Dallas won.
Now they are tied at 1-1.

That's the difference when KP is in unlike how refs ejected him the 1st game.
It should have been a win too.
5 fouls for Luka but the bench filled the hole. Burke had made a lot of good moves and made a good contribution for the team.
I like the Dallas team but now I love them.
Luka doesn't want out after the 5th foul but Coach Carlisle insisted. Trust the team.

At the first half, Boban and KP helps them to have the big lead. We should not also forget the 3 point shots of Luka where the clippers having a hard time to guard him. Even though KP is a 7 footer, he has good shooting ability where he can shoot beyond 3 point area. On the other hand, Kawhi is doing good but he can't fully lift the team because Paul George is not doing good. Actually the field goal percentage of Paul George is so low in that game.

Yeah the game tied now to 1-1. I never expect that Dallas could win that game. It was a tie score in the 4th quarter and dallas settle the game on overtime period. Well, I guess this is NBA and most of the time surprises happen. However, in this match I still believe in Clippers. The team got higher chance to win compared to Dallas. Kawhi and Paul George is a good combination in their plays. And Kawhi has standing record on carrying a team for championship.

Another upset Blazers win over Lakers.

What an unlucky night for the Lakers shooting imagine 4 straight missed free throws, how unlucky can they be? Blazers is too clutch for the Lakers, I believe that and the outside shooting it's literally great.

I have no words for Portland.

Those long threes that was made, I don't think that I can't even do that in real life. I remember Melo when everyone discusses about him when he's struggling to get a team and now, he just won the game 1 although there will be the next game.

But at least the guy had won.

Was that 3s coming from Lillard? that was normal to him, jut like Curry, they can hit long distance 3's effortlessly.
Melo though was not the main man anymore but the is providing in the floor, he made some clutch 3 points when their star player could find an open shop.

Lakers vs Blazers would be interesting too, if Lakers can't even the series, I think it will be blazers who will face the Clippers or Dallas this year.

No offense to the Rockets, they are also doing well, but Dallas and Blazers and a more exciting team to watch.

Yeah, it's normal for him.

I'm amazed with those long threes and I'll be waiting for more of it with their 2nd game.

This series shows that they are all in adjustments. I'll be watching with the other teams too. Dallas just won, so they're on 1-1 tied standing with LAC.

I'm not a fan of either Bucks and Lakers but the upset should just be mentioned if these 8th seeded teams will win their respective series.

That's why...hahaha..

Fans think their team got upset because they believe they will win in every game, or could be upset in just a game, that is different from upset in the series.

Quote from: chaser15 on August 19, 2020, 06:05:26 PM

Remember the famous 1st Seed Spurs vs 8th Seed Memphis? Grizzlies defeat the Spurs on Game 1 but no one called it as upset. After the series won by the Grizzlies, that's what we can be called an upset.

You nailed it, but like I mentioned, that depends on how one will see it, it could be per game or per series.

Lakers and Bucks haters are just happy with the result,. Grin

I don't understand why the term upset is being mostly used just because Magic defeats the Bucks and Blazers defeats the Lakers. Should be, we are surprised by the result but not an upset.

It's a series match and the Number 1 seed is not immune to being defeated. Should we apply this upset every game?

Smith 0 minutes and Waiters just 1. That might have hurt those two players.

For the record. Lebron now have no reason to blame JR Smith for their defeat today. Fantastic game for Dame though. Cheesy

Surprised L for Milwaukee, probably cause of Home Advantage. Grin

LOL, I was not able to see the entire game, but watching the highlights, I don't see JR Smith there, so maybe they need to play him so they have something to blame or maybe he could help the team to win. Lakers problem in that game was their awful 3 point shooting, JR should be the answer to that.

As for the Lakers, they should've utilize Dion Waiters or JR Smith instead of KCP or even Danny Green they played very rough, and seemed struggling behind the 3pt line. If they only made those buckets or even half of their total fg, they probably get the W here Sad

.

