2025 NBA Season

[wheelz1200]

We are watching a pretty good match-up, Hawks vs. Knicks. While Knicks use all players Hawks only rely on Trae Young and John Collins for scoring. It's good to see Derrick Rose back to play-off mode despite all these injuries. He looks focused today. Hawks defense looks pretty weak, they gave away a lot of rebounds. It's still head to head game, we may even see an overtime here. I'm expecting a narrow Knicks win for this game, they looked better.

That will be the end of the Knicks hype. What a terrible game by randle and the other starters.

Outscored 64:41 by the own bench. Whole bench has a positive +- while every starter has a negative one.

Good bye in the 1st round.

I think quite the opposite.  Randall had his worst game of the season he usually dominates John Collins.  And it still took a floater with .9 seconds left to lock it up.  Don't think Julius is going to throw out 3 more straight stinkers like that one.  Bullock was way off too.  I'm pissed but if the Knicks looked great and still lost I'd be worried.  Still got the Knicks in 6 on this series not wavering from that

Memphis just outsmarted the Jazz. I don't expect this to happen again in the series.

I expected Knicks to put little more effort in defence. Trae was outstanding however. I see them going to game 7.

The Knicks defensive effort was great actually.  It was the offense that sputtered. Between Randle, rj and bullock they went 3-17 from downtown and shot terribly inside the 3 pt line too.  A lot of hesitation not seen in the reg season as well.  They will hit the video room and clean that up.  I like the Knicks in game 2 here

I agree, the defense is there, but they have horrendous shooting night, while the crowd mock and disrespect Young, they didn't know that Trae was in the zone and that clutch winning drive, dagger!!!

I do hope that Knicks will bounce back in the second game, they don't want to a 0-2 deficit, against a dangerous team. And with Trae Young putting in 110% efforts, it will be a close game again on game 2.

Bucks with a huge margin now against Miami 20++ in the second quarter. They burn the hoops with 3's in the first quarter.

Very bad night for Randle at that time. He can't find his shooting rhythm. He shoots one then misses the next.
I hope when that happens someone will step up or he should think about not forcing it. He's huge and he can do more than just shooting outside.
Post-up game or just freaking drive it to the rim.

Trae Young winning shot made him a big threat to the Knicks now.
It's his playoffs debut and yet there is no sign of stiffness.

It's just so satisfying to see when the trash talking backfires.
I don't understand why the fans were mad with Trae Young. I mean he's still a very young talented player, he doesn't deserve this hate. He still have a long way to be on the path of the villain like LeBron and Durant did. So, I guess the hate is pure nonsense, just because he's a threat for the Knicks that gives the dumb*ss fans the authority to talk sh*t and chanting like an uneducated dumb*sses.
Trae Young's playoffs debut is an unforgettable one lol.

I appreciate Trae for being professional as usual, fueled with motivation from the trash talking fans.

I confess that it was also gratifying for me to see Trae Young "shutting down" Madison Square Garden.
He is proving that he is an excellent player and has a bright future ahead of him.
I bet he will come "on fire" in the next games !!

By continuing what he's doing now and makes more big time shots,

He's going to earned more respect than hate after, now those fans are very upsets since it's the first time Knicks went to the playoffs after that long years of missing this opportunities, it's just a loving fans emotions and for sure Young knew about it and use that hate as inspirations to keep fuelling the team and feel the completions to the its next level.

How about the Milwaukee Bucks today?

Looks like they don't gonna give any chance to the Miami Heat this time. they won the last 2 games and managed to give Miami Heat the worst game in the NBA playoffs today.

Yeah, they won the second game also. They were both home games for Milwaukee of course. I wonder whether they will keep up the great work away also. By the way, Giannis had another great game. He made a double-double (31 points, 13 rebounds, 6 assists).

Great win for them. The 3 point shot will really the big difference in this game for the Bucks.

Miami went into the finals last year and beat them 4-1. So definitely they don't need to sleep on them as they can still come back from 0-2 deficit. Game 3 will be crucial for the Heat, they are now desperate, so for sure it will be a good match at their homecourt and I wouldn't be surprised if they get a win.

