2024 NBA Season

[Baofeng]

Scottie Barnes and Trae Young are picked for All-Star game. They replace injured players Julius Randle and Joel Embiid.
Speaking of Scottie Barnes, look at that shot: https://twitter.com/WinkyChrist/status/1755415488132419586

Watching Sixers - Warriors game, first half was balanced but Warriors made 20 points difference in third quarter and close to win the game. Jaden Springer locked Curry in first half. It was first time since 2018 Curry couldn't score from the field in a half.

But Golden State has a huge lead in the game, down 5 minutes and I  think it's pick up basketball from now on. Just a matter on what will be the final score.

I had them at -3.5 at halftime, and I have a good chance that it might hit and give me the Dubs.

And there was a meme right now that when Wiggins heard that he was about to be traded for Bobby Portis, he scored 21 points in this game in 23 minutes, Lol. Steph with 9 points, I think it could have broken his record for scoring double digits, not sure how long it is.

Congratulations bro, nice catch there, you win. And so did I.  

It ended in a blowout and I think that Steve Kerr is satisfied with their performance today. It's an Embid-less 76ers so it is a must-win for the Golden State Warriors. A win on the road will probably lift the spirits of their players.
Jonathan Kuminga was very helpful again on both ends of the floor.
Regarding Wiggins, he was known as an inconsistent player even on his Timberwolves days. I thought that changed last year but here we go again. But I do believe he is growing, now is focusing more on rebounds and I think that will be good for the team. But still, they need that offensive power that he has and the talent to help spread the floor for Steph and Klay to do their thing.
With their bench stepping up their games, I think the Warriors are still solid although inconsistent.

Their next stop will be against the Indiana Pacers tomorrow. It will be a battle of speed, they will need their defenders to do a good job at defending the fast players of the Pacers.

LA Clippers vs New Orleans Pelicans up next. This will be tough for the Clippers as they are fatigue. I hope they win.

Philly is really missing Embiid. The way the Warriors have been playing I was afraid to put any money behind them. Interestingly enough Andrew Wiggins led the team in scoring tonight. That seems unusual.

The Pelicans are starting to blowout the Clippers right now. Not good for me since I picked the Clippers to win.

If Embiid can't return for the season, it might very safe to say their season is pretty much over, Tyrese Maxey sure as hell can't carry this team by himself. And as for the Warriors a good vintage Andrew Wiggins surely is one of the recipe they need for stretch to get it right and at least try to make a good run for the season!


Clippers are clawing their way back gradually here in the 2nd Quarter, the lead has been cut to a single digit 8 points lead, with less than a minute for the 1st half. Clippers still have their finger prints on this and it is still pretty much within reach. However, an healthy New Orleans Pelicans roster will be a force to reckon with come the post season!

I guess Wiggins is ready to make a case for himself so he won't get traded.
As I said before, not a fan of trading discussions about him. He still got a lot of potential and a good contract, no need to panic and put him on the trade block.
And about Embiid, I am with you of course. If he is out the season is over. They are missing so many points and rebounds with him off the field, they can't recover from that.
Sure when he is out Maxey can up his point considerably but obviously that wouldn't be enough to lift the 76ers on a contender level. Without their MVP they can be happy to survive the first round.

Yeah, but this is just one game that we have seen Wiggins played good and led the team in scoring. Just imagine though the duo of Wiggins and Kuminga if they can just be better just like what they used in the previous years, the Warriors could still be a contender to this year.

It's just that Joel is not in the middle, their main offensive weapon, take him out then the 76ers will have a problem to any team that they will face moving forward. Unfortunately, in this game, the Warriors took it to them and they don't have the answer for that fluid defense. They did a great defense on Curry, but as we have seen, suddenly Wiggins wake up in the year 2021-2022 season version of him.

Maxey has some good games and leading the 76ers without Joel Embiid. But I think it will be not enough for top teams as they can easily lock him up and it will make it difficult to look for another options. There is Harris, but then again, same case with Maxey, he is guardable and any good perimeter defender can stop him. So yeah, if Joel will not be back after the All Star Break, it might be over for the 76ers this season.

Tired legs for the Clippers, low scoring game that really favored the Pels. No one even scored 20+ for the Clippers, while the Pelicans had Zion and CJ 46 points between them and add Ingram to the equation and some role players, Pelicans winning by 10+ points.

I do agree but maybe the Warriors are looking for his performance from last season and the current one, as he is inconsistent, and not reliable anymore just like when he start his year with the Warriors and then becoming a All-Star for the first time and winning a ring with them.

But I guess there is also the case for Klay Thompson, bad season for him, same with Wiggins. If only this two, can bring their A-game again in the second half of the season and not rely to Steph, in even scoring 60 points and still take a big L, it could be a different Warriors, and not a below .500 team.

[Finestream]

Sixers have been struggling. What they created with Joel Embiid has been slowly diminishing.

3 consecutive losses at home via blowout, this team are sure not gonna qualify in the playoffs. Embiid's contribution are just too huge that the Sixers can't afford to lose, unfortunately Embiid hasn't been so healthy in every season he played, so every effort they made to start with a good standing will just be wasted. I'm thinking now if they'll continue to keep Embiid, they can't expect a championship team, and maybe Embiid will be traded in the future.

IMO, Embiid is like the Davis of Pelicans, when got traded, he won a championship because he doesn't have to carry the team by himself.

