2024 NBA Season

[boyptc]

Russel Westbrook is having a good game. 12 point in 5/6 of shooting and it is just the start of the second quarter. I bet on cavs here and my bet is looking bad. The score is just close though, so there is still a good chance I can still win this game.

It's currently on the half time and the scores aren't that bad at all. 64 and 58, 6 points lead by Lakers. The three contributors have got good points and contributions, AD, Lebron and WB.

Good luck on your bet but too many things that can still happen at the last 2 quarters.

^^@baofeng was quicker than me.

Not yet the end. Your boy Donovan Mitchell is doing it. 28 points just for the entire 3 quarters with 6 mins remaining. Those runs and points that they've made, Lakers shouldn't taken it for granted despite they can recover from those.

Right now the game of Los Angeles Lakers VS Cleveland Cavaliers is commencing and the Lakers is on the lead right now with 35 - 29 but here is my take on my pick for today's game

I had even forgotten about today's game, I just turned on the tv to watch Lakers vs Cavs and was surprised by the result (end of third period)
Cavs turned the game around and with a 7-point lead.
Mitchell and Garland combined with 50 points!

[Yogee]

Looks like it's going to be 2-7 after the fourth quarter for the Lakers. Any idea why Pat Bev didn't play?

I remember seeing a post quoting Davis that other NBA teams actually fear them but their standings don't seem to share his opinion. I wonder where he gets all that confidence hehe.

if I'm not mistaken, I believe he wasn't even selected for today's game...
So far it's 15 points apart, I believe the Cavs victory is clearer, despite the fact that AD, LeBron and WestBrook are performing reasonably.

Another upcoming loss for the Lakers. 3:33 minutes remaining and the score is 109-95. Too much wasted outside shooting from the Lakers while they were given good shots by the Cavs.
These last minutes, no more Lebron, Davis, and Westbrook, they're just giving play time to their bench players. Well, another accepted loss by the Lakers on their home court.

They have third-quarter woes. They were performing very well in the first half of the game, but they are totally dominated in the second half. Their offense is not really good in the third quarter unlike in the first half. They still have a decent defense but that is not enough to win games. Once the Cavs started hitting their shots, the Lakers cannot catch up because they have a very poor offensive game. Their outside shots are not connecting so the Cavs only have to tighten the defense inside the perimeter and the game is over. The same story for the Lakers and I think this will continue unless they find somebody who can shoot outside to spread the defense for them.

First part of my parlay checked. Now the Jazz has to win against the Clippers later.

Yeah, they choked on the 3rd quarter for which it should be the momentum that they'll be tieing and going away from the lead that has been made to them but it's not.
It seems that they've got no game plan at all and anyone just shoots as if they're a shooter. They really need to let a man handle the outside shooting and they shouldn't be trying hard doing all of it. Look at how Cavs did it, they've got a big man under and can also shoot outside.
Congrats for the first part, wishing good on the next game.

The Big 3 of Lakers perform well but the teamwork of Cavs give the win, a 14 point deficit which is mostly because of shared ball movement.

It's tough for the Lakers to beat a team where everyone is involved, though Mitchel leads the offense
but aside from him, almost all the players who played for Cavs contributes, this team really have
a competitive squad this season.

I'm surprised why Utah Jazz has decent odds against the Clippers. Kawhi Leonard of the Clippers won't even play.

Utah Jazz is even performing well compared to Clippers as if we looked at their game history this season, Utah Jazz beats some good teams compared to Clippers.

Goodluck mate and I think you will nail that parlay.

And even if the Lakers took the lead in the first 24 minutes, the Cavs didn't panic, after all it's just less than 10 points that the Lakers are holding. They continue to do the things they have done in the first half, Mitchell doing the scoring, but the rest of the team are also contributing at both end of the floor.

While the Lakers can't find their rhythm although they have a somewhat good lead, and their big 3 scoring very well. And that has been the story of the Lakers lately, it's their big 3 that takes the brunt of the scoring and no one is stepping up to help them.

[Reid]

And another win from the Utah Jazz. No Clarkson in the fourth quarter, not a problem because they have Sexton to patch it up.
Markkanen's rebounding power though is what made a big difference in the game. Zubac was the big men on the floor and yet the young guy is dominating them all. Bouncy jumps and very good boxing out method. Like the commentator said, "they are real".

I have known the Clippers to be better at attacking the paint, but in the last minutes of the game I didn't see that. They are forcing three's and it's too obvious, nothing is going in. The run made by John Wall should've been the spark.

It only means that the Lakers have to work better than everyone else. They're now dwelling in losses and if this continuous then this is going to be another sad season for the whole Lakers and the investment that they've taken for these players are not worth it.

Mitchell also did a lot of points and so his teammates are involved in the whole game and that's why they're also eager to contribute to this win. Tomorrow, the Lakers will be against the Jazz and the Jazz just won their game against the Clippers. I guess two Los Angeles will be beaten by Jazz?

I did a quick search on how they are performing in the home and on the road and after that, I put a bet on the Jazz.
Clippers are 1-2 on the home while the Jazz are 3-3 before the game. Clippers aren't playing well on their home and based on stats, 59.8% of the time, the home team wins. Went all in with the Jazz and luckily, I won .

