Blazers won against Denver, now they are tied with Memphis in wins. The race for 8th seed has become more and more interesting, on the other hand, Suns are also winning, they are in 4 win streak now, but 2 wins behind the Blazers, so I think, this competition is only between the Blazers and the Memphis but Blazers had a better chance as they have a good record so far.

Meanwhile, the hype of pelicans is over, Zion's team tank in the bubble, they will miss the playoffs, 100% sure.

After that win from Blazers, Memphis needs to catch up, currently they are leading 15 points against the OKC still the last minute
of 3rd, they need to work if they really wants to stay to continue in the second round.

Still unsure who's going to get the last spot, 3 teams are trying Memphis,
Blazers and Sun all are good and deserving whoever made it to the next round.

Does anyone have the same feeling as premier league relegation zone fighting with the western conference 8th seed (and 9th with new rules) as well?
I feel like they are pretty similar. Also I think Spurs do not have that chance anymore, they started out very well but we are talking about a team that is missing one of their best players, Coach Pop seems to be trusting the new kids a lot more, Lonnie gets a lot more minutes, there is more times with Rudy Gay at the center with small ball line up, a lot less Bryn Forbes like fans wanted all year, yet at the end of the day without LMA they are not as good, I am not saying LMA makes them who they are but missing an important piece does cause you to be worse.

Grizllies just too ahead of other teams to lose from here and Portland has been awesome. Suns can't keep this up forever and will eventually lose. I still don't know who will go to playoffs but it is super fun to watch.

Yet grizz has a decent leeway to win and that is why they would probably either get 8th or 9th and go to that 8th vs 9th new thing, the other would could be either Portland by the looks of it or Spurs, right now both of those teams are playing very well but unfortunately both of them have a very difficult path as well with the schedule but I think that makes it even more fun to watch Cheesy

The perks of having a good standing before the 8 games to finish the regular season idea come off Grin

, so, still... chances of maintaing the least spot is relatively high than those teams beneath them. The problem with Grizzlies is that, they were on lose streak and most of their defeats were just a close game which is quite bothering.

And yeah, they were all interesting to watch though. I still have my hope on Grizzlies to maintain the spot. Even though they seemed messed up there Undecided

.

Blazers and Spurs are tailing and knowing the experienced of both teams,

they are there to compete, this Memphis losing streaks is placing them to a risky 8 spot journey,.

It's exciting to see that the playoff run of Spurs is still alive.
I just want to mentioned as they have really long post
coming to playoffs.

Yes, the western conference are more exciting now, teams have been competing pretty well in the number 8 spot.

Look at the ranking, every team has a chance now, it's because Memphis keeps losing. Grin

The 8th seed spot for western conference is doing so well that I can't miss a single game, all of them looks awesome. Right now grizz are at 20.0 difference, Portland 21.0, spurs 22.0, pelicans 22.0, suns 22.5 and kings 23.0 , I think Kings are out because it looks like 3 difference in this many games requires other teams to constantly lose and I doubt that would happen, even Suns are in big trouble.

Doesn't matter if Raptors will play solid or not, it's risky to expect them to cover the -7.5 handicap.

Risky but they still covered with a very good win.
They won by 10 points against the Magic, they are perfect so far I guess.

Quote from: chaser15 on August 05, 2020, 06:25:12 PM

It's worth keeping up in mind that Orlando Magic also plays well since the resume and successfully snatches 5 wins out of 6 games.

But that's your money. Just giving my opinion as there is other betting options that much better to put-in compare to Raptors handicap.

Bookmakers would not give -7.5 if Raptors chance to cover it is very low.

Well, they did cover it and I'm pretty sure we have a lot of bettors who fall for the very attractive +7.5 after seeing the previous day games where most underdogs win and cover the spread.

I really thought Rockets will win that game against the Blazers but they have a goal. That is to win every game and manage to steal the 8th seed. Same goes for the Spurs. Wink

But who would've thought it will be that intense.

