I’m watching the Nets vs Pelicans game and Durant is dressed and ready to play. They’re saying he may get his first minutes since his injury tonight. It’ll be nice to see him back in action. In the meantime Zion is looking to break a record set by Shaquille O’Neal if he can get 20 points on >50% from the field.

Also, Blake Griffin can still dunk and it’s insane people thought he was done...

Brooklyn Nets has dominated the game and it was an easy game for them though Zion Williamson was doing his best tonight, it's not really enough because they don't have enough players to stop the all-star combo by the Brooklyn Nets. Only a few minutes left in the 4th quarter and the lead is already 30+ points. This is just some mismatch games all the time and now that KD is available, I wonder who will gonna stop them.

Golden State is a great team, and they still do have Curry and Klay and Draymond in long term contracts so their future will be good for like at least 5 more years if you ask me, maybe Draymond will become worse but that's about it, curry and klay do not play style of basketball that would get worse. In the end they will be good but there are two players that I am not sure about on that team which I think may need to leave.

A healthy GSW can still compete with the current NBA rosters. Draymond Green's game is just complementary with Curry and Klay. Without them he'd look just like a mediocre player. If the GSW could keep these 3 main guy in the franchise (I know they have like long term contracts, but trades are possible) they could still regain the strength of their team by acquiring more pieces that fits to their style of play.

Remember that in 2015–16, the Golden State Warriors got a 73-9 record with Klay, Curry and Green as their trio.
Now the question is they can be a playoff contender when all of them are healthy? I still believe that Klay still got it and its obvious that Curry can still play and can dominate like what he did last night against the Bucks. We also saw what can happen to the current GSW roster when Curry and Green didn't play against the Raptors Cheesy

. A complete domination by the Raptors against them.

Regarding the trades with these 3, it will depend on when they will be healthy and how their performance will be at that time. Its possible that a trade might happen if they will not play that well. Its just right now, they aren't a playoff contender with their current roster right now but when Klay will be back, it will be a different situation but on the other hand if Klay will not play again next season they "might" trade him. Just my speculation though.

Looks like the Nets are dominating the Pelicans right now as they are leading by 24 101-74 at the time I'm posting this with 4 minutes remaining in the 3rd Quarter. I want to watch the Suns-Jazz matchup. The 2 surprising teams this year for me clashing with each other Cheesy

Yes, Durant suited to play, scored 9 point currently, good to see him back.

As for the records, I read it like days ago that he is on phased to break Shaq's record. And there is also one player, Jokic who broke no less than Wilt's Chamberlain record for most assists by a center.

But it's just unfortunate that one of the big piece is down, Klay is one of the big reason why GSW are succesful and we didn't see him in full one season beacuse he was injured during the practice, that only tells that Klay might be so fragile that anytime he can be injured when he comes back.

If he sees like that on himself then what would be the solution on being fragile? He should make it more stronger because if we do tend to look at on other not so muscle-type physique
but they do able to play up themselves safely even though risk of injury is there but they do able to handle it out.Why cant he?

I agree on what Oasisman said that if GSW would tend to put up those 3 again on the team then they can really give a fight with this current season.

There are players that after they suffered an injury they were never the same again.

Look at Derrick Rose and Cousins, they are not 100% the same when they come back from major injury, and Thompson's injury is considered as major as he is out for a season, so let's hope he will recover soon and be 100% healthy again. Me, I don't want to speculate much but I agree that they are a good team if the big 3 is playing, they have the chemistry, all of them can lead their team to more wins...

Also, we have to understand that they are not getting any younger, next season, another uncertain outcome for them and let's see if there would be no trades going to happen.

Also believed that this isnt actually an issue with their injuries purely but rather this do talk about psychological because once you do experience some major injuries then you would be definitely be scared off to play
once you do get on the court but no matter what the reason is which it is true that performance wont really be in 100% after an injury.GSW wont become famous if Klay wasnt there on previous season or when he's still
playing.

Lets trust the process of recovery since unlike durant before he didn't push his self to go back on the court so provably he's fully recovered when he go back on the court again and maybe he will do certain adjustment regarding on physicalities so for sure he will do more shooting than driving inside the painy when he came back. I don't know if he's still effective player but for seeing his touches didn't fade well thats good sign that he will be a huge threat in rainbow area.

Jazz vs Suns.

