Same here, I'll go for Zion but I would vote for Ja Morant to win as the ROY as he is consistent this season, unlike Zion which was injured and rested for awhile. Let's see which team will advance in the playoffs and which player would be a great contributor to their team.

No need to vote as Ja Morant is the sure winner for Rookie of the Year.

I like to see the difference in their rookie stats if only Zion hasn't got injured.

Ja Morant is a sure winner, I agree with that and to see them play this NBA comeback is gonna be good for the fans as they will see which player will carry their team to success. No hate for both as I really like how they perform this season, hopefully they'll be healthy as they continue playing and improving.

For playoffs, it's now safe to say that Memphis already made it. 4 wins behind 8th is already an advantage and those teams on 8th below are considered strong teams too so consecutive wins at these bottoms teams are not that easy making Memphis 7th spot a sure spot.

Yes they have the advantage, but we never know since the venue is different, teams below their ranking are good teams too, we have the Blazers and the Spurs which are consistent in the playoffs, so who knows.

I would say even if someone who loves Wolves to death gets it, there is still not that much chance for them to suddenly become good. KG or other guy could get it and there is still not that much they can do about it. First of all you have to realize these are team owners and not managers, there is general manager position under them who make a ton of decisions and there is also staff with head coach at the head and there is also players so there is a ton of stuff that owners can't control or even if they hire or fire someone new that doesn't guarantee a win at all. Also it requires a ton of money to continue owning a sports franchise and unless you are super rich most of the time its not going to be something everyone can handle, you can give me Wolves for free and I wouldn't be able to pay the extra needed parts. People only do it because the value of the franchise increases x10 times more than the money you spend on it.

It looks like the Minnesota Timberwolves has been made available for sale by their owner Glen Taylor. There have been rumors that there is a chance that the team might relocate to Seattle if some suitors will be interested buying it but the current owner of the Timberwolves had made it clear that his only condition was to make the Timberwolves stay at Minnesota so the only clear options named right now is either the Wilf brothers or their former player, Kevin Garnett. The former one might be the likely candidate for the takeover as they are also the owners of the Minnesota Vikings which might make Taylor be confident that the team will really stay in the state.

Though the owner has this plan selling his franchise the good thing is he still wanted to make sure that the team will stay at Minnesota,

This will be interesting if KG will buy it, He start his career there and even there's a gap between him and Glen Taylor if he pursue

acquiring this team maybe there's changes for the future of this team, Let's see how things will turned regarding to this news.

The timing is bad, was it because of the pandemic, even an NBA team struggle so they are selling the team. I read somewhere that an average cost of a team in the NBA was around $4 billion USD, I think Kevin net worth is not that big, unless they'll buy it as a corporation or with other investors.

Good thing I found it while searching in Youtube and surprised JaVale McGee has a Youtube channel and documented some of the thing there, love to see some action now. Cheesy

Alex Caruso's sister had a wedding and Alex didn't even go to that because he was afraid people would be too close without masks and there would be some trouble with it and he opt in for staying in the bubble. I think Lakers are taking things very very seriously, from whatever we heard they are really just focusing on the title very much, they know that they do not have anyone important missing and with the roster they have they might be basically the best team in the league renaming right now.

I feel that is going to make a difference as well, it is going to be like Lakers versus all other teams with missed players. I am 99% sure everyone will come back in not bad shape but playing a game is different and that is why there could be more injuries. If Lakers could stay away from injuries they are certainly my favorite right now.

We're are not using cable anymore but on weekends on TV5 will it be a live game or just via satellite? Still a good news though even just a rumor but hoping it will be available and it's exciting watching even just the scrimmage, totally miss the NBA fever.

I don't have more information about it, but my guess, we will be able to watch a live game since it's being air weekdays.

The NBA Premium HD as well is being added at channel One Sports & TV5.

Thanks for sharing, I'd like to avail on the NBA premium but I guess i need to buy a new TV box as my old sky direct box is not anymore operational, the network was shut down apparently, so I'm looking for a new alternative. TV5 airs free but not on a daily basis, man I need to watch it daily if possible.

Then buy a premium one if you want to watch everyday, simple as that so you wouldn't miss any of it.

I am thinking first because boxing a TV box is another expense, I know I can use the satellite dish, but I am not sure also if there's a provider that sells a box only, I heard, they are selling a set (tv box and satellite dish), so more bigger expenses and at this time we know making money is not easy.

A Clippers player leaves the bubble.

He can still get back once he's done with quarantine as he reenters. I wish him to be good and fine with his personal matter.

So amazing how Harden and Westbrook can immediately go back after being positive last week.

They are athletes, no doubt they can surpass that virus at high speed.

