Kevin Durant looks good guys, he is Dunkin already, look like he has fully recovered from injury, but don't expect him in the NBA's restart as he is still not available.

That's good news. The assassin is already in good condition. Maybe next year we will see Brooklyn on top. Grin

I just hope Kyrie will do his best to fully heal his shoulders too.

That problem has been bothering Kyrie for many seasons already based on what I observed, that's his problem with the Celtics too that the team can't rely on him to fully play the whole season or the off-season, and I also remember during the time he was still playing with Lebron James in Cavaliers, he was also injured in the playoffs, and it resulted to a defeat of their team.

Kyrie Irving, Durant, and Dinwiddie, these are the consistent players of the team, hopefully they'll find a good chemistry once all of them are fully healthy again. And I don't like to see this happen again.....

Spencer Dinwiddie leaves Kevin Durant hanging after scoring the clutch basket to give Nets the W!

It's like he is always forcing that shoulder.
I haven't found news that he fully recovered in that portion of that injury.
Perhaps they just saw it as a mild cramp or a worn-out shoulder.

Feb-March 2020 is just the time he took the surgery. I thought it was already done when he was at Celtics.
Which is why we cannot find any news about the recovery.

It's final. Oladipo will sit out for the remaining season.

Quote

“I really want to play, and as a competitor and teammate this is tearing me apart,” Oladipo said. “I feel like I’m at a great place in my rehab and getting closer and closer to 100 percent. With all the variables, from how I have to build my 5-on-5 workload back up, to the increased risk of a soft tissue injury which could delay my rehab, and the unknown exact set up of the bubble, I just can’t get my mind to being fully comfortable in playing. I have to be smart and this decision hasn’t been easy, but I truly believe continuing on the course I’m on and getting fully healthy for the 2020-21 season is the right decision for me.”

I just hope he will be a real star when he gets drafted in the NBA, I don't want to see the same result like his brother who was selected as 2nd overall pick in 2017 but his NBA career with the LA Lakers was not really that impressive.

I also don't follow this kid, but for those who know more about Lonzo and LaMelo, who is better between the two?

IMO, LaMelo. I am not a fan of Lonzo. Too much mistakes even in his professional career.
He is improving though but unlike his brother LaMelo which is already good at his college game.
Also, I think Lonzo is pulled because of the surname.

Honestly this is basically showing how much Lebron cares about JR. Smith and how he values his contribution to the team back in Cavs time as well. Sure he did one amazing and unbelievable mistake but at the same time he was one of the key players that helped them get to that point as well. So in the end if Lebron didn't intervene and asked Lakers organization to not hire him, that could mean that he has forgiven JR for what he did and he thinks that he is more helpful than useless with how many games left in the league. Plus we all know JR and Danny playing together with a decent point guard would mean a lot of shooting and Lebron can be that point guard at any given moment, and they would have a very good defense with that duo as well.

This news about Jr Smith started on a Facebook page transferring to Lakers and it's confirmed that he's going to be with the Lakers. It made me remember the famous meme about him and Lebron, who else did? Grin

If he or they've shoot that one either they have win the game 1 of finals series with a 4-1 standing or that should have changed the fate of the 2018 NBA finals in favor of Cavs, who knows. Grin

Well, we should see how much he can handle the meme once he plays for the team, show them J. More wheezing at Twitter.

Yeah but that remains as a meme and now, they've been reunited by the Lakers. Cheesy

I think they have moved on already with that situation and reaction. They'd be better playing the ring for this season and I'm sure Lebron is feeling that already.

As per the timeline of his recovery, he should now able to practice by June or July.

No need also for others to expect him once the NBA resumed since even without the pandemic virus happened globally, he is expected to play next season which is November this year.

Brooklyn Nets fans surely are excited to see their lineup next season.

Orlando or Nets?

Great article on Kembar Walker. He has a golden opportunity to mark his legacy. The break has been good for him, he has recovered from the pain of his knee and is ready to play basketball.

This is his chance because the system of the Boston Celtics is good compared to his previous team where is the only one who make most of the points, here, he is not carrying an heavy burden as he has a lot of teammates who can provide big contribution for the team. Being healthy is what they need to maintain so they can give a good fight for the favorite teams in the NBA.