The number 1 and 2 teams in the west are playing tonight, it's a great game that everyone should watch. NBA Fans where, what team do you think will win. Me, I favored the Suns here beacuse they are the home team. Grin

One is Kelly oubre, he may look like a decent player at first but he is playing with 311% three points shooting and he still shoots over 5 per game, someone with 13+ field goals should score more than 15 points if you ask me and there was some talks about him not being fine with coming out of bench that created some problems. Second is Wiggins, he is not a bad player I will give you that but he is waaaay overpaid compared to what he should be, I think if they can sign him for 15 million or so that would be great but 27.5 million is waaay too much for him.

If I have to choose who I want to take out of the team between these two, I'd choose Oubre Jr. And I agree he's taking too many shots just to average 15ppg. Wiggins on the other hand might be overpayed because he didn't excell that much like everybody is expected when he was still playing with the Wolves.

What about this answer came from Giannis that says Bitcoin, where someone has asked them what they do for a living.. just a word Bitcoin though, will it matter or not?

It does matter.

Giannis is a very known NBA player and what I see is that he wants to remain lowkey on that guy's content and don't want to say that he's a known NBA player.

And with the popularity of bitcoin, he's in and also can think of a theory that he's just a silent investor.

It is possible that he himself is a silent investor, well blurting out "Bitcoin" in public doesn't make him a lowkey now, everyone now knows that Giannis is into crypto and maybe some other NBA players too.

Maybe the question is how much he has invested already,

Celtics vs 76'ers later, this is going to be a good game to watch this evening.

He just exposed a lot of possibilities that play to the minds of the public and we're sure that he's aware of it or it just come out of nowhere.

Well, the guessing starts but he's really capable of investing since he has a good contract with his team.

A good win by GSW, I thought that they are really out of the game, the lead balloon to 10 points, 5-6 minutes in the game. But then they step it up, Oubre hitting three's and the winning 2 free throws. Then Steph also hitting as well. Just a different GSW when Steph as the leader in playing in the game. He was rested in the first half of the 4th quarter, but the team keep it at a distance and keeps fighting.

It was a quite competitive game and a nice victory for Warriors. They are playing much stronger while having Curry in the game. He had another great game and played a big role on the win (41 PTS, 6 REB, 4 AST). But I really appreciated Bucks' performance in this one even without Giannis.

They are leading Toronto by more than 25 points, so chances are high that they will get a win (unless they collapse).

But the next 2 and the last 5 will be a tough game for them, Miami and Brooklyn and Boston, for sure they will be the underdogs.

And then another top 2 teams in the West to finish, so probably 7th is where they land after this 10 game stretch.

It was unexpected, but the Lakers had a good performance against the Raptors because seven LAL players scored ten or more points. Although, it's worth noting that they made a lot of turnovers during this match. Anyway, I think five wins out of these ten games would be a good enough result for them.

They've got to force this one and win most from those available games that left for them, Lakers just need to stay at the top 8 and the rest will be shouldered by LeBron and AD once they become available and healthy.

Like what most fans believe this team is tough to defeat when everyone is playing without any injuries,
They can beat anyone as the squad still composed by roles players who can help LeBron and AD to continue
the chase for winning back to back titles.

They are just a piece too short though. I dont know if they can claw every game against tough teams like that. In a multiple game series I think they would be exposed. I really thought golden state would have been better this year.

Even knowing that Thompson is not available?

Honestly, I never expect them to be better but I was just hype during the start of the regular season because they seem to have a great start, unfortunately, Curry is not fully healthy this season, he had some injury so he missed some games.

Giannis did not play, so it's a different Bucks they are playing.

And yet Bucks almost got a win without Giannis, missing like 30 points a game, but they were able to hold against Curry and GSW. They almost got a win and was really hoping they will because I got Bucks on ML and live game betting.

And yes, Curry needs to be healthy to keep GSW just above the waters for now and get to the playoffs.

It's really a team effort, definitely, when Curry and Green play, the team is very confident to win the game. I like their young core also doing their job, playing good defense. Bucks is without Giannis though, but Middleton is the one who keep them in the game. It's that Golden State wanted this victory to keep their hopes a live.

For Sixers, Joel just pick where he left off, another MVP performance.

They still got that mentality, being former champ they have the fighting goals.

They've maintain that chemistry as even they are really playing tough the desire to stay in this competion still inside the whole
squad, Steph really step up lifting again his team to snatch this game, Congrats to those who take them for ML and handicap
it's really a good value bet.

Curry really needs to be healthy especially now that his team is struggling, that was a close win but a great win because that's against the Bucks. I like how cluth Curry is in this game, he really is a real superstar as he always deliver right when his team needed him the most.
