Lonzo Ball has been playing like a man possessed since the trade rumors about him started heating up. I think it would be a shame for the Pelicans to let him go. I think him and Zion could do big things, so it’s weird they’re pursuing a future with guys like Ingram and Bledsoe. Almost seems like they’re expecting Zion not to sign an extension from his rookie contract to test free agency, which he should.
Nets have a sloppy start, but slowly they take over in the fourth quarter, there is no way Batum can handle Kevin, I would have put Leonard to Kevin in the fourth quarter, but it's also too much for the clippers Kyrie hits three-pointers in the last four minutes George nowhere to be found on defense, great start for the clippers they just can't seal it in the end.
That's what happened because they rely too much on Lebron, well, that's the Lakers brand, Lebron alone can't make this team succeed. Lebron almost hit a triple double, but that was his normal, what is not normal here is he only hit 1 from 8 attempts in 3 points and he has 5 turnovers.
That's true and you can see it with every play they make. Unlike their roster last year, they are full of life with Howard and McGee on the bench.
Their contribution though was fruitful when they fought against the Nuggets giving Jokic a hard time below the rim.
Speaking of Nuggets, they lose against the Hawks today.
Another good performance from Trae Young and now achieved his 51th 30+ points of his career. Amazing.
Hello guys,
Could anyone tell me about the injury Anthony Davis suffered in his calf this past week? Will he really be away for 4 weeks? Or will he be able to return to the games sooner? Is he having a good recovery?

It seems he will indeed be gone for 4 weeks or even more. Achilles injury is tricky and I expected them to not rush AD to get back in the court. It's also a good thing Lakers are number 3 in the West and can sustain their position but this is going to another adjustment for Lebron. Although Lakers are a solid defensive team, they will still miss how good AD scores especially in mid post action.
Clipper vs Brooklyn Nets. I think we have some good game today, what team do you guys think will win?
I Like the Brooklyn Nets, they are having a good run now even without Durant, I guess they'll continue winning?
Clippers stopped Jazz win streak, are they gonna stop the Nets win streak tonight too?
I love to hear your thoughts on the game.

Honestly Clippers are getting a lot of points from the odds makers so I think there is more to this game than we know. At first glance I'd say the nets should at least play this tight, they are playing really good right now. Even with Durant out if kyrie and harden are playing I dont see why they should be getting 6.5 points. In my eyes maybe 2.5 but now watch the clips win by 20 lol.

Yes. That's assured that he'll be out for 4 weeks to take some rest. Could anyone tell me about the injury Anthony Davis suffered in his calf this past week? Will he really be away for 4 weeks? Or will he be able to return to the games sooner? Is he having a good recovery?
Don't worry, that isn't a long time for him to be out and that's enough for him to recover. As per being one of the key players of the Lakers, he needs enough time to rest.
This will affect most of the bettors for the Lakers but just think of it as a proper rest that he needs for future games that they have to win.

As per Coach Vogel said that he would be indeed out for 4 weeks due into that calf strain injury.
This is per latest result and to know about these type of injuries that it isnt really severe rather than seeing those types where a certain player
would need to rest for the entire season which you dont really need to worry much.

Gasol did not score 24 points, he played 24 minutes and only scored 6 points. Honestly, I can't even remember Gasol scored a double digit in Lakers uniform, I think his game has not improve yet with the Lakers.
Gasol scores only 4.4 points per game this season, and it's the lowest performance in his career. Maybe the endless list of injuries has influenced his game. And yeah, he scored more than 10 points only twice this season.

Lakers did not appreciate Howard's contribution during the NBA Finals, they took Gasol because of his good resume but unfortunately for many games he played, we didn't see any significant contribution from him, his offense is limited and his defense is not so impressive.
It wasn't about appreciating Howard or not, it was about Marc Gasol who was seen as a decent salary player accepting minimum salary, I am not saying Gasol is better or howard is better but Gasol was seen as minimum 10 million dollar if not more type of player who accepted minimum salary, that was a big deal at the time and everyone said that was one of the greatest steals in the free agent for a long time. Howard is good and all but he was a veteran minimum for a very long time, nobody really was shocked when he was paid his salary.Yes, when you look at it now that looks like a bad deal but in reality I think it is obvious that we are not going to see too much change when AD is back, Gasol is basically just a backup center and Howard was too, AD plays a bulk minute at C and Harrel+Gasol handles the rest which leaves really not that much minutes for backup center.
This is an obvious problem when AD is out but when he comes back this will not be a problem at all. If AD would be out in playoffs, neither Gasol nor Howard would bring them championship without AD anyway so it wouldn't matter that way neither.
Los Angeles Lakers 94 - 96 Miami Heat. It was a tight game where Nunn scored 27 points, Jimmy Butler had 24 points and eight rebounds, Bam Adebayo had 16 points and 10 rebounds. LeBron James had 19 points, nine assists, and nine rebounds. As we commented yesterday, no Anthony Davis no party, they need him much than ever because Mark Gasol is not taking the lead, he is not doing a normal season and his performance is quite poor. The sad news from the Heat side was that Tyler Herro left after playing less than 14 minutes due to a hip pointer, so let's see if he is fully recovered for the next match.
The game last night was good but the Lakers didn't get enough score in the 4th quarter as their shot was terribly missing. Now they starting to get some losses after AD is out, Lebron needs to secure some wins in order to keep their high spot in the playoff because if they fell to number 7 or 8 that would be a hard thing to maintain because teams are competing tightly to get to that spot. The Lakers really need to sign some big man in order to sub for Gasol and AD, they should have kept Dwight for this kind of situation he can help a lot.
Agree to that, Howard is capable of helping LeBron while AD is out.
He can provide good defense and some offense if given a chance, unlike Gasol who's not providing when he's really needed. the support
that LeBron needs from everyone should be more aggressive they all work together while AD is not healthy yet, securing good spot before
the second round is very important, needs adjustment from all of them.

scores up high on this game with 24 points but still im not really that impressed towards under the basket defense and offense.
Good thing that they do able to compensate when AD isnt on the floor specially Kuzma.
Defensively Lakers were fine overall, I mean you cant expect to keep nba teams under 90 points. They will be fine. They will lose some tough games but they will win the way ones and when AD gets back and they start the stretch to the playoffs Bron will turn it up a notch.

No Davis big problem for Lakers they must really do a big adjustment after all of those losses since if they cannot boost up their roosters well they might struggle more in the absence of Davis, I don't know what's the problem on them since even if there's no AD on their rotation they still have solid starting 5 and bench players maybe they are just relying on LBJ so best if their coaching staff could find another strategy to cut their losing streak.
That's true. I watched the game until the end and the Lakers just got a small lead in the 3rd.
After that, the Heat get back for another 8-0 run.
What's missing? Defensively, they are good but offensively they lack something.
No AD and Schroder who are more capable to make shots and can also spread the floor to obtain a better looking shot for their team mates.
The Heat just defended Lebron pretty well and they are all affected by it.
That's what happened because they rely too much on Lebron, well, that's the Lakers brand, Lebron alone can't make this team succeed. Lebron almost hit a triple double, but that was his normal, what is not normal here is he only hit 1 from 8 attempts in 3 points and he has 5 turnovers.
