2024 NBA Season

[RealMalatesta]

I don't think there will be immediately chemistry though, Bosh has been out for years and maybe he will be given limited minutes too. Maybe some fans are going to be sentimental to see him play with Lebron again. But it doesn't mean it will translate that the Lakers will become a good team. There's a lot that needed to be done in Lakers, I mean we have seen how the team turns into a the laughing stock of the NBA because of it's superstars not jiving along and have streak of losses.

I seriously doubt that anyone would be willing to take that risk. Bosh was basically "forced" to retire because he had heart disease and that's why he is not playing anymore, I really do not think that he could come back because teams didn't want to play him. He is already out of contract I believe, been a few years probably, he could go to any team he wanted to and still didn't because teams didn't want a player dying on the floor.

Considering covid is also a risky thing, combine that with what Bosh has, it would be very horrible for him to actually play in that level anymore. We have to realize that he is just too old and too out of shape but more importantly too risky to sign right now.

LeMarcus Aldrige had a similar scare and is back on the court after some time off.  I don't think Bosh would be much different.  He says he's in playing shape and that's good enough for me to see him get a 10 day contract.  He'll either be good or he won't, but at least he'd get a chance to end his career on his terms, which I think he deserves. 

I'm not liking the lack of nationally televised games recently.  Looking forward to TNT, ESPN, & ABC getting back in the routine and airing some games.  They got me over here using my free time to do housework...

It must be mentioned a lot in here enough but nevertheless I can't get over how cool it was that DeRozan hit two buzzer beaters back to back in two days. He has grown so much this season as in being a very solid scorer and a very dependable player. Bulls are 24-10 right now. They will still get over the Bucks to get to NBA Finals and still, if they can get to the finals, the team from western conference will be a very strong opponent. I feel like a team from west might get the championship this year.

Not that bad if they get to the Finals but we're yet half way there for the regular season though and things may change drastically as it's nearing playoffs. I'm rooting they can catch the playoff spot this year and if by chance they get to Finals, I mean that will be too awesome and they are a contender right now in the East.

From West there's a lot of strong team to be honest there and one surely is the raging Golden State and I think they're the heavy favorite for this year to went in the Finals.

The Utah Jazz - Golden State Warriors game was really awesome last night. It was a game between one of the best teams of the Western Conference also. Jazz's performance in the third quarter was really something special for sure. They put up a really great fight against Warriors here but couldn't prevent themselves from losing to them by 123-116 home. There were four players who scored 20 points for Jazz. And Gobert was really impressive by 20 points and 19 rebounds. Curry did another great job by ending it being the top scorer (28 points) and had the biggest role in the victory.

Yeah that was a great game and could be a series we see in the playoffs which would be welcoming.  Steph carrying his team like he is this year honestly surprises me.  Not that I didn't think steph was good enough but he is single handedly doing it against some of the best teams in the league.  If I had to lay money right now on nba finals champ I'm taking steph and his squad.

Damn! Vanvleet is torching the Knicks right now as he's the only player on 30+ points at the moment. It's almost a 20-point lead after three quarters and I doubt the Raptors will allow their opponent to catch up in the fourth. Their roster is almost back to 100% unlike the Knicks missing a lot of players.

....
So let's see how it goes for him, who wouldn't want to see him play?

His friends and family who is more concerned about his health than suiting up to entertain basketball fans?

[coderben]

Raptors are completely destroying Knicks now. There is a point gap of more than 20 points now. Raptors really needed a this kind of win actually. Knicks are so bad at defending now. And so far, VanVleet has been the star of the night. He scored 35 points so far. And he has a 11/17 field goal made. This is his best performance so far in this season I guess. I saw him scoring 31 points the most so far.

VanFleet is regaining his All-Star moves and just recently, together with Paskal Siakam, they are putting good numbers fueling the Raptors to win. However, the majority is expecting that they will really win because New York Knicks is totally on handicap status because of injury and health-related protocols currently and that's a big disadvantage to them.

Let's see if the Raptors can replicate the same performance in their next set of games.

I agree that Bosh deserves it. However, he hasn't had a game practice for a very long time. So it's unlikely that any team will decide to offer him a contract even if he is still in shape. Besides, any player should be medically cleared by lots of doctors before signing a contract. It may also be an obstacle for Bosh.

The Lakers just won the game tonight against the Timberwolves with another huge bucket from LBJ and the rest of the team, especially the four-point play by Carmelo Anthony which stretch the lead to 5 and the Timberwolves cannot get back the lead after that. Lakers defense this time has taken the big role to win this game and all thanks for Avery Bradley where he stole some crucial possessions to stop the Timberwolves

Unfortunately I have to agree with that lol.
The Warriors this season are playing very well (detail, they are without Klay Thompson)
It is regrettable to see the Lakers in the situation they are in today, they managed to create an excellent team, but it is not having the result that everyone expected.

