2026 NBA Season

[OgNasty]

There are 2 nice games tonight like Nuggets-Cavaliers and Lakers-Thunder.

Nuggets are still facing injury problems. Peyton Watson and Aaron Gordon are out. Jokic and Murray are both said to be questionable but I think at least Jokic is more likely to play. If he does then I think they will beat Cavaliers.

For the other game it isn't that easy to predict unlike what bookies think. Doncic is out in this game due to hamstring but SGA is also out on Thunder side. Lakers have been given 3.00 for the win. It might be worth a try while SGA is out despite Doncic's absence.

Yes those are some nice games indeed, and yeah Jokic is indeed probably while Murray is questionable that game can go either way. And as far as the Thunder go, man these guys have major depth that is why that line is like that, they've been down a lot of players several times this season and they still grit out the wins but as well know in sports anything can happen, good luck on whichever way you proceed bro.

Los Angeles Lakers and Oklahoma City Thunder are going to play on Peacock tonight. That’s nice. I like when I get to stream Lakers games. This will be my first chance to get to see their new sharpshooter Luke Kennard. I think SGA is still out too so the Lakers should be able to bring home a W.

When they are good, even without Jokic, the Nuggets can win. But there are games that Jokic since he return was not able to do his usual games with double double that's why they've lost. Yes, the Thunder has depth and even their second unit is very hard to beat specially those who really play hard defense and they work like a unit. So this is going to be very hard to predict. I thought that in their last game, they are going to lose against the Rockets as Houston is leading thru the first half. But then again, they flipped the switch and play hard defense to be able to squeak a win even without SGA.

There’s always an adjustment period, especially when you’re coming back from injury, so that’s normal. But if you look at their last game, they were down first, then came back and beat the home team, which tells Jokic is still the same best player of the team.

And it’s not just a double-double for Nikola Jokić, triple-double in that game:

17 assists
14 rebounds
22 points

That’s why, even with some rust, he’s still on another level.

This one feels different, because SGA is out, and he’s their best player. They can survive if one or two role players are missing, that’s fine, but once the main guy is down, it’s a different story. Of course, we’ll still see how it plays out, but I honestly don’t understand why OKC are still heavy favorites against the Los Angeles Lakers, especially when they’re not even playing at home.

Makes me wonder if they’re a bit overvalued right now.

Yeah SGA is out, but they just got back Jalen Williams don't really know what his minutes will look like yet but that's another weapon on deck. And in SGA's absence Cason Wallace and Chet Holmgren been balling out and recently just picked up Jared McCain again more depth. So yeah even though SGA out OKC will always be a favourite big or small not saying the lakers can't win never that anything is possible.

Alperen being selected to the world team is great, he really deserves it but KD being one star for Rockets made it difficult for a second one to be picked and Alperen is not "surely All-star" level player, he is "barely all-star" level player but it's always good to get those type of people selected when someone is injured.

The injured players knows he would be all-star if he could have, but he was injured, and he can always still say "selected" when talking about his selections, whereas Alperen could get this as motivation to keep trying to be better as well. I know there were some controversies about the player because of what happened with the female ref, but he has said he made it clear and apologized so I do not know what else can be done about it.

Alperen is an all-star caliber, a near superstar and he can play well with or w/o KD in Houston.
It is the voting from the people and I think Sengun dont have much fans yet. While KD has its Fan base + a new fan from Houston.
All-star is a matter if voting from the people.

In the Detroit-Charlotte game, players got into a brawl. Four players were ejected from the game as a result of the fistfight.

Isaiah Stewart is going to be in serious trouble. He jumped off the bench and tried to hit Miles Bridges.

Detroit won the game 104-110 on the road. Charlotte suffered their first loss in nine games. Now I wonder how many games these players will be suspended for.

[Jinetics1111]

The Lakers fought till the end but ultimately couldn't put the Thunder away, and with the return of Jalen Williams he drops 23 points in 24 mins not bad and just looking at the bench as well they had 54 points combined to the Lakers 38 so imagine if SGA was playing now score would've been higher for sure. Deandre Ayton is a curious case this guys numbers are just not consistent I knew when they signed him what they were in for just a weird player.

[yenerbatmaz]

I admit Cleveland is in great form, but I still expected Denver to win, and Cleveland won.
The game was close except for the last quarter, but Cleveland scored more points in the final quarter and won the game 117-119.
Jokic, as usual, had a triple-double, but his scoring was a bit lacking. Donovam Mitchell was the top scorer of the game with 32 points and 10 assists, and played a significant role in the victory.

