2025 NBA Season

[Japinat]

The game was close. It can went either way. Wes Matthew's 3's was the big difference. Butler play good tonight however, they did a good job of pressuring on Chicago, making them make tough shots,

Jimmy Butler had 24 points and I still think he is a genuine NBA superstar. This is just one game.

It's one game but if you look at the past games of the Chicago Bulls, it's not impressive anymore. Bulls had a good start but with the health issues of Wade, Rondo, and Butler, it slightly lessen the chemistry factor that is needed to win. As as see, the big superstar in the team is Butler but he cannot handle it by himself, he needs the support of wade and Rondo, especially their bench.

Is it my view but are the Rockets suffering right now? I saw them play last night in the fourth last night and they weren't landing any of their shots and none of their three's were going in.
The other night I was watching their game too and noticed that Harden was just not landing any of his key plays like he normally does.
Is it just me but are the Rockets cooling their jets now?
They are back at home tonight right? So I would like to say them to win but at under 220.5 points cause they scored 211 total last night and they played the Bucks before and can't see it going over 216 unless they go into over time.
What do you think of this prediction?

Removed some quoted post.

Im not pointing to the characteristics of Butler being a superstar. We all know he is really the main man of the Bulls today. Just pointed out back in my previous post that even Butler is present in the floor, it will not going to be an easy win for them even the opponent is Dallas Mavericks like the one poster above said ( I bolded them at the quote ).

Both teams are unpredictable and doing great in their last 2 games before meeting up a while ago. I just saw that it will be a close game and chanced for Dalls to steal thesince Dallas are back in shape in that couple of game they played so I put some risk on betting to them plus the fact that the odds given for ML is really worth to try.

In the night another triple double for Harden,its thirteenth, in season (40 points, 10 assists, 12 rebounds), but his percentages were very low (scored 12 of 30) and Houston lost the third match of the last four!

Now that you mentioned bench support, yes, I agree with you, Butler needs the support he can get specially the 2 you talked about. No doubt, he is the team no. 1 star player, but if he didn't get any support or the team's bench is not consistent, them it would be difficult for them to win.

But I still believe the Butler's Chicago Team will be a force to reckon in the East, they just needed to be consistent and stay healthy.

The beard played well in their game today he's a great player I have no doubt but sadly they loss again hoping for their win against the bucks. I've lost the parlay because of this

MVP race is better now. Are you on Harden's side or Westbrook's side? Which is better? Making your team Top3 West or breaking triple-double records with triple-double averages? I'm opening new poll, please vote and write your thoughts. I also added Durant, Lebron and Leonard but I don't think they have a chance.
I think Westbrook's performance is better, considering his team is weaker than Harden's Houston. Averaging a triple-double is a very hard achievement. He also do it with a play-off team already.
Oklahoma City is in 7th seed with 25-18 record. Houston Rockets is in 3rd seed with 32-12 record.

If I will ask for today about that, I will go for Russel Westbrook. Yes currently he is behind by Harden but only within close points. And there are still lots of remaining games to be played and if his Beastbrook mode will maintained surely he will get the MVP title this season.

Why I choose him over Harden? Westbrook is the main cager of the OKC today and all plays including clutch one are being handed to him at all times. In short, no other options. Harden on the other side have a bunch of teammates that can also perform the way he does so the role are being distributed to the whole Rockers roster.

P.S Im only pointing about that stats. If in terms of team stats, no doubt that Rockers is more dominant than the Thunders and have much chances to be as conference finals contender in the West.

For MVP race, stats are the most important rather than the great role even a player bring his team into the top. James Harden has a good backup so I can't considered that guy as the one lifting the Rockets into the top. Unlike in the case of Russel Westbrook where we all know that he is mainly the guy who are doing all around role in Oklahoma City Thunder. And with his great streak of performance, his teammate are being carried away with him that's why they can stand even against the strong opponent.

I will choose Westbrook for now. Honestly, I can't actually decide who will be the MVP at the season end since there are still long road to be that needs to be passed.

We all know who's the real MVP and that's Lebron James, let's all forget about that and vote some of these ball huggers who will never get close to carrying a team to the NBA Finals alone (Westbrook and Durant almost made it last year...).

In my opinion Harden has more help in Houston than Westbrook in OKC, so for that alone I can see Westbrook with the slight advantage over the Beard. I really though OKC would be out of the question in terms of a playoff spot, but the West had been very week so far. They can even challenge some top seeds if they managed to incorporate a couple of players before the trade deadline.

[Golftech]

for me even harden got a lots of help coming from his team mates he still deserved the MVP for this season as we seen all the hard works and his dedication to win in each games they played, aside from that he also learn to step up in terms of passing and defense but as we all knew that the season still long to assess but looking forward for harden to keep improving and deserve the win.

Did not expect New york Knicks to beat Boston Celtics tonight. At Celtics home that too by 11 points, that was a shocker. Also, Philadelphia 76'ers beat Toronto Raptors. Wasn't expecting that either.

Derrick Rose put a show tonight with 30 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals, 2 blocks for the Knicks.

If you guys really do care about who the real potential mvp between James Harden and Russell Westbrook, your guy should watch Golden State Warriors vs Oklahoma City Thunder few minutes later. Let's see if Russell Westbrook can carry his team to victory, I personally believe he can make it. Oklahoma City Thunder +12.5 @ 2.22

Yeah. Raptors ripped my heart out again. Derozen just couldn't put down the shots when it counted and Lowry had something up with the same ref all night. He slapped him with a technical near the end for good measure. Those three calls from that same ref cost them the game. Just because Kyle didn't throw him the ball after the turn over. Sheesh!
I had them for under 220.5 and the win but they couldn't do it with those filthy calls from that ref.

Boston's bench didn't play well. While Isaiah Thomas was in bench in 2nd quarter they lost the lead. Rose's one of the best performances this season made an impact for the team and they deserved the victory. I had Isaiah Thomas over 28.5 points bet, that come really easy (in first half in 3rd quarter) but I lost my parlay because in Charlotte game Kemba Walker stayed in 23 points. I need only 1 more point but when Hornets make a 20 points difference coach benched starting five so that was a frustrating lost parlay.

That happened because teams can improve, looks like the Philadelphia Sixers are a more shocking one. I still cannot believe what they are doing, they are in a 3 winning streak now. I want to be surprise all the time for this team, maybe their previous bad record inspired them to work harder now. Good luck to Sixers and keep it coming.

This lost was really unexpected raptors is one of my fav from the east and we knew how well they play the games but those calls really affected the team and sixers take that advantage and aim the wins, it will be a long games to watch and expect most of this coming from different matched favored team loses with underdogs.

I hated the way Memphis played tonight. Where were their defense against the wizards? They let them make really easy lay ups and didn't even challenge them.
Took an under on points and only lost by going over by 2 points.
Lost a chance at 99mbtc with 5mbtc on the parlay I took. The other 4 matches were good.
Ah well. Just can't trust these sure teams anymore in this years basketball season.

Teams are very unpredictable now, Memphis last year was a very defensive team and most bets goes under with them. Further, it's the same thing what happens with the Spurs now, they are allowing their opponent to score more than 100 points including the weak teams. I guess they are following what the warriors are doing, the problem is their offense is not as good as the warriors.

[Caladonian]

What a blow out coming from gsw defeating okc with 21pts its really hard for okc to wins against the fans its just a tie game in the half time thinking that okc will keep doing the great start but gsw start to blow coming the third quarter and make a dot in the fourth outscoring the okc. Durant play really big today 40points for him.
