2024 NBA Season

Kyrie dropping 60 setting his new all time high scoring game. Dude right back in peak form after taking all that time off.

What a good game for Kyrie today and it was another career-high for him breaking his old record and a franchise record as well. This kind of Irving in the playoffs will be scary and unstoppable, you also add Durant to the list with his lethal shooting skills. I hope they let Ben Simmons play now for them to get used to playing with them in the playoffs or it isn't a good idea to mix him up with because right now there are hot winning their 4th straight games.

And it just shows that the Nets is really banking on their big stars to win in game, we've seen those two not playing and it didn't look good for team.

Hopefully they can remain healthy and make the playoffs, otherwise this kind of performance will be nothing. I think they are slowly integrating Ben into their system, maybe he just needed more time before. They are winning though so no need to rush him.

We are witnessing the possible Brooklyn Nets when the playoffs.
We already knew that can be at the top spot as they already did in the first half of the season. Its just that injuries crippled them especially in the offensive side thus, they are a freefall into the standings for a few weeks.

If the Brooklyn Nets are in a complete roster all throughout the playoffs if they will clinch which I think they will, I think I will pick for them as the Eastern Conference Champion. Even though they are at the bottom spot right now, many bettors are betting them as the NBA champions this season because of how great the roster is right now. With regards to Simmons, we still don't know if he will be a perfect fit for the team because we still don't see him in the court but nevertheless, the Nets are in a 4 game winning streak right now and they already have the momentum and I just hope this winning streak will continue.

I think Golden State will grab another championship, Suns is good actually but I think there is something missing in there team. Lakers will surely not win another championship knowing that the team composition is not that good, also AD is injured and LeBron do all the lifting, Westbrook does not fit in their team, Caruso is the better point guard. I think Bucks vs Golden State in the finals. But let see if Suns will not choke.

Well, Suns and GSW isn't the only team that's capable of reaching the finals though, and obviously the Lakers will either not making the play-in or will have another first round exit.
Even the 8th seeded Clippers can beat the Suns or GSW of Kawhi returns healthy.
That the same goes for the Bucks in the East. A healthy and completed roster for the Nets will be unstoppable.

Agreed.  If healthy the Jazz will be heavy contenders, but I still think the Suns are the team to beat so long as cp3 comes back healthy.  And I have the bets taking down the East.  Again so long as nyc lifts its restrictions on letting kyrie play.  They would be a deadly 4/5 matchup.  Imagine a Bucks/Nets first round matchup lol.  Need to see that come through.  One thing I do know..the Knicks are winning the championship this year!

Durant and Kyrie are both great players especially Durant but if they will not allow Kyrie to play, then there is no chance that they will become the top contender for the playoffs. Durant can't carry the whole team to be honest, he needs Kyrie to win a championship like what LeBron needs to win.

[Yogee]

...
I knew that Hornets is not a strong team but still having a 42pts score lead is not usual on an NBA match. Brooklyn focus on Irving this time to hit that 60pts target point for consecutive 50+ points per game.

They played against Orlando who is last in the standings but still that huge gap is something else. Kyrie was just "in the zone" much like how Kobe dropped 81 points on Raptors.

But there's always a downside for this kind of performance, I saw this kind of everperformance before and they always end up being injured during the playoffs. Durant and Irving is known for being fragile, I wonder if they maintain this explosive performance until the finals.

Yes it's hard to sustain such efficiency without exhausting yourself and be more prone to injuries.

[danherbias07]

Scary Kyrie.  He should get himself vaccinated and do that more. If he really cares about his fans he should entertain us every game of the Nets like how he did it with his last couple of games, not in New York.
60 points out of 150 and the percentage of his shots, that's the awesome part.
8/12 outside, 20/31 field goals. That's like 66% if I am not mistaken and that's way high than his average and even with most shooters.
The sad part if not vaccinated, he only got 3 games left to play out of 13 in the season.

[Sanitough]

Yeah, AD's presence is really an advantage especially on the defense because LeBron can move freely in the offense without worrying their defense because AD is there almost all of the time. But sadly, AD is really prone in injuries now and his recovery is much slower and even if he can come back before the season ends, it is quite too late for them because aside from that, their team mates is also a problem.

I think Davis will most likely be back in two weeks, which means he may have time to play at least a couple of games before the end of the regular season. By the way, if the Lakers win the play-in tournament, they will meet the Suns in the first round of the playoffs. Obviously, the Lakers won't have a chance to win them even if Davis and LeBron are healthy.

It is not yet verified, but yes Anthony Davis is estimated to return back in court playing live in the end of this month. He's still seeing the doctor and there's no clearance about that yet. If he'll be back within this month, things will not go as smoothly and they only got roughly 2 weeks until the regular seasons ends and certainly they cannot win every game if he'll be back.

They will likey face the Phoenix Suns, chances are slim but they got to do what it takes if they still want to be in the Semis. Once the playoffs starts, CP3 is also back healthy and that surely is a threat.

[MK-74]

I watched a very well game last night. Kyrie Irving was amazing last night, I'm really enjoying watching this guy.
I want to see the Brooklyn Nets in the final this year, they were eliminated last year due to injuries. I hope that there will be no injuries this year and they will become champions.

