2024 NBA Season

[Ziskinberg]

Anyway, seeing some articles that he might come back before the playoffs is a big relief for me as a Warrior fan. I would like to see the old big 3 of the Warriors in Curry, Thompson and Green play together.

That's not impossible as it was not stated in the news that he will also miss the playoffs.

Curry, Thompson and Green are the original big 3 of the Warriors, they will be fun to watch in the playoffs for sure. .

I'm checking the odds for NBA futures now, particularly on the 2022 NBA FINALS ODDS.

Warriors odds seemed to be very attractive, at +650, it's a good grab IMO.

If hope is no longer with Kyrie, better to bring Curry and Simmons to help Durant.

Durant and other Nets players shouldn't rely on Simmons' help. There are rumors that Ben hopes to play only a couple of games in this regular season, although I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't play at all. Even if Ben decides to return during the playoffs, it will be pointless because he won't have time to adapt after such a long break.

I'm with you on that opinion mate, I will highly discourage the idea of relying on Simmons if I were in that team or in the management. Instead, they should just focus and work more on their present active roster because that would be more reasonable. Ben Simmons are full of rumors since he did some nonsense to his former team and that kind of image will remain.

I reckon Simmons still haven't able to practice or do some shootouts with the rest of the team and that's an another reason why he is unreliable, his presence is still a mystery to the team as they still did not know if he could really fit into their system.

[Finestream]

Let's just hope that nothing is serious here and that he can come back when he is needed most, and that is in the playoffs.
Warriors are already secured a playoff spot, so they just have to maintain that.

Blame that on Marcus smart, LOL.

The injury seemed no so serious as Curry was able to walk by himself to the locker room, for sure he will come back soon, maybe even before the playoffs. Warriors already sitting in comfortable ranking, so no pressure on Curry to force the return.

I don't think that we should blame him because even Green himself said in an interview that “I can't call it a dirty play". He said on that interview that it is "unnecessary" but nevertheless, Curry getting injured where playoffs is near is really a bad news. Now the Suns and the Warriors have an injured all-star player.
Here is the Interview BTW: LINK

Lets just hope for the best I think that he will come back before or during the playoffs.

Playoffs would be boring if the stars will not play.

We need to see Curry and Chris Paul in their uniform in the playoffs because that makes the playoffs more exciting and we will see a deserving team to win the playoffs. On the news that I read regarding their injury, it didn't say that they'll be out in the season, so we have to be optimistic that they will return soon.

GSW management expect Curry to be back on Playoffs so I think this will be fine as he can still recover at that timeline since he will set out at their remaining games. If Curry will totally miss this and came back late on playoffs then most provably his team will struggle and this is another unfortunate thing will happen again on their team this season. Hopefully we can see those stars back in action since they are the main flavor on playoffs.

They know better because they are monitoring the condition of Curry, if they expect he will be back soon, that means it is what is likely to happen. Curry is the main man of the team, without him this GSW success that they build this season will turn to nothing, for sure they won't allow that to happen.

Yes, so true. Also, that takes out the bad reasoning being done by the fans of each team. Like "Phoenix Suns lose because there is no CP3." I don't like to hear that. So it would be better if all of them will be healthy although that is impossible with how they play at full force during the playoffs.
Something bad will always happen, either a punch to the face, an elbow, or a foot being left at where the shooter will land.
I still want to see them play at that time to avoid those kinds of reasons by the bandwagons and it's more entertaining to see them silenced and bleeding to find the cause of their respective team's defeat.

There’s no fracture o major damage base on his x-ray report so he will be fine with just a few weeks of rest. Sprain typically go away within a week with just a sedatives and therapy for fast recovery. I thought he will have a major injury base on the footage since he is very fragile when it comes to leg injury. GSW will really  lose there momentum on playoffs if Curry will be out for the whole time period, Klay thompson is still adjusting while the rest of the team is still new and very hard for them to step up and play curry role as leader.

That happened last season, lots of excuses from the losing teams from the fans' perspective, I still remember the excuses last season.

