2024 NBA Season

[TravelMug]

I think the result would be the same not unless they bring a good combination of players to compete in the court. Coaching job is just guide for players to follow at the end of the day, it's all about the players decision inside the court and it all that matter. Let's see if Mike Miller can change the way the Knicks played this season.

But coaching changes most of the time bring a breath of fresh air to the players and could be inspired to play good basketball. As you have said, coaching is guide, but if players respond differently to a new coach then everything will change on their favour.

Or it Mike Miller will introduced new set plays, change players directions, be a good mentor, then it could bring new spark to New York Knicks.

I didn't expect that the Golden State Warriors still manage the road win against Chicago Bulls. Golden State Warriors should stop winning if they really want to get the no.1 Draft next year.

This

Being in the lowest rank in the league does not guarantee them the no.1 pick next season. Also their revenue and their legacy will be at risk if they intentionally loss their games.

and it is not good for the development of their young players to lose motivation at this point. Keeping their young rosters motivated and always playing at their best is more beneficial than gaining the first-round pick. They have a promising rookies this year. Think what would happen to them if they intentionally lose games.

Exactly. New coach can bring new directions if the chemistry of the players will blend accordingly. If there's new approach where players will be actively
listen and follow the coach's system then it will see within the outcome from each game that they'll compete. We will see if there's something new that
will happen to this franchise and how Mike Miller will take charge.

Seems there is no stopping on Dallas Mavericks, again they won dominating the Pelicans by 46 points, what happen to this team, why are they so good now? kidding.. I just want to show my appreciation on what they are currently doing now, it's almost unbelievable if I compare their past season to now and even if they have Porzingis but I never expected they will be this good.

It could be true.
There seems to be a problem with James Dolan. He want something great for the Knicks but yet he didn't inquire for stars at the last trade.
What he did was get young players and try to make something out of it.
That is BS. This is the reason why so many fans of the Knicks are getting restless. He is just not good with managing everything.
He already had good coaches, I bet Mike Miller will also be fired in just a year or two.

When I read the name Mike Miller, I thought it was Lebron's teammate back in Miami heat,(those good old days), but it was another person.
Well, I can say that Knicks really messed up big time, they aren't competing much as we can see on their previous games but today they only loss by 1 point which is a good start for a new coach, if this will continue, maybe the management will start to appreciate the coaching style of their new head coach.

Knicks has not been consistent on just messing around in the NBA, hopefully they'll be able to find a star player that could help the team to grow.
After Melo left, the team gets worse and I was really thinking they could acquire Durant as there was a rumor before.

Man, there are many changes in the current roster compared to the previous one. Also as you can see Luka Doncic doesn't have the shy type to show his skill. Remember that he is a ROY awardee and now what Mike and LeBron did when they are young Luka also did it today better.

Luka developed his talent and the rest of the team together with the managements are supporting him. He's making his versions of being a star
caliber player. After receiving the ROY he's confidence added more and with his new found squad the main focused is with him and the support
of his teammates always being felt, this is good for the entire team.

Yeah, Luka seems to be unstoppable.
I play basketball but this guy is really something else. His IQ is way too far against other players.
He never fails to amaze me whenever he is trying to attack the painted area.
That fast attack then slowing down is something that cannot be done so easily. It needs a lot of practice for that to happen.
46 point lead is really something else against a team who almost defeated the Lakers last week.

[Reid]

When I read the name Mike Miller, I thought it was Lebron's teammate back in Miami heat,(those good old days), but it was another person.

Me too, I actually researched it so bad and went too deep.
I thought Mike Miller of the heat got some bad sickness that he could age in just a little time.

Julius Randle is a good start. He is still young and can create good number and recently a double double against the Pacers although they lose with just a point there.
I already saw something good with him back when he was a rookie at Lakers. Just a little more polishing and he could have greater games to win.