The roster of Nets this season is really interesting, they have a lot of twist in just one season. They began with a Big 3 with Harden, Irving and Durant, they became a tough team in the East but as time passed and KD suffered an injury then Irving is playing consistently they began to fell into pieces which brings them in the 9th spot but recently when KD returns and Harden leaps towards the Philly, they again became a threat in the East playing and winning consecutively with highlights every game until now.

Yes, Ben Simmons is the only remaining mystery because Drummond and Seth seems to fit in the system. I hope they will be healthy until the end of this entire season.

Maybe that's one reason why he really takes advantage of his time in the court, just like playing playground basketball for him and exploding huge 60 points, while Durant was just on the sideline enjoying the game because he didn't have to extend himself unlike the last game wherein he really needed to put a good numbers too.

So only 3 games left for him in the regular season, maybe he will explode for another 60 point game performance?

[püsür]

I am half joking but his free time at home court games really gave him an advantage? He only played 19 games. The dude was absolutely crazy last night. 8 of 12 three pointers and 20 of 31 field goals in total. 41 points on the first half. He was magnificent. The betting for away games and home games for Nets is totally different.

On the other hand, the other three games of the night turned out as expected. Grizzlies, Heat and Suns had relatively easy wins. To me, it seems like Heat will hold on to the top spot in the east.

Irving is really a tough player to guard, he can shoot anywhere and you can't guard him due to his craftiness.
With this kind of impressive performance, Nets would not be a hard time of climbing to the standing, the only problem is Irving si can't play in home games.

[Spack17]

The Magic - Nets game last night was incredibly great! Nets won the game by a score like 150-108. And the most impressive part is that Kyrie Irving scored 60 points. It was a really spectacular performance by him. This was his most-scoring game in this season and it was like an answer to Lebron's 56-point game. Irving is an unbelievable player and I wish he was able to play in all games no matter it's home or away. Nets really need him all the time. And the team have started getting better finally as they are on a winning streak of four games.

[Reid]

They are balanced. That's what I think which is the reason for their success. Same with the Phoenix Suns, a balanced team that is difficult to defeat because they can play small and also play big with McGee, Ayton, and Byombo just there if they will be up against giant teams like Nuggets or 76ers.
Miami Heat has Bam and he had been productive after coming back from an injury. The paint is secured because of him and he can score right away.
One more player that had been stepping up his game his Tyler Herro. Good future smiling at him.

Is this still due to unvaccinated restrictions? I read recently that the reason he was not available on Nets games is because Irving is not allowed to play on the particular state due to unvaccinated policy, This is absurd since the players is in quarantine and there always a Rapid test kit to test whether he is positive or not. I knew this because I lose one of my bets for betting to Nets while I don’t have any info that he can’t play in the game for that policy.

By the way Durant and Irving is very strong duo and one of the best in this season. I excited to see them fight Suns or GSWand see if they still perform like this.

Yes in nyc he can't play unless he gets vaccinated so any home game (or against the knicks) he has to sit.  I think people can't even go to the games unless they are vaccinated.  Can't even eat at an indoor resteraunt unless you are fully vaccinated.  One of the stricter areas but I think it will get lifted soon as everything starts opening up.

I need to see kyrie 100% in the playoffs.  Dude is stupid good.  Might be one of the craftiness players I've ever seen.

That's the policy in New York, so he is not allowed to play in home games which is not good, especially in the playoffs. There are also rumors that he could play but he has to pay a monetary penalty, I'm not sure if it's true but hopefully, it is because, without Irving, Nets might not even make it to the playoffs.

By the way Durant and Irving is very strong duo and one of the best in this season. I excited to see them fight Suns or GSWand see if they still perform like this.

As long as they play together, there's a huge chance they can beat those two teams.

[Hypnosis00]

This duo too is always getting injured in the playoffs base on there recent playoffs appearance in both GSW and Cavaliers. No doubt they are good in terms of scoring and assist but there team is nothing if they are gone unlike other teams that has a strong bench players to cover them in case there starter player is out of the game for rest. The best example here are GSW and Suns current roster, They have a lot of good bench players that can be replace the starter 5 in case they are out of the game and they are not fully relying on them if they need score except when star players is on clutch time.

Not for Durant, maybe Irving. But, this duo still makes a team a championship team and we should just hope that they'll be healthy this coming playoffs. You know, when one of them gets injured, that would result in a lower chance of winning, just like last playoffs when Irving was injured, Nets loss to the Bucks in the ECF.

They'll remain as one of my favorites to win a championship this season despite the fact that both players have been injury-prone.

If they remain healthy for the rest of the games, the chance is big for the Nets to compete or win this season's title.

We don't know if they are now healthy after that long rest due to their injuries,
though I'm also eying for them for the next round or a possible to take the ECF
and meet anyone from the West for the finals..

He was really unstoppable today and he got his last basket by shooting downtown, seeing the game live is so good! However, time will come that his presence on the court will be much needed especially on series games but sadly he cannot play because he is not vaccinated.
Imagine if a Game 7 will played on their home and they lost, their effort in regular season will be in vain just because of that very reason. Anyways, he have his own reason why he stayed as an unvaccinated individual.

Yes, Suns and Heat are both balance they are not purely relying on their stars but the role players are always contributing

what the team needs them to provide. The next round would be tough since all the teams are also competitive and capable of

win. Still early, but the chance of both teams to advance to the next round is high. Just need to keep doing what is best

to move forward.
