2024 NBA Season

[Sanitough]

Another L for the Jazz, that's their 3rd losing streak. After a hot start, looks like they are in the struggle stage now, hopefully, they'll be able to stop that losing streak. By the way, Rockets are fun to watch,  led by Green, they beat the Hawks at home, nice game for them, they showed their great chemistry.

The King is back and the Los Angeles Lakers put an end to their away phobia. They defeated San Antonio 94-105. LeBron contributed to his team with 21 points. If Lebron does not suffer from injury in the next games, the Los Angeles Lakers will be on the rise. He knocked out the in-form Sacramento Kings in Boston and perhaps kickstarted a new streak.

Let's see if they will defeat a good team. Actually, they already defeated the spurs without Lebron, so having him back would only be easy for them. Their run is good without him but for sure they have already adjusted, Westbrook seemed to be fitting well on his new role, less attempts and more on passing the ball.

I agree that it was against a weak team, and it you look at they are the favorite to win against the Spurs and they did a good job to cover the handicap spread.

But the big test is against a top team in either conference, we will see how the Lakers are going to respond on that game with AD and now Lebron James back in the game. So ti's too early to say that they have settled down already.

A long way to go for the Lakers, and we can only hope that Lebron will remain healthy throughout this season.

Curry scored 33 points and helped the Warriors beat Utah at home, Wiggins and Thompson also showed a good game and scored 20 points. Steve Kerr talks about a turning point in the results for the team, as far as home matches, I agree with him, but for the away games it's not so positive so far. But the team is moving up and the Warriors seem to be feeling more confident.

And Sacramento, after a series of wins, suffers the second defeat in a row, this time they lost to Boston, which is now very good.

[xzone]

We missed seeing Lebron on the field. After failing to play a few games, he performed well as if he had never been injured. Anthony Davis also played well and they were able to win this match.
The Lakers continue to play better every day. Westbrook also managed to be included in the team with his assists and had an impact on the victory

[YuginKadoya]

Now here is the result for the games today

Houston Rockets VS Atlanta Hawks SCORE 128 - 122 - LOST

I have only seen 3 players most of the time on the side of the Hawks, right now I am amazed by the change in pace with the Houston Rockets that they have shown in this game, great score spread for them 5 players have a double-digit score, Kevin Porter Jr, had a double-double performance of 10 assist and 12 points, while Jabari Smith Jr. and Kenyon Martin Jr. both got 21 points, Garrison Matthew got 20 points and Jalen Green with 30 points, showing how versatile the players of the Rockets,

Milwaukee Bucks VS Cleveland Cavaliers SCORE 117 - 102 - WIN

Now the Cleaveland Cavaliers have a decent 1st haft I really thought that they will win over the Bucks but again at the start of the 2nd half all those momenta were washed down the drain when the Bucks have become lit, and yes Giannis Antetokounmpo set ablaze with 38 points

Boston Celtics VS Sacramento Kings SCORE 122 - 104 - WIN

Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown have done it again, I really thought that the Kings will make a lead but the Celtics have stopped it all, and the Sacramento Kings have a lot of turns over and losing the game,

Golden State Warriors VS Utah Jazz SCORE 129 - 118 - WIN

The game was surely a great game to watch indeed, the Warriors got a lead that the Jazz surely is unable to pass, but after the 3rd quarter the Jazz made their 1st lead, but still, Stephen Curry just messes it again, surely I think this was the best game that I watch and the Utah Jazz still got some learning and adapting to do, and I think they can still improve a lot of things,

Yeah, he is back and he still had the hops, and as if he was not injured at all. Truly amazing how Lebron really take care of his body through the years although this season, he has a lot of missed games as compare to previous years, just shows that someone maybe his body is really telling same signs that Father time is approaching.

Nevertheless, good to see him score and drive to the basket and push the Lakers to win, but others will not be impressed because of the level of opposition.

So next will be Pacers if I'm not mistaken, they will have a good 1-2 day rest so we should expect that they will against another low team in Indiana.

I just saw on the social media about the rebuttal of Dwight Howard on what Shaq has said about him and the league. For the shortcut and context.

Shaq is belittling the league in Taiwan but Dwight comes into defense and took the heart of many with his reponse.

It's on this news: Dwight Howard fires back at Shaq over Taiwan League slander

A helathy Davis always gives the Lakers a winning chance, and like what you mentioned Westbrook is now comfortable with his new role, more on
passing the ball and letting his teammate to create good offense.

Now, with LeBron it will be a good additional in terms of skillset, looking to see if how LeBron will adjust with the system that they are currently
using which seems to be effective with their role players.