1-Lakers loss due to Davis injury.
2- Clippers loss due to Leonard's injury
3-Nets loss due to Irving's injury
4- Atlanta loss due to Trae Young's injury
5- Nuggets loss due to Murray's injury.

6- Sixers loss due to Simmon's low basketball IQ,... kidding.

Stephen Curry didn't have a good game and stayed at only three points last night. He didn't play too much and also maybe he was rested in this game I don't know.

Did you only look at the score? He wasn't rested. He was injured in the first half after he and Marcus Smart went for a loose ball.

Steph Curry will be out indefinitely after that left foot injury but some speculate that he could be back next month.

Lol Clearly he didn't watched the game or even bothered to watch the full game highlights that's why he didn't knew that Steph Curry was injured and only looked at the score after the game. Anyways, after the incident Steve Kerr was really upset against Marcus Smart because he thought that he played dangerously but then he relaxed after they saw what happened in replay and Marcus clearly don't want that to happen either.

Here's the update about Stephen Curry:

According to ESPN's Ramona Shelburne and Adrian Wojnarowski, inside the Golden State organization, the realistic hope for the home team in San Francisco is that the player who has made the most three-pointers in NBA history will return for the start of the playoffs.

[stadus]

That is correct, it's not that Steph Curry has a bad game, he suffered a bad injury that will sideline him indefinitely and it's a bad news for the Warriors are they are trying to maintain that second spot in the West. But with that lost, the Memphis is not a full game ahead of them in the 2nd spot. But they are going to make the playoffs so that's good news and hopefully Steph will be available by that time.

It's just the bad time to be injured but not totally worse since it's not really in the playoff games where they are against a team where they already lost two straight games. I'm sure he will gonna be better once they put him back in the court the only question is in that indefinite time of his absence. Let's just hope that it wasn't that serious and we can still see him with Klay competing in the Playoff like they used to.

No timetable yet on his return as per the latest update.

Stephen Curry injury update: Warriors star out indefinitely with sprained ligament in left foot

Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry is out indefinitely with a sprained ligament in his left foot, according to The Athletic's Shams Charania. X-rays after the Warriors' game against the Boston Celtics on Wednesday reportedly did not reveal any fractures or significant structural damage. Curry will see specialists, and there is optimism that he will be available when the playoffs begin, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski and Ramona Shelburne. 

Late in the second quarter at Chase Center, Marcus Smart collided with Curry as the Celtics guard dove on the floor for a loose ball. Curry had to check out of the game and did not return.

Let's just hope that nothing is serious here and that he can come back when he is needed most, and that is in the playoffs.
Warriors are already secured a playoff spot, so they just have to maintain that.

Yup, there's nothing to worry about him as his condition is not that serious or something that requires more than 6 weeks off because if something serious will happen then the GSW is definitely impaired as one of their best shooter is on out for more than a month.

After undergoing the usual MRI and X-Ray tests, the good news for the Warriors is that there is no bone damage to Curry but he has been diagnosed with a sprained ligament in left foot, which has him out indefinitely.

The good thing is that Steph will just need to rest for a bit as he really also needs it even without injury and after that he'll be able to play once the playoffs commence, but there's no definite date yet.

[Yaunfitda]

That is really a good news to hear that it was just a sprained injury and nothing more serious.

And then we have this noise that Marcus Smart was a dirty player on what he did against Steph and then the kick on Klay Thompson. Steve Kerr is very vocal about it and there was a talk between the two during the game and you can see Smart' shaking his head as if saying that he didn't do it intentionally on Steph.

For now let's give him the benefit of the doubt, he is a tough defender and according to him he is just chasing the ball when that unfortunate thing happen.

Same with the Thompson case, it was a good fake by Klay, smart bite into it, but maybe he wanted to stop Klay and his foot might be his last defense.

He doesn't really need to rush his recovery in my opinion.

I think that the Warriors are extremely team oriented and as a result, they are going to be just fine without their big stars. We have seen this before when Klay and Draymond was out.

As long as Steph is able to make a comeback during the playoffs at some stage, it will suffice.

