2026 NBA Season

[arwin100]

While it's true that Lakers did manage to get the win, while nobody expected them to, Lebron was not really that unbelievable. He played good don't get me wrong, 26 points 11 assists and 8 rebounds at age 42? Are you crazy? Nobody in the history could do that.

But at the same time, let's not act like he is that old "let me score 40 points and get the win" Lebron anymore, dude is aging. It was others having not a bad shooting night that made this possible, if teammates did not play well, then he would not be enough by himself.

He is the king for a reason!    It's hard not to admire the work he is doing even at the age of 41. I just have a tiny request from him. Just please don't let us watch the miserable Bronny part...

He never deserves to play for a team like Lakers for a single second. He doesn't even deserve NBA in the first place! When LeBron leaves by the end of the season Bronny would also say goodbye to NBA permanently - probably.

He's performance for many years and his contribution on NBA is amazing, for sure people will not forget his overall performance once he leave.

Although on part of Bronny they really made a mistake from drafting him early, since looks like he's career will end up soon if Lebron will decide to retire. If they just wait and try to develop his skill for awhile maybe we can see a different Bronny.

Lakers would provably find good replacement, since what they are looking is helpful on their rotation.

It wasn’t a mistake, it was part of the package to keep LeBron with the Lakers. We’ve already seen that Bronny is not really worthy, even now in his second season. But no need to worry about that, because he came in as part of the package with LeBron. So once LeBron retires, I think his son goes with him too.

I think the problem is that everyone wants this young kid to perform like his dad, but the problem also is that there is so much expectations from because of what his dad is all about, I don’t really consider him to be as perfect as his dad, because they’re both two different people, there is so much pressure on him to perform as his father, but that isn’t how things work, I feel things would be different for him, and less pressure if he leaves Lakers and move to a different franchise where he can be himself, and try to play his own game and also develop, right from on set I think it was totally a mistake for him to choose to move to Lakers, he could’ve gone somewhere else to develop, he is still young and his career is way far ahead of him, I believe there is still so much more to come from him right now.

His performance is way below average even without any expectation from him since real pro will not gonna be affected to pressure instead focus on his game to make an improvement.

He always given a playing time to show off his skills but he always fail to deliver especially a wide open layup or point blank shot.

What he needed is play to different team away from his father because he might can’t carry the pressure of being compared to his father.

81 games have been completed! The regular season is officially coming to its end by tonight's games. There isn't much of a competition left except one thing...

Raptors and Magic are still fighting each other for finishing in top 6. They've the same number of wins. Raptors have a superiority to them thanks to beating them in 2 out of 3 H2Hs.  

The games for them:

- Celtics v Magic
- Raptors v Nets

It looks like Raptors will finish as 6th...

I have not gotten this level of dopamine for a play-offs like this one in a long time, particularly because I am a hornets fan I will be so satisfied if they can at least advance from the play-ins, next year we are coming for the eastern conference title

They’re already in the play-in, and with the way they’re playing now, it’s not impossible that they can reach the playoffs.

This team is still young. They started the season looking bad, but somewhere in the middle they began winning and even managed to beat the Celtics. So I trust this team a bit now. It feels like they already have better chemistry, and there’s not too much pressure on their shoulders yet, so they could be a fun team to watch.

Bronny has a guaranteed contract through the end of next season, with a team option for 2027-28. So even if LeBron decides to retire after this season, that doesn’t mean Bronny will go with him. However, we can’t rule out the possibility that the Lakers might actually either buy out his contract or trade him at any time after LeBron retires.

[SquallLeonhart]

The way Lebron is pulling them to first round is great, it's like the old days and he is still doing a great job. It's not normal for a guy his age to carry a team and he is still somehow managing to do that, it's shocking to see really, I did not expected him to play like a star anymore, he was looking like a third player on that Lakers team behind Doncic and even Reaves, and he has shown once more that he only allowed that but also had the power to be first whenever he wanted to.

Great to see them doing this much , because one thing is for sure, if Doncic comes back before they lose out, they are going to have a great chance to do very good damage at playoffs, they looked much better than most teams, and if Lebron can hang until Doncic comes back, many things could happen.

We knew it right from the start that Bronny just got drafted because of his daddy. Imagine a player that's scoring only single digit in his college years, and hasn't been contributing that much as well is being drafted in the NBA? I mean a player with equal stats as him will not even get in the draft combine - let alone get drafted. That's how awful to see Bronny getting drafted. Sorry for the word but for me, he doesn't deserve to be in the NBA... at least for now.

