What a great start I saw in the NBA today, Lakers vs Boston have some classic match up and it ended up really an entertaining game. Tatum goes for 41 points from an losing effort but this young man has showed he can be better against a good team like the Lakers, last time it was the Clippers. Anyone here think Celtics are a championship contender this season?
Yes of course they are a championship contender team since they fought the Cavs in the 2018 ECF. Though they lost to a more experienced Cavs team with LeBron leading the team, but they showed how good this young bloods are. With Walker as an addition, I think they are ready to go against the Bucks or the Raptors in the ECF in the playoffs. Tatum is a future hall of famer, and Jaylen too. They will be a big surprise in this coming playoffs, hopefully they'll win the East and beat the West Champ. Boston deserve to be in the NBA finals and to win, they have been working hard for their team to succeed and now we are seeing them improve just like the Warriors in the past who are getting better as a team. Tatum, Walker, Brown, and more, they will compose a championship team, if not this season surely the following seasons.

Some great odds for later games without handicaps. Wizards (home) @9.00 vs Bucks Knicks (away) @ 10.00 vs Rockets T'Wolves (away) @7.80 vs Dallas The demon of me is telling something again. Allow that demon to dictate you , lol.. I will even suggest that you parlay all the heavy underdogs so you will get a total odds of 702.$10 at least for a minimum, you'll get at least $7000, good luck mate, do it fast. lol That Wizards vs Bucks game was something else. I think many lose a lot of money from here. It was just a 3 point deficit win from the Bucks. They may have input handicaps for the Bucks. Well, I didn't win any of those games but still it was fun specially the Wizards game. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) I just put a little bet in it. Yeah, a gamble as we call it. And the worst aside from that Pacers' horrible performance, one of their player, Jeremy Lamb suffered a season-ending injury. So unfortunate.
A good contributor for the Pacers team. They may need to recreate their plays for this loss. A bad news indeed but they are still on the 6th seed at 33 wins while Nets at 7th with 26. They could still arrange everything for change of plays.

Amazing performance by Embiid on a win against the Hawks, the big fella scored 49 points along with 14 rebounds in this win. So to those who are asking if the which player the management will pick between Him and Simmons, here's the answer.

But what will happen if Embiid will be lockout in the playoffs? I know a player who can do some good defense on him and that is Gasol, they still need Simmons though, if they will trade him, maybe not this season because I still want to see how the Sixers will take their revenge against the Raptors.

There is no doubt who would Philadelphia management trade if they have to choose between those two, but I seriously doubt they have the balls to do it after so many years of tanking (even though I think that would be smart thing to do). Another issue now is Simmons getting injured in that loss against Bucks the other day, and it is uncertain when he will be back, and how serious this injury is. When Philadelphia made roster for this season, they kept in mind Embiid and his history of injuries, and Horford signing was in a way contingency plan in case something happens to Embiid, but what they didn't cover is proper Simmons replacement. Let's hope this injury is nothing serious and that he will be back soon, so far he missed only few games in his first 2 seasons.

We can check the latest update of Simmons here - https://www.rotoworld.com/basketball/nba/player/30296/ben-simmonsI think the injury is not that serious that requires surgery, and I believe he will be back in less than a month.

Not sure about that since Harris is there to help and provide stats even without Simmons but I agree with you acquiring Horford is a good contingency plan since Embiid base from his previous history is very prone to injuries. The last time selection almost went to the finals if only that miracle shot by Kawhai did not went in. For sure the management will do the best that they can keeping both Embiid and Simmons to keep their competitiveness from the east side.

I have still the same opinion. They won't trade any of these two. I think they are wise enough to make this guys to ripe and then after that they could take on a championship game. They are almost there. Simmons is also trying some new training circle and we are actually seeing that. Embiid though is a different story. He is improving fast. He also tries to be serious now instead of being a clown which he did last year. 76ers management may already be aware of that.

IIRC, this game was all about runs by each team until the game was close in the 4th quarter especially in the last few minutes. Leonard has the ball to take the last shot if that did not fall it's going into OT but that was really a lucky bounce and that melted the hear of the Sixers. This is way better than the East finals actually, I want to see them again this season.. at the expense of the Bucks, lol.

We can see that, what they just need now is a good chemistry, they all have the talent and they are still young therefore it's expected that they will improve. Sixers ain't no shitty team anymore, they have become a threat in the East and a good championship contender.

Simmons is one of the best on the ball point guards in the league. Yeah he cant shoot a 3 for shit, so go out and surround the team with shooters then. Not everyone on the team needs to be a deep threat. Who are they honestly going to get to replace Simmons that makes the Sixers better. Not much out there to be had.

It could happen. Since Ben Simmons is already a threat to penetrate the paint then he will just need more threats outside. Sharpshooters is a must. That way, Embiid could also focus on mid range shots and post ups. But, we could see their roster in not filled with that yet. Korkmaz and Harris have the highest attempts and both are near 35%. Harris though is like a switch in 3 points. On and off.

I am not sure what is the rank of the Sixers in terms of 3 point shooting as a team, but I believe they are not in the top 10 as their offense is more focus on the inside, if they only have Reddick, they could have been a big threat in the outside but Horford would not land to the sixers, it's really hard to choose but I believe they prefer to have this kind of play right now, besides they are doing pretty well at home.

