2024 NBA Season

Read fully the article guys.

Giannis was mentioned because of the flow of the discussion. Their topic isn't about Giannis but the status of Dallas Mavericks this season. The "White Mamba" just says that "in case" the Greek Freak considers leaving the Bucks, he should go to Dallas and not with the other team. He also explained in the article why and it does make sense for me honestly.

Let's not be serious about that statement. He just shared his own view. He is an analyst in the first place. We all know that Giannis doesn't have any plan, at least for now, leaving the Bucks organization.

I believe that Giannis is going to spend the rest of his career with Bucks.
He has no reason to leave Bucks and it seems that he is really happy at Milwaukee as well. Now that his brother Thanasis has joined the team it is more hard for him to leave.

I believe that Giannis is going to spend the rest of his career with Bucks.

I believe the opposite bro, today's generation of NBA players, there's no such thing as loyalty in the team, all they want is a championship.

He has no reason to leave Bucks and it seems that he is really happy at Milwaukee as well. Now that his brother Thanasis has joined the team it is more hard for him to leave.

Take a look at the career of AD and LBJ. Both of them were moving or teaming with other stars for them to get that championship ring. They are willing to take a pay cut just to get their objective.

Believe me, after 3 seasons or more and if nothing good happened to the Bucks, Giannis will move to another team, a championship caliber team.

I think that situation is not that simple, it  will depend on how Milwaukee performs this season. This is what he said few months ago
"I want the Bucks to build a winning culture," Elberse and her co-author, master's student Melcolm Ruffin, quoted Antetokounmpo as saying. "So far, we have been doing great, and, if this lasts, there's no other place I want to be. But if we're underperforming in the NBA next year, deciding whether to sign becomes a lot more difficult."

So despite Bucks being able to offer him $253 million extension next year, he is not 100% certain that he stays there.
So far Bucks are doing great, they have the best score in the league, but IMHO everything below conference final will be underperformance.

Calling on the OKC backers here, there will be an upcoming game tonight against the Lakers who just dominated the KP less Mavericks.

Are you still willing to take a ride against Kings James team?
Probably still no Davis but Lebron could play, so you are willing to take risk against the FAKERS, I mean the LAKERS?

Hey! I am here and I will not gonna miss on betting that game although they are not really my favorite match up.
I am putting my little money for the OKC to win, at least double digit, so I would look line to increase the odds, probably, win by 11+ points or 6+/

In sportsbet, the odds for OKC is 1.95 and 1.89 for Lakers. This means that Lakers is just a little bit favorable against OKC. And since the difference is small, then I guess I rather place my bet on the team that is on the roll. The Lakers is current in its 7th winning streak. There is no reason they'll stop their streak right now. I believe Lebron can carry his team to a win against OKC.

I thought so too, since the difference on their odds is slightly small I would also be favoring a much stronger team which is the Lakers. I don't mind lossing this match since I will only bet with minimal amount.

Good luck to everyone, I bet on the OKC here, they might not have a long winning streak but they are beating good teams like Rockets in their last game, so they have a great chance of winning against the Lakers here too, and the fact that Lakers are playing a back to back game, they might gas out.

OKC versus Lakers is probably due to Lakers being without AD because he is injured and because OKC have been on a good roll. There is a reason why OKC is 7th in the west and Lakers is the first, Lakers normally is the clear better team and even in that scenario there is a chance OKC could have beaten a fully healthy Lakers as well but this way it is certainly a lot easier. Hell I would say OKC has a better chance now due to Lakers being without an inside man that is great whereas OKC has Adams that could potentially get a lot of offensive rebounds and help out OKC as well.

Hopefully, it will be a very entertaining match to watch but I won't wager on it, it is too risky, Lakers with AD? Easy bet, without AD? Very difficult. Plus, OKC has been on a great roll but this will probably end somewhere as well.