[fullhdpixel]

But with that lost, the Memphis is not a full game ahead of them in the 2nd spot. But they are going to make the playoffs so that's good news and hopefully Steph will be available by that time.

It could all change as the Mavericks with Luka and Dinwiddie are pushing for more wins. Tied with the Jazz at 43 wins while the Warriors at 47. It's not that far with 13 games left for the Mavs.
But there is good news despite the sudden injury of Steph. Draymond is there and so is Klay. Wiggins might also be back soon after being ill.
There is also Wiseman who had been recalled from the G-League, he is playing 20 minutes per game there. GSW is not a one-man team, strength in numbers.

Imagine how awesome they would be today if they didn't started the season horribly. They started the season with like 10th or so after the first month. That means that if they had a great start, they had a chance to be at the top right now, maybe still below suns since they are doing great.

Eventually they found their footing and have been great ever since and they are showing promise of doing something great at playoffs as well, they have that talent. Playoffs however are a different beast, it is not the same as regular season and we all know it and I feel like there is a good chance they could end up with something that is unexpected for them when they face teams in the playoffs.

I'm so glad it's not a major injury, he'll miss a few games and maybe some time will pass before he fully recovers. But still, it's great that he'll be back on the field soon. If he had not been able to play in the playoffs, there would have been a huge crisis.
Golden State Warriors has very strong players, but without a chef this is not possible

New information about the seriousness of Ben Simmons' back injury has brought some concern into the Nets clubhouse.  If they don't start getting a lot of wins they'll be looking at facing off with the Toronto Raptors in the play-in tournament.  If that happens, they will be playing without Kyrie, who isn't eligible in Toronto or Brooklyn to play.  I don't think anybody on the Nets wants that to happen.  That brings a certain sense of urgency to them to even make the playoffs...  They are expecting to have Ben back for the last couple of games of the year before the post season starts, but I imagine it would take more than a couple of games to get him into the swing of things.  With KD on the team they should be ok, but they shouldn't ignore the issues headed their way either.

I thought there's nothing wrong with Ben Simmons, I mean his not even seen the floor and yet he has some injury now?

But if it's true then definitely, they will need to win and make the playoff with Durant. So I guess this will be another bad year for the Nets and so much for the big 3 or even big 2 right now. So much has happen, now Harden is gone and then Kyrie's drama is still not over.

[Pulsar77]

Philadelphia 76ers - Dallas Mavericks... This is one of the impressive games tonight. I will be supporting 76ers to win this as I see them closer to a win. And actually I have started having sympathy for the team too. Because they are a really solid team now by Harden's joining the team too. Him and Embiid both are doing a great work recently. Mavericks are very lucky to have Doncic because he is their scoring source in nearly all of their games. His role was really huge in the close win against Nets in their last game. If he plays similar to it, 76ers might be in big trouble too.

I'm also betting on the Philadelphia 76ers, I watched the NBA games on tv, but these days I decided to start posting on the NBA games and that's why I started doing some research to understand everything, I'm still a newbie in this, but reading the post but internet searches I'm starting to understand

That's good, you can definitely get ideas by reading up posts right here like the team and player updates before the game stats. You can also have several opinions on where to place a good bet to a specific game.
When you watch NBA games regularly, you will never have a hard time justifying how to use the odds on any matches. What you will need to research is the possible players who were out for that game.
Good luck to your NBA betting journey!

Simmons is definitely a strange player. First, he missed the bulk of the regular season due to mental problems, then he injured himself without even playing. To be honest, I even missed the moment when he managed to injure his back, although it doesn't matter.
By the way, the Nets are playing against the Blazers now, and I hope they will be able to win because they need at least three more wins to climb up the standings.

[OgNasty]

It’s like a sigh of relief every time the Lakers get a win these days. They pulled it off tonight in overtime against the Toronto Raptors. It took a triple double by Russell Westbrook and a 36 point near triple double performance from LeBron James to pull it off. I guess a win is a win but it seems like they have to work pretty hard to barely squeak out a W against teams they should easily beat. Sad to see the old guys continue to struggle. They need AD back in a hurry if they want to make it into the postseason.
