As everyone knows Kawhi Leonard is one of those players which are important for their franchise teams whose contracts are ending after the season is over. Lakers and Lebron are looking for more of these players to join the team.
And with news today has Kawhi buying a home in Southern California.
https://dailyhive.com/toronto/raptors-kawhi-leonard-california-house
It is about two and half hours away from the Staples center but still. It is a possibility he might be picked up by LA on the offseason.
That would be great, Lebron and Leonard playing together make them a tough team to beat.
Unfortunately, these are just rumors, there is no certain information that would link to a close possibility about signing with Lakers.

Damn, after Paul George and Gordon Hayward injuries now major injury again happened in Pacers roster Victor Oladipo: https://www.facebook.com/kamotegamingph/videos/1985114361544446/
I didn't watch the whole video you shared, I hate seeing that kind of serious injury, it could be a career ending but I hope he will recover like George and Hayward. Today, we have an advance medication so I guess he will be alright, but I still cannot watch it,  Cry Cry Cry Cry

NBA is not entertaining with these kind of injuries but it's a physical game so we can never discount the possibility. 
That accident thing happen with Oladipo will change the path of his career, lets pray that same thing will happen to him as we seen how george and hayward recovers with serious injuries and still playing same alike with their prime, Oladipo is one of those players who brings momentum to his team
when he played well his team mates plays the same level, a big lost for indiana, prayers for this young star.

Right, the sad is that he injured right at the peak of his career. I'm not saying its a career ending injury, but I'm sure it will have a drastic effect on him psychologically. As someone mentioned, advancement has been made in sports science so that's a advantage for him.

It's really a big lost for Indiana as he is their franchise player, so they need to adjust and someone needs to step up to cover his absence.

Me too, I haven't seen both George and Hayward's fall, I don't know I got chills or something. I play basketball maybe that's why I hate to see players got injured like that. Well, besides the two, DRose already proved that anyone can get over those so called career injuries and still go and play at high level basketball. So we hope that Vic can get back next season and wish him the best.

I was really hurt about this.
I am a pure Oladipo fan. Darn it. It was his steps trying to stop Siakam. He lost control of his legs and made a bad landing with his knee.
I really hate to see that kind of event.

Since they are one of the best defensive team, it could also affect the bets since Oladipo is one of their stars. I guess we could also use this to our advantage.
The odds will surely change.

They still won the game and the odds didnt change that much since I bet on them in live betting while they were still up over 10 points late in the third quarter.
I'm glad they still managed to pull out the win with the injury to their star player Oladipo. Since the raptors made me lose their last game.
I didnt watch last night game but if the injury was as bad as everybody says it was then I glad I didnt see it when it happened.
I hate seeing these type of serious injuries because they can be career ending at times.

With Russell Westbrook dominating the game and Lillard. Where he told him "He has been busting that ass for years!".
Which was hilarious to watch cause you can clearly see what he said without hearing him(no mics close by) and the look on Lillards face is priceless at the free throw line. Grin

They really have a "word war" since 2011 if Im not mistaken. Westbrook never won on the Portland Trail Blazers arena (Moda) since that year and just broke the curse in their meetup last January 4 (or 5? Im not sure).

Oladipo on his injury: "I just slipped and knew it was serious"

It's a season ending injury I guess and kind of "why??". Pacers is in good track this season sitting on a 32-15 WinLoss record and now this happened.
Westbrook and team are up against the pelicans tonight and the bookies have them for a definite win.
New Orleans played so bad last night against the pistons so I can see why they have them at near level odds for nothing to gain from betting on the thunder.

Just hoping he will be the same Victor Oladipo when come back. Undergoing surgery especially in lower area reduces player performance except with a dedication*.

Does somebody laugh out loud after Curry's slip and 3 point miss? For sure he will be a candidate for Shaqtin a Fool Grin.
Hahaha. That is a rare situation where an all star player will be on a Shaqtin a Fool because of 2 fail plays. I can't stop myself from laughing when I watched the video Cheesy.

Anyway, its expected that the Warriors will dominate on the road because the Lakers doesn't have some of their players like LBJ Rondo and Ball. Now that they are gone for the meantime, Kuzma, Ingram, Hart must step up right now. Zubac is stepping up already and they give him more minutes at this moment. He can help in defending inside the paint if he continues how he is playing right now.