There is a interesting game tomorrow, Pistons vs Hornets. We all know that Hornets is the hottest team right now and they are going to face the number 1 seed in the East. That is going to be a very good game to watch.

I told you guys this is going to be a great game to watch  , drama as there was a scuffle and I thought that it will end up like the Malice in the Palace. Punches are thrown, 4 players are ejected, Charlotte’s Moussa Diabate and Miles Bridges from Hornets, along with Detroit’s Jalen Duren and Isaiah Stewart.

We all know that Stewart have a history in the past. So let's see what kind of suspensions that NBA is going to give to this player. Obviously, it will hurt the team specially the Hornets who are doing good as they have the winning streak ended here.

Its the hornets players fault at this why would you stick your head on the guy all the way? that is why Duren push him away, then he will retaliate, like he did not step in when no hornets are there he waited for teammates to step in first.
If i were the hornets I'll waive the guy, your team is in a 9 losing streak and then you want to show some swag, to the top team on the east, he may need show skills not making issues inside the court.
Let go of things like that and prove them wrong in scoring.

Hornets - Pistons was really an interesting one with a huge fight broke out... 4 ejections in total! Isaiah Stewart might be in a big trouble. He had a problem with Sengun as well earlier. 

I admit Cleveland is in great form, but I still expected Denver to win, and Cleveland won.
The game was close except for the last quarter, but Cleveland scored more points in the final quarter and won the game 117-119.

I was expecting only Jokic to play for Nuggets but Murray was also available. Still they couldn't manage to get the win... They were 3 points ahead while 30 seconds left. But Cavaliers got a 5-0 series in this time period to come back and win.

I thought Lakers would win despite Luka's not being able to play. But Thunder won anyway without SGA.

I was just watching video of that fight. A couple of those guys seemed really mad and were throwing punches harder than you normally see in these pro athlete fights. I’m glad it seemed like nobody really got hurt. A lot of money will be lost as a result of this…

Right, usually when players throws punches, then they will be fine huge money together with suspension with no pay, and it depends on how many games they are going to be suspended. Maybe those who are at fault will be handed with big fines and suspension. Probably there are a lot at stakes in the line here that's why the tension is high. Plus players are so physical that they don't want to give anyone a advantage. Don't get me wrong, but maybe we need this kind of physically as we have been criticizing that the league has been soft. Another feel good them is the Warriors vs Grizzlies, wherein the Warriors came back from a 10 point deficit in the last couple of minutes and simply won't go away. So they play good defense and translate it to score. Gui Santos mindset is really different and probably that's why Steve Kerr didn't trade him.

Thunder without SGA are still a championship contender team, because they have a very good bench support, and they're very efficient.
The Lakers on the other end can't even make a wide open shots. Vando and Laravia had a rough one behind the arc tonight, and that cost them the game.
I really start to think they need to draw some plays for Kennard, otherwise they'll keep shooting like that for the rest of the season. Well, it's only his 2nd game as a Laker but he already made quite a good play, and he's a good passer too, they really need to execute some plays that involve Kennard more.

every morning when i wake up, my YouTube feed is full of NBA highlights. every three days, it's the same guys Stewart, Green, Brooks, Dort fighting or making dirty fouls. and nothing ever changes. It’s always the same story...

Ayton is painful to watch, he needs to go the management should make a move, this will be a disaster for the lakers, he looks like carrying a still balls chasing SG, making screen half baked then stays in his position like he can't carry the balls, what happen to him, he looks scary in suns, maybe the attitude he made in the suns is still there, i hate to say this but his career is over when the lakers trade him for sure he will be waive, no energy or what so ever, looks like a child in the court he's lost in the wilderness.

Problem with him is his inconsistency, one game he plays great and puts up good numbers, then next game he’s just lost.

It was actually close too, Lakers had a strong 3rd quarter, but the 4th was bad, no energy anymore. And they also got out-rebounded by OKC, which shouldn’t happen, that’s supposed to be Ayton’s job.

[Shinpako09]

The Warriors won over the Grizzlies by 1 point. The last 30 seconds were intense. The Warriors showed great defense on the Grizzlies’ final possession. With 19 seconds left, that was still a lot of time. No player on the Warriors scored 20+, but only three players in their lineup didn’t score in double digits while the rest did, a real team effort. I think they’ve been more productive since Curry got injured. Spencer has scored in double digits for four consecutive games since Curry’s injury. I don’t know if they rely too much on Curry when he’s on the floor or if it’s because he usually takes the shots. But if they stay this productive when Curry comes back, that could help them survive the play-in.
