Don't forget about Sixers who also doing some good winning streak and the defending Champ which also trying to still holding to their position
even Leonard already left them. It's a good way to see that all those teams are working and trying to comes up with playoffs caliber performances,
they are all competitive and working for every opportunities that they can get while the first round still ongoing.

Still, I didn't see Sixers going to the finals and winning a title this season. Maybe a conference final but an NBA Finals? It will not happen this season.



That's your opinion but they have players that are capable on winning in the playoffs.

I like the starters of the sixers especially the following, Ben Simmons, Tobias Harris, Joel Embiid, and Al Horford because these are proven legit players whom you can count on them to help their team to win.

IMO, these players are an all star caliber players and I know they will perform more in the playoffs.

Of course we are seeing what the defending champ has been doing, there were in a winning streak but then they suffered a losing streak and just today they won and break the 3 losing streak. With Gasol, Ibaka being defensive players in the NBA, they'll help the team win, and also they have VanVleet who is getting better and better, and hopefully he will be back soon.

NBA Power Rankings: Lakers, Bucks battle for top spot; Jimmy Butler leads rising Heat; Celtics getting healthy

Just about a quarter of the way into the 2019-20 NBA season, and the Los Angeles Lakers and Milwaukee Bucks appear to be a step ahead of the competition. Behind the stellar individual play of Giannis Antetokounmpo, LeBron James and Anthony Davis, those two teams are the class of the league right now by pretty much every metric. But that doesn't mean it will stay that way.

https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/nba-power-rankings-lakers-bucks-battle-for-top-spot-jimmy-butler-leads-rising-heat-celtics-getting-healthy

The best team in the NBA will be determined on December 19 (20 in the Phil) if both Lakers and Bucks stays undefeated here after.
I also noticed the Heat are unnoticeably slowly becoming a strong team in the East. Butler is a good fit in Miami. While Brown, Tatum, and Hayward doing a good job showing nothing really changed in Boston since Kyrie left.

Anyway, I hope I'm wrong, but I think this is gonna be an easy path for the Bucks in the East towards the NBA Finals.

So long as the Lakers want more recognition than being able to win a championship, I think they will be on top of the power rankings. But if they will let some games slide through and let their key players relax since the season is just a quarter through then the Bucks will take the lead.

It is way low for a weak Orlando Magic.
Bucks are really hot by now and this is not one of the team which they want to lose.

Might be another reason is Orlando Magic was 5/6 in their last games? Hmm, I think odds providers shouldn't consider that even Magic is on momentum. They are massacred (lol) to Bucks on their first meeting playing at their own home arena so what's more to expect later.

Anyways, don't know what's the catch but honestly even for a much weaker team like Golden State Warriors, I have never seen yet an over +15 for them against any teams, dominant or not, or maybe I just missed those. Correct me if I'm wrong here.

December 2. +17 for the Knicks against the Bucks.
That is all I remember now since they are -9 against the Pistons last week.

It is rare for them to happen. I guess when they are just against a non-rested team or if they are the away team.
But now, it is their homecourt and they are rested.

Damn it. Orlando won with their +12.5. Ergh!!!!
Bucks 110 - 101 Magic

Who watched the game? Is it because of garbage time?

The reason why it's so low is because orlando plays at such a slow pace that there are a lot less possessions per game per team.  Same like/type team and the spread would be 15+.  Either way bucks will control pace on this one and I like my chances.  Bucks at home against a weak shooting team...I like it.

First half is over, the score is 52-40, bucks leading by 12 points.

They only need to win 1 point in the 2nd half to cover the spread, nothing's change, Bucks are still hot right now and we can expect another double digit lead in the 2nd half.

They can't stop Giannis then this game is another win by the Bucks.
It's almost sure that Giannis will tally a double double in this game but it he could make it a triple double if he will make 5 assist in the 2nd half.
But for me, he doesn't need to do stat padding as we all know he is already showing his real skills and MVP skills and that's the reason for this long winning streak.

