2024 NBA Season

[Naida_BR]

I believe we cannot see a real basketball during all star, it's just an exhibition game with lack of defense, I'm sure you will see a lot of dunks and a good display of 3 point shooting from the best shooters beyond the arc.

This is literally NBA!
Dunks and 3 point shooting is what makes NBA exciting. If you want to see defensive games then watch Euroleague. It is full of fouls and strategies that they stop the attacking endeavors of the players before they even start. Of course, the players would be more cautious because no one wants to be injured during a basketball fest.

Not only our votes but the majority, they select this particular line ups according to the results

They do, perhaps I want to see how the status of voting now if it already started, it would be nice if we can see it online so we can also vote.
Never voted in my entire life about this event but I never miss also watching the all star games since it's very entertaining.

.....and though we do have our different sets of players to be on the list, but always the majority will take it, we just need to enjoy as players have their own fans and have their own little ways to entertain us, hope
to see not an exhibitions but a real game where talents will excite us, same like when all star games are really a matter of pride..

I believe we cannot see a real basketball during all star, it's just an exhibition game with lack of defense, I'm sure you will see a lot of dunks and a good display of 3 point shooting from the best shooters beyond the arc.

Meanwhile, I just saw a post that the 2 curry, are participants in the 3 point contest, this should be fun.
coming from this post https://www.sbnation.com/nba/2019/1/27/18199339/nba-all-star-dunk-contest-3-point-skills-2019-participants-updated-list

During the all Star games it is all for entertainment and of course the players will do their best to avoid injury during the game. Dunks and three point shots are for exhibition so the fans will amaze on the show.

Well you can't blame the guy. He's been carrying this team his entire career and he only gone so far as the playoffs. There's been a lot of hope back then when he teamed up with boogie but we all know things didn't work out well then. Any superstar of AD's caliber would want to seriously contend for a title of course.

I'm not a fan of the team captains for the all star game.  They should go back to East vs West and let the fans vote for all of the starters.

Yeah I'm also interested to see more of East vs West, anyone has an idea on what's the criteria for the chosen players? What I mean there are some players that are worth to be part of it but hasn't taken a slot.

I guess it's coming from the media and the fans, it was divided into percentage but I don't have the complete procedure of the process.
You maybe think there are some players that are worth to be part but unfortunately, it's not our vote alone that will matter, it should be the majority.
We only say it based on our opinion but like i said, it's the majority of vote will win.

Well it's true that it's not our vote but I just feel like this all star match is very different from the usual all star match that we use to watch before.

Change is really the constant thing in the world. Any sportsbook that has good odd on this match?

Your vote matters as much as the media vote. I mean if you vote someone into the all-star there is no way they can keep them out, the media and the players usually change the starters and so forth but unless someone like ZAZA gets in on the vote usually it comes to similar results, that is why the media and players vote is called "the Zaza rule" because once upon a time all of Georgia voted for Zaza to be in all-star and they had to put him in even tough he didn't deserve it at all.

That is why I like the fan vote to matter a bit to put people into all-star contention but also like the fact that media and players put the real ones after that, it doesn't allow another Zaza deal to happen. Look at the all-stars this year, they are all worthy people on that list and we can't really say they didn't deserve it.

They should give. They should offer anything, with the exception of LBJames. It's the great opportunity knocking on the door. AD is only 25 years old, would still have time to become the main star with the eventual retirement of LBJames. And for AD is also a great opportunity. He would play on a team that would probably play the next 3 conference finals.

Even if do cost some members currently on LA its good to see AD on it.This is indeed a great opportunity and i cant really blame if AD didnt tend to have an extension on Pelicans and as been
said he's been carrying the team on his career and he might realize that he would like to go outside of the cage.

It's gonna be interesting as how things with AD turns out. It looks like Lakers is the front runner for now and I agree that it will cost a lot of those young players like Ball, Kuzma, Ingram. Any of those 3 will be the bait so let's see how things pan out. Also take note the AD and Lebron have the same agent.

Obviously, there are a lot of teams interested on AD. I read that New York Knicks is also keen on getting him as well.

If I were to decide, I will let go of them for AD, you know what AD brings in the floor and the Lakers will suddenly become a championship team.
The pressure for the opponent is guarding the inside because AD will surely dominate and Lebron can drive to the paint, that will leave the outside shooters open and with no pressure since anytime he can also pass the ball inside.

Any of those 3 will be the bait so let's see how things pan out. Also take note the AD and Lebron have the same agent.

I'm optimistic that this time we will see a good news for the Lakers, I miss watching them in the NBA finals, warriors time should be over.

