2024 NBA Season

[milewilda]

Lucky bet for Blackmamba, he won again and the Hawks almost steal this game.
Warriors having a hard time with the Hawks but they won in the end, on the other hand, hawks loss but they easily cover the spread with is over 14.5
Blackmamba is on a winning streak right now, hard not to tail him as he just gave me the first win by tailing his bet.

I won but I still regret because I was planning to make a bet in a winning margin for Raptors which is Raptors winning margin 1-5 If I win it's x10 or 15 something. Too much regret here that I didn't go to with  that feelin. Anyways, my NBA Betting Journey is now 3-0. And for tomorrows game I made a bet in Houston Rocket with a moneyline 2.01 against Milwaukee Bucks  1.88 odds.  I chose Houston Rockets because it's a homecourt advantage for them. Any thoughts about this match?  

Oh well, you've got your first loss here mate, even harden played like a monster again but he didn't lift the rockets against the best team from the east, this is really exciting to watch out, how giannis will lead his team to the playoffs looking forward for them for new competition in the other side of the league.

The ball is round and these things do really happen. I've been tailing mambas bets and this gives really a loss on his streak.Even myself didnt expect for Rockets to lose up or maybe im just confident too much with Harden? lol

Finally we see Lakers that could be great in the future. Kuzma played like a superstar and even tough its still inconsistent and he averages a lot less than what he could be he is still quite young and was drafted low for someone who can score 41 points in Lakers uniform.

You would expect a superstar doing that and that is what he is moving towards. Carmelo Anthony is a guy who used to score a lot of points but wasn't really a good defense guy and that is why he was cut this year, Lonzo is exactly the opposite, dude steals, defends, rebounds and does everything amazingly but has no scoring mechanism at all, he misses freaking layups that a 55+ year old with a beer belly can score.

Josh Hart plays his "hart" out and he has the hard working skills to make him a viable SG one day hopefully and Ingram has been in the league for years now and still haven't shown the progress he should but in couple more years we will know for sure if he is good enough to stay or gone. I love this youth core and feel amazingly happy when they win.

Let us not hope too much that everyone in the current Lakers' roster will be the same for next season. Remember this is Lebron James' team now and as far as I know no one is untouchable in his team except him. With a loaded free agency season he will be looking for star veterans and not young players with potential. He is a aging star and he has not time left to see this young players develop into a team he wants to be 3-4 years down the road. If Kuzma, Ingram, and Ball could all stay I'll be happy for the team but just not expect a championship from them next season.

.Even myself didnt expect for Rockets to lose up or maybe im just confident too much with Harden? lol

With the @2 odds for the Rockets ML, it attracts some bettors to bet on this team. With a 8 wins from the last 10 games and James Harden's continous monster performance with an average of over 35+* points, people considered this as reference.

However, almost the same winning stats is posted by the Milwaukee Bucks in the last 10 games but we all know that media and sports analyst makes the most hype to the Rockets. Also the fact that the game were held at Toyota Center increasing chances that Rockets might take the win.

Story short and moving on... Milwaukee Bucks won and Giannis set a record high of 21 rebounds making him a much strong contender in MVP race.

Remember this is Lebron James' team now and as far as I know no one is untouchable in his team except him. With a loaded free agency season he will be looking for star veterans and not young players with potential.

That is the common statement of those against at LeBron. Speculations after all since the beginning.

Don't buy that mate. We have no insiders here right directly at Lakers room.

I didn't expect the Heat will dominate the Boston, game is not yet over but with 4 minutes left and and the Heat having a comfortable lead, I think it's hard for the Boston Celtics to come back and win. Wade is vintage, he still has that scoring capability, he already had 19 points now at 19 minutes of playing.
Great display for this team, No Dragic but it seems like it's not a problem for them.

Betting on the Heat is easy, looks like the money is on the Celtics in this game.

Miami Heat won Celtics 115-99. Wade scored 19 points in the win. They were hot in the three point department hitting 18 three's. Maybe this is one night wherein we see the old DWade, they also had 33 assists.

Good for Wade, I think he is on his way to retirement but still shows some skills of an MVP.
Lebron is better than Wade in statistics but Wade is clutch, so I like Wade and he could be one of the Hall of Famer in the NBA.
Big win for them, they showed they will bring good competition in the east as they beat Celtics which is one of the best team in the NBA now.

Anyone watched San Antonio Spurs against Oklahoma Thunder? What a classic game! LaMarcus Aldridge dropped a career high with 56 Points, 9 Rebounds $ 4 Blocks on OKC, that's insane. While Russel Westbrick got his 4th career game with 24 Points, 13 Rebounds & 24 Assists. Insane numbers right?

[livingfree]

Is still someone here who can't get over with Giannis quick pass that was blocked by Harden's face? Actually it's still playing on my mind and keep on pressing the replay button. I can't remember on how many times I replayed the button. I'm not making fun of that scene but it got me thinking if it was intentional or Harden's just in a bad position. I'm a fan of Giannis and he's one of the best rookie that I admire but that very small play is trending right now.