Bucks are that good.  Tonight at home -12.5 against orlando is a steal.  I could see a 120-95 game happening.  They tore apart the clippers, I'd say the bucks are the team to beat this year.  They are dominating every game they play.  Giannis is playing like he is on a mission.  If this team stays together I can see a golden state type 5 year run with them destroying everyone

Based on its past trends, this looks like an easy one, but the question, why the line is only -12.5, it's support to be -15 or more, I feel there's something wrong with this line, it could be trap before we know it. I'm staying away on this particular match up, I'll be betting on the Raptors who badly needs to break their losing streak.

The predicting score is  119.5 vs 97. But I doubt that is enough.
It might go to a 20 point lead and the rest of the score will just be because of the garbage time that could make the lead lower.

I will pass at this one too. There is not much profit betting for Bucks. I would have gone betting against them for +15 also.

The last 3 games and Deandre Ayton will be returning to the Phoenix Suns starting 5.

Do you think if Ayton back into the line-up can the Phoenix Suns beat the LA Lakers and this top Power Ranking Team? We all know that Phoenix Suns beat the healthy LA Clippers with Deandre Ayton.

Do you think Phoenix can beat the Lakers in their A-game? Even with Ayton added at the starting line-up, I doubt they can defeat the current LA Lakers with a healthy LeBron and Davis looking to win this seasons championship.

Really tough to decide between Bucks and Clippers Moneyline so if you are confused, I suggest staying away to this game and just considered other matches unless you are a diehard fan of either team and you trust your instinct.

Bucks won the first time they met with the Clippers on the road this season but that is without PG and Kawhi.

Both LAC superstars are expected to play on today's game, increasing the offensive power of the LAC and chances to win but playing at the Bucks home, I'm sure Giannis will go all-out. Not just him but the whole Bucks team. I don't think any of the advantages here by the Clippers just because PG and Kawhi will be there but rather I see this game will be equal and no advantages to both team.

Let's see.

My money is on the bucks.  The bucks at home at 3.5 sold.  I know kawhi and pg are playing but I just dont think people have seen Milwaukee play.  They arent beating people, they are annihilating them.  Most times it's not even a question from the first quarter who is going to win.  Loot is on milwahki and the over.  135-123 mil wins
Calm down, man. you can see in Q1 clippers total point is lagging far enough with Bucks. but look at Q2 the Clipper is starting to rise. we'll see the game after this halftime.
I have been made a bet handicap including overtime +9.5 for Clippers lol

Davis playing so awesome is not due to just him being super talented, of course he is one of the most talented players in the whole league and a great superstar but remember back when he was in Pelicans they were not capable of doing anything and as soon as he came to Lakers he became 2x of himself.

He loves playing with Lebron and he graduated from Lebron academy when he was a kid and he always tweeted at Lebron when he was young so basically this dude grew up watching and loving Lebron so when they get together it creates this amazing chemistry where AD actually plays with 100% of his powers instead of the way he used to play with Pelicans where he looked bored and sometimes even give up. Lakers are something like 21-3 now, they literally have a shot at breaking the record but even if they don't, they are easily the favorites to win the title if nobody gets injured.

That's why they are really after with the Davis as they know he can make a difference.
I haven't seen Lebron made a mistake in choosing a superstar teammate/s, when he joined Wade/bosh and Irving/love, both two teams really did well and in fact both teams have won a championship under his leadership.

In short, we can call Lebron as a good leader and that makes his teammates very confident because they trust each other.

He have shown us how great he was for the first time when he carried the 2007 Cavaliers into the NBA Finals, though the Spurs were too much for them. And up until today he have shown us how great he is as a leader.
I can still remember his statement before the pre season started, that he is willing to pass the spot light to AD if he wants to, and right now we're seeing what LeBron have said.

So far so good for the Lakers, specially they are able to cover most of the spread. I am hoping they will remain healthy till the season ends.