But if AD wants championship, he should be wise to team up with the KING>

Another dominating win by the Warriors: 132-100 against Indiana Pacers.

This time its Steph Curry's turn as he scored 23 in the first half alone and finishing with 26 points. Cousins has his most dominating performance as a Warrior with 22 points for himself. Although Pacers misses the services of Oladipo (we all know what happened to him).

Warriors 11th straight win, who's gonna stop them now?

I remember Pippen saying in one interview that GSW will start to pick up the phase after the All-Star but it seems that have started already.

[Questat]

Warriors 11th straight win, who's gonna stop them now?

I think no one, unless they will rest their starters but It seems unlikely now that they are in the winning streak.
With 11th straight wins, it explains how good they are and perhaps they are planning to make a history again which I think
they are capable of doing it.

Don't bet against term now, they will continue to win, they are in the good streak so ride with them.

What did I just watch!? The Denver nuggets were down 25 points going into the 4th quarter and managed to come back and win the game.
https://www.denverstiffs.com/2019/1/28/18201445/recap-nuggets-win-grizzlies-beasley-buckets-baskets-big-victories-airplane-mode
The last time they did something similar to this was back in 1981 and it was down by 21 points to win.
The Memphis grizzlies were up in the first quarter 35 to 17 and I thought it was their game forsure watching all the misses and turnovers Denver were making through out the whole game.
Nuggets sat out Murray as I saw him on the bench in a suit so they had the joker Jokic as the leader this night and even he stunk for the first half and only started scoring in the second half with 5 points and got 16 points in the entire 3rd quarter.

I was watching this and closely monitoring the live bets inside sportsbet but failed to assess, I was thinking that Grizzle really dominated the game till the 4th quarter start, nuggets outscored Grizzle by 20 points 35/15 poor defense and lack of communications.

Grizzle needs some adjustment, they were the dark horse before, they need to reassess and if needed trade players for regroupings.

I would of liked to see the odds of them to win it when they were down by 25 points. Must of been over 14.25x odds on live betting being in memphis and being down by this much since the beginning.
It was the hardest 1.4x odds I ever had on a betslip before and thought it lost at the end of the first quarter.

La Lakers. They are really getting better at their chemistry without Lebron. 
How about Lance Stephenson?!! His style will make you watch the game more and more just to see what cool move he will do after he creates a good shot.
That 3 point where he is running back for defense after his shot. He dont need to see it. He knows it will shoot and then that guitar move.
Really loved it.
And then there is Ivica Zubac finishing the game with a fantastic stats and a double double. 24 points with 16 rebounds. Just really amazing.
They should be given more minutes.
Congratulations to them again.

They are not because they're record without Lebron is not good.
Ivica Zuba might be the new discovery because he is a smart player on the court, I'm afraid that he will give more minutes
than Javale, because Javale though has improve but sometimes the "shaqtin a fool" is still in him, if you know what mean.

I wonder if any sportsbook will have a "where will AD go" type of bet? I have seen similar stuff in fiat currency sportsbooks and most give the better odds to Lakers but I haven't seen anything like that in crypto world. It would have been interesting to see if that were to happen. I mean think about it AD is one of the biggest superstars we have in our league right now and wherever he goes, and I mean WHEREVER he goes he will make that team a lot better.

Of course, he wouldn't wanna go to a team like Suns for example since it wouldn't make sense but even if he goes to a team like Sixers, raptors and so forth they could suddenly become a contender and if he goes to rockets that would mean a very very bad news for warriors. However since he got Lebrons manager, its more likely that he will go to Lakers.

It is up to Pelicans of course since its not free agency and AD can't pick the team himself and needs to play wherever he is sent but Lakers could give Pelicans some good young players as well. I wonder after this trade who will be left in Lakers.

Lakers has a lot of players and they could get a new fresh young that can be train.
As long as they have Lebron and AD, everything is good, this team has a chance to beat a  team that is full of stars.
This is getting more exciting now that AD wanted to get traded, the drama will continue and people will just start to speculate.

I will check on my sportsbook if they have the kind of betting you mentioned, hopefully it will be up soon as the trade deadline is approaching.

Yeah! I also heard the rumors that Davis can possibly trade to Lakers for exchange of Ingram and Ball (I just saw an edited pic of Ingram and Ball wearing a Pelicans jersey so I'm not really sure about this). If this happens then no doubt that Lakers's roster will become stronger but the question is, "Will they have a very good group chemistry?". The best example is when Leberon, Wade, Rose and Thomas play in the same team but didn't work out.
