2027 NBA Season

[danherbias07]

From the Kyrie impossible shot to the super dunk of Anthony Edwards. Damn, I love the NBA.
Here's the link.
Antman dunk on Collins link

How many times have we seen this guy do some crazy shit?
He did it before against the Raptors forward Yuta Watanabe on the sideline. He also does this high-flying skill on defense with that winning block recently against the Pacers. Truly amazing. That's a lot of posters that need to be bought if you are a hardcore Antman fan.

Timberwolves won the game against the Jazz and Antman actually made just 5 or 6 points in the first half and then exploded in the 2nd half ending with 32 superb points to help his team claim the win.

Sacramento Kings versus the Memphis Grizzlies also had an entertaining game that ended in overtime with Malik Monk exploding to help the Kings win it.

I just saw this online, and I think this is the most hilarious jersey swaps in NBA history already.

It's funny but I am still waiting for Grady to make this move with Jalen Suggs from the Orlando Magic.
In my opinion this would be a much more hilarious swap.

This dunk was lit but I rather wanted to see this other one go in:

If this went in it would have been the dunk of the year. Anthony on Anthony violence.

Look how high he could jump... That could be a big poster if the dunk went in, unfortunately Davis was able to disrupt it and proved that he really is a good shot blocker, but to be able to make a successful dunk against a good shot blocker, that's already a big success. ANT has been so confident this season, not only his game has improve but he had some highlights as well, did this game had already joined the slam dunk competition?

Yeah, but we all know that Anthony Davis, if not going to block you, will have to alter your shots. And probably this is what happened year, a blow by by ANT but he still has to contend with AD at the top. And so AD as one of the top blockers in the league, was not afraid to go and try to block ANT's shot. It could have made as one of the best for the year and AD being posterized.

I don't think that he had joined the dunk contest, but fans wanted him to join because of his ridiculous dunk during game time. And he is really a high flyer, just weeks ago, he block Pacer's Nesmith shot and preserved their win. And in doing so, he hit the backboard, so it shows how ANT is a high flyer.

If he did that to Lebron, I believe he could be successful. AD is still not out of his prime, still young and could compete at a high level. One of the best big man in the NBA, posterizing him is almost impossible, unless it wasn't contested.

I think he should joined next all star as the last one has been boring, maybe with the hype he created now, he could bring the fans to be interested in watching the game. I also like Morant to joined, small but not afraid to posterize someone.

Yeah, he should join, at least it will be a breath of fresh air to the competition. Last 2 years was boring, although McLung bring the hype again, but this years candidate is just so-so. Having ANT and others who can really soar high for a dunk will be good.

Wolves still going good in the West despite KAT's absence. I thought that it will be a big impact, but they remain resilient and in the top of the standing. They are also in a 3 game winning streak. So it's a good sign that when KAT is back in the playoff round, they are still very solid team.

Shams is reporting that Isaiah Thomas is signing a 10-day contract with the Suns. I think this is a great signing because Isaiah has earned another chance in the NBA, the Suns lack a true point guard, and if this goes bad it’s only a 10-day contract. I’m really hoping it works out though because I think Isaiah got a bum deal in Boston and should have been rewarded for his loyalty and sacrifice.

It's been almost 2 years since Isaiah Thomas last played in the NBA. Honestly, I'm surprised that he still hasn't given up and is still obsessed with returning to the NBA. Hopefully, he can prove himself in such a short time, and the Suns will sign him to a minimum contract at least until the end of next season.

But he was still active if I'm not mistaken, so he could be seeing playing pick up games to make his body in good form. And he was trying out with several teams, so that's a good sign already.

Most likely the Suns needed a guard and they are willing to go out and take that risk on IT and see if he still has it. I don't think that anyone should really stop chasing their dreams of returning to the NBA as once IT was putting insane numbers when he was a Celtics.

I don't see it them making a risk because a 10 day contract doesn't cost them must. And they don't make this decision if they are not seeing a potential from him, who knows he will be a big contributor for the team, with his playoffs experience, I'm sure he could help the Suns if his contract will extended.

I saw some players before given a 10day contract that became successful in getting a long term contract.

Most familiar to me is Hassan Whiteside which was reportedly has retired this year.

Few more games left in the regular season and one of the finalists last year is still struggling for a spot in the playoffs. I am referring to the Miami Heat who's supposed to start having win streaks to finished at least in the top 6. Although the team even if it's in the play-in or inside the top 6 remains as the dark horse in the eastern conference just like the Lakers and the Warriors in the west. There are young teams in the top rankings but I doubt any of these 3 experienced teams enter the finals again this season.

I like the resiliency of Miami Heat, as long as Bam can play in the playoff, they will be the dark horse team and unpredictable, just like last season and the in the bubble wherein they go into the finals against the Lakers.

For the Lakers and the Warriors, it's a long road for this former champions. Specially the Warriors, there still something that is missing with them. Klay is inconsistent, although they are doing their best to be at least in the play-in. But I do agree that either of this teams are not going into the finals. Time for other teams in the West to shine.

