2024 NBA Season

My gosh, I can't believe the Warriors had a huge blowout win against the Bulls. I'm thinking that the Bulls are really a strong team but they lose to the Nets, now the Warriors. It was a nice bounce back by the Warriors, they only took out Thompson to stop their losing streak, and now they are back.

Curry wasn't so impressive but the contribution of all is pretty evident in this game, and that's the reason why they dominated the Bulls.

I guess Curry knows when to take a back seat when others are doing their job in securing this massive win against the Bulls. I said massive because they stop their losing streak against the top team in the East although one can argue that unfortunately, Zach got injured. Hoping for his speedy recover, but you can't take the W from GSW. They really did a good job and had a balance attack from the beginning.

[rdbase]

Have a bet with them against the Bulls tonight so hope they can pick it up and score a bit more than what they did last night.

So far looking good, the game is currently close. Both teams are just doing some fueling up currently in the first quarter.

But beforehand, it's risky to place a bet at the Warriors providing they are missing some of their key players. On the other hand, the main starters of the Chicago Bulls are playing almost completely as even Caruso is out, it's not that they are at disadvantage.

Edit: The Warriors defeated the Chicago Bulls 138-96. Zach Lavine got injured and only played 4 minutes. The Warriors bench heavily contributed to that game.

Yeah, it was a major blow out for the Bulls as they've lost Zach Lavine, and obviously, he didn't score any points. And then the Warriors up their tempo and defense. All the Warriors that played score at least a point or two in this game.

Hopefully Zach can go back quickly with the Bulls, they needed him. For me he is still the leader of the Chicago and not DeRozan although they compliment each other.

Damn. No wonder his stats showed he stopped scoring early in the 1st quarter.
I had him on a prop bet for over 22.5 pts and it didn't hit. But now it was Chicago's turn to not get up to 100 points in the game.
The lines were over 235.5 pts just before the game so obviously that did not hit either.

This is the big difference between the Lakers and the Warriors right now.

In the Warriors, even their star player Stephen Curry doesn't have a big night there is somebody who can step up, contribute and even carry the whole team to victory and that is why they are one of the most dominating teams right now.

In the Lakers, even Lebron is having an off night it isn't enough for the team to win "sometimes". I mean there is no second or third contributor to the team when it comes to offense. Stepping up is what they need but as the trade deadline is coming, I think the best for the team is to trade some players and get younger ones. No offense and Lebron is a great leader of the team. Its just that the players around him doesn't contributing much for them to dominate the league.

Overall, its nice to see that the Warriors have players who can just take over whenever Steph is having a bad night.

Golden State Warriors finally won a game. They had a really difficult game against Chicago Bulls last night. I was expecting a close result and it was really hard to predict which side could have been the winner too. Because Bulls also are one of the sensational teams of this season. But here in this game, Warriors were so determined to win that they obliterated Bulls by 138-96. Klay Thompson was rested. Stephen Curry didn't have a fascinating performance also. But thanks to a great team play, they still got a comfortable win.

It was a bit awkward tho that they had to sit Klay because I think they can't afford another lose while testing Klay's present capabilities and doing some adjusting while the playoffs are fast approaching, Steve Kerr made a tough decision knowing that Green isn't around. But eventually that decision led to their win with a huge score difference.
These bench players of the GSW are quite smart and really had some initiatives to dig their own scores and make double figures especially Kuminga who really shines in the game today.

I think Klay could understand the circumstance that they had to sit him and see what could be the effect of it. And indeed they break that slump with a win against the Bulls.

The bench players knows their spot already, even with or without Klay they have to muster everything and help Curry because Green is not around. I thought that Kuminga is also on the injured list, but he played so it was a big plus for GSW.

It appears he will need to be in chemistry with them again. 2 years of rest is not a joke and perhaps in practice, they could build a new kind of rotation with him inserted in it. That's a good move from Steve Kerr indeed.
Warriors make NBA history with 70-point halftime-margin swing on consecutive nights against Bucks, Bulls

Every team looks to bounce back strong after a big loss, but the Golden State Warriors took things to historic levels on Friday night. After trailing by 39 points at halftime en route to a 118-99 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday, the Warriors turned around and built a 31-point halftime lead against the Chicago Bulls in a 138-96 win the very next night.

The 70-point discrepancy in halftime scoring margins is the largest for any NBA team on consecutive days in the shot clock era, according to ESPN Stats and Info.

That's new to me. I didn't know they also check on that and there's even a history of it. I know Warriors has a good history of bouncing back in the second half but never like this. The Bulls losing Zach Lavine in the first quarter had so much to do about that because if he is out there, the lead won't go that far.

Well, he should because I can really feel him that he's bit blaming himself for the loss occurred after he returned, we all know that at some point there's some changes/setbacks after he returns in the game and even Steve Kerr is still figuring out what to do because they really need the old KT version but they don't have the time. Anyways, t'was indeed a great and shocking game to see.

