2025 NBA Season

[ChiBitCTy]

Well that’s three losses in a row now for my Chicago Bulls. I knew I should have put a few dollars on the Hawks last night, not that I had much faith in them, but I just had less faith in the Bulls as they are currently skidding and I feel like they are in kind of a bad spot right now overall. Hopefully they can right the ship tonight versus the Bucks but I’m not counting on it.

Me, I'll go with the Bulls, they are in a losing streak so they'll make sure they'll win this game. Overall, the Bulls are still a good team and maybe they are just struggling a bit now but they'll figure it out and I like to see that against a strong team like the Bucks .

no more handicap for me, I'll take the moneyline.

24 - 9 win/loss record for the Bulls, they should get this one.

You should have put a few, but yeah, we can't really tell for sure if they can win or not even if it is just a low spread. They're on the losing steak now, it can't be helped because Alex Caruso and Lonzo Ball aren't around to help them. And if they did not make it against the Hawks, what more against the former champion right? Bucks is much more tougher than the Hawks.

I'd just steer clear of this game.  At any point the bulls could turn it around but on the second night of a back to back and 3 losses in a row, going against the defending Champs tough one for the Bulls.  Keep your head up Chi...you could be a knick fan

All eyes are on the 76ers tomorrow since they haven't tasted a single loss since Embiid and Harden played together, it seems like they are the ones who won the trade and continue to dominate the Eastern Conference. they are 4 wins away to get to the number one spot given that the Heat will lose their next games. But that would depend on tomorrow's games vs the 76ers. I'm glad to see such teams giving all they can to continue to dominate the league and finally they are meant to play against each other to show everyone who's the real deal.

Seems like it! 76ers are on a winning streak now, 4 times in a row to be exact. 76ers is already tough one to beat but they got even stronger and tougher when Harden arrives on Philly, he was really a good additional to the team and an exact missing piece in the puzzle. Many have speculated that this trade will be a mess but it turns out that they are the one who won the trade, I think no one could argue about that.

On tomorrows match against the Cavaliers, I have no doubt that 76ers could still dominate them.

Certainly, Cavaliers are on a 2 game loss and it's a bit surprising after they made the trend at the first half of the season. They can also win streaks but somehow they loss touch and became unpredictable again. I think 76ers could handle the spread even at -10 if Harden will have his best night again.
Maybe another triple double for the Beard and over 30 points for Embiid would seal it.

Knicks are done.  Can see them losing 15 of the last 20 games.  They look like they have fight, then every game the seem to get outscored 15-20 points.  This team lacks balls.  They need to not draft talent with this draft but a kid who has fight in him, outside of a coue players they seem too soft.  Sad considering how they played last year...another year another disappointment.

They are playing very badly compared to last year, the team is really disbanded. There is no hope for this season, they won't get many wins in the next matches either. Good trades must be made in the team, if they remain as they are, they will perform much worse next season.
Obi Toppin needs to play for a better team, he is undervalued in this team

Yes, just sad how the Knicks turns out this season, there are a lot of hope on them specially with how they played last season. And if I remember correctly, Julius signed a good amount of money to the Knicks because of his strength last season. Now he is getting booed even at Madison Garden, meaning fans are disenfranchised with the team so it's time to do some changes again.

It is very normal that the fans are not satisfied, a much better team could have been formed instead of these players. There is a lot of difference between last season's game and current game, it's normal for people to be dissatisfied. If you're keeping a team, you expect it to get better every year, but for the Knics it's the opposite. We have a team that is in a real collapse right now

[darxiaomi]

With the results we are having there are no doubt Lakers its gona play the Play In again.
I cant belibe how bad chemistry they have in the team.
Do you think the Sacramento Kings can we the new players go to the Play IN? i think YES. For me Domantas Sabonis its one of the best players in the League.
In other things an unexpected lose for the Chicago yesterday in Atlanta.

[sana54210]

Don't worry, time will come that he will be traded, there's no reason for the Lakers to keep him when they are not winning, the management will surely make a decision to get rid of some of the superstars probably Lebron is one of them or maybe Davis will be traded too. This season is not over yet, they still have a chance but like what most of us see, I also see that their chance is very slim.

They need to unload those paper superstars, not sure who among the three will be traded first. The chemistry is still not jiving and there's no reason for the Lakers to keep this kind of squad, seems that the players are not enjoying each other's company. They are not trying that hard to win a game. Fans are already unsatisfied with the way the team is performing. For sure the management will hear them and start discussing for a much better future of this franchise.

