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.

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?
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.

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.

Latest update on Damian Lillard.  https://www.rotoworld.com/basketball/nba/player/29806/damian-lillard


Quote

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.

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.

The 2020 NBA draft lottery just finished. Sorry Knicks fans, you got the 8th pick.  Cheesy

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?

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.


Both teams are pretty eager to step up into another series. Cheesy

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.

Doncic is really something special, this dude is bringing Mavs against two superstars and a team that basically had one of the most amazing comebacks against a superteam last year, the clippers.

No question about his special skills as we witness how this young kid delivered, he showed that in front of the stars he can still shine.

So, I think Mavs will do fine for themselves in the future, specially with some good enough trades and free agents or so, they could actually fight for a title if they are lucky, sometimes one team becomes so good that even though you are fine you get to not be champions for a while, but if the season is like this one, where all teams are closer to each other, I would say in few years Dallas will be contenders.

For now, the chance of getting the title is to slim, but you are right it will be there soon, keeping KP and curry then add more
role players behind Luka, expect another ring for this team.

However, I still think this season Clippers will beat them and move to next round. Weird how first and second seed all lost a game, you would expect them to be much better.

Not weird, because those who are in number 7-8  are teams who also have the capabilities to be on top, MAVS and BLAZERS are
a caliber class of teams.

That Dallas Mavericks win was big, it was very convincing and I thought if KP wasn't ejected in game 1, the series could be 2-0 now.
Probably.

I've been wondering if Paul George has hiding an injury as per this article or he just played ineffective today (14 PTS 4/17 FG) that most likely caused of their lose. This is bad if he continues to play inconsistent.

-
Yeah, and props to their bench players, they did stepped up, and that was a huge factor on their win. Anyway, I wonder why Boban only played for a limited minutes? That guy had some insane stats for a 10 minutes playtime 13pts and 9rebs? He could've accomplished better numbers there, if he will be given more minutes to play  Sad.

If these underdogs (Blazers, Mavs, Magic) maintain their composure. We might be able to see unexpected teams to win the series on the next round  Grin.

Great things happened and it's fun to watch this young guns playing against a solid team.
That night was special also as our young Luka got some big recognition.




Indeed that was a big win for mavericks since dirk is not around anymore, Porzingis is taken it from here and with the help of Luka. This playoff games are starting to get on fire. This is what we are waiting for, the games we have been excited to see for 3 months. Clippers need to make their own version of strategies to stop these two key players or else they will be added to those team that faced devastating defeat.

Maybe the injury of Beverley affected their defense. We know how good he is at defense.
That for sure has an impact on the team considering his aggressiveness to go for offensive rebounds during the Game 1 that's a huge loss for them. I think it can take weeks as per Coach Rivers said and I don't think he'll able as well to play for the next game, we'll see that.

They still have Lou on them but that's just talking about the offense as a PG/SG they still need veteran PG like Beverly in the play.

Luka Magic did it again and they've won against a defensive team like Clippers.
Their bench stepped up and KP didn't get ejected. If they will continue to play like this, there is a chance that the Battle of LA will not happen in the West Finals.
I'm expecting the Clippers to lose now, lol.. we might see an epic battle between the Blazers and Mavericks if both LA would lose in the first round.

Maybe the injury of Beverley affected their defense. We know how good he is at defense.
I agree with that, they put Jackson and he provide offense instead, so without Beverley, things will be the same, Mavericks will continue to attack as they also dominate the paint with KP's length and Bovan.

Good that I placed my bet against the Mavs because I'm expecting for them to win this time since they only lost by 8 points without KP in Game 1.
I'd go with Mavs too with Game 3 but on the series, I think the Clippers will win in 7 games Cheesy.

Congrats on your win, lots of winners today backing the Mavericks, some people also won in the betting thread.

yeah, Luka is the future, and prove that Dallas could pick a player, after Nowitzki long time ago, they now picked Doncic, and he will be a great star
title this season seems to be out of reach, but i think that they will pick a few with Luka in the coming years

congrats on last night match, and it is good to see support from Porzingis, but also Hardaway, Burke, Curry had a good role, with Marjanovic posing a solid one 13 pts and 9 rb

I think Luka had a better future ahead than Dirk.
This man is just special, he can be a triple double guy if he likes, sure that assist would also hit or average of 10 per game as he is a good facilitator, and he can generate points on himself too, and rebound, he is damn good. His talent and his basketball IQ is what made him special.

Game 3, still Dallas Mavericks.
