The last moments of the Trail Blazers - Clippers game was really exciting. When the score was 112-111, Powell missed a very valuable 3-pointer. If he scored that one, maybe his team were going to win this game. After Clippers got ahead 113-112, McCollum got a crucial opportunity to help his team get ahead and even win the game but he missed the medium-range shot and Clippers managed to be the winner.
That was without Leonard, and Blazers are playing at home, this team has still not improve yet, they will not be in the WCF this season. However, it was really a nice game to watch, it's just that, Blazers are now in a long losing streak, hopefully they'll not dig a hole on that.

I think it was Curry's decision to really play and not do load management this year as compare to other teams or players who wishes to sit down and not play. Medical science has advance throughout the years, so I think he can still play 2-3 years down the line because they are going to protect him with sports science. So it's not careless though, they know the risk involved here and Steph and his family know this as well.
He can still do it for the next years to come and his game these past days is improving there's no doubt if Thompson is on the court this season this team is still a major threat to the western conference. they are currently top 9 in the western conference and they are doing well as of now. the remaining games will much likely answer the questions of whether he still got it or he won't be the same as when he was in his prime. But if you ask me, the man can still shoot the ball well and manage to won some games and that is enough to think that he can be still like that after some years from now.
Curry is still on his prime, probably when Thompson will be back next year it will be a different GSW. Not the same as when they have a run at the NBA, but we might see them chasing another ring when him, Klay and Green back very healthy and with the young set of guys that they have right now.
No question about it, Curry has lead his team this season with his historic shooting and scoring. But I'm not sure if that is enough for a ring, probably they will be having a hard time winning on the first round of the playoffs. But what's important is that these young guys get the experience.
Yeah I agree but they need a better rebounder first before they became a totally different team once Thompson is back since if they just rely on their current rooster still they will provably struggle since they don't have legitimate solid defender or other who can do the dirty works aside from green, If they can manage to accumulate a good player well we can definitely say that GSW is a title contender again next season.

I thought Pelicans could find a way to win it against the a short crew Nets but I was wrong.
Lost my bet once again but the game was also intense. What I was scared for did happen. Kyrie wore his hot hands and dominated the game.
Harris also made a large contribution to seal the win.
My last chance is for the Clippers to win it. But, Trail Blazers is also fighting back even without Lillard playing. McCollum leading the team and always better when Lillard is not around. - Won

I have them ML @2.20, I know that Nets is short handed, but I think NOP is very inconsistent that they forget to win a game know. So it's a win for me, although in the beginning I thought it was a trap again and I have to question why the punters are putting Nets as a underdog against the Pels.
Yes, Joe Harris, I also bet on him whether to score "x" points this game. Love this guy and he is a perfect tandem to Kyrie.

Kyrie Irving will always wore that hot whenever he is alone (sans KD and Harden) and it seems that they have good chemistry with Joe Harris.
I usually stay away from Nets game but against the young Pelicans with an attractive odds, it's fortunate that i put a little on the ML.
There a report that Harden will be out indefinitely, this is very bad news for them as KD is also struggling from injury and i doubt Kyrie alone can lift his team against top tier teams.

@wiss19, I think Curry could still get an MVP once their team will quality in the playoffs, they don't need to win a championship or be in the NBA Finals as Giannis had the same scenario in the past but he still won the regular season MVP.
Curry is on an improve level now, he can score 30 points easily, I guess that's his average now (Correct me if I'm wrong), and the way I see it, he is so happy playing and basketball seems easy for him.

As I have said before, Curry is on a personal mission to win the scoring title this year. Bradley Beal is still leading though, but let's see after this week, if Curry's incredible streak continues, he can have overtaken Beal and won the scoring title.
I wouldn't say that he is on an improve level, he is really on his prime right now, 33 years old and carrying his team on his shoulder.
Now regarding Golden State going into the playoffs with how Curry is playing, I don't think that it will happen. I'm a fan of GS since the GS dynasty and until now but the reality is, Steph can't carry his team to the playoffs or at least if the GS will make it into the playoffs they will not advance at least into the second round. He might play like this till the end of the season but playoffs is a complete different scenario already. They need a healthy Klay to at least say that they are a playoff contender but for now, its a no for me.