No one is talking about how well the Pistons played against the Sacramento Kings tonight. Detroit Pistons better when Cade Cunningham isn't playing. Check how many times Cade Cunningham has not played this season and how many times the Pistons have won without him playing.
Also Jaden Ivey had an amazing game scoring a career high of 37 points with 19 of those in the fourth quarter. The Kings didn't play good defense and missed many chances.

King aren't really good in playing defense, that's their weakness, but they are good offensively. However, that game, not only they are outrebounded but their 3 point shooting is very low as well. It's impressive that the Pistons have 100% from FT - they were 22-22, compared to the Sacramento Kings who are only 15-22. Fox really struggled big time in this game, 5-14 and only made 12 points.

Yeah, but it was a big upset by the Pistons, I guess another game that is very unpredictable and I do hope that you didn't include it in your parlay bet? As lately I have been seen you betting on multi-leg and sometimes as single game could have destroyed it for you. Anyhow, just bad night for the Kings, just like Curry just scoring 9 points against the Sixers, but they still win. Kings though is not known for their defense, they are more of a run and gun team and very quick on transition because of Fox and Sabonis can also run for a big guy. Ivey lead the Pistons with a huge 3 point performance, and there are other players too, who help the Pistons get this huge win in their own homecourt. And for sure fans are frustrated seeing your team losing to Pistons.

This would easily call betting on the Sacramento Kings on their next game. I like this team actually but there's no guarantee that they'll win in every game, what I like them is that they would bounce back after every loss. Maybe they are a little tired as well because that was their first game after a long 7 games road games.

Next game, they'll be hosting the defending champion, this will be interesting on how they'll bounce back after losing from a team that is already at the bottom of standing. They loss to the worst team, now they are up against the best team.

They need to win against the Nuggets this time since there are tendency for them would play in the NBA playoffs this season since they're both consistent in winning and they really are holding strong not to fall out of the top 6 this time. Let's see what kind of plan they will execute the day after tomorrow in order to win against the defending champion because it is a crucial game to test since they might not get a chance to compete against this team with their star players still healthy this season. The Sacramento Kings were devastated and easily knocked out last season and they won't give up that easily this time we will see.

Well, I am pretty sure that this is not the fault of only one player. Yes, one player not playing as well as he should definitely is going to affect the team a lot. Especially if he is as important as Embiid.

I am honestly also not confident that this team will be able to qualify for the qualifiers. And that is surly going to be a slap in the face for them. Because almost everyone expects them to do so. Or maybe it is just me I don't know. But I actually expected them to qualify for the playoffs.  If they don't it is really going to be a surprise for me at least.

Embiid had a knee surgery, expect that he'll miss the remainder of the season.

NBA MVP and 76ers center Joel Embiid had knee surgery. His injury could affect the US Olympic team

Well, obviously this team will struggle as I haven't remembered in the past that they reach the playoffs without Joel Embiid. And that time, they were stronger as they had Harden on the team, but now there's no other superstar that are on the level of Harden who had a lot of playoffs experience and had played in the NBA Finals. The only one I see that could lead the team is Maxey, but he is still young and lack of experience.

But Golden State has a huge lead in the game, down 5 minutes and I  think it's pick up basketball from now on. Just a matter on what will be the final score.

I had them at -3.5 at halftime, and I have a good chance that it might hit and give me the Dubs.

And there was a meme right now that when Wiggins heard that he was about to be traded for Bobby Portis, he scored 21 points in this game in 23 minutes, Lol. Steph with 9 points, I think it could have broken his record for scoring double digits, not sure how long it is.

This could also be applicable for D'lo because when he heard that he was included in the trading block, he suddenly played like a superstar.  I don't know what the implication is, could it be they want to be traded or wanted to stay at their current team? Regardless, i think these two players are just to inconsistent, they aren't the players a team needed in order to win a championship.

Although for Wiggins, he had proven by winning a championship, but after that his season wasn't impressive, so I guess the Warriors had already made their decision to trade him and get some fresh players that they could use  to secure a playoff spot.

There are mixed news online, some source tells he is ruled out for the season, while others says he will missed 6-8 weeks. It's hard to expect that he'll come back, I think at this early, we should be ready of the possibility that he will not be able to come back anymore and will just be preparing for the next season once he healed up.

Embiid is on the MVP race this season, if he was able to remain healthy, he could win the MVP competition, but here he goes again. I'm not blaming him being out again, we know it could happen so we have to accept it. Good thing Zion still stays healthy until now, this could be his longest season played so far.

I feel bad for Embiid who is once again contending for an MVP title. Also for Nick Nurse who proved to be an able coach, turning the 76ers into one of the very best in the league especially after superstar James Harden left. And of course to the whole 76ers team. They stepped up and became better.

But there is still a chance for Embiid to recover this season. Maybe it depends on the development of his healing process. There are rumors that they will be looking for a big man because they are still planning to get into the playoffs. Experienced big man Kelly Olynyk from the Utah Jazz is on target.

But there is still a chance for Embiid to recover this season. Maybe it depends on the development of his healing process.

But we can't expect the same Embiid on that short span of time, and might aggravate his injury if they will force to play him just to lead the team. They have eto remember that Embiid is still a valuable player, they have invested lot on him, so they need to protect as they can trade him in case they'll opt to rebuild.

There are rumors that they will be looking for a big man because they are still planning to get into the playoffs. Experienced big man Kelly Olynyk from the Utah Jazz is on target.

They should be, that has to be the job. Maybe  Kelly Olynyk is an experience big man but he is nowhere near to Embiid in terms  of talent, he is not even the main big man of the Jazz, he can help but not a lot to change this team from a struggling team to a playoff team.
