2024 NBA Season

[Ziskinberg]

It's already 2 games, we can't expect more on Randle but D Rose could still give more.

Expect in game 3 the defense will be a focus on DRose, on that matter, Randle might be free up a bit and that would make the game interesting. At least the Hawks now know that it's not only Randle who will lead the team, DRose experience is very useful here, and in fact, he gave the Knicks one win.

In an interview, DRose was happy and he said he really wants this kind of opportunity, he misses the playoffs and now he is giving everything in this series.

What a game, first playoff win for the Knicks for so many years.

There are a lot of videos going around showing the crowd after that win, Lol, it was crazy, just imagine if the Knicks won the NBA title this year.  . They even shouting that they want their rivals, the Brooklyn Nets, that will be an awesome showdown. But Knicks still need to take care of business, its just 1 win and expect the crowd in Atlanta to be hostile to Randle and DRose same thing they did to Trae Young in Madison.

I hope it will not reach the point that someone will be hurt, a battle of trash talk is okay, it's normal in sports but there should be a limitation. We will certainly enjoy this series, I have a feeling that it will reach to game 7, and Knicks winning one game in game 3 or game 4.

Physicality is part of the game highlights so I really exoect this will happen on their games since this is a big game to them which if they play cool and lame around they will be drop then eliminated in the contest. But im not ok if there are player will be injured in the game since it really eliminate the excitement if this happen we will have an idea if who's gonna win.

I also believe that knicks will bounceback on their next game.

I'm happy for Rose to be back in the playoffs, I just hope that those injuries before will not bother him again, the last time I saw him I thought he's going to retire but because of his love for the game, he pursues and battle those injuries over the years, this is an opportunity for Drose the prove that he has still had gas in his tank and can bring the team to the east finals and give any opponent a good show.

How bad is this Knicks team?
In 22 min the starting 5 getting outscored again by own bench 12:29 , just pathetic.

Why doesnt take coach take ANY action here?
Randle 15min on the court, made 2 free throws and missed all his shots.

13/43 for the whole team.

Thats a clear sweep right there.

It's a long game as it played out.  You don't bench Randle for too long.  He is one of theain reasons knicks are so good.  He gets doubled which leaves shooters open.  Ride or die with Randle I have no issues with this leaving him out there.

Honestly Knicks do look better than Hawsk for sure, they do not look like they will be a title runner, no team that loses to Hawks would be that much threat to championship and they do not pass the eye test neither, they are very good and they will 90% win this series as well but I do not see them beating Sixers, or nets or bucks those three will probably be the top three and one of them will go to finals for sure.

On the other hand Grizzlies are playing better than expected, remember these are the same guys who finished the league on 9th seed and got into playoffs, surely nobody expected them to beat the first seed but the series is tied and they are giving Jazz their moneys worth so I think it is definitely something I like to watch. Tonight will be a huge game, Lakers need to show dominance if they want to take the series, otherwise they may end up with a big upset.

Ban him from all the basketball court of NBA. Now that he deserves and not WB being thrown with popcorns.

It looks like the 76ers already announced that they revoked a fan's season ticket, and this dude also will be banned for all upcoming events in the 76ers arena. And I agree with you that other teams should ban him too because it would be a good lesson for him.

Used to remember those fans and players from New York who hated MJ and Miller, I believe that it's just an emotions for loving their team and not to extent to the level that someone will got hurt.

Fans will always shows their love with the players and teams that they are idolizing, expect also some a like once the game went to Atlanta
where crowd also show their support for the Hawks.

Let see how Trae young will showcase his heroic athleticism.

Well, they should. The crowd audience must understand that there's a hard consequence for any inappropriate actions or behaviors and NBA should be sensitive to that as it's risky for any players. There are lots of what-if's here and the first thing is, what if "it's NOT popcorn" or something that Westbrook encounters.

Just like what happened in the famous "The Malice at the Palace" where commentators blame the audience for entering the scene and there should be no brawl happened in the first place.

