2024 NBA Season

~snipped~

This Pelicans is one hell of an offensive team now. A sudden change with the way they play have been seen with the fight against the Portland.
Offense with a higher defense. The winning pieces to be the champion.
Rondo doing the plays and just throwing the ball while Davis is already on flight to get the alley-oop.

Damian Lillard admitted itself that he is frustrated on New Orleans Pelicans defense. His duo CJ McCollum feels the same. Rajon Rondo gets back to his classic defense and offense style just like what he is during his Boston Celtics days. Jrue Holiday literally crashing Blazers defense and he really feels his rhythm.

And if the Blazers main cagers itself are having a frustration like that, they can't able to give confidence to their teammates right now. Better luck next season. Im expecting a close match between these 2 teams but looks like close to sweep.

Cavaliers and Pacers match is just one hour away. I can able to watched all games today if there's no Overtime or will not get sleepy lol.

I really didn't understand how the blazers did not manage to win a single game playing home , even if mirotic and Anthony Davis was amazing during the 3 games but we did expect more competition from Portland . I still think they will win at least one game but Lillard should show up because he didn't show his talent yet .

It's a great playoff game in the east this year.

Cavaliers and Pacersare sure to hit game 7, and the pacers are likely to eliminate the cavaliers into the second round.
The Toronto raptors, who are not good at playing away games, should also play in game 7 of the Washington wizards.

[LastJedi]

Toronto Raptors lost tonight to a poor performing Washington Wizards team.
I would not think they would lose because their past games were blow outs unless they sat out their star players while Washington played all of theirs.
Toronto is up 2 games to 1 so they might of just wanted to rest their squad before winning the next two games to close out the series and move on to the next round.

Golden State or Houston will take home the trophy this year.  There's no way any team from the East will, even though I normally say never count out Lebron.  I am this year.

Golden State Warriors had the bigger percentage than Houston Rockets to win it all this season specially now that Stephen Curry is set to come back in the next round of the playoffs. The Warriors are just too strong and seems to me a well oiled machine.

Cavs fell short again, Bogdan is indeed on fire the whole game. It is quite disappointing for the Cavs since they had good start but cannot  maintain it. Though, The game was so intense especially the last seconds when K.Love shoot that quick 3!. I must say that the Pacers has the highest chances of winning this series or most likely to land a spot in eastern finals. With what I see, Cavs don't have the caliber to win this year. Chemistry is still not there, Lebron are making the most of the offense and he needs an assistance just to balance the plays.

You are right, Cavaliers just don't have the chemistry needed to win a championship in the NBA. There is too much pressure now on LBJ to win this series to prove his claim that he should be the MVP of the season  .

The problem for Cleveland Cavaliers is that LeBron James does not get the help that he needs from his team mates , he can not do everything by himself , Kevin love should do better than this , also poor game from kayl corver with 0 points from multiple 3 points shouts , Jeff green should show up also , it will be really very difficult to the Cavs to win this series but LeBron is the king and he will raise the level of his team mates play for sure .

Likely a repeat especially if steph returns but this season's a bit different. With teams like the bucks, boston and the wolves surprising, matchups have become more exciting. I wouldn't count the eastern teams out for the title as well here. The top four teams are capable of pulling one off over the warriors.

[Vasilije69]

To be honest, I am little disappointed by the Trail Blazers. I predict them pretty easy series, or at least couple wins against Pelicans and yet they will most likely be sweeped tonight.

[harizen]

Ok so for today's game.

Philadelphia 76ers managed to get a win over the Miami Heat 106 -102 (PHI 3-1) . Dwayne Wade with another monster performance although not enough to push for a win.

New Orleans Pelicans sweeps the Portland Trail Blazers via 131 - 123 (NOP 4-0) and will now advanced to 2nd round. Anthony Davis and Jrue Holiday combined for big 88 POINTS!

Minnesota Timberwolves surprised the Houston Rockets via 121 - 105 (HOU 2-1) and erased one of my speculation about sweep (will ready for TT's lol).

Currently watching Utah Jazz and Oklahoma City Thunders...

Wasn't too surprised the Pelicans sweeping the Trailblazers the way they were playing and Holliday was the surprise star of the series even outplaying fellow team mater Anthony Davis from the last game I watch but missed todays.
The major surprise was the young Timberwolves keeping alive against the tough Harden and team of the Rockets.
I seriously thought they were of been swept as well and the series would of been over by now.

Big consolation for the Minnesota Timberwolves to get a win in the on going series. Their first win in 14 year drought. This is an uphill battle for them since the Rockets is very strong team now.

The game was decided in the second half (especially during the 3rd Qtr). This win will be a morale-booster for the Minnesota Timberwolves, and hopefully they can get another win in their next match (on 26th April, if I am not wrong).

It is a bad night for the Houston for that to happen. A lot of difference when it comes to percentage in shooting.
If this goes on then they will be having a hard time to win that 1st round with the Timberwolves.
All have given their good game now. Towns is getting stronger and welcome Derrick Rose, that is how he really plays the game and if he does do this every game then they might really come through.

An upset for the Portland Trail Blazers. Damn Pelicans is really strong.

Yes, this will be a tough uphill battle but its good to see them get a least a win against the Houston Rockets. This win will really bolster young players on the Timberwolves rooster and it somewhat a bragging rights that they are now swept by Houston. I'm sure that next year will be different if the roster will be the same as they have climb and enter the playoffs after so many years. But I don't see them winning the series against Houston though.

[FlightyPouch]

Is it me or its just that every playoffs, betting into NBA is getting really hotter and hotter.

A lot of my friends from work are taking their bets and they are still voting for the 2 teams that get their way into the finals which is Cleveland Cavaliers and the Golden State Warriors. I don't get what they are saying, and also what they believed in but I think there will be other team that will advance forward in the Finals this year.

With Embid back in the Sixer's rooster, he proved to be the nightmare of the Miami Heat. Even with the monster performance of the veteran Wade, it is still not enough for them to take the win. This is really a unwinnable battle for the Miami Heat for now.

Joel Embid's presence is more than enough for the Sixers to gain that confindence that they can beat the Miami Heat. I hope that he will continue to be healthy in the on going playoffs to boost the Sixers chance of going to the finals.
