I was not surprised if the Warriors are going to win, what surprises me is the run they have to do in order to take the lead and increased it in the 4th quarter.

And we have been criticizing Wiggins in his last game, but it seems he get back on track in this games against a tough team with 22 points. Kuminga though played good as well as he is the only one keeping them in the game for the first 2 quarters.

The problem with Wiggins is not that he plays bad or good, dude is an all-star, he could play well we all know that. The problem is that Warriors have a style and they play that way. If he keeps up playing like that for a long time, that's fine because he would fit in the system.

However, if he plays differently from the style and plays the way he used to in Wolves, then it would be a problem even if he has a great game individually. He needs to realize that even Curry is a cog in a machine in this system, whenever he gets worse, someone else takes over. So Wiggins needs to not only play well, but also learn to play well within the system.

NBA games are really unpredictable. There are underdog teams who beat the Favorites unexpectedly. I'm sure lots of bettors lose their bet last night because of the anticipation that Favorites will perform. It's good to see handicapped teams beating a healthy lineup.

Now studying the next set of games and some are worth trying.

Chicago Bulls and Phoenix Suns are considered handicapped next game against their respective opponents. Might put a bet on one of this team.

Or it could be a trap?

Phoenix Suns just won their game, a come from behind victory over the Wolves, it was very physical and intense specially before the end of the 2nd quarter and they mostly trailed in the game. Now, they are the underdogs against the Nuggets in another road game. So yeah, why not? it's better to put on them.

We've seen 4 players scored 20+ or more in the Warriors showing that they can still be a deadly team without their core players.

It's their system that gave them the win, when the star players are not playing, there's no star player in the court and anyone could shoot the ball so the ball movement is very efficient leading to more open shots. Or, my theory is the Heat may not play it seriously as they are too overconfident they could beat the short-handed Warriors.

Yeah maybe the Heat just got too confident that resulted a defeat on their side, later on there was a little confrontation happened on Heat's side. The Warriors closed the game with 14 point lead and I think nobody have saw that coming since the Warriors now are currently undermanned but they proved that they can still handle top heavy teams like the Heat and finish the game in their favor.

I don't think they got too confident against the Warriors, they know that they got their hands full on this game, that's why Butler was very aggressive, even hitting 3's. It's that the Warriors are the one that is very confident in this game.

They know that they can win games even without their top scorer. And they have been in this kind of situation before. Poole becoming the first option together with Wiggins.

Memphis Grizzlies still managed to beat Brooklyn Nets by 132-120 despite not having Ja Morant in this game. Because they had a solid team play which was very helpful for them to make it to the win. I won't be saying for Nets as the individual performances came to the forefront. Irving had a superb performance like 43 points. And Kevin Durant was really close to making a triple-double by a huge effort (35 points, 11 rebounds, 8 assists). Nets need to keep up having a good team play to reach victories easier.

Sources: Brooklyn Nets star Kyrie Irving will be cleared for home games as New York City will on Thursday change private sector vaccine mandate to allow exemption for athletes and entertainers in workplace. Unvaccinated Yankees and Mets players also now eligible for home games.

^ As you can see, we now have a date of when it will possibly happen. More on this here

Kyrie Irving wins the battle. The pride he has shown is worth it lol.

The Nets will surely be happy about that as Kyrie will now be available anytime. Maintaining the playoffs spot is what they did while waiting for the green light from New York City to change restrictions against unvaccinated people playing within their premises.

The disadvantage of the Nets in the playoffs is now slowly fading. ~~But unless it wasn't official, they should not hope for now.~~ It's now official?

Well, so far it shows that Irving have won his battle for this case. Now, the Nets duo Irving-Durant is back to dominate each and every game especially when they are playing home games and their chances to grab the 5th or 6th seed are much higher now. Too bad they lost against the Grizzlies today who's one of their key players are ruled out.

In line with @Bttzed03 quote above, I thinks it's already official that Irving is welcome to play home games starting today.

Ya, his first game at home will be this Sunday. It’s a shame he was held out of any games at all, but you have to respect that he was willing to sacrifice a lot in order to do what he felt was right. As a result, he now has a stronger immune response to covid than the vaccinated players in the league and he didn’t have to compromise his beliefs. Congrats to Kyrie for being able to play home games again and I have a lot or respect for him for not letting anyone force him into something he didn’t want to do. Now the wait for Ben Simmons to join them on the court.

I'll go with your first statement, Warriors rotates the ball so well since there's no known stars to look upon, those who are inside the court

are the one who's in-charge to play the game, they are looking for a high percentage shots and good thing they make things happen during the

game against the Heat. Or, aside from not taking the game seriously, something inside the Heat is not doing well, just like how the video of that argument

between Butler, Haslem and coach Spoelstra is circulating around the web.

Los Angeles Lakers are trying their best to stay in the area to be able to qualify for the playoffs. But they got another disappointing loss last night against Philadelphia 76ers this time. It was a loss by 121-126 home and 76ers' second half effort was really superb that it had a big role in this victory. Lebron James couldn't play due to injury. And I saw D. Howard playing this much good for the first time after a long break. Harden and Embiid had a really good day and made big contributions to 76ers.

Without LeBron and AD, look at the stats of the players they are all sharing the ball.

