2024 NBA Season

[Inagame]

I’m only now seeing today’s news about crypto.com being the jersey sponsor for the 76ers this year and releasing a line of NFTs. This is so crazy. Crypto has come so far it’s hard to believe. The overall industry has really thrived in a limitless environment. No doubt a lot of basketball fans will be buying crypto to get NFTs just because of this brand deal.

I think it all started when some famous stars like Steph Curry purchase NFT, frenzy starts and now many NBA clubs like Sacramento Kings have their pages in Open Sea website:

Story out now from Stephen A Smith about how the Nets were going to trade Kyrie for Ben Simmons and call him on his retirement bluff, but KD stepped in and said no, squashing any potential deal. Kyrie is lucky KD has his back. Hopefully Kyrie understands now that he isn’t #1 or #2 on that team. He’s a step above role player and needs to start acting like it.

KD must have understood how useful Kyrie's talent was to the team. They were together in the playoffs and they dominated their opponents while Harden was resting due to injury, and probably he thinks that Simmons could only be a liability to the team, especially during the playoffs, however, in the end, it's still the management decision that will be followed.

Honestly when he has his head on his shoulders kyrie is as dangerous as anyone in the league.  Dude can score from any angle and creates all his own shots.  Very twitchy and hard to defend.  Problem is dude is a monster head case.  He can leave the team for 2 weeks at a time for some unknown reason.  Can't rely on a guy like that. Then there are the injuries.

Yes, I can't imagine how bad the Nets position will be if suddenly one of the trio stars gets injured and Kyrie will be in his emotional breakdown again.
With Harden left or Durant it will still be difficult just being a 1 headed monster. Having two or three will still be better than one shouldering all the offensive need of the team.
Last year was Harden's injury, what caused it maybe also from fatigue because he does it all. I am rooting for Mills to increase the energy of these guys and share what he learned from Spurs with Pops.

Mills experienced if being used by Coach Nash may bring good impact,
this dude can act as role player who takes good care of the ball and keeps the rotation for the trio,
while if given a chance, he can also shoot with high percentage accuracy.

Forgetting all this drama and move forward to start the season. KD needs to become the leader that he should be,
now that he has the Nets, who will mostly depend on him to take over.

Kyrie and James, together with all the role players, need to acknowledge their alpha to have better run this season.

We have only ten days left for the pre-season games to start! I've already missed the regular season and the playoffs a lot. I don't usually watch pre-season games. But I see that we are going to have a really awesome game on Oct 3, Brooklyn Nets vs Los Angeles Lakers. I wonder if we will be able to see the usual starting five for both teams. If we do, then I will definitely watch this game. It can be a really delightful one and I would like to just enjoy watching the game.

Mills is solid.  He is the perfect Ayer ypu want on your team that already has star power.  Always loved his game, true professional.  Need those people on a team that know their role and play to it.  That's how these "super tes" win.  Otherwise it won't work. Ehem Lakers.

Probably not.  Especially with the Lakers.  With how old they are the less minutes they run in pre season is more they can run in reg/post.  You will see a lot of guys fighting for 12th-15th spots on the bench plus your rookies.  It's like a suped up version of the Vegas summer league.

If you are not betting, then obviously, you will not watch the regular season. But for bettors it' s important because they will see how his favourite team is doing and then can gauge every game as who is will win, what will be the handicap or if a team can make an upset, hence underdog bets. Teams changes or rotates their starting five in the initial phase of the regular season because they will have to experiment a lot and find the perfect line up. I'm sure though the starting game will be one of the most watch NBA opening season game.

They are all back! Steph, KLAY, Draymond and Andre' they are all part of the good era of warriors, now that they are reunited again the chemistry and that winning attitude will force everyone to work with them, they are now to be considered for the title contender, Coach Kerr just need to balance everyone.

The supporting cast are also better now, with Wiggins, Porter jr, lee, Bjelica, Toscano-Anderson they got fresh legs when the starters need some rest. Can't wait to see how they'll execute their offense to be their defense again. I love seeing all of them keep on moving until they find the right open man to take the shot.

Calm down mate . Yes they are a great team but we are talking about a player who will return after nearly 1.5 years of not playing a game, a player who was never seen as great player (wiggins) and Draymond that got old and yes he was never stats guy but he got worse on defense as well (much better passer though). Curry is the only one that is having a great time, all the others started to be bad or have risks to be bad. Andre Igoduala also got way too old as well, and the bench players may have fresh legs but they are not good enough at all.

