2024 NBA Season

[gagux123]

First Nets and now 76ers. NBA becomes unpredictable once again. Hawks will play against Bucks. Giannis versus Trae Young.
Trae is confident with every shot he made while the 76ers cannot find their offense. There's just one thing the Hawks have to do, put pressure with Seth and Embiid. Harris was not helpful at the last minutes of the game like there's a lid at the top of the rim. 76ers should do something about their big weakness if they are keeping him, Ben Simmons.
Danny Green's lucky charm is not working anymore. 

Absolutely, in my opinion, that's the one of the most unpredictable seasons in the NBA.
I would have never imagined that the Nets and Lakers would be eliminated in the playoffs quickly and they were favorites to win this season
Another detail was the numerous injuries during this season, which made the NBA even more unpredictable.

If every player will be safe until the end of this season, maybe it will be the Suns who will take the throne.
Booker is in his prime and he gained a lot of confidence thanks to Chris Paul who has been a great effective veteran to teach the young Suns.
With Ayton also gaining experience he is becoming a big threat under the rim. The Clippers can't just leave him there because I'm sure he will get more offensive rebounds or others will if he can position a good box.
I think that is why Booker had a triple-double thanks to Ayton's success in boxing out.

I would not overreact though, this is just one game, if you know Ty Lue's plan, you would not be confident that the Suns will win. I read somewhere that the plan of Ty Lue is very obvious, here's the pattern.

Vs Dallas - loss first 2 games, won the series.
vs Jazz - loss first 2 games, and won the series.

No one thought of that, but because of the injury suffered by Davis and Lebron is not 100% healthy, then it's already predicted that they might lose in the first half. It's only unpredictable if they are all healthy and yet they lose in the same passion the Suns did to them.

If they are all halthy then we might see different outcomes right now, just like what happened with GSW before KD left them, if they didn't have that injuries the chance of winning grandslam is very possible, they are the heavy favorite back then as the rotations of the ball between Curry, KD and Thompson is really hard to stop.

But injuries hurt them, same with what happened with Both Lakers and Nets which was the heavy favorite this season, AD and Lebron is not healthy playing in the second round wile kyrie suffered in the senis of ECF.

Now we don't know the outcome we can assune for our favorite team but it's not an assurance, this 4 remaining teams do deserve it, whoever win the title they win it with a pride!

[OgNasty]

I'm liking the Bucks chances to go all the way at this point.  I don't think they'll have any problem taking down Atlanta and I think the Suns will have problems containing Giannis in the Finals.  With Kawhi Leonard possibly out for a while and Chris Paul set to return soon, I don't think the Clippers have enough to contain Booker and Ayton.  I'm shocked at how well Ayton is playing in these playoffs.  It's possible he'll shock me again and shut down the lane for Giannis, bringing my hometown team a much sought after Finals win.  I'm not sure I'd place a bet on that though.

Yeah but both games involves kawhi leonard except on the last game or 2. Phoenix is a very strong and solid team right now just like the bucks. I will be happy to see them against Bucks in finals though. I don't doubt about Paul George but the all star rookie player is really on fire that's why they beat Lakers.

[LogitechMouse]

What a game, Paul George and Booker exchanging shots, but booker continue scoring and making plays for his teammates, Ayton dominates the paint area, this will be hard for the clippers since Leonard is injured, I think the suns have the edge to make it to the finals, but if Mann will play the like the game 7 with the jazz, this will be exciting.

We didn't see CP3 in Game 1 but it looks like that he is there because we saw Booker making perimeter shots like what CP3 is doing. High screen roll then drive and then shoot at the perimeter which is still unstoppable and we saw that in Game 1. Suns won but it isn't a huge gap. This is a close game still and that shows that both teams are really matched.

First the Jazz, then the Nets and now the 76ers.
I thought that this is the season where Embiid and Simmons will be going to the Finals but it seems like they aren't ready for it until now.
Who to blame with the loss of the Sixers?? Ohhh I forgot they got a coach who choked in the same round when he is still in the Clippers and he is consistent till now, putting his team to a second round exit again.

Sixers needs to either trade Simmons and get a Point Guard who can shoot better free throws and can shoot threes or they will get another scoring machine.