Rockets were making so much three point shots but they still got outscored and that's what made them lose yesterday against the Blazers. It was close in the end I remember they tied in the 4th quarter at one point but it wasn't enough.

Rockets relied on outside shooting so much as they don't have an edge in the inside, they opt to play small ball this season, so let's see if that would be successful for them especially in the playoffs.

now how this defending champ
have improved even without kawhai they are still playing solid.

After the underdogs performing well yesterday it's probably worth betting on them live and wait for the handicap to go down.

I would go for the underdog now after yesterday, it seems like teams that have a secured standing might choose to give a limited time to their starters.
Maybe the Raptors here will not show what they've showed in the previous game as they have already proven themselves that they can beat the Lakers.

High percentage to win that Raptors game against Magic later.
But with low moneyline. You will need to sacrifice some points for a better win. Grin

I think Clippers will win the championship this season. Their line up is good, the players good and they really have the potential to win the championship or maybe at least they’re on the semis. Though they lose last time, that’s not the reason to lose in their next game. They are just protecting there selves to injury. The season has just started they don’t play every games like finals. Much better to play safe than to get injury.

I don't even consider this close.

If you will be looking at the game again their coach are lineups are like a preseason team. Giannis is in the game for what? Like 20 minutes and he's done. I think the reason behind this is just that they wanted Brooklyn to take the 8th spot and for them to have a smooth run in the playoffs, what do you guys think?

It could be though. But do they even really need to go to such length? I mean, they were good enough to beat whatever team might take the 8th spot, in my opinion Undecided

. Anyway, they still show great gameplay despite Giannis limited time Grin

.

One more thing, funny thing I stumble upon while looking for some news between the two is this (can't help but to share):

Quote

Garrett Temple said the Nets saw the Rockets over by the pool yesterday. Told them they had the Bucks and apparently gave them some tips on how to beat the Bucks.

Source: https://www.google.com/amp/s/clutchpoints.com/nba-news-rockets-dish-out-details-nets-how-beat-bucks-disney-world-resorts-pool/amp/

It seems like, it works out Grin

. But nah, just kiddin', and I won't even say that it was a real deal game, if Bucks weren't even letting out their two main guys for long.

Bucks losing, Lakers losing to raptors, clippers losing 2 games, rockets losing to Portland. It looks like big teams didn't come to play, they just came in to have fun and stroll through the regular season 8 games and just focus on making as much fitness and match shape they can before they go into games that really matters.

I understand that after such a long break if they somehow get back into playing with 100% they might actually hurt themselves so they need to be careful, but I am not seeing even 70% from most teams, they are playing with 30-40% at best. Obviously not for lower end teams, the 8th spot for western conference looks like it is going to be freaking awesome, we are talking about 4 teams that could potentially be there, and it could be any one of them.

Top teams doesn't need to play like they usually play, it's just a bonus if they will play harder but they know the risk of getting injured, for example, if the Lakers will be hard and they got Davis injured, their playoff journey might be affected as Davis is valuable in the team, but the last time they played against the Jazz, I think that one they really play hard.

Who watched the match of Brooklyn Nets and Milwaukee Bucks. Well, Bucks lost but the game was hot and intense as Giannis and Hall gets into each other. Giannis was about to attack and confront Hall but he was stopped and the game continued.

The game was close. That last second of DiVincenzo, I thought that it will make a buzzer-beater but it didn't because the ball taps to his leg.

I don't even consider this close.

If you will be looking at the game again their coach are lineups are like a preseason team. Giannis is in the game for what? Like 20 minutes and he's done. I think the reason behind this is just that they wanted Brooklyn to take the 8th spot and for them to have a smooth run in the playoffs, what do you guys think?

Possible they choose to let brooklyn wins over their team. This is really possible because this is also about betting. Remember the game lakers and raptors where raptors win the game. Lakers relatively had the advantage on that match but it seems like they betting on the other side so this results for letting them to give the win to raptors. So this goes the same way to bucks and brooklyn. Bucks record is already on top so win or loss in that game they can still have the chances to take the spot.
