Who among you guys have a feeling that LA. Lakers will lose to tomorrows Game? I really have a feeling here that the Pelicans can have a boost of scores on this upcoming game. Besides isn't it too hot for Lakers having a straight wins, this something like playing dice games LoL the amount of luck will alse be depleted even once for a while. (Actually I made a bet on the Pelicans for tomorrow's Game 😂)  
I don't think so because I believe the opposite. I think they can win this easily because Pelicans is not as threatening as the other teams. Despite playing outside their home, they can pull this off simply because they will play against a younger line up and without Zion too. Their experiences could definitely add up on their advantage.

Anyway, props to you for being brave to go against the flow. I hope you will win, hmm maybe you are right tho. Maybe now is the right time for Lakers to cut their win streak lol Grin.


I too have a feeling but for Lakers to win, lol...
Though they are on a winning streak but this is a legit team and a good team in the NBA, so we can't question their achievement and its always been my strategy to don't go against the streaking team and tonight I will not go against the Lakers.

anyway, good luck to us whoever wins the game.

To the Pelicans? Maybe not. They could probably not cover the spread but the Lakers will not lose to Pelicans. Maybe in their next two games the streak will be broken. My bet, the Nuggets will break it.

Davis and LeBron are linking up great for Lakers so far and I think the win streak will extend till they face Mavericks on Monday. I still think there might be chance since I am not sure how well will Davis perform when Ex-pelican will be back at the court where he had played 6-7 seasons. It will really be awkward for him. And it's same for Brandon Ingram to face the Lakers as well.

I get it why you have put your money on Pelicans expecting the things will go awry for Lakers but still there are lot of players who are playing quite well for Lakers. I don't think tomorrow's game is a real test for Lakers yet.

There is no way "no nba player missed national tv for load management", they definitely did, unfortunately we do not know which one is actually load management and which one is actual injury because they do not share it with the public. It is not like the old days, I remember when one day Gregg Poppovich literally didn't play Tim Duncan and listed the reason as "Too Old" or something.

Back in those days nobody really cared about why a player didn't play, Spurs was the only one that didn't really played their players a lot of minutes, now everyone does it yet now people lie about it because NBA fines teams that rests players for resting sake whereas teams knows this so they just list the players as injured in general to avoid paying that fine and keep their money.

Today LA Clippers defeated Mavericks at the American Airlines Center. and the game went exciting to me. Kawhi x P. George played very well. unfortunately, Luka Doncic is like playing alone there, I think he needs a partner who has at least the same skills as him  Undecided

I guess Clippers wanted to proved something here, and Kahwi and Paul George did the most damaged and obviously Luca can't match those two superstars. Although Luca is playing high basketball today, Clippers doesn't want to be the victim of Luca Magic and demolished the Mavericks.

Maybe it's time for someone to step up and help Luca in the offense so that the load won't be too much because he can't sustained it.
Leonard always have that mentality, he always wanted to compete seeing him like MJ and Kobe, whenever there's a star they wanted to step up and show that they are willing to take the challenge. Together with George and Williams they are simply doing it right, and offcourse their teammates are also stepping up and do the roles rotating and finding the help that they can provide.

So that load management cannot be done when games are played on national TV?
I thought this is based on what the player feeling with his health in the game, and he needs to rest if needed to protect himself.
You can only do load management if the player is injured, to prevent further injury. That is with the doctors professional consent, not with the players feeling.

What if they are on a back to back games, first game is not televised on national TV, then a player can choose not to play because he is obliged to play the next game tomorrow because its on a national live TV.
I think that is right. They can opt to load manage on games not nationally televised or else they get fined.

Now, this clearly tells me that NBA is just all about the money. lets get real Shocked
NBA is about money. You cannot run that organization without income.

As said doctors will provide like a documentation to explain everything.
But those doctors are still within the NBA jurisdiction so we will go back to nothing.
They are professionals. If they lie, they put their reputation and career at risk.

It's their defense that's lacking in their match against the Clippers. Dallas are good offensively and what kills them is their defense against Leonard and George that made most of the damage.
Clippers are too strong dude for Mavs lol Let see their neighbors against Mavs next month
I don't think that Mavs Offensive is good because they rely too much on Luka. the defense of Clippers players is good.

I think if the player complain about something is sore in him, their physician will look at it and provide action in it. It is not just a players decision but also from the physician and lastly from their management depending on how crucial the game for their team.

Yes, that is what they are saying but not gonna happen.

Physician against the team management? I dont think so. They will just obey with what the management will say.
It will just depend on how it will be informed to the public.

It was the first time I heard when the medical team and a coach have different information and that was the case of Kawhi.
Never heard it before and again we wont hear that.
They will always synchronize even with lies.

Not bad for Mavericks they played well but like what you said. It's not good if only one man scores a lot. LA Clippers is very luck to have Kawhi and PG both have 28 and 26 points respectively. Adding to that is 21 points of Williams. I can say why team clippers is very formidable this season. While only Luca scoring above 20 points. I hope maverick can add some players to help Luka on the court. Anyway to early to have a conclusion, the preseason still long way to go and Mavericks still on top teams. They can still be a contender for finals.
Maybe what you mean is the regular season. yes, I also think mavericks should add more players they can't just rely on Luka, it will be difficult if you meet a team with the same level of ability between players like the Clippers. and next month Mavs will play against Lakers, but before that, the Mavs will play against Suns

They can still be a contender for finals.
Maybe but there chance should be lower compared to the proven top teams in the west like Clippers and Lakers.

Thus far, the good teams that the Mavericks beat are the Nuggets and the Rockets, so maybe  they'll have to improve more as clippers and Lakers are a different team, they have the best players in the NBA like Lebron James and Kawhi Leonard and either one of them can limit Luka if they will defend him one on one.

NBA Claims No Players Have Missed National TV Games This Season Due To Load Management

The NBA claims no player has missed any nationally televised games this season due to load management or rest.

It still depends what NBA management will say on national television. If they think it will just ruin their reputation then it should be  kept.
Same thing with what happened to players like Derrick Rose. I hope you all knew that.

Now back to load management. So a player could just say this is sored and I can rest. That easy. I hope they can provide something else with this cases.

It's hard to verify that, so players can still skip and will not play if he wants to do it, but this normally happens to star players with the permission of the coach I guess, for them, it seems like their playoff chance is more important that giving entertainment to the NBA fans.

I wish they will abolish that load management soon.