I thought that the Pelicans are the team to watch out this season, but it seems that the Jazz are the one to watch out. I mean we are expecting them to be in a rebuilding phase when they traded Mitchell and Gobert, but they surprised everybody with how they played in their last 11 games. Currently 2nd place in the west, the Jazz really got underrated players during the off-season in exchange for their 2 former superstars. Markkanen, Sexton, Beasley and they also got Olynyk who is a big that can shoot threes and can pass. They got a veteran in Conley and a rising star in Clarkson. I hope that they will maintain their way of playing all throughout the season to be in the playoffs.

Clippers on the other hand are 0/10 in 3pt line in the 4th quarter, and I guess because of that they lost despite of the amazing performance of PG13.

[YuginKadoya]

Russel Westbrook is having a good game. 12 point in 5/6 of shooting and it is just the start of the second quarter. I bet on cavs here and my bet is looking bad. The score is just close though, so there is still a good chance I can still win this game.

Well, your bet is good enough because the Cleaveland Cavaliers win the game with 14 lead, but surely even though I don't like Russell WestBrick, in this game I was really amazed, he was really slick in this game and the Lakers can surely win for sure but their defense was lost in the drain on the 4th quarter gaining momentum for the Cavaliers or Donovan Mitchell to force a good offense, but surely it was a close game for sure,

I also took Utah Jazz against the Clippers. I am just riding the unpredictability of the Jazz this season. It is still very early in the season so I figured they will not be figured out yet by the top team.

Even though Leonard and Kennard are out of this game, the Clippers are still a very formidable opponent with PG13 and John Wall healthy. Plus the bench of Clippers is very deep. Jazz has their work cut out for them.

Good luck with out bets

The Utah Jazz won aswell and surely I am so proud of my boy Jordan Clarkson, for me, he is a solidify now as the main player for the Jazz not just a sixth man for the team, well it still a close game for the two teams but again the spread on the Utah Jazz is quite enough to get the win,

I had even forgotten about today's game, I just turned on the tv to watch Lakers vs Cavs and was surprised by the result (end of third period)
Cavs turned the game around and with a 7-point lead.
Mitchell and Garland combined with 50 points!

I have forgotten the game aswell, but as I am looking around I stumble that the game between the Los Angeles Lakers and Cleaveland Cavaliers are already commencing, and surely I was late in preparation with my bets, so I made a bet for the remaining 3 games,



Now here is the result for the picks in today's game, and I was impressed with the results,

Memphis Grizzlies VS Washington Wizards SCORE 103 - 97 - WIN

Toronto Raptors VS Chicago Bulls SCORE 113 - 104 - WIN

Los Angeles Clippers VS Utah Jazz SCORE 102 - 110 - WIN

Sometimes I am extremely surprised with this performance (Lakers)
.
Even though LAL has AD, Westbrook and LeBron James, they lost to the Cavs (although in my opinion the Cleveland team this season has improved, I even speculate that they have a great chance of participating in the playoffs this season).

Guys, my doubt is, why the Lakers having the best players in the league, they still manage to lose to a "normal" team in the NBA?

Young and newly rebuild Jazz is really making their presence unlikely from how speculation comes around after trading both Mitchel and Gobert
and the rest of their starting cores.

Now they are simply showing that they are still in the competition by keeping on winning games, the chemistries and the teamwork
is a big factor to this newly form team, whoever come inside is really doing their job.

They are not afraid, and they are showing what they can contribute to help the team.

I like how they still managed to compete even though their star players are no longer there and they keep attacking and becoming the best in the western conference this season. Surely if they continue to play with such high-level performance, they can easily get back to play in the NBA playoffs, unlike the other teams that are struggling right now even though they have their superstar players with them. Utah Jazz is at another level where their chemistry helped them to execute such good play and keep them the best in the west.

Goodluck mate and I think you will nail that parlay.

Thanks! I did nail the parlay thanks to Jazz winning it against the Clippers. This young Jazz are for real. They are making the right plays all the time. I am gonna ride them again in their next match.

Another upcoming loss for the Lakers. 3:33 minutes remaining and the score is 109-95. Too much wasted outside shooting from the Lakers while they were given good shots by the Cavs.

I do not think it is a total loss, not just yet. Everytime I see Westbrook taking control of the ball, there are always easy two's for Lebron or Davis, whoever is available. I think they are getting the right plays but the fire power is really not yet enough. I think they will start winning when they secondary units starts to be comfortable with each other and their outside shooting is fixed. It is early in the season and a lot has to be done but I right now, I see some sparks of improvement.

I thought that the Pelicans are the team to watch out this season, but it seems that the Jazz are the one to watch out.

I hope that they will maintain their way of playing all throughout the season to be in the playoffs.

They are all very young with only a few players above 30. I do not expect injuries to interfere with their run. These young players can stay healthy and maybe can play all 82 games. So I expect them to maintain the way they play the whole season. It is upon the opponents to figure out how to stop their impressive plays. Their problems will be in the playoffs because they do not have enough veterans to guide them but that is too far in the season yet.

They have to restrategize and think on what part they can be used at maximum. Yeah, we're seeing that all of them are being used and showing the best of it.
But what they lack of is when they're being lead on by their opponent and it's like they're no longer playing as a team. Maybe this isn't on their end but maybe on the coaching side.
It's hard to say but this is just me, as a fan and that's what I've noticed as someone who watches the game but no idea what's actually happening and being discussed in the bench.