24 Assists, that's not normal, any player with a star quality can make 50 points or more but that number of assist is just insane.
Unfortunately, OKC loss in the game despite of WB's effort, and LaMarcus Aldridge is really improving a lot, he is the reason why the Spurs are having a big success lately. Maybe we should include him as one of the MVP candidates, big man with a great shooting skills and now the heart of the Spurs.

If he will continue playing constantly then why not, but if he will play good one night then the next day will be lacking of dedication, maybe he will be far from those constant stars, the game really intense the fans and that exchange rally from both teams really make the game worth to watch, 24 asst from WB might be the beginning of new style from this MVP expect more to come from OKC.

The Heat are good in their home that is why they dominated the Celtics that easily. Vintage Wade as always . They have no all star caliber players but they are playing great right now because of their teamwork and the experience of Wade help other players too. I think having Dragic in their lineup will give them a spot into the playoffs.

There will be more to come from him because he has proven to be an oiled machine, he won his MVP already and that says he has a caliber of a real star. However, what's important more is the team winning, and that stat padding of Westbrook will not earn him respect from the real star if he cannot deliver a win especially against good team like the Spurs.

Well they have Wade which is a real alll star and  GOAT.
This team although not having lot of stars in the team is proving they can compete, and that's their ticket to the playoffs.
I think we can also credit the coaching style, and I believe if Bron is still playing with the Heat, they can still win the NBA Finals.

Dragic in their lineup will give them a spot into the playoffs.

Hoping for his fast recovery, he adds value to the team. Sure, they have a shot in the playoffs if they'll reach.

Anyone noticed the chemistry of Lakers? 

They are getting better at passing and they always knew where their team mate is.
Kuzma getting 41 points for just 29 minutes. 9 players of Lakers played the game and 8 got points on their stats against the strong Detroit Pistons. What's better? Doing it without Lebron and Rondo.
Now they are getting fun to watch specially Kuzma. I am a big fan of this young player.

Westbrook is a beast I am not going to argue with that but sometimes he feels like he gets into a mud and can't get out (forgot the name of thing that you get in and more you move more you sink, sand something). Dude has such a low three point shooting percentage this season that its insane he is still shooting them no matter what.

Spurs on the other hand have been one of the most consistently good teams in the league for the past month and a half because they finally get the much needed roster stability, at the early season when they were trying new rosters and bench moving constantly and injuries popping everywhere it was a bit difficulty, but now they have been playing with the same roster for months now so they got used to it and every player knows what they have to do and got into the "spurs system" entirely.

They all know each other and they all know who can do what and they all know the system and now they are playing accordingly. There are three things that is certain in life, death , taxes and spurs making it to playoffs.

You are thinking of Quicksand. Westbrook is the star of the team. He has to put up big numbers for the team to succeed, Just like Harden. Westbrook did have a lot of assists today though, which is always good to see. He had 24 assists while he scored 24. Only the decision making is sometimes a little lacking with him. Coming to Spurs, Early into the season.. DeRozen wasn't really playing well for them. Took him some time to understand the role for the team. He has more meaningful contributions to the team now as he recently got a triple-double and today just 2 rebounds short of a triple-double. Im really liking the Spurs that I'm watching these days. Aldridge has just taken his game to another level(which I wasn't expecting at all). She's such a tricky beast. League seems to a little more balanced than last few years. At least a few good games everyday.

I also admired how this young rookie played, we've heard a lot from different rookies in the league but this boy have it's own way to be recognized and be noticed, I see him before LeBron's transfer and looking forward to see him improved and with how LeBron treat him there's a lots to expect with this young superstar.

Even Lebron and Rondo are not playing, they are helping these young players outside the court by advising them what they must do inside the court. Well, I wish this will continue so that when Lebron and Rondo come back they will be a lot stronger. I will not be surprised if Kuzma will be an all star player in the next 2-3 years. Good on outside and inside and he is tall that can help the team. If he will continue how he plays right now, he can be an all star in the next years.

Lebron trust him that's why his confident was boosted.
I like him because he is consistent, it's the coach decision to give him more opportunity to shoot and he has not waste that opportunity.
Tonight, they have a game against the Utah Jazz, let's see if he can continue his high scoring, I know it's gonna be tough because Jazz is a defensive team.

You guys noticed that Kuzma is already in the top 10 in the All Star voting?

I guess the NBA and the fans are noticing that this kid is something special and he has a lot of leg room to improved and could be the potential Lakers franchise players.

Of course they are better if Lebron is on the court, but I don't see any differences whether he is playing on the court or not. Just fun to see Lakers and the chemistry they build specially with this kids.

Not yet, I guess he will drop from top 10  because he got expose tonight.
The Utah Jazz just simply dominated them, Kuzma played 36 minutes and after making 41 points in their previous game, he was held for only 11 points today. No 3 point shot made in the entire game and had a very poor shooting at 4-18 from the field.

Clearly, that one game against the Pistorn was just a lucky game for Kuzma because they are playing a struggling team too, unlike the Jazz who are doing well.