Nets vs Celtics first game. I think Nets will start very strong in the first half as they don't want to play catch up against the still dangerous Boston team.

Durant and Kyrie and Harden should really pour in and score just like what the Bucks din to Heat and then play good defence down the strength. At least they have a good cushion instead of like a said, trying to get back at 3rd quarter. If this scenario happens, Nets could easily covered the spread.

Too much firepower from the bucks in the 1st until 3rd quarter of the game the heat unable to stop the barrage of three's, if the bucks will be like this in the next 2 games it will be over in four games, supporting cast are lighting it up, and the heat doesn't have any answers while Giannis is muscling his way into the paint.

Too much Bucks in this game. 10 three pointers in a quarter and a 26 point lead to start the game. Its just complete domination by these team.

Looks like they've adjusted to what happened last years where they got dominate by the Heat. TBH, I completely underestimated the Bucks at the start of the season because of their roster compare to other championship contender teams but looks like we can include them in the top picks on winning the title .

On the other game, the Nuggets came back and win Game 2 128-109.

It's not just about Giannis and Middleton anymore. All the players in the Bucks team are trying to make a contribution.
Jrue Holiday is a rising star and with wingmen like Pat Connaughton and DiVincenzo their team is now a complete roster with outside and inside offensive strength. All they need to do is work the magic of chemistry which they already showed. It's difficult to find a weakness to this strong team.
This series could end up in a sweep if things will go out of hand, Heat needs to find a way to win one game and boost the confidence of their young players.

[Dave1]

Forbes and  Pat Connaughton really contributed and help Bucks seal the game. First quarter alone, Forbes shots the lights out of the arena and then it was team chemistry that really sink Heat on the last 2 quarters. They could really sweep the Heat with the way Butler is playing. It seems he doesn't want to score and settling down on assists. Unfortunately, if his team is not shooting that good then they can't win the series against the Bucks. And if Dedmon is the leading scorer of the team, then there's something wrong.

The bucks build a good lead and the heat was not able to come back in the game. This is the first time I think Bucks would win against the heat, they already had a 2-0 commanding lead, if they can snatch 1 win on the road, this is gonna be over in game 5.

you know who is the key factor, it's Jrue Holiday.

Acquiring Jrue Holiday is really one of the best decision this franchise did, he  got 15 assist today with 11 points and 7 rebs.

Bucks brings the rain inside the house, making 22 converted 3 point shots, Heat don't have any answer when Pat Connaughton start
taking the shot not sure if that 3x  in almost same spot.

No doubt if Bucks steal a win on the road this series will finished much earlier.

That's because of a good ball movement,  Bucks did pretty well moving the ball, they don't rely only on Giannis so they are less predictable this season. Miami Heat should adjust, they can win against the Bucks if they are playing a lousy basketball, Bucks might sweep them.

Lakers vs Suns Game 2.

What's your pick here, will the Suns take a 2-0 commanding lead or Lakers will even the series?
No injury report for all-star players, Paul had a little injury in game 1 but he is probable to play in game 2.

[Joca97]

That milwaukee first quarter was something else if anyone watched. So many three pointers they destroyed miami heat in the first quarter and finished the game already at start of the game.

Lakers losing isnt something i expected in this series so we can expect a win in the next match from them.

True, I was surprised when I see the scoreboard,

it was 20-46 in favor of the Bucks, at the back of my mind, I already thought that Heat cannot come back anymore.
In fact, they did not win a single quarter in this game, it was a complete domination by the Bucks.

Lakers losing isnt something i expected in this series so we can expect a win in the next match from them.

Good luck bro, everyone might be riding with the Lakers and bron/

Bucks Start the game with real solid attacks, they managed to overpower the Heat and they
didn't gave any chance to for any rally to come back and bring the game into something.

I like how the coach gave full authorities to each players to take the shot, the confidence really
gives  them the advantage  winning this game.

With your Lakers pick for sure LeBron and Davis will not let this series to passed without a fight..
