2025 NBA Season

[karabiber]

Denver Nuggets are having a great performance in this series. After losing the first two games of the series at home, the Denver Nuggets won both games on the road and now have a huge advantage by winning Game 5. It's been a great series.

The Nuggets are showing us real basketball in this series and we love this game. In the first two games, the Timberwolves defense was called the best ever. The Timberwolves looked out of ideas in this game after the series tie and probably realized that whatever they did was futile. Jokic's impact on the game is huge. It's like a monster. People don’t realize now that maybe we are lucky to watch the best basketball player ever and the most complete basketball player ever. In my opinion, the team that wins this series will be the champion.

They study and adjust the right way I guess that's why they are now dominating the Wolves and experienced wise they got a better edge against their opponents and like what you mentioned Jokic is a complete sets, a big dominating player who uses skills and talents that allow him and his co-players to work together and overrun their opponents,  a complete package if you look on their system,  sharing the ball or pushing it on a one on one but the help is always their plus the trust they've established from one another.

If denver somehow goes back-to-back it will officially be the beginning of a new dynasty in the NBA.

They have already made history last year and they're going on with their center of course, Jokic.

They've made a new meta in the NBA that it shouldn't be coming anymore from a point guard, forward but it all goes with a center that's very flexible and all around.

A better view of his teammates when he's got the ball, and can go almost everything and dependable.

They most likely become the next team to win multiple championships in the few years to come since they are dominating every game right now, especially in this playoff series where they managed to win and get a huge comeback against the Timberwolves. they are only one win away to save their spot in the Western Conference Finals which we all know will gonna be easy for them. Before game 3 of this series, I thought Denver was done but they managed to shut down the Timberwolves and make a huge 3-0 run after they lost 2 games from the start, and the Timberwolves right now are clearly confused about what happening to them.

It's a bit crazy to see that Bronny James only measured at 6'1" for the NBA after being listed as 6'4" his entire adult career.  That makes me wonder a little bit if Bryce is really as tall as they say he is.  In any event, this is more bad news for Bronny's career.  He was just one of the worst players on a bad college team and now he's going to end up being a high draft pick in the hopes that LeBron will join him in the future.  I'll be surprised if Bronny ever plays in an NBA game during the actual season, but we're about to see how far the name James will take him.

The expectation is there because he's a son of Lebron James but stats wise, I am not into it but with what I have seen, he doesn't have good stats during his college days. But still, despite that he's already having a good life thanks to his dad, he's still trying to make up for himself and with the media does right now on him, it seems this NBA combine is giving him the exposure that he needs. I think that he's already prospected by some teams because whoever gets him, will get his dad probably for the last season. So it's gonna be a package but is it going to be worth it for them? I've heard that Atlanta is trying to make space for the two, I dunno or probably that was just an assumed comment by a stranger that I've remembered.

I don’t know if that Atlanta talk is real or not. I doubt any team will waste their first round pick on Bronny. He did show a bit of his athletic ability with the fourth highest vertical jump. So he isn’t a scrub or anything. I also
Saw he got a few buckets today in a scrimmage. If he goes to the NBA though, I think he’ll be a late pick for the Lakers, otherwise he’d probably go undrafted.

He showed not that good at the first scrimmage of the NBA combine. But he has shown that he's not that type of guy who likes all the ball shooting. He's a passer and that's still a good attitude towards the game. The comparison of him and his father is always there. Another team that I have heard is going to be Dallas but we will always hear these rumors while the draft hasn't come yet and this season hasn't ended yet. 4 points for his first scrimmage so, I don't know if that's the exact number but not impressive for the start but still, he's young and a rookie and teams that will see him as a prospect can develop him.

Brunson doing everything right now with 28 points already in the first half. I wonder if he could keep that intensity up in the second but it looks like he's saving up in the third and he'll do it all over again in the fourth. Pacers are not that far behind and they may outlast the knicks in the final five minutes.

And they did, Brunson carry the team again, but there are some unsung heroes in the Knicks uniform. Donte only had 8 points, Mcbride and then Burks did contribute in this game. But for me the biggest unheralded star is Isaiah Hartenstein, grabbing a big 17 rebounds and some few blocks. And for those who didn't know, Hartenstein is black as his father Florian is black,

Denver though is leading the over the Wolves and there is good chance that they might take a 3-2 lead in this series.

First off yeah jalen brunson had himself a game, nobody could stop him they were throwing constant doubles on him and he still was shredding the team.

And yeah Hartenstein was a beast on the boards.  12 offensive rebounds by himself.  Just not sure why you had to add in that his dad is black amd send a link lol I don't know how that's even relevent here

Do any of you think the Cavs will have their last hurrah in game 5? Injury reports says that Mitchell is likely to miss this game again but I doubt he will pass the chance to play even if he is 80% fit. I think the Celtics will still wrap up the series later. Those extra days for rest and preparation in the conference Finals are important.

