2025 NBA Season

[ingiltere]

Devin booker with 58! points, damn man. That dude is a great scorer, a pure scorer at that and he definitely increases is arsenal a lot as well he is scoring all kinds of ways.

Great production and was a scoring machine but that were because his teammates just allowed him to take those shots as they are doing some rally.

Except for the last part of the last quarter, Booker shot well and shot with high percentage. He could have passed 60 but he didn't spend the last part of the game very well. Overall Phoenix was very good and it's a great job to make such a comeback. Late in the game, Chris Paul took charge and scored important points. The last minutes were like a game of chess with free throws and timeouts. It was one of the best matches of Booker's career. Phoenix needed a win like this. Losing 5 games in a row is not something expected from this team, luckily they started to catch a new series.

On the other hand The Pelicans are playing above expectations. It looks like they will end this season in a good place. Zion Williamson and CJ McCollum are performing very well, but I think there should be a few more important players in the rotation. If they can make a nice trade, they'll be more assertive.

Devin Booker pointed out in the post-game interview the contribution that his teammates did to win that game. Those open screens to give him or Chris Paul an opened shot deserves the credit. That was a tough comeback and what the Suns did is to focus on their main scorer and just allow him to freely take those shots while they are trying to give him an open space away from his defenders.

I smell a good rivalry with these 2 teams. Hope to see them facing each other in the playoffs. That will be a good series match.

Ok it seems that the Warriors has responded on the game against the Raptors on the road.

Jordan Poole erupted for 43 big points and then Klay and Draymond too scoring 17 points a piece. This is the Warrior that we all know of, they still have that championship DNA and it's about time that this 3 will have to make a huge game in order to win games without Curry and Andrew Wiggins.


But still the story is that the Magic, getting the numbers against the Boston Celtics, winning back to back against the East champion last year and now having a big 6 game winning streak of their own.

Crazy night in Denver.
Crazy Nikola "Joker" Jokic putting in some numbers in his stats. Huge triple-double. 40 points, 27 rebounds, and 10 assists.
Most points in a triple-double record.
March 1968 Wilt Chamberlain 53/32/14. I am not even alive on that day yet.  We just witnessed another record-breaking performance from the Joker.
Despite Jamal Murray having a rough time with his shooting, the Nuggets still won against the Charlotte Hornets. Good game.

LA Lakers won against Washington Wizards. The plan was to put the game in a blowout, rest their core players for the game tomorrow against the Phoenix Suns but the Wizards kept on fighting until the end. So close that Lebron almost lost the ball at the last possession that could've been a disaster for them to lose the game.
I doubt the spreads are covered today. Nets versus Pistons was also a tight game, the same with Nuggets versus Hornets. I think both games started with -10.5.

Golden State defeated Toronto 126-110 in the match that stephan curry did not play, and it was their 3rd away win this year. Jordan Poole was the star of the game with 43 points in Golden State. Draymond Green and Klay Thopmson also contributed to the win. Los Angeles Lakers also managed to beat the Washington Wizards at home, albeit hard. Anthony Davis did not play in this match due to injury. LeBron James was the architect of the victory with 33 points.

I wish we will see that kind of consistency from Poole, honestly, I didn't expect them to win because of their bad performance in their previous game, but it was so surprising that they not only beat the Raptors, but they also dominated them. Poole is just inconsistent, that's why it's hard to trust the Warriors, it's good to trust them if they are a heavy underdog just like their game against the Raps.

That's the old Poole, and that's the reason why he was given a max contract by the Warriors. For those who are thinking that Poole should be traded, you guys are wrong because when Curry will retire, they have Poole to take his place as their main man. That's a badly needed win and they have a good one on the road, so congrats to the team and for those who bet on the moneyline.

Poole's contributions today are huge, but he needs to have more like that to fill the shoe of Steph. They needed to work hard and make
more wins to make sure of their position for the next round.

I like the way they play today, taking shots that have more confidence and you will see from them
the hungriness to win, they are playing with pride and they are fighting together as a team.

They have been playing great these past few days and without AD I thought they will gonna messed up once again but they still keep fighting and doing all they can to slowly increase their spot and surely not get more losses before AD will return. It was all good when he successfully defended Kuzma from that 3-point line because if ever he made that shot, then it would be a big embarrassment for LBJ. In the end, Kuzma is getting some reactions from fans that he is really loyal to the Lakers.

I'm not impressed with how they played, yes they won the game but Wizards are going to be the worst team this season as they are in a cold losing streak, currently at 10. Lakers has to show that they dominate a weak team while stay competitive against great teams, that's the only way they will be back in the playoff spot.

Right, that numbers though, worthy of another MVP this season for Jokic?

And he seems to be getting better and better every season isn't it? Magic winning against a Tatum less Boston, 2-0 for Orlando now against the best team in the West. GSW with Jordan Poole 43 points carry the weight on his shoulder winning against Toronto on the road. T'Wolves big 150 points against the struggling Bulls. If someone has bet on the Over for this game, easy win in the middle of the 4th.

That would be his 3rd consecutive win if he will still get that MVP this season, and yet most of us still not think that Jokic is the best player in the world, isn't it the best gauge to determine if you are the best play or not?