I would get Warriors a third best team on west at the very best case, probably 5th best team as well, even 6th is up for grabs. Lakers is the best in my opinion, then clippers, Utah, Denver which puts Warriors at 5th after these, and if Suns deal wasn't a shock and just one lucky season, then they may come back and be better than most teams again which would put them at 6th. This is just west, we also have better teams on east as well.

He says the pre-season, most of us probably don't watch a preseason game as it's only an exhibition game to warm up the team a bit. It's a no-bearing game and probably the stars of a certain team will not play in full minutes, or will not play at all. For bettors, it's up to us if we bet on the preseason or we will just save our money and start betting when the regular season starts.

Betting on pre season games is crazy.  Literally a coin flip.  No one knows who will play, for how long, etc.  But as far as watching.  As a knick fan I definately will watch.  Like to see how the rookies and fringe players play as they don't get much burn te during the year.  Good look at the depth of the team.  As far as watching other tes pre season games I probably wont.

Don't bet on a team, bet on the over because preseason is like an exhibition game, less defense so most probably the games will go over. However, we still have to look at the total and carefully analyze it because bookies are also smart, they know that thing too and no easy money in gambling for gamblers.

Yes, that's how you bet on pre-seasons, because betting on a team is like literally betting on a dice game lol.
Over and under might be less predictable what bookies will offer, but considering that there will be less defensive plays so I guess betting for Over would be the safest bet in a pre-season game.

We have less than 2 weeks before the pre-season and the first game will be an interesting one, and the ideal teams where you can bet for Over.

Yes, Brooklyn Nets vs LA Lakers. They want to start the preseason with more offensive showing so you are right, this could go over. Only one game at the start of the preseason and I think I'm betting on the over on this, probably the line would be at least 240 (over/under).

I agree with you. Many all-star players probably will play only 15-20 minutes per game during the preseason. For example, Lebron James played only 2 out of 4 games in the previous preseason. However, this upcoming match (the Nets vs. Lakers) should be interesting because LAL has a great bench.

[Fredomago]

Calm down mate . Yes they are a great team but we are talking about a player who will return after nearly 1.5 years of not playing a game, a player who was never seen as great player (wiggins) and Draymond that got old and yes he was never stats guy but he got worse on defense as well (much better passer though).

This is just west, we also have better teams on east as well.

Just show my fan side mate and it's true they are not the same young guns and without playing together for such a long time probably there are lots of changes and they've got a lot to workout this upcoming season.

Lakers indeed still have the big edge in terms of winning the west they've got much deeper bench though most are old but the chance still high for this team, Suns, Clippers, Dallas and Denver also have that deep bench who can compete and possible to win the title.

Let's wait and hope for the best! It's nearing now and we will see how those teams will perform. Good Luck!

But even that 240 based on starting squads having a good offense but players on the court will ultimately be players who have no bearing on regular season stats or might not even make the final team.  Pre season anything is always impossible for me to gamble on, at least during the season I can base it on known factors (even though I will probably.lose anyway lol).

This is just to warm up the players body before they start the season although their star will not get huge minutes on this game to make sure that they are healthy on the coming season opening but what more interesting there is the rookie's performance and for sure that's what fans what love to see since for seeing their performance on NBA is one of their bearing that the rookie might have a great future.

Undoubtedly, it is a positive aspect of cryptocurrency. Investing in something huge like NBA Basketball will be a big win for them. First, they are getting now a big promotion from a big team like the Sixers, and second, they are able to reach a huge fanbase of a specific sport. Basketball has to be the top five sports in the world with a huge fanbase. So kudos to them for sponsoring the Sixers.

Last year was Harden's injury, what caused it maybe also from fatigue because he does it all. I am rooting for Mills to increase the energy of these guys and share what he learned from Spurs with Pops.

Mills is already a good addition to the team, sort of a role player, but if Kyrie continues with his antics, I think he will be given good minutes as starting five just like when he was with the Spurs. So Kyrie can't play around anymore because the Nets have a good back up of him.

Last year was really devastating to see Harden playing with a hamstring injury. It was only Durant but was not enough to beat the Bucks.
