Pretty cool stuff with the season just has gotten underway

LeBron James, Luka Doncic make NBA history with opposing triple-doubles
No two foes had ever both topped 30 points, 10 rebounds and 15 assists

Both these players are superb during their match up. But the last laugh was on James thanks to D.Green's three that save them for OT. Luca Duncic will surely have a great season ahead of him together with his European teammates.

That was Green's heroic shot in just a dying seconds, it wasn't wasted because they won in the OT.
I can also see a good future of Doncic, he won as the ROY and now he improve a lot although he was already playing with another star.
This boy respects his teammates and that's one reason why Dallas now has become a very good team.

15 assist and 13 rebounds is very impressive.

Well, Doncic out there breaking/making records.
He is by far the best rookie since Lebron. In his 2 years in the NBA he could already carry a team, a thing that I have never seen since Lebron carry the Cavs early in his career without an allstar.
It's going to be expected, Luka will continue to break records in the future. I can see Luka and Porzingis an upgraded version of Nash and Nowitzki from the Mavs.

Both are building chemistry. Lebron and AD in Lakers and Luca and KP in Dallas.
You cannot foretell what will happen. It will still depend on their performance. Plus, the Dallas had been doing great since KP was added to their roster.
They won against Wizards, Pelicans and a strong Nuggets team. I think that gives them credit for some to bet for them. I did.

Lakers is a strong team but that doesn't mean they are invincible. Any team could win against them. Let us see it when they face the Spurs next.

Agree with you, both teams are on the jelling process while LBJ and the Lakers may have the advantage because they are the veterans, the Mavs for sure will improve and as i see they are one of the team to beat in the west. Luka and KP are still young, they will stumble and fall along the way to superstardome and they will have their fair share of heartbreaking games where they are on the losing end and that game is one of them.

They are still young but they showed their good chemistry already early in this season, and the good thing is that chemistry is not only within them, its within the team. Maybe this is the benefit the team will get if they have a young stars that leads their team because they are humble and always look up and respect on the veterans within the team.

Maybe this is the benefit the team will get if they have a young stars that leads their team because they are humble and always look up and respect on the veterans within the team.

Maybe, and we are seeing a big improvement of the team already, despite they loss but they are playing in a winnable game.
Dallas now has 2 loses and both of these loses are close games which means they could translate this to a win next time as they continue to improve and learn.

That was a clutch shot by Green. I thought it was a MAVS win already but the kick out from LeBron was perfect. Respect for Green, his performance this season is exceptional.

The MAVs still needs to improve protecting their lead and closing out their game. They had a 10 point lead early in the 4th, but they let the Lakers catch up to them. Maybe one of the disadvantages of a very young team.

I think the Mavericks are still very young. They still have a lot of room to improve on that area they are lacking and closing out games is one of them. The whole team of mavericks did a good job with this game they gave the lakers and lebron a hard time winning and forcing an ot. Experience beats talent on this game.

[Bttzed03]

Kings got their first win of the regular season against the Jazz. That's a good win considering the Jazz team are quite stacked.

With how things are going with the Warriors who lost again by double digits, they (Kings) might even finish up higher 
(just kidding of course but wno knows...)

This season will be the best to get such good experiences, each team just need to enjoy it (of course we nba fans as well) as this season is really unpredictable. Like what you've said this game showed up that experience beats talent on this game. In short a legend vs a future legend.

A 20 y.o Luka Doncic who've made 10 triple double. AFAIK he's the only one who've made that before to get 21.

Ahhh. Good stuff. I love it when both team are giving their all just to win the game. That just means something for the NBA.
Forget about the softness for now but the entertainment this two gave just so the audience will be on their feet for every exciting minute of the game.

Green was just too much. He really proved how clutch he is. So does Luca. Man, that kid really gives me the creeps. He is so young but he could really match up with the stars of the NBA.
Dallas wont let go of this boy. They got their new Nowitzki now.

Philadelphia’s Joel Embiid and Minnesota’s Karl-Anthony Towns were suspended two games without pay on Thursday for their roles in a physical altercation during the third quarter of Wednesday’s game.

So both are losing their power player on the inside and both can do three point shots. I guess it is just a tie.
This two can lose 2 games because of what they did.

Tomorrow 76ers will be against the Portland Trail Blazers. I bet they cannot maximize their offense because of the Embiid suspension.
Considering how good the Portland at the offensive line it will be an easy win for them and also there will be no problem below the rim.

That shot was the biggest that game. That saves them from going home depressed of the result. Since that was a close game and they'll just going home because of a miss three if that didn't go in. Danny Green put the team's weight onto his shoulders and carried them at that shot. I start to love Danny Green since the first game of the season in which he stepped up for the team even though they lost that game. Anyway congrats to the team for getting the W and forcing the OT. And also to the two guys who step up that game, LeBron and Luka. After that game, there was a post in FB saying LeBron said "You're a bad motherf***er" to Luka.

I agree, they have the lead almost the entire game, did play good however, they have some loopholes on closing out the game. I thought that they are going to cruise and win the game. They have the lead in the third then Lakers come back, then they did the lead.

But in the last four minutes of the 4th, they simply melt down and then Green to tie and in the OT the Lakers took over.

I have watched the dallas-la game and I feel like the dallas situation can't be sustained for too long unless it is addressed. It was so obvious that Luka was trying to play like a superstar, we all know he is a superstar in the making or even a star right now but that doesn't mean he should be playing like one when he has a teammate who is also another star.

If you stop giving the ball to KP for too long eventually he will want to move to a team that is either successful so his absence wouldn't be for nothing or move to a smaller team so he could get his shots up and get paid. In the end all of these players at early age do this for money, sure they like the game and all that but money is important and KP can't afford to be the second guy who gets 10 less shots than he used to if he wants to get paid.

Maybe Luka thought that he can out duel James here, that's why he did try to play like a superstar, but James has the last laugh at this clamped them down in the OT, just allowing them to score 7 points. And James is not ready yet to give Luka his time here.

Hats-off to Green as well, hitting that 3 in the corner to send the game into overtime.

LOL, you shouldn't be blaming the guy. He's on fire that night and it's obvious for him to take almost all of the shots in the game. Luka gained a triple-double and all he can get from you is "trying to play like a superstar" or "Thought he can duel with James." That's not it, even players that are superstars even tried doing what Luka did. They gave everything they had, they somehow failed on some part of a game, and then all they can get is contempt and harsh words from us. This is how players in the NBA live every day.

[batang_bitcoin]

That buzzer beater by Green saved them.

Great fake he did on that shot he made. Also, nice assist from the king. Despite of the less time they have, he managed to have a calm mind and found Green for that OT shot. Let's appreciate the performance of Luka guys, he made well also on their match.

[vella85]

I'm liking the Magic to cover the spread tonight, they let me down last night but I think tonight they cover and even win the game but I always take the spread as its safer then ML. I'm going to play a small parlay with the Magic to cover, Suns ML and Warriors to cover.

Right, Luka did played very well and even Lebron James acknowledge that. The guy is still young and I'm sure this kind of experience (with a lost), will make him a better player in the next coming games. Green says that James really read the defence on the tee that's why he has all the time in the world to hit that three sending the game into OT and a win for him.

Well I hope you had the Magic +4.5 or else you lose.
Magic fall short behind just four points. I personally thought they'd make it to overtime, they might have a huge chance to win if they have forced it.
That's a good performance anyway, despite the fact that Jokic wasn't scoring in the paint during the 1st half of the game.