Very noticeable how most Lakers players are in double digits. They play hard and really try to win this game, but they might get
Exhausted in the last few minutes, while on the other hand, Sixers stars are still very impressive. They all contribute good numbers
and just like how you pointed Embiid, he stood out and dominated the scoring provided for the sixers.

How about that for the Warriors team? It amazed me with how they took over the game even though Klay and Green were sitting on the sidelines.
They played defense and make it to offense at high success rates. Jordan Poole got the hot hands early game while Wiggins made sure it will end with a bang.
Took a peek at the total stats and surprised it was not far of a difference. They just won with rebounds and freethrows. Good game.

They managed to make a big run where they led in the 3rd up to 4th quarter and won the game nicely earlier. The Miami heat was at their worst since they're not following the instruction of their coach especially Jimmy Butler who wanted to make things right by himself but it didn't work last night which result to their loss. They need to get back on track because as they can see when they aren't performing well due to their ego, GSW Curry and Thompson less will easily beat them.

I was not surprised if the Warriors are going to win, what surprises me is the run they have to do in order to take the lead and increased it in the 4th quarter.

And we have been criticizing Wiggins in his last game, but it seems he get back on track in this games against a tough team with 22 points. Kuminga though played good as well as he is the only one keeping them in the game for the first 2 quarters.

Impressive win by the Warriors, the team does not have Thompson and Curry in this game and yet they beat a complete Miami Heat. I can't believe what I saw, it's just like the all star Heat playing the 2nd unit of the Warriors but they could not manage to dominate them.

Jordan Poole was very consistent in this game with 30 points, 7-13 from 3 point line, that as insane.

They have played well today, I didn't expect that they could deliver a victory against the Miami Heat especially when Thompson and Curry are not playing on the Warriors side. Kuminga and of course Jordan Poole have been in their A-game since Curry was injured and they are continuously stepping up everyday.

We are going to have a really competitive game tonight. Grizzlies are hosting Nets and it is going to be a game between two close teams. Nets are favoured by bookmakers to win this game but there is a very small gap. Nets have begun to improve their results a lot recently and this can help them very positively for this game. But Grizzlies are a quite solid team now. Especially Ja Morant has been very impressive so far. In his lead, Grizzlies can make big difficulties for Nets. But at the end, I think that Nets will be winning with the help of KD and Irving especially.

Ja Morant is expected not to play due to injury but the odds didn't move much because Grizzlies is still strong even without Ja Morant. Playing without Morant, Nets will have to take it as an advantage.

They should cover the handicap here or even win a game. Hard to make the game close when a team didn't have their superstar and Memphis are against superstars Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving.

It will be a shame for the Nets if they will lose this game.

Grizzlies have dominated the Nets even though Ja Morant didn't play for the said injury but it's not a problem to them because the ball is shared well unlike the Nets who's play only relied to Irving and Durant and that's what they lack compared to the Grizzlies. Score 132-120 in favor of the Memphis Grizzlies.

This is what's good with this Warriors team. They have no Steph, no Klay and no Green but can still get some wins against a top seeded team like Heat.
This also shows that anybody can step up with the team when their all star players aren't playing for some reasons. We've seen 4 players scored 20+ or more in the Warriors showing that they can still be a deadly team without their core players.

I do agree, it was really impressive that they have jump on the Miami Heat in their home court and beat them. A lot has step up in this game, Poole, Kuminga, Lee and Wiggins. And this time, they did shoot very well in the 3 points and that's what bring this win. Wiggins hit a crucial 3 in the corner and then Poole also made one and that is enough. Hopefully when Curry and Thompson goes back again, they will still be the same deadly team because it seems their chemistry has been interrupted or inconsistent.

No question about how talented these players are. You are right, it could be the chemistry that is the issue and if Thompson, Curry, and Green come back and they will struggle, that would clearly state that it's the legit reason.

When Curry alone leads the team, they seem to be more consistent, but when Thompson came back, that's when they start to struggle, so maybe the coach has to manage Thompson's minutes properly.

I really don't think that chemistry is any issue with this team. I sure as heck don't think Thompsons minutes should be limited unless if he's still not 100% healthy. Thompson is arguably the second greatest shooter of all time outside of Steph Curry, so they need to get him going. Not to mention this is the regular season so they need to iron out any issues and get ready for the playoffs. Losing a game here and there just isn't a very big deal right now still being several games up in 3rd place. Of course it would be nice for them to get that 2 seed, but no the end of the world.

Thankfully, Kyrie Irving is now allowed to play in their home games and that includes New York Knicks game.

WOw! is this for real?

This is so timely, they need Irving to play every game because the Nets are in danger of missing the playoffs.
I guess this news is the biggest for the Nets fans, and it doesn't if they lose last night because I'm sure they'll always bounce back.

The Nets is most likely not gonna miss the playoffs, even If they fall at the 9th spot. They can beat the Raptors, Hornets, or the Hawks in the Play-in tournament.
Fortunately, Kyrie is now available to play both for home and road games. Just a few games before the playoffs starts.
If they remain healthy for the rest of the playoffs, they'll most probably gonna climb the ladder all the way to the finals.

That's why I said it's timely because if they don't have Irving, they have a bigger chance of getting eliminated. Nets would be in the play-in, but I doubt their success is guaranteed if Irving would not be able to play the home games. That's only my personal opinion, so I could be wrong.
