2024 NBA Season

[harizen]

And that's it... San Antonio Spurs playoffs streak appearance will continue this year after beating Sacramento Kings and clinch their playoffs spot. 21 years and counting and one of the longest playoffs streak in the NBA history.

Manu Ginóbili surprises the crowd with his performance. 17 big points to help the Spurs and playing like he's not on 40. Actually 3 months from now he will became 41 and look he is still threat on the floor. That nasty dunk of him during the 4th quarter showing us that there is no such thing as oldies in NBA lol.

Spurs will likely to faced the Portand Trail Blazers on which they just defeat recently. Their head to head series this season is 2-1 in favor of Spurs. Let's see if they can handle the Blazers and passed on the second round.

I would bet on the Spurs on that first round despite they do not have the home court advantage.
They are a threat because of the very discipline players, I might even think of putting my money to them to win in the NBA finals, what do you think?

I think its possible but would really be a tough path for them to made up to the top.There are lots of strong teams too.Im once a fan of SPURS and even nowadays Manu Ginobli do still amaze me inspite of his age and as being said hes still a threat on where his performance in the court doesnt still fade up.

Facing with Blazers, no doubt Spurs will win this one but theres no assurance since anything can happen.

Against the Portland Trail Blazers if they meet on the first round, i think they had a chance although not that big because they don't have Leonard in their line-up. Putting your money on them to win it all is an insane act. Even though their players are discipline players but their key players are not that young anymore.

76ers are on a 14 game win streak and are 10-2 ATS in there last 12 games i expect them to cover easy, also no Bazemore and Schroder, The Wizards/Celtics total is set at 205.5 which is way to low considering there last 10 meetings have gone over 8-2 times, i also do think the Wizards win they have a lot more to play for and the Celtics are already locked in the second seed with nothing to play for.

Philadelphia 76ers did crush Atlanta last night 121-113.
I was keeping tabs on the DC game as the Wizards did clinch a spot near the bottom of the playoffs race and they beat the Hawks last week with Wall as well. He got his 5,000th assist along with the win last night and their coach said he will be resting next game as they want him fresh for the playoffs.
I believe you got the over with a 113-101 score line as the Wizards played good ball while the Celtics were playing injured as they are without the wisdom of Kyrie Irving.
They won't get far into it but at least they don't need to face the Raptors as DC will be doing that first round.

Let us see about that.
Portland have been good offensively but they will be playing with the Jazz who beats Golden State yesterday.
This could likely tell if they are really that strong. The defense of Utah have been talked by commentators and they are getting a lot of praise from it. 40 points lead against the GS is not a joke. That means a hard played game.

Portland cannot just play offensively, if it is against the Spurs who have a different kind of level of game when they are on the floor they will really need that defensive strategy too.

Who we liking for tomorrows game, Timberwolves or Nuggets? whoever loses is out of playoff contention.

I like Denver Nuggets rally in trying to get a playoffs spot. I thought this team will not even make it to the 8 but they gave a good rally while season is coming to end that's why currently, they are now on the final stage to fight for the last playoffs spot. They are currently on 6 winning streak (closed to 7 but loss only a few digits by the Toronto Raptors and they played good back then). I like Minnesota Timberwolves to be in playoffs too but Im seeing Denver Nuggets will gave a good match against the Houston Rockets.

P.S. Timberwolves and Nuggets never defeat Houston Rockets this season.

~snipped~

The final playoffs matchup will now be finalized tomorrow after season games ends. San Antonio Spurs will surely matched on either Portland Trail Blazers or Utah Jazz.

[boyptc]

What are you bets for tomorrows match?

Pacers vs Hornets

Hawks vs 76ers

Wizards vs Celtics

Mavericks vs Suns

Jazz vs Warriors

Lakers vs Rockets

No bets for me tomorrow but i'm liking the 76ers to cover and the overs in the Wizards/Celtics game.

Can you give me a reason why you prefer to choose 76ers? so what's your choice between Wizards and Celtics?

76ers are on a 14 game win streak and are 10-2 ATS in there last 12 games i expect them to cover easy, also no Bazemore and Schroder, The Wizards/Celtics total is set at 205.5 which is way to low considering there last 10 meetings have gone over 8-2 times, i also do think the Wizards win they have a lot more to play for and the Celtics are already locked in the second seed with nothing to play for.

Good choice with Hawks Vs 76ers* = winner.

While in Celtics vs Wizards* = winner.

Wow you've got a nice prediction, you seem to be a good predictor.  

[Lionidas]

76ers and the Wizards were both favorites to win their matches in the games played last night.
It seems it is either the Timberwolves or the Nuggets that will be sent off if they lose the match up tonight.
And it is too true, the games are inconsistent and can end either way the closer and closer we get to the first round of the playoffs.