Many are already saying that when Lebron retires, Bronny will be out as well. Looking at his contract, there's a "Club" Option meaning the management decides whether the player will be extended for one more year or not, and in this case, it's pretty obvious that he will not be extended just by looking at his performance all-year long. I wonder though if there will be a team that will try to get him especially when Lebron retires... or he might be playing overseas after that. Hmmm.

I agree, the team is composed of your stars who can improve better in the next following seasons, if they can't advance to the conference semi-finals or unable to move forward to the second round, as long as they will keep the same squad and work with system that will blend them together more deeper, with the way they are playing, there's a good chance that they may a good contender from the east side.

I don't agree with you on Lakers to do well in playoffs when Doncic recovers. Even with him it wouldn't be enough to eliminate Rockets in the first round in my opinion.

They will lack another important member like Reaves firstly. And I don't think they are playing better as a team compared to Rockets. I'm saying this despite not loving the coach Udoka at all...

[Stavri]

tanking situation has seriously gotten out of hand this year. i mean, we get it when one or two teams are bad every season but Washington, Sacramento, Utah, New Orleans, Indiana, Brooklyn, Milwaukee, Memphis they’re all tanking...
Especially in the Washington and Utah games, we saw absurd records like Bam Adebayo scoring 83 points. moreover so many elite players have been ruled out for the rest of the season. Haliburton, Morant, Edey, Jaren Jackson Jr., Sabonis, Doncic, Reaves, Giannis ... The playoffs are probably going to suck too.

[danherbias07]

The last games of the regular season will be today, and I bet everyone is excited for the playoffs. The fun part is that there could be changes to the seed positions, so we need to watch the games today or see the results first before they can announce the full matchups, especially the play-in tournament, which is up next after the season.
There's no assurance yet for many teams, so some of them will probably play at full energy later.

Lots of games will start in 2 hours or more. (as of time of writing) Place your bets! Good luck!

Last day of NBA season today. I think I made around 100-200 combo bets, but only about 10 of them won. lol
For single bets, I think I just broke even. So overall this NBA season betting was not for me. Most of my bets lost.

How about you guys, how were your NBA parlay/ single bets this season?

I think I need to avoid those lotto odds. Maybe I’ll just build bets around 2-10 odds instead. It’s really hard to win with very high odds, it all feels like pure luck.

The house prevails and I think I didn't make it to break even. Yeah time for some reflections but I think I'll go on especially for the play-in and playoffs games as they'll be far more competitive and teams and players will go all out now in their defense and offense. It's always those lotto odds lol.

I think 2-10 is still huge considering bet builders are meant to be hit and just one simple mess will ruin it all.

10%, that is still good, what about the result is it profit or not?

For single bets, I think I just broke even. So overall this NBA season betting was not for me. Most of my bets lost.

I don’t really count my parlay bets or even my single bets that much, but honestly I feel like I was never really in profit at all, lol.

Still, we still have time to recover some of those losses, man. The playoffs are about to start, play-in first, and that’s way more interesting than the regular season, so maybe we’ll be able to predict things better there.

Hope you can get back more than just break even, bro.

If no one picks up Bronny after Lebron retires, it won’t be surprising anymore. Based on his skills, there are a lot of better players than him who never got a chance or are already out of the NBA. At this point, you can really say he got in because he’s Lebron’s son, because of connections, not skill. He might even struggle in overseas leagues if that’s all he can offer. Unfortunately, he didn’t even inherit half of LeBron’s skills. I’m not hating, just stating facts/opinion.

There's Knicks vs. Hornets game on TV but Knicks rest their stars so it should be an easy Hornets win. The Knicks will finish in 3rd seed whether they win or lose today. I think the Hornets can't move up to 8th seed even if the Sixers lose to the Bucks, but they need to win to hold onto 9th seed. The Heat will finish in 10th seed in that case. These are just small play-in adjustments. I'd rather watch play-in games at this point.

[mirakal]

If no one picks up Bronny after Lebron retires, it won’t be surprising anymore.

Just take out that "if" because no one would really pick him anyway. In fact, he probably would not have been drafted at all if not for his father’s influence.

So once his father retires, there’s really no point in him staying. Even on the current team with his father, he’s barely being used. Unless some miracle happens and he improves, that’s the only way he stays, and honestly I’m 99% sure that won’t happen.

There's Knicks vs. Hornets game on TV but Knicks rest their stars so it should be an easy Hornets win.

No wonder the line is -14.5
