2024 NBA Season

That buzzer beater by Green saved them.

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

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.

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.

Hat's off to both teams.  Doncic proved where he belonged going head to head with LeBron the entire game. The kid's going to go a long way. With the right attitude, He's likely going to be up there along with Dirk as one of the best players from Europe. Bron showed tremendous leadership as well especially during late game. If we continue to have games like this both from LeBron, AD and the lakers, the West playoffs would be really interesting.

Another game went on the line between Philidelphia and Blazers. The Blazers lead all night, as large as 21 points only to be snatched by the sixers on the dying seconds. That clutch 3 points by Korkmaz with 2 seconds left bagged the win for the sixers. Sixers are still undefeated with 5-0. It is impressive that they have won without their star center Joel Embiid.

What's more impressive is the Pistons winning over the Nets. I can't believe that the Nets will lose to the undermanned Pistons. No Griffin, no point guards and they still managed to upset the Nets.

Nets are overrated, they won't be a contender without Durant, and Pistons although undermanned they are still a good team as they don't heavily rely on their stars, and in this game, they are playing at home, so that's their only advantage but since Nets are inconsistent, things like this happens and I am not surprise anymore.

They beat a good team which is the Rockets and now they loss to a bad team, they are really unpredictable and I don't like to back teams that are unpredictable as they might have a problem inside that affects how the players contribution to the team.

Another loss for the warriors, this time against the hornets. I don't think this warriors line-up can even make it to the playoffs. No superstar to play today because of injuries, even Russel is not around.

Hornets is already one of the worst team now, warriors are even worse now that curry was out.
Warriors keep losing like this, I think the Fans will be upset, Curry won't be back soon, he will be back months so it means months of struggle for the Warriors.

Just forget them at this time, let's focus on other improve teams like the Lakers and Clippers, and not to mentioned the Sixers.

Without any stars to help them up the chance is too small for them to reach even playoffs. The team will take a break for a while, same with what happened with Miami and Cavs after Lebron left them. There's a need for GSW to have an additional player to help them if they are still interested
to reach the 2nd round. After the all-star week it will be a deciding factor whether they will stick to this line up or get someone to help them.

Somehow it is a good thing for me. Being unpredictable and then winning against strong teams.
All they need is to reach the playoffs.
The Nets are in the East so it can easily be done although I am not doubtful with other teams which also have chances to get a spot. It is just that, when faced with a rival they can lose it.

What I mean also is they are in the West, which is fully packed with power teams.
Again, the Suns crushing the Grizzlies. If you look at their numbers, the points are distributed fairly.

GSW seemed to be cursed. All their stars are out because of injury. It is just a bad year for them. I bet no one can enumerate the starting line up of Warriors in the Hornets game from memory.

Is this about Kyrie Irving being labeled as the problem for Nets? I do not think he is a problem but he still needs to prove that he can lead a team, inspire his teammates to be more than what they are right now.

That's what I was saying about from the start of the season " GSW won't make it to the playoffs"
Even with Curry and DLo in the line up I still doubt them.
 Now, Half of the team were injured, this will save them from embarrassment from being an invincible team to a huge turn around.
Curry will miss half of the season, coming back and fall behind 8 spot is a very hard mission to catch up.
GSW dynasty has officially ended. There will be a new team in the West who will play in the NBA Finals.

Irving holds the ball too much that he doesn't know how to involve his teammates. This is the problem too with the Celtics that is why they got lost to the Bucks 4-1 and this will be the reason too if the Nets will lose in the playoffs if they can clinch.

To be honest, they're too overrated for me. Durant can't play this season so they will rely much on Irving but that is the problem with him (he doesn't know how to pass). Yes there are times that he pass but most of the times he doesn't. He must adjust his play style if he wants to be a leader with this young team. Just my opinion.

The underrated team right now for me is the Suns. They don't have an all-star player (Booker isn't an all-star but he can cope up with other all star players) but they are doing well in their first games and they also defeated Clippers with Kawhi.

Yeah, probably we will see GSW not even in the playoffs because of the injuries, specially from Curry. I'm not saying that we wish them bad this season, but other teams are going to step up specially Lakers, Clippers, Houston. I wouldn't say that the dynasty though has ended, maybe next year when the team is full and healthy again, they might content for the finals again.

Did someone watched the game of Detroit Piston against Chicago Bulls yesterday? I mean it's Derrick Rose and it's his hometown. He get's standing ovation from Bulls crowd to chicago return, that feels of how much they love D. Rose and a sign of comeback in chicago continue and end what you've started on us.

It's not his fault. There is no bitterness to the fans of Chicago.
They loved him for taking them to the Finals and almost getting that trophy again after their last with MJ.
But he needs to show what he is once again. He is still young and got a lot of future ahead. He can now jump so high again but for now it would be for perimeter shooting.

Could the trade for DLo be forfeited because of the Curry injury? Probably.

It was a win for Dallas if they use their foul to give! I think that was really a big blunder on the part of the coaching staff of the team. If they only foul Lebroke at the time he hold the ball, then, its all been over!!

Indeed, wise coach will maximize types of advantage like this, though we don't know what's really behind last play, but there's a lots of lapses from that last play, Howard holds Curry and it's noticeable can't find any reason why the ref would not call that foul. But moving on, Lebron have a high
night from that game playing like the same old King, showing Luka and Kristop that he still got it.

Yeah that always a do we or dont we play.  Up by 3 and defending straight up or foul right away.  I dont think the odds are much different each way.  I would always foul in that instance though and hope they cant execute a foul shot and a miss shot and the rebound.

Sounded like a Lebron hater.
I dont like him but I dont hate him neither. I love other players than him.

Cases like that happens and that depends on the coach on how he will react in an instant. It aint a simple job specially when in those kind of situations.
Mostly we can see their errors but they cannot while the game is being played. That will be seen in the tape afterwards. So let us not give all the bad thought about their coach.

Another new challenge for Los Angeles Lakers tonight when they face San Antonio Spurs in At Center, both teams played 5 games, they win four and lost one and both teams have a great performance and both teams lost their one game against Los Angeles Clippers ! It will be so funny game to watch, as a supporter for Lakers I will bet for them to win this game.

You should know that Derrick Rose only loves the city of Chicago not the team itself. Remember that they are the ones who lost faith in him that is why he got traded away which has started him to become a journey man in the NBA, his injury ruined his career but the team itself ruined his heart. I doubt that he will return to the team without any kind of organizational changes for the team, remember that when Coach Thibs left the team and went to Minnesota he was quickly recruited in there to play, and he was really the one who he is chasing. Without him or any kind of familiar face in the Bulls I don't think he will be wearing their uniform any time soon, maybe in his retirement or so.