I got to watch a little bit of this game between LA vs Timberwolves, and I confess it was very interesting and competitive game.
I've spoken several times here, and... I'm very surprised with Carmelo Anthony's performance, he's not that AllStar player he used to be, but playing in the Lakers, he's helping the team a lot!

[danherbias07]

^Yes, good game for Melo. There's still a lot of cleaning up with the Lakers plays. I have seen a lot of bad turnovers that are hard to swallow. It's not the typical one where you could say it's because of the fast pace of the game. They got reckless especially on those last minutes of the game.
Lebron didn't have the 30+ points but he did great by leading his team. If this continues, they might get the chemistry that they wanted with him leading the way.
On the other hand, I have read some fans saying they just won because KAT and DLo are out but it's part of the game, and if ever they played it will also be a different Lakers that will face them.

We are not sure of that, maybe he keep himself active during that time and has been playing basketball unofficially, just like IT. And with that said, I believed that he is active and has been in the court playing before this one. Of course, before he can play he need to be cleared by doctors, not just his doctors but the NBA doctors themselves, just like in the case of LA. So I don't think this could be an obstacle for Bosh to make his NBA comeback.

And for sure the team management of whoever team planning to take him will think twice knowing that he's old already and out of his prime so for sure they cannot use him more and he will became a bench warmer on the teak so I think this will be the major barricade of his comeback. But who knows maybe we can see him sign and there's a team want only his presence and his role is to motivate the young player on the team.

Miami Heat lost at the last position to Sacramento Kings, while missing 11 players. They fought hard considering that much of a missing players and the rookie Omer Yurtseven had a big night with 22 points 16 rebounds including 6 offensive reb. But Sacramento held on at the last minute. Thus, Miami is 23-14, .622. I really wonder where will they be in the playoffs and how far can they go.

[Finestream]

@OgNasty, we thought that LA will never be able to come back due to his heart problem but he was playing very well this season. Heat might give him a chance but if other teams will be interested in him, like the Lakers, maybe he can grab the opportunity and play with Lebron whom he is familiar with already since they both won a championship back in Miami.

Yeah, the LA Lakers will likely to give Bosh an opportunity rather than the Heat and if it will happen then it's a good news and it would really mean much for the Lakers even if it's just a 10-day contract because their team really needs some help from another superstar whom LeBron is familiar and the chemistry is good. Bosh will be a good replacement of Davis even if it's temporary. But as I read the article, seems that Bosh is only interested on the Miami Heat.

I don't think there will be immediately chemistry though, Bosh has been out for years and maybe he will be given limited minutes too. Maybe some fans are going to be sentimental to see him play with Lebron again. But it doesn't mean it will translate that the Lakers will become a good team. There's a lot that needed to be done in Lakers, I mean we have seen how the team turns into a the laughing stock of the NBA because of it's superstars not jiving along and have streak of losses.

Exactly, there's really a lot more needed to be done in Lakers but for now, Bosh is a better news to help Lakers recover its consecutive loss and that's if the Heat won't bite and grab Bosh's offer. Bosh's presence in the court in any given team will somehow make the fans happy and excited, and if ever it will be the Lakers it's definitely a big help to the franchise from becoming a clown in the league even if Bosh won't have a long break in the court. But there's no need to expect a lot from the man who's just playing for a short notice because he's been out and inactive for being a professional player since 2016.

There's still plenty of time, the Miami Heat will eventually find a way to win and to stay in the playoffs spot. For sure they will not allow to miss the playoffs and with the ongoing health protocol impose in all teams I guess, they are not the only ones who are affect, other teams as well, so just relax, they'll bonce back for sure.

They fought well considering how many players are missing in their roster. Butler, Herro, and Lowry paved the way but it's just not enough to defeat the speed and firepower of the Sacramento Kings. Omer Yurtseven. He performed good tonight and was filling the hole that Bam Adebayo left. 4th consecutive double digits in both points and rebounds while 8th for rebounds only. I can tell the future is bright for him if he keep this up and a lot of room for improvement for the Turkish player. Gain experience and respect from the officials because there's a lot of calls that was missed.

I mean the Heat has still a decent record isn't it? So there's no need for concern right now for sure every team in the NBA is suffering for the health and safety protocol that's why we seldom see a team really in 100% capacity. And I agree that this is just one lost, and for sure they have a lot of time to bounce back again and be in the playoffs this season with Butler still the leader of this team.
