2024 NBA Season

[chaser15]

I hope it doesn't happen again because I almost had a heart attack watching it.

Overreacting lol.

But seriously, losing is just fine but since the Clippers is considered as number 2 in the West and even others say it's because Kawhi Leonard is not there, it should be a close game or maybe around down to 10-15 lead.

Allowing Mavericks to score 77 in just the first half is crazy I even assume that there will be no other low teams that won't be down at 50 points in just a first half.

Don't worry, he will be back soon, kind of injury needs a little time to rest to heal but it's not that serious though.

8 stitches is a long laceration and that even more difficult because it happen inside his mouth. Injuries like are difficult to heal due to the fact that healing process takes time if it is inside the body of the injured person unlike the scratches or lacerations outside or exposed from the body. Meaning that Leonard will going to miss some games for this season but probably it takes a month or two to heal the injuries and that possibly too will have a great impact on their team especially to gather winning records.

He needed that rest to heal this laceration. Not good start for him.

But it's accident and even how hard players tried to avoid such kind of things, it's uncontrollable. Kawhai will miss some games since
this stitches is very prone of hitting again and damage more. The whole squad needs to step up and avoid experiencing the same result
against Dallas.

I think we need to consider that something happened in the locker room after what happened to Leonard and they can't concentrate to play. If you look at how they played yesterday you won't consider them a competitive team an unsynchronized team like that won't get a chance to get into the NBA playoffs. they really need Kawhi as soon as possible.

I think if the other team is hot , or in the zone, no one can stop them, even when the GSW make history they still lose to the Cavs with 3-1 advantage
what I mean to say is that you can't predict what is going to happen in a ball game, what can we do if they are on fire and the other team's defense can't handle it, it's still early, and its just one game

Logically right, no one can dictate the tempo of the game.

Once the team start feeling hot and luck back them up the team even an underdog will able to beat the heavy favorite. it's tough to single this game out, but it's the adjustment is what important for clippers. Kawhai should be replaced by role players and good leadership of PG. Trust one another and play much harder.

Who watched the Lakers vs Portland TrailBlazers? Nice game, right..

I thought Lakers would dominate because they are in complete line up, AD is back and they came from a big win but Blazers really played well, distribute the ball well and everyone is contributing.

This is a healthy Portland TrailBlazers is what we are going to see in this season.

Nurkic is back and they have Kanter back in the line up, also, they have a new contributor in the name of Gary Trent Jr., who can produce points when needed, and in this game, he was the top scorer with 28 points and shooting 7-11 in 3 point area, unbelievable.

Who watched the Lakers vs Portland TrailBlazers? Nice game, right..

I watched the highlights of the game only, yes, TrailBlazers are really playing well and as usual Lillard and Mcculum are doing their thing but they added some scorer which is Trent Jr. Actually I already notice his good performance during the bubble, but this time it's a whole season, so we will see more of him.

Meanwhile, Rockets had their 2nd loss without Wall and Cousins, Harden still lead the team, but again they loss against  the Denver Nuggets.

[Reid]

The Mavs vs Clippers today sets a new record in the NBA. A 50 point deficit in the halftime. Rare to see such lead. It's like a rookie mode in NBA 2k.
I don't know If I can still trust this team's odds or nah.

LOL. 
They should at least put it to All-Star mode. That way we might be a little entertained.

Listen to him : Paul George: Clippers' 51-Point Loss to Mavericks Is 'Not That Big of a Deal'

The hell is that.
How could it not be a big of a deal.
It's one way to prove they are not a team that leans over Kawhi.
Also, it's the start of the season which is important to build something with fans.
1 person here is already proof that fans will doubt them now.

I don't know If I can still trust this team's odds or nah.

I was really shocked when I saw the first half score of LA Clippers-Dallas Mavericks game (27-77). I really can't believe how the hell the first half ended like that. The result of the match had not too much difference too. Dallas won 124-73. I am curious about whether this game was rigged or not.  