Quote from: Janation on July 21, 2020, 09:28:15 PM

Hope for their best against Orlando in the coming days. This is really hyping me up. On the other hand, Zion is given his space for an "urgent family medical emergency". The article also said that he might still be able to play on the last 6 games of the team. Since we are talking about Ja and Zion for the ROTY, does this really means Ja?

Even if Zion completes that 8 game tournament it will be Ja Morant.
If Zion wins, NBA just proved there is deep politics in the damn management.
There is nothing to consider anymore or if they do, they will lose a lot of fans.
Fairness is still better than just making money.
Ja worked hard for it putting the Grizzlies in the 8th rank.

Precisely. Well, what to expect from an athletic guy. They have the great immune system, so it's high chances that they can defeat the virus in just 14 days timeframe.

While the both of them are deserving to be the ROYT. I guess, let's see how they'll play the 8th seeding games towards to their Playoffs goal (that would be better to tell who will be called the ROYT). Zion to miss one or two games and Ja to play the complete games, sounds fun.

Standing: Western Conference

Code:

W | L
8. MEM - 32 33
9. POR - 29 37
10. PEL - 28 36

It will be tough for the three of them, but exciting to see the outcome. Cheesy

There could be another the same sale or there will be none in the future. But this is one of the best that ever happened in the cards collection of NBA players. This is opening a new opportunity and idea where to invest. I guess for people who will see the opportunity in it should also be aware of the risk that you will bear upon entering it. And as much as possible, do it for the sake of your passion and love and think of the profit as the bonus.

That's a good reason. Better stay with that. As your passion and not just for profit in the future. It's a plus if that happens.
Well, if you are going to invest in it, the better choice is for a rookie. Like that same card of Lebron, that was his rookie days.

Which will you pick.
Ja Morant card or Zion card.
I'll go for Ja and RJ Barrett card. Grin

I feel something will improve with RJ, it may not be now or next year, someday.

Yes, the profit shall come if the time is right. As long as you keep it as your personal collection but also aware of the future that's in it, you've got to be holding it. I can't think of choosing any of those because what's on my mind is to look for those known players as of date but you just gave me a good idea. Just like the early days of Lebron, lucky those collectors that took his card and signed by him which made it authentic and added value to the card.

I looked at my sportsbook but there's no betting line and the certain game are not displayed, instead I see this in the in play betting.

Anyone has an idea how this game is done?

That's only played on console by some NBA virtual players I guess and they are not the real thing as to the actual sport. I am waiting too for the reopening to bet on a sportbook, basically I only bet on basketball not that fond of other events.

But you can put a bet on this one, right? That screenshot is from my sportsbet.io account, that's the sportsbook I am using right now, I am just curious as I have no idea about the game, and I also don't want to put my bet until I am educated with that kind of game.

Of course you can bet on that one, that's where i bet on basketball lately

. Just don't dive on the bet button directly, observe the pattern of the games, scores per quarter, for example and you will get some idea on where to bet. For me, it's better than the actual NBA games lol, profitable for me so far.

Exactly, I'd rather bet on the actual physical sport compare to this one because you can easily observe especially on the pattern of scoring. Though you can also study this one but I think it's solely on the gamer not the team composed on it.

You don't have to bet on that guys as the betting odds is already available, it was shared in

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.54841630

check that out, and start capping games early. First game, Lakers vs Clippers. probably a good match to start the reopening, but if they are not playing in a full squad, it might not be as entertaining as we are expecting, so let's hope all will play and will play at their best.

That's good to know but I think I'll probably wait until the sportsbook I use to play with opens the betting.

The thing about this season is, it all depends on who you can bring. Just to give you an obvious example, Rockets are missing Harden and Westbrook at the same time, they are the best players in that team and obviously that makes them a horrible team without them. Lakers being healthy and coming back like a powerhouse would make them obvious choice for championship, but people are only reading the good news and the bad news, people do not check no news teams. For example Clippers still do have almost all of their players, sure they are missing Harrel at center and they are I think missing some bench as well but Kawhi and PG is still there, some other players as well. Bucks do not have any bad news as far as I know neither, nor does Raptors. So yes, we heard some bad news and some good news but we should check out the teams that we haven't heard from, they are still a valid contender as well.

Clippers are one of the favorites also here but missing Harrel on the especially on his board and defensive awareness. I just remembered an article about how important Harrel on the team here https://www.in.nba.com/amp/news/the-la-clippers-wont-win-the-nba-championship-if-montrezl-harrell-cant-be-montrezl-harrell/9cive4ral0tw179qfu0a15t7l

He may not be of a big guy we would expect to guard the painted area but the man is really has an exceptional defensive skill especially contesting shots. They still got Zubac, Green and Noah and I think they still got a big shot. I do hope he resolves it in due time and expect to join the rest of the team on the bubble.
