When Anthon Davis is doing well, they can easily win the game and with the help of his teammates, it would be possible for them to maintain or get to the upper spot until the NBA playoffs. Every team that has the chance to get to the number 6 spot will really play hard to win their remaining games and so as the Lakers when LBJ will return. I think is a good idea to make him rest for a while since they were really getting more wins anyway and that's really pretty good but I think they want him to sync with the team so that they won't have any problem playing in the NBA playoffs.
I can't imagine how strong the Lakers are when AD won't be injury prone anymore and playing at this kind of level he's showing tonight. When AD becomes unstoppable, it would be much easier for his teammates to score anywhere on the floor. The trade was really a successful one as they have acquired someone who could legitimately drop 5+ 3s per game. Can't really wait when LeBron comes back to the game, let's see how effective he is as a leader of this new Laker team. The big test is when Lebron goes back to the equation and then a healthy Davis, that will be awesome to see how good the Lakers will be. They have move forward with the Russell Westbrook trade, and they are doing good right now except that Lebron is sitting. And so with that, they could be one of the under rated them when Lebron goes back. I mean it's a resurgent, but still a long way to go. The Playoff will be a big test for them. That will be the question if they remain as consistent as this when Lebron came back since for sure those performing players when Lebron is away will get less touch of the ball when LBJ back in the rotation. But if they can make this team work out with complete rooster like healthy Lebron and AD then this team is so scary provably this is a team to beat but to early to tell about this since they are aiming for playoff spot and hope they get that because playoff is more fun to watch when there's LbJ around. Yes, definitely, we all wanted to see LBJ together with the rest of the gang, but he is enjoying last night games. The best thing to do right now for them is just really continue their momentum, they are in the log jam for the 8-10 spot right now, so every game is a must win. And talking about their win tonight, it was good to see Showtime again, 14-0 at the start and they never look back. AD, Malik and D'Lo play like there is no other games, need that same energy for their next game.

In their next game, the Lakers will be up against the Rockets, who recently beat the Celtics. The Rockets' confidence is quite high now, but the Lakers are also playing with consistency, so I kind of like their chances to win on the road again. LeBron isn't needed yet, so the squad can continue to work their best to maintain their current good standing. As for Davis, I don't think the Rockets' defense will be able to limit him. This game will likely be a battle of offenses most of the time.
Yeah, I think it's a morale boosting game for the Rockets. But I think the Lakers have a good chance to win, no offense to the Rockets team, but the Lakers has more good players in their lineup and they have the experienced. But one thing that the Rockets has the advantage in this game is that it will be in their home court. So if Lakers will start hot just like their last game, they might win this game. And on the other hand, they shouldn't allow the Rockets to take a big lead as well because trying to play a catch up is very hard to do as they might have a tire legs entering the 4th.

But the fact is, I'm still not that convinced since Steph Curry returned because the Bucks and Suns that they defeated just recently are the teams who lacks their core players, Giannis and Durant respectively. Before that, when they are still on the road, they cannot even defeat the Grizzlies who doesn't have Adams, Clarke and Ja Morant which makes them so bad on the road. Now that they are back on their road games, which is 5 games in total, let's see if they can defeat those teams because the way I way I see it, the easiest one is the Houston Rockets.
It's gonna be hard for the depending champs, specially they don't have Wiggins in the lineup and how their championship team has been broken this year. So we will see how they are going to fair in this 5 road games. I think 3 of that games could be winnable for them. Yes, that one too. The Warriors may have some struggles along the way as the regular season is closing and the same thing in the upcoming playoffs as even the Warriors management are not that sure if Wiggins can return this season. By the way, he is not injured or something like that, he's been away for more than a month now due for some personal reasons, it wasn't specified why but the Wiggins family and the Warriors are keeping it under wraps. Yes, we can only speculate what is going on behind basketball to Andrew Wiggins, it might be really personal. But the Warriors management understands him and that's why they are giving him space to explore whatever the problem is. And that is good as well that the Warriors are not telling anything the public about the issues that Wiggins is going through in his life. As Curry said, ""Life is bigger than basketball." So let's leave it that way. Yeah, life goes on with the Warriors and they have to stick with everyone right now.