You can't unload superstars that have "bad debt" contracts. Westbrook has a HUGE contract and yet he is not playing well at all, he sucks and if you want to send him to some team, you would have to pay to get rid of him, not get paid. Remember Lakers with Mozgov contract? They had to give D'lo to get rid of Mozgov at the same time, and this is basically the same thing. I have to say Westbrook is better than Mozgov for sure, but he still doesn't deserve his contract for sure.

AD is a bit different, when he plays with 100% he is an amazing player and deserves every single penny he gets, but he is injured so frequently that you may believe he is made of glass. Which is why I believe that the only contract you can unload is Lebron and is he really the first player you send away on this situation? They are screwed and without draft picks, that is just simple as that. They got a ring out of this situation and gonna suck for 5+ more years give or take.

No stopping Harden in this game, he is very confident and he loves his teammates so he should be productive as he was in the last 4 games. The point spread now is only -7.5 , it should not be hard to cover since they won by double digits in their last 3 games, and playing at home should be another big advantage for them.

Against the Cavs? Well, IMO that's a high probability of a win for the Sixers, considering how well they were playing from the last 3 games with Harden in the line up.
Seems like Maxey is a perfect compliment for Embiid and Harden as well and they are becoming a definitely strong team in the East right now.
I also think they still have enough time to sit at the top seed before the season ends.

If they continue their impressive run, they could be at the top in no time.

Currently, the Heat is sitting at the top 1 with a 42-22 w-l record while Sixers is in 2nd with a 38-23 record, so it should not be hard for them to overtake the Heat and I'm confident that they'll be the best team per record in the East. source : https://www.espn.com/nba/standings

....

The return of KD is definitely a good news but facing the Heat isn't right after injury isn't. I'm not sure how many playing time the coach would give him but I hope they take it easy for now.

.... I really thought that the Nets will bounce back today because KD is back and after losing 2 games in a row, KD made 31 points but he couldn't just handle the Heats movement by himself and he needs Irving on this one.

KD had more than 30 minutes playing time which is more than what I expected. It was a bold decision by the coach but he probably wanted to get that win so badly. The risk almost paid off. Heat game was a good test for him and they should start winning more games soon.

And it's new york and we've been on a 20 year bender as a fan base.  Don't give us hope than strip it away lol.  In all honesty with the amount that the tickets cost I don't blame the fans when the Knicks lay down a stinker 9 out of 10 times.  Knicks need to make massive moves.

[harizen]

Even though they lost, Durant had a good performance for his first game from injury. It was a close game until the end but that crucial shot (3 points) just won't go in. He'll just get better from here as he becomes more comfortable in the court.

I know his a clutch but sometimes he needs to trust his teammates to do the thing. See that last play where he aggressively get into the ring? He was already tired there. There should be another "what if" aside if he nailed that shot. And as I noticed, Nets seems to be exhausted as always. Kevin Durant just came back from an injury but taking a heavy load right away. Nets role players should do their best to play at their highest level of performance even no Durant on the floor.

I also see at some point that Durant is frustrated when there's an easy open play made by the Heat. See also those Tyler Herro's attack? He's muscling his way thru the paint and always got an easy bucket because of Nets poor defense.

The Harden-Embiid duo is impressive, but they have only played against weak opponents so far. By the way, it is worth noting that the 76ers have a very difficult schedule for the next few days, considering they will be playing against teams like the Heat, Bulls, and Nets. I wonder if this duo can compete against such strong teams or not.

Cam Johnson ended the game against the Knicks with a 3-point buzzer-beater to give the Suns another win even without CP3 and Booker. Amazing.
That was an intense game with Randle being kicked out due to two technical fouls from the fight with Johnson. Just when he was also having a great night and contributing most to the team, he reacted impulsively, should've thought twice before doing it. Now, they are on their 7th losing streak because of it.
38 points for Johnson and on the Knicks side Mitchell Robinson with 17 points and 17 rebounds.

To be honest, I just watch the first quarter and I was torn between the Suns covering the spread or not because of how the Knicks play. So it turns out to be a good game, Randle really started hot in the first quarter. Maybe he doesn't want to score 9 points, which what he got the last time they met. So yeah, another win for the Suns but the spread was not covered.

And the 76ers have won the game against the Cavaliers, making this their 5th win streak. Final Score: 125-119
Cavaliers have been leading with 10+ points in the first half but then Maxey and Embiid got hot in the 3rd quarter chasing the Cavs and cut the lead by 5. Maxey is on the spotlight today, making lot of threes and made 33 points.