That organization has to protect the player although the fans are very important, they need to ensure safety as no fans with the right mind would do that. There's nothing to be offended about on that game actually, Sixers were already dominated Westbrook's team and still not contented?

Banning from watching NBA games would surely teach that man a lesson.

Hi guys, will share my bets for today:

Heat - Bucks: Bucks x1.83: My bet
Lakers - Suns: Lakers x1.36: My bet

Today there are very interesting matches, as several teams are important to me, so my choice again falls on the favorites of the matches.
The Lakers have finally shown that they have found weaknesses in Suns, also Chris Paul's injury has had a very negative impact on the outcome of the meeting, so today the choice is pretty obvious. I really hope that the Lakers will have enough strength not to throw the game.
Last matches Heat didn't feel the enemy at all, and in general I absolutely do not like the roster for this season, they sold too many important players, so my choice for today's match unconditionally falls on Bucks. 

[JEFE92]

Jazz - Grizzlies: Jazz x1.25

76ers - Wizards: 76ers x1.29

Straight bet? Is it worth for you to stake money on that line of odds? Just wondering that there's someone willing to risks money on a small payout in return. The chance is high though to win but in case of loss, that was more regretful compare losing in an over 1.8 odds.

Goodluck mate on your bet and I see that you are happy with that kind of betting.

Bro, I bet for fun, so I do not consider bets as my monthly salaries, as this is an unhealthy thing imo. Therefore, I do not take particular risks, and even at low, but confident odds, I raise a small penny XD. Plus I'm interested in the opinion of other guys about my choice.

That's good, bet for fun so you'll fully enjoy the NBA. At least you understand the risk and does not think that betting on small odds or high favorite win will give you an easy win. Anyway, congratulations as you have won both picks.

Today, we have a lot of exciting games.. Suns vs Lakers looks easy to predict, but I would not call it easy for the Lakers.

Call it another easy win by the Lakers, unless CP3 will come back fully healthy, which is unlikely.

With the Lakers' defense, we saw what happened in game 2, that's the Sun's home court and yet they struggle to score.
As the Suns will adjust, the Lakers will also adjust as they know where the offense is coming, Booker is quite limited so far, and Payne might not be as effective as he was in game 2.

If Milwaukee win again tonight and make it 3-0 I expect them to sweep Heat, but I think Heat will show some resistance this time. First game was pretty close but in second game they got destroyed. This is their last chance. I'd say this serie will finish 4-0 (if they lose tonight) or 4-2, either way Milwaukee will go to next round.
Other 2 games are different stories, much more balanced teams. Anything can happen in third games, Lakers and Blazers are closer to win though.

The Bucks are leading at the halftime 49-36, Butler is giving everything he got to win this game because they don't want to be sweep by the Bucks. Someone from Miami needs to step up and help Butler, Bam only 4 points, Nunn 2 points.

Hard to predict those two games, But Lakers seems to find their rhythm in Game 2, and Chris Paul is not 100%. While the Nuggets readjusted and put Gordon on Lillard. So let's see how the game will go.

The news came out that Chris Paul will play again and I hope it's for good.
It's not well last time as he cannot move well or even shoot the ball in good form.
I'd like to support the Suns on this. Show the Lakers they didn't make it to rank 2 just because of CP3 but because of their chemistry as a team.

I want to see Ayton put more effort inside even with Drummond and AD protecting it and put more numbers on that stat sheet. Don't let AD have a rhythm or it will be a bad ending.

He is back, but still with limited minutes, but the good thing for the Suns, they are competing pretty well against the Lakers. Hopefully, this is another close game with more minutes and production for CP3, I just want to see a good game as Heat vs Bucks is kinda boring.

Chris Paul looks better as compare to game 2 and hitting his favorite fade away shots, so that's a good sign that he is improving, so good job from the Phoenix Suns trainers.

Ayton still doing good against AD and Drummond in game 3, Lakers just lead 3 in the halftime. Still anybody's ball game here until either one of them exploded in the third quarter. But I'm expecting a very tight race, both teams didn't shoot well, evident of the defense.