Overall, the Lakers are a good team to watch out now because after the trade deadline, they are coming from a team who can't get a play-in spot to now a team who might at least enter the playoffs. They have players who are good on offense, but at the same time, they also have players who are also good on defense. Davis on this game lead his team with a double-double 35 points and 17 rebounds. Beasley and Russell combined for 41 points.
I'm a bit surprised TBH that the Lakers ended up winning by only 15 points. I mean we've seen the lead of the Lakers go as high as 30+ points. Well, the good thing is that they didn't let the Pelicans get the momentum from the start until the end even though it's their home court. I just hope that they will win on their next game and will be on .500.
Another great win by the Lakers! Haters are going to hate, but they are showing us they are a completely different team. Winning on the road is difficult, but they managed to do it against the Pelicans and have dominated them. They are a great team, and we will no longer talk about their struggles, as they are demonstrating excellent chemistry that some of us did not expect after the trade deadline. NBA is so strange sometimes. They can't beat the Knicks (which is is without Jalen Brunson and on the 2nd game of a back to back) at home but on the road they beat NO leading by 35 points(!!!) at half time. This team is so inconsistent, even if they somehow reach the playoffs or play-ins they won't survive ( I hope ). May sound like a hater, but Lakers, no thanks. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) They couldn't beat the Knicks because the Knicks are just a better team this year. The Knicks road record is significantly better than either the Lakers home or road record. The Lakers are just not a good team period. They will win some games but it's ugly basketball if ypu watch it. There is no team ball just individually playing. If enough guys have a good game then they can pull out a win. But they are not going anywhere anytime soon.

The Ja Morant story just keeps getting crazier and crazier. Noow some are speculating he might be shut down for the season as he goes to counseling. Seems like he's doing it to try and save his Powerade deal but I think that ship has already sailed. Whatever he decides to do, I hope he gets himself figured out in time to return to the playoffs. What a shame this situation is for the Grizzlies who finally have a good team and were looking to make a deep playoff run this year. Steven Adams must be pissed off about the whole situation.
He's expected to lose $40M from that $50k strip club party that he went to. Such a crazy action resulted in a crazy dismissal that he'd never like. It will serve as a warning for most of the players that has a lot of deals and sponsorships and contracts that have been signed with. This is such an expensive lesson for him and I guess he have just save a lot of other players for this trouble because they wouldn't do the same as what he did although there were some other players that have been doing such. Nike must have been embarrassed replacing Kyrie's deal over Ja. A lot is surfacing now over Ja's behavior and I know he's better than that to figure things out if he wants this career in the NBA, I mean he's already known and he should have shown some class. I guess the suspension will serve as a lesson but we never know what's on Ja's head though after that, I root him to have some progress.

And still there is no timetable for his return, but we should consider him not returning for this season, I mean they should allow him to play if everything is ok with him, otherwise if could be that he is still not mentally stable and continue his antics outside basketball. Grizzlies are playoff bound, but we all know that they needed Ja, last year they almost make it but he got injured against the Warriors. Now they have a good chance, but this unfortunately events resurface.

Now they have a good chance, but this unfortunately events resurface. Since there is no timetable for him to return, it's hard to predict when he will return, and will play with his team. Well, the good thing is that the Grizzlies are still playing well even without him... at least for the remaining games of the regular season. We know that the playoffs will be a different story. Currently, they are at the 2nd spot again, but only 1 game behind the 3rd seeded Kings. I'm thinking this scenario. What if the Grizzlies falls down to the 3rd spot before the playoffs and the Lakers somewhat manage to go to the 6th seed. I mean we can't underestimate the Lakers right now, and many will agree if I say that they are a championship contender with their current roster. What if we see Grizzlies-Lakers in the 3-6 seed? Is there a chance for the Grizzlies to win against a team like the Lakers? Anyway, congratulations to the Milwaukee Bucks as they are the first team to clinch the playoffs with their win against the Suns just a few hours ago.

Sure, the team and the league need to take action against him and Powerade is trying to become a household brand so I can understand why they are upset. Nike though probably doesn’t mind this behavior. It’s in line with the “culture” they are targeting, whereas Kyrie’s comments go against the culture and that can’t be tolerated by Nike.

Mental health is of course a very serious thing for any athlete. After all, a player will only play well if his mental situation is good as well. Any kind of sport is as mental as it is physical. Him not being available is going to be a block for the game. But of course, they will have to find a way around this. The grizzlies are performing well right now. It will be a little hard without him, but it is what it is.

So, Bucks swept Suns in regular season and became the first team to reach 50 wins. Suns actually was in the game until the last five minutes but Bucks played ending better, as usual. Giannis' domination, Brook Lopez's paint superiority is impressive. Ingles and Crowder's bench contribution is important. Jrue Holiday was cold behind the three but made some important points in last minutes. Even without Middleton, Allen and Dragic they are good. Bucks lost only 2 games in last 2 months. It looks like they don't give up first place in the East.