It's been a miracle for the Atlanta Hawks to reached up to this point so no matter how the series will end, I'm sure this will be not easy for both teams since the advantage of both teams are chemistries and skills of their players. I'm hoping to see more up to game 7 series since this is the NBA Eastern Conference Finals. Bucks on the other hand has been battling throughout the NBA playoffs to reach this point, if they win this series, they truly deserved it.

IMO, it's not a miracle. Trae and his teammates worked so hard to reach this far though they might have an easier bracket than the Bucks and Nets bracket. The Celtics or the Heat might have been a tough opponent for the Hawks.
Let's just see how the Atlanta Hawks perform against a much stronger opponent. The Nets should've been easily the toughest in the East If not bugged with injuries.
I'm kinda excited for this series, I'm expecting a surprising factor from the Hawks.

[mirakal]

I wouldn't say that the Suns have an advantage, considering that the Clippers have already proven they can win without Leonard. Regarding Paul, there aren't new updates about his current condition. So we can only assume that he will be able to play in game 3 or 4 of WCF.

Hmmm, that's true. I think, I expressed myself badly, but anyway I believe the Clippers were weaker without Kawhi Leonard.
I think if the Suns can "annul" PG, it will be another "advantage" for the Suns, and I hope CP3 come back to Game 3 or 4.

In WCF Game 1 we saw, Booker was on fire and wants to be champion.
About Clippers, PG played as expected, DeMarcus Cousins scored 11 points and played "only" 13 minutes.
I think this WCF will be interesting!!

This series might go to game 7, just like a normal series, the home team has the advantage but eventually the Clippers will adjust and we might see that in game 3 as they are usually good at home.

Today we will have game 7 of 76ers vs Hawks!
Who do you think will win?

I thought the 76ers will win but I was wrong, Ben Simmon IMO was overrated, can't be trusted in tough situation, Embiid needs some help from him.

Who you guys think will win the championship? Who should I put my money on?

You should not ask here since every people here has different preferences. You should bet base on what you feel and never rely on people's decision for your own money. Check bookmaker odds on sport betting website, just base your best on odds if you want to bet safe though.


But if I will choose, I will go either on Phoenix or Bucks. Don't take my pick seriously though.

Since jazz is out of the picture well my bet will go to Bucks for winning the champ this year since if you compare the roosters among these teams we can say that bucks is more dominant among them, But we cannot predict since its early  to tell and maybe other teams will find ways on how they can outscored  the bucks on their match.

I'm impressed with the Hawks these season since out of nowhere they reach this far and they have chance to take the title.

Strongly agree. He is different, he have a real goal now. Booker already proved himself in last year's bubble. 5-0 in play-in tournament but they didn't have a chance to make it to the playoffs because of rankings.
Now, it's Ayton who is making a big change. I like how he is calm under the rim. He doesn't even fight even when he was being bumped too hard.
CP3 is a big impact to them. They will just let Jae Crowder do the fighting for them. 
Anyway, I am seeing Ayton to put big numbers like double-double every game until the end of this Finals. No injuries, fingers crossed. I'll put my props for him at 23+ points and rebounds.

Bucks are the favorites now because they beat the favorites in this season. Maybe they'll have an easy journey against the Hawks but I'm sure the NBA finals will be tough for them, especially if a team knows how to play defense against Giannis, it would be better if Leonard will come back and they'll win the WCF as we know how effective Leonard is on limiting Giannis.

Is this the ranking on most sportsbook or this data just come on the most popular sportsbook? Either way, I believe the odds of Bucks and Sun's is almost equal by the time they will face in finals. Betting each game might give a good profit since the result of each game can be an alternate base on the homecourt advantage. Game 6.and Game 7 will be the real gambling IMHO.

We have some light on the Clippers fans.

Leonard is out indefinitely but he is still not out in the WCF.

With this current update, https://www.cbssports.com/nba/players/playerpage/1715792/kawhi-leonard.. hopefully, he will be able to play in game 3.

Clippers' Kawhi Leonard: Will not travel to Phoenix
by RotoWire Staff | RotoWire
Leonard (knee) will continue rehabbing at home and will not travel with the Clippers to Phoenix for the start of the Western Conference Finals, Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports reports.

This essentially rules Leonard out for the first two games of the series against the Suns, but it's still in the realm of possibility that he returns for Game 3 in Los Angeles. However, there haven't been any updates on tangible progress for Leonard. In the meantime, Nicolas Batum, Marcus Morris and Terance Mann should continue seeing increased usage.