I think he already came back from the injury before they played against the Bucks, and I'm quite positive that I did saw him played against the Bucks too and made a double figures, if I'm not mistaken.

Team effort, it was the reason that made it possible for the Golden State Warriors to win against Bulls. They had a total of 39 assists against 26. Golden State Warriors could not make the best of Stephen curry last night, they also had Klay Thompson in rest. That means The Splash Brothers could not put on an act. But Andrew Wiggins, Jordan pole, Jonathan Kuminga filled the gap. And they did it really well. Now we are just eager to see what the Bulls do against the Celtics tomorrow night.

With Zach lavine out the bulls need to figure out who is gonna be the go to guy for them.  Might be good to actually take some demar derozen prop bets.  Derozen is more than capable of being "the guy".  I bet the bulls come back and possibly win this one.  They are getting +6 so the money line might be a good payday if they hit it.

@Sanitough, Yeah... As Stephen Curry was struggling, you know, Kuminga really showed his game perfectly. His shouting, rebounding was a spectacular scene, wasn't it?
All the moment I was expecting he should have given more time in the court. But after a couple of losses, they really didn't take any chance. They totally focused on the team effort and it really paid off. Actually, Bulls is a really good team but they need to up their game. Or else it will be hard for them to make a comeback, I think.

Steve Kerr always has a big surprise for the fans,

By looking at how he rotates the players inside, all are there to contribute from both offense and defense, a very nice
gesture that even they are just have limited time inside the court, they know how to play their role.

Mentioning Kuminga and how he shines out during today's game, that's 6'8 young ballers who still have a lot to improve
just hoping he won't suffer to any major injuries..

[Pulsar77]

Klay Thompson is still in a full recovery phase and the coach didn't prefer him in the Chicago Bulls game last night. But Golden State Warriors still managed to win the game that's the important point. And they had a huge point gap at the end too. Despite Curry's inadequate performance, they still made it and this is a very important point also. Because they need to play as a team strongly as much as possible. Curry or Thompson can't carry the team all the time in the end.

[sana54210]

Zach Lavine could really contribute well in the game today if it's not because of his knee injury that he committed an intentional foul to exit the game formally. He really need to rest and come back quick because the Bulls needs his instincts and assists.

But the Warriors did really bounced back after they lost twice in a row, I highly commend their bench players because this team is one of the perfect examples as they didn't rely on their starplayers. Kuminga, Poole and Wiggins really drilled some scores there and buried the Bulls as they made 41 points in the 2nd quarter alone.

Bulls at a place where every player matters nowadays. So I doubt that they could be doing something that doesn't really change when one player leaves. Derozan, lonzo, lavine, caruso, vucevic, all of them matters a lot for the team. You miss one of them and suddenly the whole system would not be as good.

I am not saying that they would become a terrible team, but they would not be as good as they are right now. Lavine is definitely needed for them. I am still shocked that they are as good as they are right now, I definitely did not expected them to be this good, I expected them to be a better of course but not as good as they are right now.

That's normal in every team Lebron is playing, he is always the main man and they are too reliant on him. When Lebron was injured, the Lakers suddenly tanked, it's not good for the team but it is what it is, we have to accept that the Lakers are not playing like the Warriors.

It was the second game of a back to back and they said klay won't be playing 2 games in a row without rest.  No point killing him right when he gets back.  Getting back into game shape is a real thing and will take a little bit for him to play starter minutes.  Dude was put for 2 years from some pretty dramatic injuries.

That's just the right decision, that's probably what we called a popular "load management" and it's acceptable compared to other players who are just using it to rest even if they are fully healthy. The decision of the Warriors is good because it resulted in a big win by the Warriors.

[Velvet78]

Brooklyn Nets have a home game against New Orleans Pelicans tonight. Nets are already the favourite team to win this game obviously. But there is a probability for Kevin Durant to be rested. Irving is also not able to play. So, Harden will have the biggest responsibility to carry his team to a win. And hopefully he can be successful about doing it. Their last results weren't very good. They had very inconsistent results and we will see what they will do tonight.

[danherbias07]

It's a sweep. Raptors swept the Bucks this season as that was their last game against each other. It's like they are the weakness of the Bucks team. Maybe if they will meet at the playoffs, they will have a chance for revenge with Jrue Holiday playing. 6 players, that's all the Raptors need to defeat them. Foul trouble is their problem but they managed to keep up until the buzzer sounds with a W.
That's one of the upset games today and the other is the Knicks winning against the Hawks. The Bulls might also upset the Celtics with a 6 point lead, 3 minutes left in the 4th.

[dwyane36]

The Lakers lost by 37 points, and I would even say they were destroyed by the Nuggets. LeBron scored 25 points, Westbrook scored 19 points and had 0 turnovers, and even Howard played in the starting lineup. However, it doesn't matter since Jokic made a triple-double in this match, and the Lakers couldn't handle him.
