I can't believe that Brooklyn could actually beat this powerhouse. Lakers with AD and LeBron is something that you could see powering on other teams yet they were beaten by a team without their real power(kyrie and durant). Damn, yet this is still preseason most teams are more likely to let other players play out the game rather than using their star or risking them on an injury. Even if it's just a preseason game, players could get injured.

Don't look at the final score.

Lakers already sat down LBJ and AD and their other starters in the third quarter and never returned again on the game. The score isn't that gap when they left. What more if they push it but not necessary.

Unfortunate for Irving though. I hope he's fine.

Lakers 111-114 Nets ! what do you think about the games guys? LeBron and Spencer scored the highest point among the other players with 20 points in this match. This is the highlights of the Lakers vs Nets match for those of you who missed and can't watch the game live https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kNiQtUVjn0c

I would be more amazed if they beat the Lakers in a regular season. With the limited minutes of LeBron and AD, it would not he the Lakers team that we want to see. Yes they can't risk their star players for just a pre-season game that's why we can only see much action from their bench players.

We are overreacting, this is just a preseason which weak teams gets better and good teams getting weaker.
This isn't a regular season where the real business starts for them, so just enjoy the game and never too confident with your bet as its hard to cap in this kind of season in the NBA, don't worry this will end soon and we shall witness the real action.

Lost my bet on that game, i thought that AD and LBJ will show their strength even if that is just a pre-season game. Taking cautionary measures like limiting the playing time of star players in pre-season game deprive the fans of what they want to see but we also can't blame the coaching staff as we have seen lot of instances where players getting injured on exhibition games.

.. Now that he can shoot threes already, he will be more scary in the court because of his abilities.

Don't take that Simmon's 3' as a scary one "for now" lol.

It's just one 3 and was made for fun. They are in lead about 30+ points and just wasting time before the halftime so fans are requesting, even his teammates, for him to make a 3 point attempt and he did.

Well, I hope that successful 3' will give him more confidence to throw buckets at the rainbow area.



Clippers is not as good as people make them out to be, they still have a glaring problem under the basket and any team that have a good center could feast on Clippers. Think about Sixers and embiid+simmons playing with their size inside, they could destroy Harrel and whoever they decide to play on PF position. Kawhi can't play PF for too long, I am pretty sure PG+Kawhi will be SG-SF instead of SF-PF so there will need to be some people who Guard other teams PF as well and if its tall than its a problem, if Lakers come up with lets say Howard+Davis at bigs, who could guard them?

Clippers is an amazing team and they are definitely one of the biggest contenders of the season but lets not act like they are as good as Warriors few years ago when they basically swept the whole playoffs.

In today's NBA, height doesn't really matter for now and can't be taken as one of the team's disadvantage whether on both offense and defense.

Why Clippers should focus on something they are lacking rather than takes advantage of what they have. In terms of offense, they can limit their inside plays and focus instead on the outside shooting which is way more effective since there are lots of sharpshooters on the team. In terms of defense, they can do backup defense or something along those lines. These guys know how to play defense against any position.

Not a Clippers fan but surely they can cover up their holes.

The odds of 76ers winning the championship increases with this but Simmons must remain a good three point shooter all throughout the whole season.

They have a chance as they are in the East, just like the Raptors which has a great journey to be in the Finals and successfully win in the NBA finals.
It's only the Sixers which the Raptors struggles but that lucky bounce of Leonard changes everything, no Leonard in the east now, and The Greek Freak is very predictable,  so I think they have a chance.

But it is not just the 76ers which are doing upgrades. Or let us say just Ben Simmons.
The Greek Freak may have been also thinking of another way to make himself unstoppable everywhere on the floor.

Yes we have seen some difference now with the 76ers but there are still chances to lose if they meet the Bucks in the playoffs.
Middleton is one of the players they should be looking at also. That is one hell of a clutch dude.

Ben Simmons hitting a three literally overshadowed all the Chinese situation going on, that is still a debate and there is still things going on there.

Hong Kong people are still fighting for their life and people are protesting on the streets every single day and want their freedom back from the mainland, whereas China is soo dictatorial about it that they are banning ALL NBA related stuff just because one GM tweeted one thing, now think about this for a second, if these guys are banning all NBA related stuff just for one tweet, try to understand how Chinese people live themselves, there is literally not a single person who is allowed to criticize the government there, you and your family all will be killed.