I'm not gonna say LeBron has played very well, though he really has an impact when he's on the floor, but with those 9 turnovers, that, will going to cost them against a much better opponent.
They have blow out game against the Spurs twice. The first one ended with a 30+ pts margin. Tonight the game ended with just 11 pts lead. It's either the Spurs have improved or the Lakers played not so well than the first one.
Let's see what will happen tomorrow as they are going to face the Spurs again for the 3rd time this season and also a back to back game.

Spurs are on a 7 game losing streak currently. Although the Lakers are not much better, the Lakers do have more talent on their team and should be an easy win for them. Anyone reading this might consider betting a little on the Lakers tonight. I wouldn't risk more than I could afford, but the odds are gonna be in your favor.

Jazz played well in the last game. Almost all the players had a good well-rounded game. But the problem is Stephen Curry carried his team on his back. Of course, he had help from the other players. But eventually, we have to say it was he who actually got the win for his team. The warrior seems to be getting better currently. And they will have to get better otherwise, they are not going to be able to get to the top.

Lebron's return is always a good thing for the Lakers, and he already contributed to the victory over the Spurs by scoring 21 points. However, it's worth noting that he also had 9 turnovers in that game, and that's mildly awful. It's obvious he will need some more time to fully adapt and return to his game shape, given that he has missed quite a lot of games due to injury.

[Party24*7]

I think if LeBron James joins the equation as you said, this team is likely to get far better in my opinion. Obviously, if the players start playing well as a team and everyone on the team starts contributing, the star players are going to have less pressure on them. When the players know that there are other players who can come in the clutch, it will be easier for them to perform freely. That will relieve them of a lot of burden. Anthony Davis, Walker, Westbrook, and LeBron James are all set to make the team very strong together. I just hope that the players stay healthy.

That is yet to be proven though. They were losing when Lebron was around and controlling the ball. They are winning when Lebron is sidelined, and the ball has a good rotation. I think Lebron needs to step back and let the young guys take control of the ball. He is still good but becomes a liability in defense when he is on the floor and hogs the ball for stats. That is ruining the team.

What I am wondering is, was it LeBron James' fault that they were losing, or was it the fault of the team as a whole? I thought LeBron James was doing as well as he could have been doing. The team was not able to play around him. So, if the team is able to play well around him, they will be able to perform well as a team. As long as that does not happen, it is likely that this will not be fixed in the near future.

LeBron help the Lakers winning the game even he just came from an injury he make sure that his comeback will be a win for his team
not saying that they are playing against an underdog, but it's a good start for him.

He just need to keep doing his best to help and make them be more competitive
they are still not in the level where the dominance is being felt, we will see improvement
when they face super-teams and they'll beat their ass.

[OgNasty]

Lots of LeBron talk as he’s back in the rotation for the Lakers and helped them get a win yesterday. They’ve got a rematch again today against the San Antonio Spurs, so hopefully we see more domination from Anthony Davis and LeBron is able to play in the back to back. They’re slowly starting to show some life, but I think that team has a lot of issues that will keep them from postseason success.

[Kasabus]

Pat Bev suspended for three games for shoving Ayton in case you didn't know yet. The punishment looks harsh but I guess that's what repeat offenders get. I'm all for defending or protecting a teammate from being disrespected but do it in front of their faces hehe. Lakers probably still lucky since they'll have a back to back game against a struggling Spurs.

Yeah, saw that on my feed as well, and as we have said, Bev has been pesky defender, but in terms of protecting his team mate he will be the first one to do it just like in this case against Ayton.

And Booker saying that Pat should stop pushing players in the back?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N6I2fYgpFts

Kindly remind him though.

While Devin Booker is improving, his dirty plays are improving as well. The league should be much careful next time on who will they the suspension next time, I get that Pat Bev is way out of lines but he does have a reason why he did it and he didn't regret it. That altercation won't be exploding if Booker didn't played dirty on the first place. Next time if the NBA will give some punishments, it should be fair. Surely every teammate like Pat Bev will do something like that.

We need to realize they have plenty of other good players now as well. Back in the day it was just curry-klay-draymond that carried the team and the other players could change, iggy and shaun livingston played a great role as well but wasn't the key factor if you ask me (how iggy got fmvp is still beyond me).

However, these days they added poole and wiggins which are at a much higher level and they so much, Curry is playing like it's one of his best seasons ever even at his older age, and we are seeing the team growing so much together. I am guessing that it's not going to be easy but they do have a chance to win the title again if they get better on defence.

Yes, it seems that they again found their rhythm? like their championship years wherein both are enjoying the game. And hopefully James defy everyone at his age. Nevertheless, it will be a good matchup against the young San Antonio Spurs.

As for the Booker comment about Pat Bev, we will see, Booker somewhat looks to get himself involved in trash talking, however, I will say that they are also a choker in the playoff. He can get respected if he can win rings, other than that, he is just like the rest of the NBA who just open his mouth but then can't back it up.
