Operations.  The Utah Jazz previously announced that the individual involved in the incident with Westbrook has been permanently banned from Vivint Smart Home Arena.

The incident occurred during the Thunder’s 98-89 road victory over the Utah Jazz on March 11

It's not that huge amount though, it's just peanuts for them. But I think it has really impacted Westbrook as you are right that in the last two games, his shooting is really horrendous. Paul George is doing his thing, but he also needs support specially coming from Westbrook.

lol! Lecry got blocked! No wonder why the Lakers will miss the playoffs this year...Lecry cannot make his team win and he is the main problem of the Lakers.

We should really move forward with the Lebron drama. Lakers are not making the playoffs, and Lebron streaks is also over. We are getting into the playoffs now, there are a lot of battling for the next 4-8 spot, it will be interesting who's who on this year playoffs.

He's just always there ready to explode when the warriors needed him, Thompson as quite as it is but he's just like scootie when MJ needs lift
he's always have him at his back, never to let the team down when MJ struggles, same alike when Curry or Durant is not productive they will
find help within Thompson's shoulders.

For basketball Fans Thompson already created his own superiority, he's still young and a lots of potentials from this sports.

Lol. Well it seems that with the way the lakers are heading right now, every small detail gets noticed. But who wouldn't. There were a lot of expectations with this team when lebron got in and they got booted out of playoff contention. Man the haters are having a festival everywhere 😂

Well, what I love to see at facebook is the meme of LeBron James Lakers' on how they can be at east. Hahah, it's so funny that I can't move on from that thing. Yes they got booted out from playoffs this season but, LeBron James is still LeBron James. This lost will be taken as a hunger for wins next season. Watch out.

[harizen]

There were a lot of expectations with this team when lebron got in...

That's the problem to most people, they expect something. LeBron James is no doubt a great player but how come a team with no playoffs appearance for several years will make it to the top just because of LeBron. I do expect that they can reach the playoffs but not to the point they will reached the finals.

There are lots of big walls on the West and thinking Lakers will go to the finals is like betting on a odds of @10 above. Young cores given a chance to show what they have got during LeBrons disappearance but turned out to be failed. How come we can only blame this losses to LeBron if those young cores are in control during his absence. And besides this losing streak will give them chances for top 1-5 next draft pick.