In their next game, the Lakers will be up against the Rockets, who recently beat the Celtics. The Rockets' confidence is quite high now, but the Lakers are also playing with consistency, so I kind of like their chances to win on the road again. LeBron isn't needed yet, so the squad can continue to work their best to maintain their current good standing. As for Davis, I don't think the Rockets' defense will be able to limit him. This game will likely be a battle of offenses most of the time.
Yeah, I think it's a morale boosting game for the Rockets. But I think the Lakers have a good chance to win, no offense to the Rockets team, but the Lakers has more good players in their lineup and they have the experienced. But one thing that the Rockets has the advantage in this game is that it will be in their home court. So if Lakers will start hot just like their last game, they might win this game. And on the other hand, they shouldn't allow the Rockets to take a big lead as well because trying to play a catch up is very hard to do as they might have a tire legs entering the 4th. I agree, Rockets played a great game and they showed how good they could be in the future with that game, and they showed what kind of players they have and their talents and all of that. However, right now they are not that good at all and they should wait to grow for a few more seasons before they can be good. On the other hand, Lakers is not that much of a great team this season neither, look how low they are ranked already and they are missing their best player Lebron James as well, so there isn't really any guarantee that they may win, Lakers could very well lose this game as well because without Lebrons help, they are not really that much better than Rockets if you ask me.

Ja Morant is surely out for the whole season. At least that's what seems to be the situation right now. Mental health is of course a very serious thing for any athlete. After all, a player will only play well if his mental situation is good as well. Any kind of sport is as mental as it is physical.
Him not being available is going to be a block for the game. But of course, they will have to find a way around this. The grizzlies are performing well right now. It will be a little hard without him, but it is what it is.
I also thought Morant would miss the rest of the season and even the playoffs, but it looks like he got off easy this time since the NBA website officially announced that they have decided to suspend Morant for only 8 games, which means he could be back on the floor by March 20. It's even surprising that Silver decided to give Morant another chance after such an irresponsible thing he did. Let's hope that Morant learns a lesson after this.

Yes, but it's more than that, I think the Grizzlies Management will have to take control of the situation now. I mean they have invested so much on Morant that they have to ensure that we he get back on the floor, his head is clear already. It really show that he really needs help at this point. For the Lakers latest win, yes, really good to see that they are back, but then again, might not be enough if Lebron is not going to play. They need him in the floor specially coming playoff. They need his leadership, more than anything is.

The Ja Morant story just keeps getting crazier and crazier. Noow some are speculating he might be shut down for the season as he goes to counseling. Seems like he's doing it to try and save his Powerade deal but I think that ship has already sailed. Whatever he decides to do, I hope he gets himself figured out in time to return to the playoffs. What a shame this situation is for the Grizzlies who finally have a good team and were looking to make a deep playoff run this year. Steven Adams must be pissed off about the whole situation.
And still there is no timetable for his return, but we should consider him not returning for this season, I mean they should allow him to play if everything is ok with him, otherwise if could be that he is still not mentally stable and continue his antics outside basketball. Grizzlies are playoff bound, but we all know that they needed Ja, last year they almost make it but he got injured against the Warriors. Now they have a good chance, but this unfortunately events resurface. Ja Morant is surely out for the whole season. At least that's what seems to be the situation right now. Mental health is of course a very serious thing for any athlete. After all, a player will only play well if his mental situation is good as well. Any kind of sport is as mental as it is physical. Him not being available is going to be a block for the game. But of course, they will have to find a way around this. The grizzlies are performing well right now. It will be a little hard without him, but it is what it is. He ended up only getting 8 games 6 of which already passed. So he is eligible to play starting Monday night against Dallas. Unsure if Memphis will throw him out there. But make no mistake losing ja means losing money for the NBA, he is one of the new faces and makes the sport entertaining. They won't push down one of theor cash cows unless it's something really bad.

He's expected to lose $40M from that $50k strip club party that he went to. Such a crazy action resulted in a crazy dismissal that he'd never like. It will serve as a warning for most of the players that has a lot of deals and sponsorships and contracts that have been signed with. This is such an expensive lesson for him and I guess he have just save a lot of other players for this trouble because they wouldn't do the same as what he did although there were some other players that have been doing such. Nike must have been embarrassed replacing Kyrie's deal over Ja. A lot is surfacing now over Ja's behavior and I know he's better than that to figure things out if he wants this career in the NBA, I mean he's already known and he should have shown some class. I guess the suspension will serve as a lesson but we never know what's on Ja's head though after that, I root him to have some progress. When his name pumped up not just because of his statements but through his performances, he really made his way to the top by getting that attention he deserved but not coming to this point that he's into a controversial strip clubbing since this is just like anyone's attitude and activities there. Well, he probably have forgotten that he's got a household name in the league and sponsors want him to represent him as he is like what he's inside the court and not outside the court. The damage has been done and aside from those companies that have a contract with him, probably there have been potential deals that were cancelled after the news broke out about him.