Let's not forget that they are harvesting organs from living people of ethnoreligious minorities. Lets hope NBA stands with Darly on this one and they will not back down no matter how much money they will lose.
What? This is the first time I heard about that China is banning NBA related stuff on their country. Can you tell more about what this GM tweeted? This could be an interesting topic.
Here is what was said about the deleted tweet by the houston general manager

and the aftermath

I believe it was a bluff by china because they televised it anyways. While I was watching the lakers game all this was mentioned and was said they were broadcasting the rockets against the raptors game which already had an earlier start time then the la game.
I say it was bluff because knowing they would lose millions by not allowing media to show it since they were probably paid alot and were under contract to broadcast it or face fines by the nba. And you know money means more to china than human decency and morals. Roll Eyes

Bucks will improved this year and now that Leonard is out of the Raptors line up, I'm sure that their chances to go the ECF increases and with Giannis continuing to evolved as well I will not be surprised if they can also improved their winning records.

That hard breaking lost against the Raptors will also make Sixers a better team and could be the possible second seed to come out of the East, gonna be interesting for the next spot though, there could be some surprises for the 3rd to 8th spot.

They just have to hope that they will not face Leonard in the NBA finals as either of this team might still struggle against the Clippers.
If the Raptors has become a good team with Leonard, this Clippers team now is in different level as it has become a super team with PG as his co star.



Any team in western conference would kill easterners in the NBA finals. With Durant out for Brooklyn, I cant  think of any better team in the east that could evenly match the powerhouse teams in the west, base on the previous off-season performances. But, of course my views and opinions will change in the mid season, If there are improvements from both individuals and team.

Also, let's not forget about Lou Williams which for me is better than Lowrie, yeah, this guy is underrated and he will show up more so he will have a chance to renew with a better contract with the Clippers.

LOL, it should be scary if they will face Leonard as both of these 2 teams loses against the Raptors which is a weaker team compared to the team he is playing with now. If that's the case, let's already assume that Leonard will again win the Finals MVP and he will win 3 championships in 3 different team.

Well, they need to prove that this coming NBA season, they are still a good team although Butler was already out in the team.
Their biggest rival in the East is the Bucks, they may look very predictable last season but I don't think they will still do the same mistake if they will reach in the NBA East finals. Most likely it's gonna be Bucks or Sixers which will occupy the number 1 and 2 spot.

Agreed. There are many casuals lurking here. Simmons alone becoming a three pointer is not an easy task to talk about. If only becoming three point shooter can be done in a single summer then we will have a nearly perfect player in Russell Westbrook.

Bucks will top the East. Philly is a strong second contender in the East.  It is interesting if ever KD becomes 100% and can play in the playoffs. The Celtics are still there too and we will see if their young stars can play better without Irving.

I can't think of other teams in the East that will become a championship contender except these two teams that were mentioned.
Even the Raptors which is the depending champ, I think it will be hard for them to enter in the playoffs, since they are now a soft team without Leonard.
Nets without Durant is also weak, Kyrie can't carry a team like what we've witnessed on his contribution to the celtics.

Everything still an assumptions but we need to wait for the season to start before we can conclude if they will place to that position respectively.
In the other side, watching how Raptors played and defeated Houston is interesting, they still have that confidence even without Kawhai they are'playing
with big heart and dedication to compete. Still have the heart of the champs and still the same group playing the system as it is, team effort works well.

If you really watch how the 76ers play in the past seasons then you must know how Simmons plays in the court.

@Bttzed03 forgot to put the word sarcasm in his post that is why he posted this Cheesy. Now that he can shoot threes already, he will be more scary in the court because of his abilities. A 6'10" PG that is a good passer, a good ball handler and now can shoot threes. Now he can compete with other all star players already because he is like a complete package of a good all star. The odds of 76ers winning the championship increases with this but Simmons must remain a good three point shooter all throughout the whole season.



Just because he shot one three pointer makes him deadly? He still needs to practice more to include three pointers in his arsenal. I mean, Simmons is a top caliber player in the league right now but he needs to practice more skills to comply with what is expected him to perform specially shooting beyond the arc.