.. most of the time MVP is given to players who plays in a team that is highly ranked, barely under 5th seed and usually goes to first seed most of the time.
It's not always with the team rankings at the end of the season but mostly it was based on the stats throughout the season. As an example, Russell Westbrook before got his Season MVP award while his team OKC finished the 6th spot on that season.
And also not just by PPG, it should be accompanied by other stats too to make a good stat line. As of the latest MVP ladder, Steph Curry was in the 9th spot. Let's see if he can climb with the rankings although it's just about 15-16 games left before the end of the season if I'm not mistaken.
@wiss19, I think Curry could still get an MVP once their team will quality in the playoffs,
Playoffs have nothing to do with Season MVP selection.

Curry is playing at MVP level once again. Dude missed so many games this year and he still ended up with the highest total games and highest points per game at the same time. You do not do this without being one of the best offensive players eve in the league. I do not remember any player being as great as him on offense, I know Lebron is great, I know Kobe was great, I know MJ was great, all of these players are great but I still say that he is the best scorer we have ever seen.
MJ had other stuff, Kobe had other stuff, Lebron has other stuff, but Curry is a pure scorer that can never be found anywhere ever again, dude is just surreal and he should even get MVP but warriors suck so he will probably not get it, most of the time MVP is given to players who plays in a team that is highly ranked, barely under 5th seed and usually goes to first seed most of the time.

Nuggets vs Grizzlies double overtime. What a game! That was indeed exciting.
They just went back and forth with the lead. Jokic exhausted but still making great shots for the team. 47 points 16 rebounds. 45 minutes of game time.
Facu did pretty well stopping Ja. Barton with big shots and Dozier locking the win with his 2 high pressure free throws.
Great night for the Nuggets fan. That was worth every dollar for the ticket.

That was a thrilling game to watch and with 2 times OT like that, you can say how intense was the game was and at the end of the game Denver Nuggets gets the win which they likely deserved it especially when you see how Jokic handle the last minute of the game.

My heart was pumping like crazy while watching both teams giving their all.
Grizzlies are really trying their best and Ja Morant proved why he was named Rookie of the Year.
What if Jonas played?
Campazzo should be named 3rd player of the game after Jokic and Morant. He did a good job out there with a clean defensive aggressiveness.
He was already at his 5th foul and yet he could stick to Morant like that. If he was fouled out (overturned as an offensive foul for Ja) the Nuggets could've lost that game.
If that follow-up dunk from Ja Morant went in or ref made a call.
That's really a good leadership can't say nothing but he really deserve that ROY award last year, he's athleticism was so cool Nuggets
just made a good adjustment and give them a pain in the ass in the last 3 mins of the regular pushing this game to double overtime,
Great job for both teams.

Just imagine how capable the Jazz of beating the Lakers today.
Last outing, Jazz almost had a win against the Lakers, they only gas out in the OT, but this time, they can use the service of Gobert and Conley being a good point guard, so it's an automatic win by the Jazz. Don't overthink on this game, bet on the Jazz while you can.

I think Jazz really missed the services of Rudy Gobert in their first game that's why Drummond went on tearing the middle and scoring like 20 points if I'm not mistaken. But since Rudy will play today, it will be a different story and I agree that I don't think that Lakers can make it 2-0 against a full roster.
The betting odds shows that, even if Lakers get 1-0, still they are a huge underdog with 3.x odds. Punters knows that with Gobert and Conley, it will be a different out come.
Lakers already won by a large margin was even cover the handicap of (-6.5) because Gobert is back a it was a very different ball game when the Jazz team is almost healthy. And in the third quarter alone, Jazz shot an incredible 60% from the field, that's why they really took a huge lead and never look bad as if to show that the first lost was a fluke because they missing the services of the big man.
Credit to Gobert beacuse of his inside presence, without him, Jazz would struggle as most of them are outside shooters. Jazz will remain as the number 1 team in the West, and though they don't have a lot of all star, they are still a very efficient team. Even without Mitchell, I believe they will continue winning because they really have build that great chemistry already.