That's one factor too.
I don't know what Frank Vogel is thinking. Green and Caruso combined is just 12 points.
Yeah, their defense is incredible but they also need to fire back.
Waiters and Smith could provide that but Vogel didn't even think about that.
Smith 0 minutes and Waiters just 1. That might have hurt those two players.

I have known Lakers pre-bubble about good rotation. I didn't see that.

I'm watching the entire game and curious why Smith even in uniform not get that chance to play, and aside from that, I saw Kuzma
have a good game but Vogel rest him out after that last basket. Though I'm convinced and really appreciates how Blazers draw the
fight, they played as a team both from offense and defense.

That assist from lilard to melo another killer dagger that sealed the game.

What a big upset!

Milwaukee Bucks lose in the first game against the Orlando Magic.

Final score : 122 -110

Top scorers are,
Orlando - N. Vucevic with 35 points. and Milwaukee , G. Antetokounmpo with 31 points.

So do you still believe in them? Grin

I was upset too, I got it all wrong when I predict 4-0 to the advantages of Milwaukee Bucks in our playoff prediction game in our local board. I gues, I just had high expectations for the Milwaukee Bucks. I forgot that they playing different games right now because of the current situation. Thank goodness I didn't do such predictions on Lakers or I will have double frustrations.

Speculation is coming out, I read some comments online that the refs favored the Clippers as they want the Lakers vs Clippers match up in the WCF.

I'm afraid by tomorrow we will see a lot of bad calls against the Blazers. Sad

I hope this ejection doesn't determine the run of this playoffs, it determines the game but I hope as a whole it doesn't. Fans really wanted to face Clippers and Lakers in the Western CF, I mean, who wouldn't? right? Let's just put it as a speculation and let's see how will Damian "Dolla" Lilliard and his teammates face one of the best teams in the playoffs tomorrow. Gonna put my money against Lakers, I just feel it.

Good luck on that feeling of yours, it looks like fans have found a love on the Blazers, they are in a good run so I believe it will continue if Lillard will not struggle. How about the Blazers vs Mavericks in the WCF? I think that is very surprising and it's gonna be Luka vs Damian and Nuckic vs Jokic, isn't it fun?

That feeling of mine is really correct. Dame and the team put a show proving that he is not the only player that could get that hoops. I don't know what will be the plan of the Lakers the next game. To be clear, I am not a fan of Trail Blazers, it is just that I felt betting on them in this game. I am still a Bucks fan and, well, I lost on that bet.

Quote from: Reid on August 19, 2020, 03:03:45 AM

Not just that.
Lakers is also missing a big piece in their roster.
Avery Bradley. He can contribute a something in the offense but his greatest strength is defense.
Think about Alex Caruso, now upgrade that. Grin

But, they will need to fill that hole.
Someone that will not take off his eyes from Lillard. 34 points is huge. Alex will need to step it up.

Yeah, but still props to Alex Caruso, he did well, those steals he had were pretty good too. It is just that Liliard had some ridiculous range, that guy is insane. He could damn shoot after getting literally past an inch from screen. Tell you what, am getting nervous if he got the ball though, I just can't help but imagine that he can shoot right away after getting past to the logo.

As for the Lakers, they should've utilize Dion Waiters or JR Smith instead of KCP or even Danny Green they played very rough, and seemed struggling behind the 3pt line. If they only made those buckets or even half of their total fg, they probably get the W here Sad

.

Anyway, here are the standing of each team right now:

Lillard heating up on 4th. He didn't even score on 3rd.
Good game for both teams.
I actually thought they are going to lose it.
Reason: Foul trouble. I think 5 of them have 5 fouls.

Congratulations to the winners especially those who didn't put any handicap. I hope I did. But, it's still a win.

That's the beauty of the Blazers this year, they are good in winning especially in close games.
Lakers needs some players to step up, it's hard for them to win in close games when other players are struggling.

This game could have been went to over if Lakers were shooting well in 3 point area.

In this game, they are only shooting 15.6% while Blazers are shooting 38.2%.
