Lakers finally getting things rolling but they barely just beat Kings but they did it without the king, lebron is once again out but this time it wasn't injury, just covid related reasons to make sure he doesn't have it, he will be back as soon as he has a negative test I suppose. In any case they played very well in a team way and if they keep this up then they could actually be good in the long run.

Westbrook-Lebron-AD trio without a center is +16 together, so they just need to play without a center and these trio, then keep avery bradley out because he sucks this season, put in Carmelo and tht if you ask me and you got yourself a great team. Also Suns made it 17 wins in a row now by beating Warriors who are the only team around Suns with same winning rate, those two are playing like they could be the ring contenders this year, going to be fun to watch them all year.

And as for the other big game, Suns managed to defeat GSW and increased their winning streak to 17 games. This is really huge for Suns and they have a chance to break the biggest streak in NBA history but there is still a long way to go for that. The biggest reason why GSW lost this game was S. Curry's inadequate performance I think.
Yeah, likely the reason why GSW lost is because of that. Suns is very underrated, there were only a few fans talking about their winning streak.
Even for the media, they're not putting that much attention to it. But now that it's been noticed by a lot of fans, there's already a coverage for their winning streak, good luck further to them and hopefully they make another record breaking winning streak.
It's good for them to be underrated though, just look at what they did to the GSW, tough defense, shut down Curry and then continue with their winning streak. Too bad that Booker went down with an injury and hopefully he can return back soon so continue their streak because he is a big part of this team. But for sure, GSW and Curry will be back, specially when Thompson shows up, they will be more dangerous team but not tonight against the Suns.

Every great player can have a bad performance sometimes, and I think it's ok. By the way, these teams will meet again on December 3, as Distinctin mentioned earlier. So I guess the Warriors will have a good opportunity to win given that Booker was injured, and the Suns will probably play without him for the next few games.
I hope Booker will play so that cannot be used as an excuse that the Warriors only had their revenge because Booker is out. This game is very important for the Warriors to redeem their power ranking status which currently at the number 1, and to prove to the fans that they are still the best team this season.

There were two big and awesome games last night:

Brooklyn Nets 112 - 110 New York Knicks
Phoenix Suns 104 - 96 Golden State Warriors

Nets - Knicks was a very close game and Nets got another win by a close gap. Harden and KD were the most performing players for Nets. They had a big role on the win. And as for the other big game, Suns managed to defeat GSW and increased their winning streak to 17 games. This is really huge for Suns and they have a chance to break the biggest streak in NBA history but there is still a long way to go for that. The biggest reason why GSW lost this game was S.

Stephen Curry's performance was very bad, he did not play as expected. Deandre Ayton found baskets at the most important times and became the Suns' top scorer. Although we don't see Devin Booker on the field much, I think it's very nice that the Suns won the game.
The club's record has been broken and they are doing really well. We can say that it is the best playing team in the league at the moment. I hope these performances continue until the end of the season Smiley

Suns are the number one team now because they beat the Warriors. However, their record is tied at 18-3 so we can't say that the Suns are the best team now, and the Warriors will have a rematch on their home, so that's another game to watch for, let's see if the Suns could still win even on the road.

Steph Curry really deserve to be this years season MVP, let him have the title. Recently, he overtakes Ray Allen on All Time 3-Points List and became the title holder of the Most 3-Points Shot in History, just like that! A 33 years old talented man from the GSW brokes many record consecutively.
Hopefully, we can see Steph to play more this season with no injuries at all.
Yeah, Curry definitely deserves to be called the best 3-point shooter in NBA history. By the way, it's worth noting that Curry will have the opportunity to make at least 4,5-5k three-pointers until the end of his career if he continues to score at the same pace. If it happens, I guess his record will be out of reach for many, many seasons.
As of November 13 this year, Stephen Curry made 3,366 3-pointers and still counting today in the game GSW vs. PHX. Yes, it's highly possible that he's going to reach 4,000+ 3-pointers milestone in his whole career because he still have many seasons before he will decide to retire. For sure, he'll be holding that record for years and years until someone is going to break it again.

I wish I was able to watch the Brooklyn Nets vs New York Knicks game last night.  Cheesy  It seems to be a hell of a game. I was supporting Nets for this game and they made it by 112-110. Especially Harden had good stats like 34 points, 10 rebounds and 8 assists. Durant followed him by 27 points, 5 rebounds and 9 assists. They nearly missed making a triple-double and double-double.