I see that this team has been underrated.

I believe that this opportunities for him will give him a big break, the team that he's now playing with is composed of
good talents, they just need to jive in and bring good chemistry.

The Chemistry was already there, Celtics has a good run in this season though they are not in the number 1 spot but they are a good contender not only in the East but in the NBA championship if they ever reach at that level this season.

Quote from: Pamadar on July 03, 2020, 10:15:14 AM

It's good to expect that there's chances for this young Celtics to make good upsets from those
favorites like the Bucks, Sixers and the defending champ Raptors.
The next round will be a good test for Kemba to showcase his talent and help the team moving
forward for the next series.
Too early but there's always a good chance for this young Boston team.

The only top favorites in the East is the Bucks, based on the betting odds I saw, Sixers, Raptors and Celtics are not too far with each other.

Reference.

I have seen an AMA on reddit about a scout in NBA before, and he talked about practices like nothing too serious. If you are Kobe Bryant or Michael Jordan I am sure that it matters to you and there are few players like that. But, you can be assured that the team in general do not give away their secrets. However, in any case if I am the other team I would basically just try to watch all the teams and I would want to see "play calling" hand movements and see how they are doing.

We all know if San Antonio spurs opens up pink and index fingers and close others that means "horn" (it also looks like horns when you do it) and that means 1 will bring up, 2 will set up screen and the other two will be in the corners while everyone ends up running around at the end as well.

You kinda have to learn all of those things if teams practice close to each other, that will not really mean you are 100% better, just means you will have a slight advantage to what you use to know about the other team, a smaaaalll tiny advantage.

Quote from: Oasisman on July 03, 2020, 08:38:28 AM

If your concern is about exposing the team plays and preparation that's making you feel weird, IMO It doesn't bother the team that much If another team will be watching them practice on the court, pretty sure most of the coaches and players knew most of the offensive and defensive plays, but just dunno know when and how are they going to execute it. So, team discussions on how they are going to react offensively/defensively with the opposing team will be done privately, and physical practice on the court.
However, there might a be a few adjustments and limits on the practice.

It just kind of new to me Grin

. Or maybe because I haven't seen something similar with a set up like this. Dunno... am I that naïve? Huh

Haha.

LaMelo Ball still ranking at the top rank here.
I haven't seen the kid play the whole game but I did see some great highlights.
He is something else at his young age.

This young man is promising. Isn't that boy who scored 92 pts in a highschool game back then?

What I like about him is that he goes overseas to explore different experiences with basketball. I admired him for doing that. And maybe because of that, that gives him the edge on being on the top spot rignt now. Beside he got a good highlights, might not be as athletic as Zion and Ja but still he's good like from passing, and shooting from downtown.

Honestly, that meme is not notable to me. I don't remember J.R Smith from that. He is one of the core players that contributes to the success of 2017 Cavaliers. That's what I always remember him that way and not on that meme.

Exactly!
People need to stop making those meme a laughing stock, as If Jr has no contribution to each and every step the Cavs are successful with.
As far as I could remember he was also one of the core players along side with Carmelo in Denver on his early days averaging 15points per game, and battled against the Lakers in 2009 Western conference finals.

Btw, I'm happy they're reunited again.

I am happy too. I almost forget about this but it popped up in my facebook recently about what I shared two years ago.
I was a meme that's not suppose to happen, but now it will come into reality.

Nice read : KEMBA'S SHOT HAS FINALLY COME

Quote

After winning everything in college, Kemba Walker spent his first eight NBA seasons on a team without a chance. That's why he's in Boston, and this is his moment to create a new legacy.

Number 9 draft pick and was put to the worst team.
This mostly happens to single-digit draft pick players especially the top 1.
They need years to be traded to a better team or if not, that worst team will make an overhaul in their roster.
Yeah, this might be his chance. They might not have the physical power but Celtics do have the speed and offensive explosiveness.

A great find for the article.

Ja Morant for the win. Zion missed lots of games.

So unfortunate. I badly want to see their overall stats after a season in a healthy status.

But I'm with Morant here. Believed me, only few anticipated that Grizzlies will able to join the battle for the playoffs spot in a competitive Western Conference.
