2025 NBA Season

[vennali]

The Miami Heat, with a record of 24-24, are 12-12 at home, 12-12 on the road, 5-5 in their division, 15-15 vs the East, and 9-9 vs the West. I mean, that's kinda funny when you look at the stats. However, they are 0-4 in OT. Heat have got balance in all things.

Nice stats, good thing you notice that one... I have not notice it anymore because what I notice with the Heat is their inconsistency this season, they have some long losing streak, win some games and then will loss again.

I believe its not serious but fans are just disappointed that they are not gonna see Drummond help the Lakers while Lebron and Davis is out. We have no updated news yet, we will continue to monitor the situation, hopefully nothing really serious when the next update will come out.

Drummond said that he got an injury in the first quarter. So, his injury doesn't look serious, considering that he was able to play until the 3rd quarter. It's worth noting that the Lakers already announced that x-rays of his toe were negative, and I guess he will miss two or three upcoming games.

Yeah right! but they are still in good position residing still at number 5 from the east side, might be playing some strategy or some mind games
from the coaching staff, maybe they'll be pushing everything after the first round.

They'll be playing the Warriors tomorrow, might be good for ML @ 1.69.

What mind games or strategy? They are inconsistent and that's that. They are not a super team who can beat anyone or turn on a winning streak whenever they wanted. Their ranking doesn't justify their performance. They could easily go down to eight in the next five games.

Mind games? did you mean they are manipulating the outcome?

I guess heat would not do that, they are still doing everything to ensure a spot, its just that this season is more competitive compared to the past because we have great teams in the East now, to name a few, Nets and Knicks, both NY teams have already improved. Mind games are done only when they are guaranteed of a playoff spot already, they just look on what team they will face in the 1st round.

I agree, they are very inconsistent, they are games that it's winnable for them, unfortunately, they forgot to close it and let the game slip away specially in the 4th quarter. Although some of their losses, the team is not complete. But with Jimmy back in the line up, I do hope that they will regain their form from last year.

Nice catch on the stats though.

Good enough just to ensure that he'll be there when LeBron and AD are both healthy.

They've got a tough competitions to beat in the west before meeting whoever contender from the east, Drummond can bring them
the help. With the healhty Lakers, this team still competitive and hard to beat when they are all playing solid and in good conditions.

They should let him rest and prepare for games that are needed since they can enter the playoffs, that's the most important thing, they just need to secure it, and make a run there, they should have let him rest for a while, that's too much excitement on the lakers front office and coaching staff, that's the mistake all teams do, over excited, let him rest for a while to adjust.

Drummond is a valuable asset on the Lakers, they cannot just risk him if he is feeling some injury, a rest is important but what matters is they also watch their standing and just ensure they will be in the playoffs, Lakers rank at the last spot does not make any difference them rank at first, they will still beat any opponent in the first round.

Even with the fact that the Miami Heat had been inconsistent with their games they are still ranked 5 in the East.
They are not safe though as Knicks and Hawks are just 1 win away from them.
Keeping that position is crucial. They don't want to be in the play-in tournament and still have the same inconsistency while playing for teams that are on the lower seeds.
Ranks 9 and 10 will do everything to have a shot for the playoffs.

This season we are only seeing few bad teams, hence the competition is tighter and teams that has not been in the playoffs for a while might be in the playoffs this season. In the east, only Detroit Pistons has a very poor chance of qualifying in the playoffs, while in the West, Houston Rockets and Minnesota Timberwolves might not be able to make it this season.

NBA power ranking report.

https://www.cbssports.com/nba/powerrankings/

*Keep in mind that our Power Rankings are based on the team's performance the previous week, not the entire season.

1, Nets
2. Jazz
3. Bucks
4. Clippers
5. 76ers
6. Suns
7. Nuggets
8. Trail Blazers
9. LA Lakers
10. Mavericks.

I only take the top 10 in the ranking. Liking the Jazz and Nets as they stay consistent, whiel 76ers also have some great performance despite missing Embiid. 

[Jating]

How about Magic winning against the Pelicans? Yeah, Zion W. and Brandon Ingram didn't play, but it was really a tight match and good game that it went into overtime. I thought that Pelicans has a good chance to take this W, but Magic, after Aaron Gordon's trade has been winning very close and tough matches.

Miami takes the win against GSW, although Curry hits two consecutive 3's and make coach Spoelstra nervous. Miami on a 3 game winning streak, and just a shy above the .500 mark with 25-24. Don't know if they can repeat last year's performance as the East team are bunch and it's very close, Nets, 76ers and Bucks leading the Eastern Conference.

I'm surprise that they won against the Pelicans, but knowing the star players did not play, I'm not now.

Miami will come back, hopefully and GSW needs to start winning again, they can't be out of the playoff race if they want to have a chance to be in the playoffs this season, curry their main man has to be healthy for them to succeed even at a lower ranking as long as its a playoffs rank.

[Reid]

I only take the top 10 in the ranking. Liking the Jazz and Nets as they stay consistent, whiel 76ers also have some great performance despite missing Embiid. 

Yeah, I watched the 76ers a lot of times trying to analyze how they can still win the game without Embiid.
There is actually a simple answer. The floor had been spread more unlike last year.

With Danny Green and Seth Curry being a threat in the 3 point field, Harris and Simmons can move freely and attack the paint.
Howard stats is the best product at 18 points and 15 rebounds against the Cavs. This team is for sure a championship contender, better than how they are against the Raptors losing at the lucky shot of Kawhi.

lots of competition in the west, unlike the east that is wide open, west with the rise of the jazz and also with clippers and lakers with Dallas slowly going up, the golden state will have a hard time although they might make it, I think they should not push too hard since they all want to be healthy once Klay return, I think they will not make it this year if they did even make it, they will be eliminated in the first round.

Well, the Sixers could've a shot at the NBA finals this year If the Nets didn't modified their roster into a more stronger line up.
They (Sixers) have a good player rotation even If Embid misses a few games and I was ready betting at them all the way to the ECF. Everything's changed when the Nets are obviously trying to have an easy way to get a ring.
Anyway, the Bucks, Heat, and the Sixers have still their shot at defeating the very stacked Nets team.
This season isn't a good season by the way, because of the injuries.

It looks like Nets are the most favored team now to win, no team can beat them in the East, and even the current Lakers line up, people still think that a healthy Nets will dominate them. I hope they are wrong, I like to see a good match up in the East and the West and does not like the Nets to dominate in the East, at least take it to game 6 or 7.

I will never count out LeBron, but he’s gonna need to do something special to take down this Nets team. Aldridge went off in his debut tonight with a nice little streak early on. His teammates were stoked. If he’s playing like this and Durant comes back healthy, they’re the best team ever.