[Oasisman]

So everyone is talking about how good Luka is. Well, he's not only good, he's so freakin great. High level basketball IQ, offensive and defensive awareness, can carry a team, and a can score in a high percentage efficiency.
One thing he's not good at right now. Guess what?
"Flopping" 
Yes, he isn't as good actor as LeBron, Harden or Manu. And, I hope he will not develop that kind of skill. It's not a good thing to watch in the NBA.
And, I'm not hating. Just spitting facts lol.

[SquallLeonhart]

Last nights games were insane, first Dallas versus Pelicans and than Sixers versus Cavs, those were some hugely different games, I mean different as in scores between the teams.

I don't know what could possible save pelicans, they got Zion from the pick and couldn't use him yet but even with Zion I am not entirely sure if they have everything they need there, they are definitely lacking something. Teams like Knicks, Cavs they are just too horrible, people think these teams are tanking but they are not, they are just so horrible that there is no way they could ever turn the ship around.

You could potentially make imaginary stuff how it could change but don't forget the human perspective of it all, it is not as easy as doing it on NBA2K and saying you have done it, when you put human psychology into calculation things change. Knicks can't be even tanking, they haven't had any decent players from the drafts and the only good one they had they traded away.

That also gave a great odds for bettors as in my sportsbook, there's an odds for a team to win 26+ points.
Actually I include this in my parlay, won in Sixers 26+ but was not able to bet on Dallas since I didn't think they can win that big against the Pelicans.

I don't know what could possible save pelicans, they got Zion from the pick and couldn't use him yet but even with Zion I am not entirely sure if they have everything they need there, they are definitely lacking something.

Let's just wait until he comes back, he is the number 1 overall pick so he is big, he wasn't contributing since he was injured but for sure there will be a boost in the team once he comes back.

No worries. They are paying whenever proved that they flopped each game.
Specially Harden. I bet he paid NBA a lot of dollars by now due to his exaggerated reactions whenever his beard is being hit even with just a strand of it. 

I don't really like that kind of action also. This is also the reason why the NBA is being called a soft game by now. They just let those actors do what they want. It ain't entertainment when it is basketball which we are watching.
Maybe he want to go Hollywood.

Wow! the game between the Mavericks vs the Kings was one of the most entertaining I watch today.

I like the mavericks to win but they got dominated early but they never give up and they made a big rally in the 4th quarter, I thought they'll win but they fall short, but still that's the kind of effort I like to see to a team, they never give up, they should bring that kind of mentality as they needed that in the playoffs once they are lucky to get it.

It was an escape win for the Kings. They played good defense on Luka on the drive and made him missed. And then a well set play for an easy score.

At least an overtime though, and yes they didn't give up in the fourth but they just fell short.

Nemanja Bjelica - 30 points for the Kings, impressive specially his outside three's.

Nemanja Bjelica is a good 3 point shooter and he showed this skills in this game.
Another loss by the Mavericks who are actually a road warriors but struggling to win at home.

Last time they loss against a weaker team was against the NY Knicks, now on the Kings.

And this is the reason why bets are getting difficult to predict.
Some of the teams just wins the game even with stronger opponents like this one.

Bjelica and Hield really did a great job giving an offensive share for the Kings while Bogdanovic is having problems shooting the ball.
On the hand, Luka still made some good numbers and so does Tim Hardaway.
Porzingis though played 37 minutes and still got 13 points. Looking forward into seeing more minutes for this guy for the next games.
Looks like his health is getting better.

It's a single loss after a winning streak and I expect them to start winning again.
Sad only that they can't entertain the crowd at home, I mean that they could compete pretty well and win, this one no doubt that they compete well since they didn't gave up, they rally but just fell short, but regardless of the effort shown, what's important is a win.

Dallas is still in good standing so there is nothing to panic though, I just wish they'll win more at home than on the road as it would be funny if they'll end the regular season entering the playoffs with a home court advantage but they can't keep that as their advantage.

In today's match where Lakers defeated Timberwolves, Anthony Davis played really well by scoring 50 points! besides that, I also won bet 2x in a row when lakers vs blazers and today with timberwolves with the same type of bet!  Lol