When Anthon Davis is doing well, they can easily win the game and with the help of his teammates, it would be possible for them to maintain or get to the upper spot until the NBA playoffs. Every team that has the chance to get to the number 6 spot will really play hard to win their remaining games and so as the Lakers when LBJ will return. I think is a good idea to make him rest for a while since they were really getting more wins anyway and that's really pretty good but I think they want him to sync with the team so that they won't have any problem playing in the NBA playoffs.
I can't imagine how strong the Lakers are when AD won't be injury prone anymore and playing at this kind of level he's showing tonight. When AD becomes unstoppable, it would be much easier for his teammates to score anywhere on the floor. The trade was really a successful one as they have acquired someone who could legitimately drop 5+ 3s per game. Can't really wait when LeBron comes back to the game, let's see how effective he is as a leader of this new Laker team. I guess we can really say that the Lakers have won the recent trade and adding D'Lo, Vanderbilt and Beasley to their current roster was indeed beneficial to the team's offense and defense. We can see it on their stats and it's really incomparable because the disparity before and after the trade is just so evident. And for the Lakers who have AD on a healthy level gives them much hope that they can participate the upcoming playoffs and might get as far as 6th seed before the season will end.

That extra spot at 9th and 10th is not really that big of a deal. Could someone replace the 8th? or even 7th? Sure why not, I am not saying that's impossible, but at the same time, do you think that team would see second round? I highly doubt that it could happen, we are going to end up with the first and second seed destroying them, possibly sweeping them so it doesn't even matter if Lakers goes to playoffs, because they will lose. The very best case being a first round exit, the worst being play-in loss is not really the way Lebron should have his last years, Lakers either needs to do something, or at least let him go to a good team.
At this point after 20 years I wouldn't really be against him joining Warriors, that would be super fun, it would have soooooo much drama, him playing against them all those years, having a 3-1 comeback, losing many times, and then suddenly joining them and getting a ring with them? That would be a narrative we will talk for decades without a doubt. And that's all NBA is about, entertainment, you could love it, or hate that move, but you would talk about it without a doubt and that's what matters, getting viewership, even if it is out of hate. People hated Kobe all his career, but we still rank him high, possibly third behind lebron and mj, just because someone is hated, doesn't mean its not good for the sport.

So, Bucks swept Suns in regular season and became the first team to reach 50 wins. Suns actually was in the game until the last five minutes but Bucks played ending better, as usual. Giannis' domination, Brook Lopez's paint superiority is impressive. Ingles and Crowder's bench contribution is important. Jrue Holiday was cold behind the three but made some important points in last minutes. Even without Middleton, Allen and Dragic they are good. Bucks lost only 2 games in last 2 months. It looks like they don't give up first place in the East.
Right, I thought that the Suns might pull some upset win as they try to fight and make a comeback in the 4th, even taking a 3 point lead with 10 minutes to go. Booker is hot, but when they inserted Ayton and that 2 crucial misses of him, very easy shot, the Bucks took their chances and score quick 4 points and that's it. The Suns was not able to recover from that and the Bucks steadily increase their lead with Giannis having a mismatch, same with Brook Lopez inside the paint. And they solidify their number 1 position in the NBA right now with their 50 games win this season. For Ja, Powerade has pulled its ads featuring him, but we are not sure if Coca-Cola has severed their tie with Morant. Maybe they just have to pull it out right now because of the controversy surrounding him.

Suns (4th) and Pelicans (12th) have only 4 win difference, that's super close. I don't remember any season like that recently. Let me show you how close it is with an example. Mavericks were almost certain to make the playoffs but they've taken 3 losses in a row and are currently out of the play-off table. If Lakers match with Mavericks there's really no point to be in play-in tournament. But if they match with Thunder or Twolves they have a fairly good chance. That doesn't change the fact that they would be swept by Nuggets or Grizzlies anyway. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

The NBA is now over with their investigation on Ja Morant's case and found out something that will be much helpful to the Grizzlies situation in the upcoming days. Here's more about Ja Morant's situation: Ja Morant's absence will continue.
The Memphis Grizzlies star has been suspended eight games for conduct detrimental to the league, the NBA announced Wednesday.
In its release, the league said its investigation into a video appearing to show Morant with a gun at a Denver nightclub "did not conclude that the gun at issue belonged Morant, was brought by him into the nightclub or was displayed by him beyond a brief period."
Morant will be eligible to return March 20, with the suspension including games he's already missed. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10068147-ja-morant-suspended-8-games-nba-says-gun-in-video-didnt-belong-to-grizzlies-starIn contrary for the most speculations of Ja Morant regarding that live he did while holding a gun in a club somewhere in Denver, the NBA found Ja Morant not guilty for bringing a gun in the aircraft towards Denver as NBA prohibits carrying deadly firearms and drugs to any NBA property. Well, I cannot say that I'm glad for Morant because even if he's not guilty, he should know by now that any selfish deeds always will result into a heavy consequence especially if it's proven guilty.