Yeah OKC might have the chance to beat Lakers on their game. With the absence of Anthony Davis, surely is the Lakers is a little bit vulnerable to lose this game. I mean they have a lot of big men but Davis' addition is something else. I really hope that Howard might make a difference again in this game just like he was doing at their game against the mavs. I really like Doncic btw that game. By his desire to destroy LeBron James, he wrecked his jersey to show his anger. In that way, you can see his passion in basketball at the age of 20. And by means of his age, he's just 20 dude he can be immature at some time.

 Have you guys seen the twitter feud between KD and perkins? KD is literally like a child man, whenever he is called out dude literally sells out whoever was with him and attacks everyone around him instead of actually being supportive. Even KD has to know that there is a reason why KD was booed on his first time coming back whereas Westbrook got a standing ovation and a welcome back video. Dude put the team on his back for years after KD and still took them to playoffs every single year whereas KD just jumped ship to a 73-9 team and basically got a free ring in return. I am not going to argue about the 5 year thing all the same once again however KD can't just go arguing about what he brought to OKC versus what Westbrook brought.

He's frustrations only dictates how he really wanted to be more competitive especially when you are playing with the so called King of this generation.
Luka is indeed still young and his passion with this sports showed how he react, that kind of frustrations is normal when you are trying to prove something
but the outcome is not favoring what you wanted to happen.

Even without Lebron the Lakers are dominating the game.
Kuzma and Rondo are in good condition making 20+ points already and Kuzma almost at 30 points.
I guess it is because Lebron is out, Rondo became a real pointguard again. 

14.5 spreads though. We might win this when garbage time comes.

[Reid]

Love watching Dallas against Philadelphia.
Two point guards going at each other making good plays.

Simmons might be lacking the shooting ability but still he is in good numbers now at the 3rd.
Same goes for Luka bringing his magic plays.

KP though is a large missing piece for them. The huge impact of a tall man shooting threes scares the hell out of the team they are against.

TF. Cleveland won against Denver Nuggets at home advantage. Another great win for Cavs. This after Tristan Thompson records his careers high vs Piston.

LOL, now Cleveland is trying to beat good team also, and this would make them on the nba headline today, for sure.

They are 2 in a row now, and their next schedule is the against the Lakers, if they can still win, then I don't know what teams they can't bet.

I placed a bet on the Lakers to cover the +8 as I thought they still had a chance to cover the spread but I didn't expect them to blow OKC out of the water. I didn't make them a pick on my sports pick thread as the line shifted into +7.5 but on my Twitter I did as when I posted the pick the Lakers were still +8. I knew the Mavs would bounce back after two loses, they are yet to lose 3 games in a row this season. I'm liking the Raptors and Clippers today.

[Captain Corporate]

 No AD, no Lebron, No danny green, no problem with Lakers. OKC actually did play not that bad at all, their floor general and currently best player is CP3 and he was guarded by Rondo, rondo is one of those people who has the highest bbiq I have ever seen along Lebron (weird they are both in the same team) and I always remember that play back when he and cousins were in kings and played against hawks and how Rondo guarded the last second shot by sending cousins to corner where nobody was by predicting what game hawks were about to play. Rondo just closed down CP3 with the same mentality by knowing whats going to happen before it happens, I am sure he is a great chess player as well. If you can close down the best player of the opposite team, there is a %90 chance you can beat any team, like if you can guard Giannis, rest of bucks can't carry the team too much, same happened with OKC, if you have CP3 playing badly, you will beat them %99 of the time.

I can remember the fight between CP3 and Rondo, now Rondo prove CP3 he can compete with him and beat him.

good thing they didn't fight again, LOL... but hey, let's talk about the Lakers offense, isn't it better when all of them are scoring?

Very disappointed in this bet, I was thinking that OKC could easily handle the Lakers without James and I actually put my bet when Lebron was not announce not available, so I got a good line. I will still bet on them in their next game, Lakers are just lucky and maybe OKC was just too complacent.