The majority is thinking that's going to be their last game. It's gonna be Celtics which will get in first than the others.

And with the other match, Nuggets and Timberwolves. Many were counting on the Timberwolves to win against the Nuggets and thought that they're the team that's going to stop them.

But being 3-2 and having 3 straight wins against them, okay, we move back to our boi Denver Nuggets.

The bookies clearly agree to this with Celtics winning @1.05.
Cavs did enough for me to lose my -10.5 bet on Celtics last time so I'm going to pick Cavs +15.5 @1.96 this time hehe.

It's looking like a reverse sweep. Jokic already figured out how to deal with the soft and slow Gobert.

Boston Celtics - Cleveland Cavaliers game will start soon, Boston Celtics is the favorite.
Currently the situation is 3-1 in the series and the Boston Celtics are ahead, they will finish this series tonight and wait for the next series.

Not just Michell, but also LeVert and Allen are out for tonight's game. It's the end of the Cleveland Cavaliers' run for this season. If it weren't for the injuries, they might have had a chance against the Celtics. It could have been like the Magic that reached game 7, but of course the Celtics would still win. The Cavaliers ran out of energy because of their 7 games against the Magic.

Looks like Knicks vs Celtics in East Conference Finals - Celtics in 4. What do you think?

Good luck, the ball is definitely balanced and round and no one will know until the game ends.

Defensive man of the years versus the MVP, Jokic is really a genius on this one.

We all thought that they'd be the rival that can easily take the Nuggets down but no.

All I really care is winning the bet to be honest hehe. The first half is over and the Cavs are still holding on despite the absence of several key players. Garland is expected to carry this team again but Marcus Morris is playing surprisingly well. I'll be happy if they can keep the score close to the Celtics in the second half too.

Looks like Knicks vs Celtics in East Conference Finals - Celtics in 4. What do you think?

In 4? No.

I’m with you on only caring about the bet. The Cavs aren’t going to win and everyone knows it. So far it’s looking good. They’re losing but pacing to beat the spread so I’m a happy guy.

I also don’t know if Boston is going to sweep the Knicks or not, but I feel pretty good about their chances to win that series as well.

[boyptc]

The game is still close on this 3rd quarter. Cavs might make it but I am for the Celtics on this game and they'd go home happy while the Cavs will have to take the rest and wait this season ends.

Let's see what's about to happen for this last quarter.

Although I really doubt that Cavs will prolong this series and will able to survive.

[STINKYBEE]

Cleveland was trash, the Celtics should've swept this team but glad Celtics now get time to rest and now it's on to the next road.

Luka Doncic did it again. Triple-double against the rough defense of Dort. That's tough. 31/10/11

3-2 Dallas Mavericks now have the advantage and they are going back home to Dallas to possibly end this series against the OKC Thunder.
The key players today are Derrick Jones Jr. and PJ Washington, still no show on the offensive end for Kyrie Irving. I hope he is preserving all that power in Game 6 because they will need him to show up. It's like his confidence is shattered or he is just too focused on passing the ball. Twice, he had the opportunity to shoot the ball near the rim and yet he still passed it to the big man which led to a turnover and one got lucky that Gafford was fouled.
Still, Luka was so unstoppable in the offensive end shooting threes way outside and distributing the ball so accurately to give his team an open shot.

Mavs is still doing good even if Kyrie is not putting the points that we expect him to do in this playoff. But with Luka's triple double and then the Lively, Jones and Washington giving enough support for Luka to steal one at OKC homecourt. I don't know though the crowd there, they are not that loud as compare to other fans to let's say Madison Square Garden.

Anyhow, it's the inexperience of the Thunder are in full display here, it's only SGA that putting points. There was one instance that Chet was block for a great dunk by Jones Jr and it stop their run as they were able to cut the lead into single digit. So finals in the West could be Nuggets vs Mavs.

I wouldn't say trash but it's just unfortunate that their best player good injured and so when Mitchell went down, it's obvious that they will not go and win the series and as you have said, the Celtics should have swept them. And as expected, the Boston Celtics is already in the Eastern conference finals again, and waiting for their opponents, either the Knicks or Pacers.

On the West side, Mavs looking good and as we have seen Jokic and Doncic elevated their games in game 5 to push their team to a commanding 3-2 lead.

I guess even if Mitchell played the result is still the same, but who knows the series will be extended. Cavaliers playing undermanned or missing their best player knows already that the end is near for them, and just what most of us predicted, it ended in the home court of the Celtics.

As to their opponent, it's not certain yet because if the Pacers will take this to game 7, I'd say it's 50-50 even if the pacers are playing on the road.

On the West side, Mavs looking good and as we have seen Jokic and Doncic elevated their games in game 5 to push their team to a commanding 3-2 lead.

Mavs steal another win on the road, it's time to close the game in 6. Actually, Mavs could have ended the series already if they were more careful in game 4.