It was a close game, I watched it before the SUNS vs GSW game on free online streaming. it was so intense but in the end, the last foul by the Knicks causes them the loss last night. It was a lost calculation on their side and they didn't anticipate it until they see that they are out of time about 2.0 left and they didn't manage to get a closer look at the basket since they are out of timeout as well and the result was the Brooklyn Nets won by 2 points because of the free throw causes by that unnecessary foul.

Knicks are more competitive now, they probably have learned a lot during the last playoffs where they made an early exit. They are playing against the best team in the East and they gave them a tough time to beat them. By the way, what betting site you are watching for free live streaming, would you share?
Looks like the decision of Coach Thib to remove Kemba with the rotation actually works in their favor.
Well, numbers don't lie like I said and base on statistics Kemba is a burden on the team both offensively and defensively.

They played well against the top seeded team Brooklyn Nets and I think if they will continue to play like this, they might enter the playoffs with almost the same spot as they are last season which is 4th. The problem right now is what they will do to Kemba. Will they just let him stay in the bench and for sure if that is the case then his career will greatly affected. Take note that he is an all-star when he is in Charlotte but his career got affected because of injuries. Do you think it is better to just trade him or just stay with the Knicks where he isn't contributing to the team at all?

The Knicks are a very solid team, but seem to be playing a little less well of late compared to the super hot start they got off to. They are certainly one of my favorite teams, I guess in large part due to being a Bulls fan and therefore being a big fan of Tom T, Rose, and Gibson. I think they’ll finish around 5-6th in the East personally.
Yes, they are still solid on both ends but they will need someone to get hot before they are able to win. Randle for example, he ain't really that consistent type of guy. He always plays long minutes but he needs to put everything into it. Last game he went nuts on scoring against the Nets and they were able to end it with a close game although they lose it.
Before that, they battle against the Hawks and he was on the floor for 32 minutes producing only 8 points but they still won it. As I said, someone needs to get hot and step up and at that point, Alec Burks is the one who contributed well.
We've seen how he struggle during the last playoffs and he was really inconsistent, he needs to improve his game especially his IQ in the court. We all know that he is the best player or the star in the team, but he has to trust his teammates more, if he ain't making, he should let the others do so they'll win as a team.

his PPG stats now has declined from 24. 1 to 19.4.

They are on fire! But even though they beat Detroit Pistons too, I think that Warriors will avenge that loss right after the Pistons game.

Hmmm... Thanks for this info mate, I have no idea that they will face against after a day off, and that time, it will be on the home court of the Warriors.  That's going to be an interesting game as I'm pretty sure Curry would not struggle twice in a row against the Suns.

That was an amazing game by the SUns... Still on a winning streak now, since even the Warriors cannot beat them, I don't know anymore when their winning streak will be stopped, it seems like they are unstoppable now. Their next game will be against the Pistons, I think we can easily consider that still a win for them.

I have a question, fellas here, do you think that they'll break the longest winning streak in the NBA?

Here's the top 3.

1. Los Angeles Lakers, 1971-72: 33

2. Miami Heat, 2012-13: 27

3. Golden State Warriors, 2015-16: 24

I have just checked the statistics about this for Phoenix Suns. And I have seen that they have a 17-win streak now which is just incredible. They are just like unstoppable for now and they even defeated Golden State Warriors the last time. They are on fire! But even though they beat Detroit Pistons too, I think that Warriors will avenge that loss right after the Pistons game.

34 wins in a row? With the quality of teams from both the Eastern and Western conferences today, I doubt. The coach can try to rotate players and give rest to CP3 (who is their main man) to lessen the risk of injury in the next 10+ games but they just do not have enough depth to keep to the winning streak going. I would like to be proven wrong though.

I as well doubt they can break the longest winning streak. CP3 is indeed the most vital piece in this Phoenix Suns roster. Before he  went into this team, they are struggling and didn't even get the chance to get pass the round 1 in the playoffs. Now, even when they don't want CP3 to rest to keep the momentum going, I still doubt them breaking the longest winning streak. Maybe around 20 would be their longest, or not gonna make it to 20 because they have a back to back game and one of those opponents is GSW again.

Dwight Howard went off today for the Lakers. Finally they give him some minutes with LeBron out due to covid (he was vaccinated).  I’ve been saying he’s playing at a hall of fame level this year and it’s like nobody noticed. Glad to see him trending on twitter tonight and getting some respect now that he got the minutes to show up in the box scores.
He is, Lakers are getting that help from him especially on the rim and I think he deserves that respect. I wonder if LeBron really tested positive and I guess that really makes some concerns not only for Lakers but to the whole, well, I hope not now that there's a new variant been discovered.