It's not unusual at all. James harden and lbj have been consistently gracing shaqtin. Even steph has his own clips there as well. And the lakers would likely not get past the second round even with bron. They're strong on paper when complete but it'll take time before they become real contenders.

People always undermine the playoff Lebron. Dude finished the league like at 4th or something seed last year and still made it to finals. Between, they didn't went to finals that easily, he had a team of nobodies in his team and no one else helped him out at all and look at Clevland right now without Lebron. That is the best way to check the teams and compare them.

Last year Lakers finished the league with 35-47 which is a bad record but not as bad as Clevland who is at 9-40 right now, that means if only they go 26-7 from now on (impossible) they will be better than last years Lakers. It means Lebron took a Clevland team that is probably like 15-67 or whatever and took them to finals, and here we have a Lakers that added Lebron, Rondo, Lance, Mcgee, Tyson, and god knows who else I am forgetting and still keeping the young core and you can see why Lebron could take this team really further then anyone can imagine. Lebron on playoffs is different then anything else you can see.

Surely they would dominate the Lakers, without a legitimate pointguard they certainly lose at a powerhouse team. Also the odds of betting is too high, starting at a +10 for the Lakers means everybody expect the warriors to win the game.

TBH, without LBJ and Rondo, Lakers are really struggling, now that Ball is also out too. Kuzma and Ingram are still young to carry this team though, kodus, to their efforts as they stood out to be the leaders of the team. On the other side, Klay did relatively do most of the damage in this game, shooting first 10 attempts beyond the arc with 10-11 3PFG%, he's literally on fire. What more could they do if Curry did the same (though he has an off shooting 3-12FG, 2-10 in 3pt line) but still he'd able to dish out 12 ast in this game plus a ticket to Shaqtin.

That's what happens to every NBA team when it losses 2 players from their main squad. Same results will happen to GSW if they lose Duncan and Curry from injury, or if Buck loses Antetokounmpo. The teams are built and carried from the stars as they take the majority of opportunities to score and leads the team in hard times during the game.

Yeah, let's wait for the Shaqtin a fool.  Grin

Klay was on fire that night, if Kerr didn't replaced him he could have made more three's and break another record. But it's a good move to rest the first five and let his bench warmers play since they have taken the lead anyways.

As for the Lakers, they will keep on struggling without their leader and I don't see Kuzma or Ingram can carry the team at this point. They are now at the 9th spot and unless Bron comes back, its going to be a struggle just to keep them on the 8th spot for now.
All they need is just to reach the playoffs, with Lebron in the team, this young star will again play great.
They do not have their leader now but they've been showing good basketball despite Lebron's answer, so I'm sure once Lebron is back, they will be in the  playoff spots again.

You can see a highlight of the dunk in the video below which proves at 30 years he can still contend with the 20 something year olds and he still has the spirit to make a run in the playoffs.

I had them to win last night and made my parlay a nice one! Wink
Just wish I had put the btc I lost to the raptors single bet on them instead. Cry

Here's another story highlights that I will follow while February 7 trade deadline approaches...

After playing 10 games with the Houston Rockets, Carmelo Anthony is now released from the Houston Rockets. He is traded to the Chicago Bulls but we can't expect him to play for the team. Bulls likely to used him for another trade or Melo can stay on this team if he wants.

Anyways, we can just expect a clear and good information about what will happen once trade deadline comes.

Apparently Memphis is looking to send Conley and Gasol away now. Not for nothing but they are willing to start tanking, they feel like it is time. First of all this team is by far the best team defensively in the league, even this season after all the grit and grind years you would expect them to start dropping but they are literally at 100 ppg scored on them on a league where average is over 110 ppg scored so they are 10+ ppg better on defense then any other team.

Why they would want to start over I have no idea. We know they are not going to win a championship anytime soon but why not keep on going with the vets you have and improve the young people on your team and just hope that you make profit instead of starting all over again with Sixers style and hope that it will work out for you, its a risk vs something known and I will always go with the known one instead of taking a risk.

I havent read much about this Conley and Gasol being released and I hope not. Conley had been great ever since and still have the touch once heated up.

About the release though, it could be any reason but I do think it is not just about their great again.
The other side could be the profits of the venue. They might pull some stars to get that back, like one of the all star players just so they could make some money once again.

I do always think about that and that is one reason we should start to consider.