Last year Mavs lost a game when they were wining for 30 points. So when with 50 points difference at halftime Mavs fans were scared. But team plays different game this year. Less depend on offence and 3 point shoot and make much less turnovers. And more depend on defence. So losing games when they win for 30 points will be much harder as last year.

I'm sure they weren't scared that they would lose this game.  It would take 2 record half by both teams for them to lose.  The chances of losing that game after halftime was probably nil. 

[gadado]

I am still amazed at that game that was played last. That turned out to be a record by winning more than 50 points in the NBA. and it wasn't that they were amateurs against pros.

Denver Nuggets played a home game against Houston Rockets last night. I think that the match was quite enjoyable. Nuggets beat Rockets 124-111. On Nuggets side, Jokic was really awesome. He made a triple-double (19 points, 12 rebounds, 18 assists). On Rockets side, Harden was really good. He got 34 points, 6 rebounds and 8 assists.

[darewaller]

PG has always been the type of guy who would defend the situation no matter how much people mock or laugh at him. When he got that famous shot by Dame shot over him, he said that was a bad shot and he would give him that each time, like literally said Dame took a bad shot at the buzzer beater when in reality OKC lost and PG couldn't guard him. When Clippers played a lot worse and lost to Denver last year on playoffs, he talked about there was no problems and it was just luck that made them lose and they will win it this year.

Now they lose with 50+ points and have that much point difference at the half and PG says it is not a big deal. Dude is basically programmed to keep saying he will always say something to defend all the bad things his teams done and would never accept blame and say "this was bad, it is on me, I will try to fix it and make sure it never happens again", like a mature person.

Really hard for them to be beaten up on that situation yet you can see the consistency of their plays which do keep the gap maintained and didnt able to catch up.
Its a bit understandable knowing that one of their core players didnt able to play due to injury but this game was totally overwhelmed.
We are just starting though and there would be still lots of adjustments to be done.

Yeah its one game.  Wouldnt be surprised if Dallas loses next game.  Thats typical in the NBA, every night is different.

I feel bad for Ja Morant, he started season really good. Dropped 44 against Spurs and became the youngest player to reach that point. I hope he can recover fast and come back as soon as possible. X-Rays tell no fracture but we'll see his condition from MRI results tomorrow.

Memphis still got the win against Nets. They don't look strong without both Durant and Irving.

This is really part of the risk, let's just hope he is okay though, I was looking at his report now and it's the latest update from https://www.rotoworld.com/basketball/nba/player/51038/ja-morant.

Ja Morant has been diagnosed with a Grade 2 left ankle sprain and he's expected to miss the next 3-5 weeks of action.

Lots of games will be miss by him, but let's hope he is okay so he can still come back strong.
Memphis are doing good with him, in this games without him, I think the team will struggle, so let's hope for his speedy recovery.

Wow what a bad luck hope this gonna be the last he'll get this because sometimes a couple of injuries that do happen to a player the more the career got to submerged. Well, I'm expecting Morant will be a lot different, the kid has a bright future in this path considering how he average in PPG.

Lots of games will be miss by him, but let's hope he is okay so he can still come back strong.

That's a lot of games to be honest and even on that duration we may assume he can't be a 100% fine to play on the court. He's the floor leader from Memphis they will surely struggle if Morant was still on that state, I do wish for a faster recovery of him.

So I'm looking at Pistons vs Golden State Warriors today. Boring match I guess to most people but I betted there so I'm interested in it.

I had some bad luck at first I predicted under 52.5 points in Q1 and I was rekt by a single point. Then my Q2 1x2 bet of Pistons was rekt to by Stephen Curry's two late freethrows

But fortunately I think all of my under 219.5-226.5 points bets will hit now that they played a disastrous second quarter, so I will be mostly alright. There's no way they can make up for this in the remainder of the game.

EDIT: The 3rd quarter had to be one of the lamest quarters I've seen.

He was amazing yesterday and not only he made triple-double but he made some records which only Wilt Chamberlain does the number of assists he made last night was so amazing for a Center like him.