[Vasilije69]

This amazing season is coming to an end. Tonight might be one of the most interesting final days ever.
We will find out who will get placed where and who will end without playoff, sadly.
On the East, we will find out who will end as 3rd of Philla and Cleveland and placement from 6th to 8th of Bucks, Heat and Wizards.
What to say about West, lol.
Well, everything except first two places is one big mistery. I will just say that one of the competing teams will stay out of Playoffs. And it will be loser of the match between Wolves and Nuggets.

No sleeping tonight, definitely

I will just say that one of the competing teams will stay out of Playoffs. And it will be loser of the match between Wolves and Nuggets.

Wolves outlast Nuggets on the OT, Denver had a good run starting the 3rd quarter with their leader Nikola Jokic having 7-7 on the floor including 3 3s. However, they fell short, Jimmy's offensive aggressiveness and defensive stops, make the OT hard for the Denver Nuggets. Kudos, to both teams who brought a very close and undeniably great game. Also, Credits to Nikola Jokic, he's really one of a kind player and for the T'wolves the drought is over welcome to the Play-offs again! A deserved win for the wolves.

Let's see how far can they go this POs, would the Rockets go all the way or wolves will upset them? Interesting first round of the Western Conference.

GSW against SPURS, I hope that both Curry and Kawhi would play for the 1st round!

Can't wait for the POs to start!

Let us not forget the Defensive effort Andrew Wiggins has put up, his match was Wilson Chandler were he hold him scoreless for the whole game. I mean who can do that? With a lot of pressure in the game Wiggins maintained his composure. Its been 14 years since the Minnesota Timberwolves entered into the playoffs and its about time they did. Finally a team where we can be comfortable seeing even on the 8th seed facing the Houston Rockets. Now what is only left is for Timberwolves to have at least a good run with the Rockets. Fans are totally happy on the result of the game. Especially for those who are watching live in their home court.

I believe that both Kawhi and Curry will not gonna play on the first round. But I believe that GSW can still go to the Eastern finals without Curry since they are solid team and not relying only on steph. There other players that can cover the role of curry. In terms of Spurs, They are strong too but they are just in bad luck since they will be facing GSW in first round.

In most playoff scenario, gs will steamroll any number 7 team even without steph since they're still stacked with durant leading. But with the spurs being number 7, i think steve kerr would've preferred to have faced number 6 or 5. Of course kahwi is a big loss, but if ypu have someone who can run around those losses and come up with a potent alternative, it's popovich

Every loss would really have corresponding reactions or plans and it would entirely depending on their head coach.We wont really able to see some of their top players but it wont really be an issue and as you said theres still durant and the entire team wont really easily give the other team to have an easy game inspite of the absense of their starplayers. SPURS would really have still need to strive.

It was an amazing final day before the post season.
All favorites lost their matches in their matchups last night.
Denver Nuggets lost to the Minnesota Timberwolves knocking them out even with a wounded Wolves team it was a good match.
Orlando did some magic beating the Wizards, Knicks kicked the Cavaliers, Clippers got clipped by the Lakers, Portland set a blaze the Utah saints (I know it is the Jazz but who can burn jazz ) and the biggest surprise is Sacramento killing the Rockets.
The day before I was reading how Vince Carter announced one more season with the Kings will be his last.
Good on him to beat up on Houston right before the playoffs to bring him back down to earth.
They need to see they can be beat by lower teams and are not bulletproof going into this years playoffs just like last season where they bowed out to San Antonio during the second round.

[harizen]

So yes this is it, season now finally ended and we're now getting some thrilling action at the Playoffs. Some changes had been made to the matchups I speculated.

Here are now the head to head team match in the upcoming Playoffs:

Golden State Warriors almost failed to make it, I wasn't even expecting them to join the play offs. I've been following their Facebook and Instagram site and I see their posts that they lost, and lost again and lost again. GSW is good when Curry is around, but without Curry, I don't think they have a good chance to make it to the Finals. What happened to their strength in numbers?

Failed to make it? They are at number 2 my friend. They are a strong team even without Curry for now. Durant is there and the whole team have a lot to offer.
Green with the defensive line, Livingston, Young and Thompson can also offer their good offensive power.

This is not a one man team. It is just better when Curry is around because of his offensive explosion.

Even with the whole NBA combined they will still get in at number 3 spot.

Rockets 65-17
Raptors 59-23
Warriors 58-24
Celtics 55-27

They kept on losing because of the injuries of their main players and the are just back a week ago.

Are you really following them?  And you don't even expecting them to joined playoffs? Impossible they can't even reached the 8th spot lol. They even have a large margin to the team on the West 3rd spot (Portland Trail Blazers).

I just can't recap it and not sure of this but if my memory serves right, Golden State Warriors is on the top seed of the West until February or early March before Houston Rockets take the spot.

Also if you really follow their Facebook you must know that their main starters suffered an injury during the last phase of the season that's why their production is not that fully performed.
