2024 NBA Season

[yazher]

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.

This is what I'm thinking earlier since they really gave them a hard time until their last game of the season. If they somehow gonna play against each other in the NBA playoffs, then they will have some difficult wall they need to break to get the chance to win a back-to-back championship. The Bulls lost this one and they are now lost 3rd streak of their last games.

What a game between the Bulls and the Celtics, I thought that the Bulls are going to take the win already. But they melt down with less than a minute to go, failed to score while the Celtics, with Robert Williams hitting 4 crucial free throws. They have been in the lead most of the time when the Bulls comes back late in the 3rd and took the 4th quarter. But they have enough gas to push and a hard fought win for the Celts.

Those 2 turnovers at the final minute of the game is very huge because the Celtics converted it into points and yes those 4 free throws by Williams sealed the deal.
You can also in his face a bit of a pressure because his free throw will dictate the outcome of the game.

A blooper has been made when one announcer thought that it will go to Overtime where in fact the Celtics win. The Announcers are in another world . Now the Bulls are in a 3 game losing streak and 0.5 games behind Brooklyn who is in 2nd. With the absence of Lavine for a brief moment, I think that Bulls will not hold the top spot for some time. Seeing the current standings and the top 4 in the East all have 27 wins so there is a chance that we might see new team at the top after a few games.

Actually, the Bulls almost had the game in their hand those times. That 10 -4 start, 20 points lead, If they could just keep that up, It's such a disappointment. And the Milwaukee Bucks loss was kind of unexpected. They smashed the Golden State Warriors with an almost 20 points lead.  On the other hand, the Hawks have a bad time ongoing. They are losing consistently by a little fraction. The way all those matches turned around, it was both thrilling and frustrating.

^ It was such a close game. Firstly congrats to the Celtics for the win. I thought that the Bulls might win this match but the Celtics proved me wrong. It all came down to the last minutes of the game and this is the type of game we want to see more. Nail-biting and thrilling - not knowing till the last second who would win. Both the teams played really well IMO.

^ players from the Celtics hit the double-digit mark and the trio of Derozan, Vucevic, and Dosunmu scored 20+ points for the Bulls. The last two turnovers were quite the most impactful event in the match as I think that is a big reason why the Celtics won.

It's a match well-played by Toronto Raptors. Siakam and OG rose to the occasion as Siakam scored 30 points and OG scored 24. By the way, Siakam had the triple-double which is also a good milestone.

I don't think anyone other than Giannis from the Bucks played that well. Giannis hit 30 points on the scoreboard and the only one close to him is Allen who score 18.
Middleton score 16 points but I expected him to play a bit better than what he has done. The bucks really need to improve a lot.

They really missed the services of a high caliber point guard, which is Holiday. And it's evident in this game as there are no one that can distributed the ball around.

Again, Giannis try to do it by himself, but without any help other than Middleton, the defending champion looks like an ordinary team.

Toronto is on a roll right now as they are almost at full strength with this victory.

Yeah, that turnover and then Celtics scoring a goal and the free throws was the crucial pieces on their win. I also thought that the Bulls have this one and has control of the game, but when I came back to check the scores, the Celtics won and I have to check the highlights and see what went wrong with the Bulls. Dosunmu really played very good in this game maybe he will be given more time in the absence of Zach Lavine because they needed another scorer.

Toronto is on a roll right now as they are almost at full strength with this victory.

What I find amazing from Jrue's game is his defense, he never failed to be included in the all-defensive first or second teams almost every season, VanVleet was a problem outside but Siakam was a beast, they needed that exterior defense pretty much, and George Hill is not known for his defense, they also needed Khris Middleton's production points, sadly, he was underperforming and in result, they lost to the Raptors, it was a different energy when they faced the Warriors  vs. how they faced the Raptors.

The inconsistency of Khris Middleton showed up once again. Obviously he have to perform better when Jrue is not around. Why do they even let Giannis make the plays and not him or another guard so that he could set up their position in post up which the two stars of the Bucks are good at.
The big difference is points in the paint. Raptors made 44 while the Bucks only made 24 which is quite surprising for a known team that always scores on inside maneuvers. All I could say is they badly needed Jrue back or give up that Giannis making the plays and use another point to do the job.

They are only dominant inside if they have Brook Lopez, without him that dominant is not consistent. Jrue is a big piece for the Bucks especially on the defensive side and on making plays as well. I was also thinking that the Bucks could win, but disappointed with the result as they lose at home after beating the Warriors.

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.

Actually, I think the Lakers needed a beatdown by 50. you know, they were just standing in the defense, no spirit at all. If you look, they had  Frank Vogel, the best coach, But now it wasn't enough. The match was really frustrating to watch as a Lakers fan. It was almost like LeBron James vs the Nuggets match. On the other hand, Nuggets had 32 assists against 21 of Lakes. It really shows the team effort.

Lakers are always exposed every time they play a good team or a playoff team. Sometimes they'll have some winning streak but only against a weaker team and we should not be misled by what they show because they are as a team are messing up this season.

It's hard for the Lakers to win without Davis, that's the reality because Lebron James even with his consistency could not make this team better. Their plays are very predictable because not everyone is contributing, that's why the Nuggets easily dominated them. Anyways, seasons are not over yet and as long as there's still time, there's still a chance to improve.

 How could management have so quickly dismembered and dismantled a world championship team? This is the worst defeat of the Lakers ever to Denver. Very bad defense from Lakers. I mean some years ago they lost at home with Lebron James elegantly on the bench waiting for the LA Derby against the Clippers two days later

They've done the wrong decision on trading their key players for Westbrook, they have a big 3 but it's not working as one could either be injured and the other are not synching to the system of the Lakers. They are in trouble this season, not sure if they can still fix that big problem.

[S A KHAIR]

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.

Absolutely, Kuminga really needs more match time. He was on top of his form. I can say that the bench players saved the Golden State Warriors against The Bulls this time. But I am eager to see what happens when Draymond Green returns from injury and Stephen Curry gets his form right. Having this kind of backup from the bench players, I think the Golden State Warriors are looking at the championship this time.

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.

The bulls had their 5th loss this season. Even they were on the lead of 20 points against The Trail Brazzers. I think that it was their worst loss this season. They even got a good start, 10-4 lead. But they could keep it up till the last moment. Bulls learned in a hard way that in a pro game like this, they need to keep up the play till the last moment. The bulls now have a perfect form. Every player is in the good shape. With DeMar DeRozan, Nikola Vucevic, and others, they have a really strong lineup. All they need to do is shake it off and give their all in the next matches. I think they are the team to dominate.

They are complete this time so they certainly have a chance to win a championship. I like their start and I hope they'll be consistent especially in the playoffs. The long-awaited comeback of Thompson has already happened, if he can fully get back in form, he will be very dangerous in the playoffs.

Slowly but surely, better for Klay to slowly getting his rhythm back.

Though they are losing but the exposure he's getting inside the court will allow him to adjust. There are more players who
can really provide, but the interior of GSW will remain the same.

Once Green, Iggy, Steph and Klay start to heat up, the whole squad will feel the impact, getting closer to the playoffs now,
good to see them playing the same form back then when they still the dominating champ.

There's still time but I do hope they'll use that to improve their chemistry as they really lack in almost every aspect, they don't have a choice but to improve their defense and offensive strategy because Davis ain't still available, Westbrook tho was really a bad trade. Well, the Lakers now is in a tight spot and it certainly looks like the Clippers are getting ready to go and  take the 7th spot. Let's see how would they work things out against the Jazz tomorrow.