I know we have our own basis, but we cannot deny that Jokic as a big man is very talented, and now that Murray is back, maybe they will have a longer journey in the playoffs, who knows they might win their first championship.

Hornets are in an 8-game losing streak now. It's the second worst right now with the Wizards losing 10 straight which is just awful. Both of them are in the 12th and 15th spot respectively.

Jokic is just amazing. How he changed the playstyle of bigs throughout the years and how he is good at everything from passing to shooting to his court vision. He can do everything and aside from that, he doesn't get injured that much. I don't know the last time that he got injured. It just shows that he is also not fragile and that's why he got a super max contract with the Nuggets.

MVP season for Jokic? It's too early I guess but looking on his season averages, he might be considered one of the candidates again if he will maintain or at least have better stats than the current. An almost triple double average for him this currently. 25.2 PPG, 10.9 RPG and 9.0 APG. Who will not be amazed on that numbers and he's a center and not a point guard. That assist average alone is just amazing.

For me, yes, but I doubt the NBA would give it to him easily for the 3rd time. Politics inside NBA or they will just be rougher about it and there's actually a lot of discussion about this happening all over Youtube from ESPN analysts to other sports-based media outlets.
I think Luka is the favorite right now and next to him is Tatum. Whoever will win definitely deserves it because they are all great players. It will go down on how "value" will be defined.

And he seems to be getting better and better every season isn't it? Magic winning against a Tatum less Boston, 2-0 for Orlando now against the best team in the West.

Jordan Poole got me excited again to watch GSW. I won't be expecting anything from Klay yet but if Poole can keep this consistency while Curry is out then the Warriors might have a chance to pull out some wins while they are Curry-less.

A win is a win and that's count when trying to push your chance to the next round, I see your point and they needed to stay competitive
while fighting for that spot.

Good thing that they are now letting role players to step up and play with the system, a good help for AD and LeBron to keep
the winning chance increases.

Most of the time, team is being gauge with how they play and win against the strong teams, nothing to say about that.

What kind of consistency are you looking for? Like 40+ a game? There's only a handful of players who can do that hehe. He seems the type of player that excels when he's given more chance or time with the ball so it's up to the coach to take advantage of that. Hard to come up with big numbers when he's not the main guy task with most of the scoring.

Poole has been pretty decent this month actually.

My heart skipped when the Wizards almost stole the ball from Lebron. Good thing they recovered and secured the win. The Lakers' win is the last match that would complete my parlay. The lakers won and I also won my parlay.

That's the old Poole, and that's the reason why he was given a max contract by the Warriors. For those who are thinking that Poole should be traded, you guys are wrong because when Curry will retire, they have Poole to take his place as their main man.

That is one way to silence the haters. It is good that he balled when the Warriors desperately needed him. He is given a good contract and this game shows that he can be relied upon when the team needs him to take over. I actually was not able to watch the game, but I watched the highlights. If Poole can sustain this high level of performance, he really is will be the face of the Warriors in the future.

For me, if Westbrick keeps on targeting triple-doubles it will not be enough, for me, I think do not target a triple-double but a huge output on scoring, like he recently have against the Nuggets it was an impressive triple-double but he needs to do more, and right now Anthony Davis has a foot injury that may cause some losing game for the Lakers but if Russell Westbrick would keep up his triple-double target it will not be enough I think he needs to do more on the scoring because Anthony Davis may return on December 19,

I think scoring isn't Westbrook's strong suit. Nevertheless, his ability to grab a lot of rebounds and make a lot of assists can be very useful for the Lakers, but only in those moments when Russ makes the minimum number of turnovers per game. As for Davis' absence, Thomas Bryant might partially replace him if he continues to perform as well as he did in the previous game against the Nuggets.

I barely see Westbrook create more than 20 points lately since he is now in the second unit. His best contributions are from his assists and rebounds. This is good since he keeps feeding Lebron and AD or anyone who is hot in the Lakers to keep them hot. 

Even if Westbrook is not a scoring machine anymore and barely create 20+ points, he's still one of the huge reasons why the Lakers got an improvement lately. Yes, it did start when he fully embraced his role as the 6th man and trusted coach Ham's decision that he's more valuable coming from the 2nd unit. Also, coach Ham started utilizing the former Wizards, Thomas Bryant as their center while Davis is having some issues and the results were better because they aren't that much having a hard time when Davis is not around.

Devin booker with 58! points, damn man. That dude is a great scorer, a pure scorer at that and he definitely increases is arsenal a lot as well he is scoring all kinds of ways. I am not guessing that he will be playing without injury long enough to be in the top 5, but his trajectory looks like he could be in the company of the greatest about scoring when it is all said and done, he has been scoring a lot of points for a long time now, he broke that 70 point game so many years ago, dude is great.

I guess that Suns also felt great about beating Pelicans after they had a fight about Zions dunk last game, which was stupid if you ask me, there are no extra added hidden rules.

Yes, kudos for Devin Booker for lifting his team especially during the times that they needed it badly and quite desperate enough to have a win but that's the exact opposite if he will get injured because somehow, it is automatic that the Phoenix Suns will crumble without him on the hardwood. CP3 is good, no doubt for that man but his utility can't be maximized if there's no Devin Booker and that is already proven.