I still do not understand why people think Ben Simmons is a start that makes so much difference to that team. Dude is a 16 point player with ZERO three point talent and just scores around the rim all the time, he has some rebounding and assist talents which I can understand why makes him more valuable but this dude was compared to Giannis when he first came into the league and was wondering which one would be the next Lebron.
Giannis now has an MVP and leading the first seed as the best player whereas Simmons is not even the best player on his own team. Even if the dude misses the whole season I am sure Sixers would be fine, not saying they will go to finals or anything without him but they can achieve almost everything they could have achieved with him now, he is not THAT big of a deal if you ask me.

They had a great memorial for Kobe Bryant yesterday, I still can't believe that dude is gone, like not for a while, not retired type of gone, dude is gone forever, he is dead. There was a lot of tears, a lot of laughs and a lot of shared good memories. Kobe showed everyone how you can be so different as a player and as a human, he thought us to differenciate the athlete from the player, dude was hated as a player because he ruined so many teams chances in NBA and beat them constantly whereas he was loved as a human because he cherished basketball and was always willing to bring it to next level by supporting the new players outside of the court. I hope he and his lovely daughter Gigi will be in peace together.
Embiid also had a beast game, dude literally had a 49 point game as a center and in this era that "bigs are gone" type of talks happen and guards/wings getting all the attention I think it is cool to see that if you are a good center you can still score a lot and get the ball a lot as well. Jokic and Embiid is probably the last players reamining that can carry their teams as the centers, usually it is another position that is the star of the team (doesn't mean there aren't other good centers, they are just not their teams stars).

Amazing performance by Embiid on a win against the Hawks, the big fella scored 49 points along with 14 rebounds in this win. So to those who are asking if the which player the management will pick between Him and Simmons, here's the answer.
I have still the same opinion. They won't trade any of these two. I think they are wise enough to make this guys to ripe and then after that they could take on a championship game. They are almost there. Simmons is also trying some new training circle and we are actually seeing that. Embiid though is a different story. He is improving fast. He also tries to be serious now instead of being a clown which he did last year. 76ers management may already be aware of that. Yes, I don't think the the management is willing to put anyone of them in the trading block. If they can still deliver then why change the winning formula? Both are doing everything and trying to improved their games, maybe they are not the best in the league, still Lebron and Davis combination, but Ben and Joel are there in the top as well.

I am not sure what is the rank of the Sixers in terms of 3 point shooting as a team, but I believe they are not in the top 10 as their offense is more focus on the inside, if they only have Reddick, they could have been a big threat in the outside but Horford would not land to the sixers, it's really hard to choose but I believe they prefer to have this kind of play right now, besides they are doing pretty well at home.
Sixers are currently somewhere in the middle, they have 35.2% for three, that makes them 18th out of 30 teams . When it comes to 3 pts attempts, with 31 attempt per game they are 22nd. When you look at their EFG % , they are average to below average team (52.9%, 19th spot ). For example, they are 23rd when it comes to FT (only 75%). They are among the best when it comes to defense and of course rebounding, due size of their lineup. Thing that annoys me with Simmons is that he is obviously not willing to work on his shooting, as he didn't improve at all in those few years. How can player that plays his position have only 62% FT this season? Hell, even Shaq who was ridiculed for that had 62% one year (with 52.7% career average). Very interesting game tonight, Bucks coming to Toronto after that overtime win against Wizards last night. I am slightly leaning towards Raptors tonight, but it's hard to bet against Bucks when they play so good this season.

I still do not understand why people think Ben Simmons is a start that makes so much difference to that team.
Maybe because Sixers was a worst team prior to Embiid and Simmons's arrival. The team never taste a playoffs experience for 5 seasons until Simmons came to play (he didn't play on his first season because of injury). It's not that he is the reason why the team rose up but as usual, becoming a Top 1 overall pick always comes up with a good expectation and in fairness, he didn't fail to meet those and played well the whole season. From a trash record for several seasons, Sixers finished with a good record on that year. Dude is a 16 point player with ZERO three point talent and just scores around the rim all the time, he has some rebounding and assist talents which I can understand why makes him more valuable...
Good thing for Simmons that he is not forcing himself into something he is not capable of. Although yes, in the future he really needs to work on his rainbow shot while he is still young as athleticism fades over time. ... but this dude was compared to Giannis when he first came into the league and was wondering which one would be the next Lebron.
I don't know that Simmons was being compared to Giannis during his first year although not a good comparison for me. Other people just putting too much hype on a new player, as usual, every year.

Me either, Simmons has to prove himself that he could carry a team to win, and maybe nominated to be a regular season MVP at least. The way I see it, Simmons still needs some big improvement before he will be compared Giannis and basing on Giannis Improvement, its not impossible that Simmons would improve his 3 point shooting.

Is there a chance that Stephen Curry will leave the Golden State Warriors?
He's locked for Golden State Warriors for 5 years and I think the last time he's signed the contract was 2017. He's one to have the highest contract and I don't think that GSW will set him free even the contract expires. He's like the Kobe24 of GSW. Contract will expire in 2020 per https://www.spotrac.com/nba/golden-state-warriors/stephen-curry-6287/A player that is given a max contract won't leave a team, unless there is a conflict inside the organization, and so far, I haven't heard anything like that. Based on the link given, its not 2020 but 2020 2022 yet its a 5 year contract since 2017. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F23pGGlY.png&t=665&c=wvKjDFPVHHr54A) Dont hear about news on leaving the team and i dont see a reason on why he would do such thing. Thanks for that verification that his contract is still until 2022. I really don't see that he's leaving and there's no point for a rumor like this. Just because the GSW isn't doing well for this season? they can get some help again and reshuffle their roster if they have to.