That Anthony Edwards dunk from yesterday was something else.  He's definitely the most Michael Jordan-like player in the league today.  Yesterday's highlight was something I'm not sure we've seen since Blake Griffin in his prime.  The crazy thing is Anthony Edwards is still extremely young and getting better.  I think he has a shot at being the best player in the league for a few years in another 2-3 seasons.  I think he makes the all star team no problem next year (I think he was an alternate this year) and once LeBron is gone will probably become the new face of the league along with Luka Doncic.

I just saw this online, and I think this is the most hilarious jersey swaps in NBA history already.

It's funny but I am still waiting for Grady to make this move with Jalen Suggs from the Orlando Magic.
In my opinion this would be a much more hilarious swap.  

Speaking of jersey swaps, I saw this online which is kind of funny while I'm reading all of them. I just hope that Grady will not really make some jersey swaps with these players because like you said, it would be hilarious.  Well, maybe he can do a jersey swap with either Nasir Little or Trae Young.

He's capable of dunking with other players. The only thing is that, he has no reliable PG that can throw lobs to him like what CP3 is doing with Blake Griffin at his prime. Well, that's why the LA Clippers was called "Lob City" years ago for that reason.

As for Edwards' dunk, that's a monster dunk coming from him and he's been doing it many times in his whole career, but his reaction when he sees the video of him dunking over Collins is just crazy. Between Edwards' dunk and Jackson-Davis' dunk, I would still pick TJD's dunk over Wembanyama because like what the announcer said, "he put the entire country of France in a basket".

I just came across this article that was a bit of an interesting read.  I had no idea that Damian Lillard and DeMar DeRozan were good friends like this.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nba/demar-derozan-on-damian-lillard-coming-to-chicago-to-watch-him-play/ar-BB1kaKGJ

It sort of makes you wonder if Dame is planning something for the future or if he just wanted to get some free tickets to watch the Trailblazers play while he happened to be in town.  Certainly there are going to be rumors flying now that Dame is unhappy in Milwaukee and is planning to get back to Portland (he already said he wants to retire there) and is recruiting some buddies to go back with.  DeRozan is certainly unhappy in Chicago, so both of them ending up in Portland wouldn't be totally out of the realm of possibility.

It's a tough  road for all of them,  especially for Lakers and Warriors  as we all know how tough the competition from the west side, all those teams on top are really trying to reached the finals,  it's going to be a big test for both Lakers and Warriors as they are still in the play in situation  only one can go and proceed for the next round not unless there's a big changes that may happened a big losing run for those on the top 8 teams and a winning run either from Lakers or warriors that might change the positioning.

On the east  side, heat already  done that before,  even  they are having an issue  on the regular season  but if by chance they manage to make it to the playoffs they always have that capability to upset the top rank.

Lakers got another win, the thing is that teams around them are not doing that much worse neither, so they can't climb up the spots, they are playing at 50%+ most of the time and not having any big losing streaks, in fact getting a few good short win streaks as well and yet they are still not getting any higher, all because teams around them are getting wins too. Like how Dallas just got away with a win over Denver for example.

I think there isn't really any rush to do better neither, because they know they will probably finish 9th, Warriors are not looking like they will climb up, so that means at 9th place they could just place themselves at 8th place with a win at play-in and they could just hope for the best against OKC.

I'm sure these two teams (Lakers and Warriors) will make play in tournament and only one of them will make playoffs. Hopefully its Lakers since i still really want to watch Lebron playing Playoffs. NBA fans saying that it possible Lakers and OKC will battle 1st round playoffs and they predicting that OKC will first round exit. I want to but look Lakers really struggling to make playoffs this year 😭

If we will have the playoff already, this could be the scenario,

(1) Thunder vs. ( Mavericks/Suns/Lakers/Warriors
(2) Timberwolves vs. (7) Mavericks/Suns
(3) Nuggets vs. (6) Kings
(4) Clippers vs. (5) Pelicans

So in any case top seed Thunder with no experience will have to deal with any of that top teams. So it will be interesting match up, against the Mavs, they have to contained with Luka and Kyrie. Suns their own big three of Durant/Booker/Beal. And the Lakers, even with James entering 20 season, he is still very much close to still being prime and with AD. Of course, the championship DNA of the Warriors. Possible for the Thunder to get upset by any of this teams. This is a series, maybe Thunder will win some game, but if they lack the experience, it could be very difficult for them.

Very close game between the Denver and Wolves, ANT had another of his fantastic game but he missed a game trying three points that will force the game into OT. Jokic takes advantage as Gobert is not in uniform and so he started very active and probably his lowest assists for this season at 2.

But him and Porter made clutch basket in the last 5 minutes. And although the Wolves try to make a comeback with back to back threes to close the gap, their FT is enough to get a good separation and ANT didn't convert.

Very competitive game for the wolves despite being undermanned. They manage to make it a close game despite Denver able to take control early. No 2 big men for the team, still they could almost get a win and could give another L for the Nuggets who loss to the Mavs from Irving's winning shot.

I agree that ANT is really good but honestly (no offense), this guy is not a clutch player, so probably 40% success rate only will be given to him based on my personal assessment.
