As if Warriors got the second pick! I know most of the time second pick may not become a huge super star, and they usually do not provide skill right away, but remember last year's second pick was Ja Morant and we all know how that turned out. I think warriors are already quite amazing, they just had a bad season because of all the injuries. They still have Steph, they have Klay and they have Wiggins now and they have Dray, these are all great players, plus they are going to get the second pick as well, which will be something huge for them.
If they draft well (and considering they drafted steph, klay, dray all themselves I think they are good at drafting) that is another 5-10 years of awesome team for them, it is unfair what happened with them, but they were one of the worst teams this season and played g-league players all year so it makes sense.

Finally Lakers showed like a true team last night as they concede only 1 Quarter to Portland and that was more than enough for them to secure the win. I do think from now one, Blazers won't get another win against Lakers. However, on the other Los Angeles team I have my fears now as Mavs seems to have one good ride this year and I won't be surprised to see them winning overall over Clippers.
It is a redemption game, I'm happy because I won when I made a bet in LAL. I'm really sure that it is a revenge game where the LAL will beat the Blazers. At 1st half, we saw the biggest difference when it comes to points where Liliard was having a hard time to make a score because of the tough defense of the Lakers. But it doesn't mean that the defense of the Blazers is weak because their center is really strong which is Hassan Whiteside where he has a lot of shot blocks in every game. On the game 3, I will make a bet to Lakers again. I'm just predicting that they will have consecutively 4 wins especially Liliard injured his index finger when he reach the ball while Davis Driving.

Never underestimate Kawhi. Dude is just a beast in these situations. I just think the clips will end up being too strong for the mass but hey anything is possible in these neutral court games. Clips lost home court advantage...but I would never bet against Kawhi.

The series is tied and I think this is going to be a long series for these two teams. I haven't followed any other game, what's good series to follow? I mean all of them are but what's hyping you guys?
Since the ejection of Porzingis, I've been following the game of Mavericks and Clippers.
It's also one of the hottest series that's popping on my news feed. Gotta start following them.
Damian Lillard is good and said that he might not be back at game 3 which gives it away that it would be a clear 2-1 lead by the LA Lakers, if Dame is not there. He's been the score leader of the team and I think it would be a hard game without him.
He's good taking a rest for a while and get back when he's good again.

The 2020 NBA draft lottery just finished. Sorry Knicks fans, you got the 8th pick.
Here are the results, the number 1 pick goes to T'Wolves, the second pick is for Golden State and third are Charlotte Hornets.
Prior to the lottery, the three teams with the worst winning % (GSW, Cavs, and T'wolves) had all the best shot of taking the number 1 pick sitting at 14%.
As of right now, the NBA draft is set to take place on October 16, but that may change if the new season is delayed.
Which young prospect do you think Minnesota will pick at #1, Anthony Edwards, LaMelo Ball, or James Wiseman?
Yeah great another disappointing seeding for the Knicks whats new lol. They haven't nailed the lottery since the Ewing draft. Slot 8 is the worst spot. Makes me cringe thinking back to when GS picked steph 7 and the Knicks ended up with jordon hill 8th lol. Ever since I'd rather have the knicks a spot lower
either way its an unimpressive draft this year, think minnesota should go with Edwards or Wiseman, I'd steer clear of the ball family This is a great game for Lakers.
AD and KCP are on fire, especially AD. A facebook even made a photo of it calling it "Brow time", maybe a tease to Dame's Dame time. I don't know but that hype would really fell with this result still, I think Blazers can do better. We also see Damian injuring his finger with his steal on AD, will that affect the future games of the team?
If it's just a minor injury, there's no need to worry. AD and KCP are on fire, especially AD. A facebook even made a photo of it calling it "Brow time", maybe a tease to Dame's Dame time.

DAMIAN LILLARD
PG, PORTLAND TRAIL BLAZERS
Damian Lillard suffered a dislocated left index finger on his left (non-shooting) hand in Thursday's probable loss to the Lakers, but X-rays were negative.
Lillard threw a towel in anger on his way to the locker room, leading some to believe that he might have broken the finger, so the fact X-rays were negative is great news in the grand scheme of things.
He won't return, but is back on the bench and our guess is he'll be out there for Game 3 on Saturday. And it will probably take more than a sore finger on his non-shooting hand to slow him down in that one.

As I expected, I don't think that the Lakers will make themselves down 0-2 in the first round. I still remember when LBJ said to Kobe that he will bring the champion back to LA. He has still a mission to do so I don't think that they will lose on this game 2. Same with the Bucks and Magic. I didn't expect that Bucks will put themselves down 0-2 against the possible weakest team in the Playoffs.The injury of Dame can affect their game but not that much if he will come out strong in Game 3. I just hope that it will not get re-injured on their next game or this will be a one-sided match up.
I don't know, any injury to a finger for a shooter is devastating. Now if someone like anthony Davis had that happened he can just play more inside and adjust but dames game is 15 feet and out. Be interested to see how this effects the series. A shame because I actually think portland is a tough match up for the lakers...but thats with dame playing at 100%

If Lillard could come back in game 3, it would be an interesting match up.
I don't know if there's a stats on about this, the first team to win in game 1, wins the series,.. I just heard it in some other forum.
I haven't followed any other game, what's good series to follow? I mean all of them are but what's hyping you guys?
The other good series to watch are the Mavericks vs Clippers and Nuggets vs Jazz... I can't find any interesting match up in the East.

Now watching lakers vs portland 0-1 portland win in the first game of the playoff series. This match will probably goes to lakers they had a good cooperation and bigger guys inside the court with Howard, Davis and Lebron. Besides, lakers had also some good shooting players like Green.
What do you think the outcome of this game? Do you agree that lakers will take to win the game this time? I can't waiti to see how Lakers do their play to get tied in the series.

That was a good win by the Lakers. Won by 23 points, big win to even the series. I doubt people would still believe on the hype as they saw how the Blazers got dominated in the game. I think the best series in the West now are the Mavericks vs Clippers.

I guess we know where will we be betting then.
That would be really frustrating. He's been doing his best and this happens. I guess CJ would be doing the scores the next game. I'm not doubting Blazers but I would be with Lakers here and I think if Damian didn't play next game, Lakers would take the lead in the series.

Positive news, he does not broke his finger but he might not play in game 3, but it's still a good news as the series is tied, maybe he can play in game 4 and put that Dame time show again.

Which young prospect do you think Minnesota will pick at #1, Anthony Edwards, LaMelo Ball, or James Wiseman?
That's only between Ball and Edwards I suppose but if for the better of Minnesota I'd rooting Ball on them the young lad has sure much experience especially what he gets from Australia NBL. Plus he will not be picked by the GSW, of course, because of Lavar. Well, if Timberwolves don't pick Ball he'd end up on Bills but I think there will be some trade to be done, I'd assume it will happen.

Miami win at 109 | 100 over Pacers today's game. Incredible performance by Robinson: 24 PTS in 25 MIN at the playoffs.
Houston win at 111 | 98 over OKC today's game as well. Harden does it again without WB.
That's 2-0 for both Rockets and Heat Teams, they got it good in the early rounds, probably they will advance in the 2nd round. Houston win at 111 | 98 over OKC today's game as well. Harden does it again without WB.
Both teams are pretty eager to step up into another series.
2 exciting games today that was not concluded yet, I'm excited to see if MVP candidates such us Giannis and Lebron are going to bounce back from the big loss in the first game.
Bucks vs Magic now live.
