2024 NBA Season

[Natalim]

I've noticed in general, that most speculations are based on that few games played by each team.

Example:
Clipper defeats Lakers - Clippers is more dominant and likely to be a champ this season.
Warriors with a 0-2 start - Warriors are now done.
Brooklyn Nets - Kyrie Irving can't carry the whole team (even though their 2 losses is just behind by 1, almost a 3-0 good start)

Unfortunately that's how people judge and that is the basis of the odds marker to change the odds a bit for the future NBA champion.
I am not sure if that line is still available until now but as long as its still up, there will be a continues changes especially if the team are performing beyond expectation.

You nailed it brother. Most of the speculators are like that and base the finals speculation on the last and current performance of a team. It isn't enough if that's the only basis and the league is still on its way far from the play offs. But we can't blame the others for being like that, honestly I'm also like that whenever I've watched a great performance of a team that I like and even those teams that I don't like. As long as the performance is impressive.

Well, I don't like the Pelicans because of Lonzo Ball. This kid doesn't have the will to win and he is over hyped by his father and they just said after he left the Lakers that they won't win another championship. Look at now, it's karma for the Ball family and he will never win a championship in his career.

Too much hate for Lonzo because of his father. But to be fair with Lonzo, he is improving even under tremendous pressure because of all the trash talk and hype created by his father. 

That's the best way to retaliate against all the critics made by his father since the very beginning of his career. It would be better for his father to shut up and let his son's game do the talking.
Pelicans is a team to beat in the future, they're still so young and couldn't figure how to win this year. If this team sticks around in the next 3-5 years, I bet this will be a team of an allstar.

Brooklyn Nets - Kyrie Irving can't carry the whole team (even though their 2 losses is just behind by 1, almost a 3-0 good start)

If only Irving nailed buzzer-beater against Timberwolves (he slipped) and almost a win against Grizzlies (they did a buzzer-beater), they should be at 3-0 now and the NBA critics will now say, IRVING IS REALLY GOOD EVEN WITHOUT DURANT. But unfortunately, their team's effort looks like just a waste to others because of that 2 lose and now conclude that Irving can't carry the team. I think those people didn't watch the whole game and just looking at the result.

I reckon another test for the beginning of the season for the Clippers is their game on friday versus the San Antonio Spurs. It might be a harder game than the Lakers hehehe. 

Beverly should not steal Kawhi's role and let Kawhi lead hehe.

You can't really expect Kyrie to carry the Nets. He's scoring 50 points dude. The guy's an exceptional player and there will be points in the game where he can make all the difference. The past two games ended up with the brakes not going their way. As you've said, they could've easily gone 3-0 and that's even without KD. One player can only do so much for his team you know.

Daang Nuggets! They are losing big time on Mavs on their home court. I think I will start to forget my bet for them even though they still have time.

 I never thought that they will choke on this game. My high hopes turn into disappointment.

I was also disappointed because I bet on them to win at -6 but that's the life of a gambler, we don't know if our bet will hit and cover.
They have been doing well in the 1st 3 quarter but Mavericks rally in the 4th quarter while only allowing the Nuggets to score 18 points, their lowest in 4 quarters. In this game, Luka Doncic and Kristaps Porzingis struggles but they got the full support from their teammates which is 9 of the Dallas players scored a double digit in this win.

Lol.
Dallas is one strong team now.
It wont be the same bets as last year. 
Although the chemistry of the Nuggets is still looking good, Doncic and KP are also working their skills to be improved.
It is difficult now to predict who will win.

But the players are still heating up.
One example is the GSW who just made a win against the young New Orleans Pelicans.
Glad to see Steph boosting his young team mates after the win.

Dallas has a lot of younger players but they have a lot of smart players, I think if they will continue to show that they've shown lately, they might be able to reach in the playoffs this season. It's unexpected but its possible, they are not just relying on their star players like Luka and Porzingis, they have a lot of players that are ready to step up when their star players are struggling.

Yeah. Nuggets choke in the 4th quarter. We have the same bet -6 nuggets. I really think about betting on Mavs +6 last night but my hopes for solid nuggets team kicks in then tempted my mind to all-in to them.
How much you lose dude? Mine was 0.01BTC, Supposedly a parlay to lakers match with grizzlies. But I think even lakers will lose today. What bad luck on sports betting this season. First on Clippers vs Lakers lose and then
today Nuggets lose. 0-2 so far.

You could have won your parlay if you bet on the Dallas as the Lakers are dominating the Memphis so far.
It was a close first half but Lakers has a good run in the 3rd quarter to have a comfortable lead going to the 4th quarter.

Lakers are just -11.5 and I think they will cover that spread easily here.

Beverly is Kahwi's mouthpiece 
Let him talk since he is also one of the senior players there.

The game against the Spurs is an interesting one. I give the edge to the Clippers but the Spurs may have an added motivation to beat a Kahwi led team.

Davis was a beast tonight, Lakers defeated the Grizzlies by 29 points and Davis has a big contribution.
He has, 40 points and 20 rebounds which shows how effective he is as a big man.
This is what the Lakers needs, aside from Lebron, there's Davis which is very dominant in the inside.

Yep, Davis was beast . Piece of trivia:he is the first member of Lakers that managed to score 40 points while having 20 rebounds since Shaq back in 2003, and first ever in the history of NBA that managed to do that in 30 minutes.

I watched Mavericks vs Nuggets last night, i didn't expect Mavericks to win this one, especially considering that both Porzingis and Doncic were not good, but their bench scored like 50-60 points, and that made a difference.

That's what Lebron was saying before the season starts, he wants Davis to be the focus on the offensive end. I guess Lebron saw a big potential from Davis to take over offensively, while he himself has the opportunity to bring out the best of him being in the point guard position.
I just hope this season will be a better season than the last season that has a lot of superstars who got injured.

Yeah. I will temporary avoid sports betting at this early stage of the season. I will start to analyze again all team performance and teamwork. I'm currently betting with just pure luck and zero analysis.
The matchmaker is really good at creating odds for each bet. I will try to create my own sports betting bet stats once I come back again after my analysis. I will not gonna give up all my loses easily.

Lakers surely massacre Memphis, I knew it before the game start. There is no player in Memphis that can defend Davis or LBJ one on one and davis is very strong on isolation.

Exactly, this is what he is hire for, Lebron really knows how Davis operate and I'm sure AD has a eye opener specially when they lost to the Clippers in their first game, wherein he was checked and they play good defense on him.

So now he suddenly exploded and show that he is still the same Davis, dominant center who can score and snatch rebounds, very good performance from him.

That's the beauty of teamworks, Dallas develop unity and good chemistry between players. Not just the two man game but the whole
team inside the court are moving to find its role and make a good impact to help the whole team.

Luka and Porzingris have a good chemistry and they are influencing everyone to enjoy.

Well he is a beast even before he joined the Lakers but lucky for him to have that record in a Lakers uniform. Yes it's an unusual stat for a player but he could not do it alone. Of course he is a receiver from a good point guard which can see him running to the rim and get the ball for a point.
