What I saw tonight was the improved Portland TrailBlazers , they beat the Bucks with a good margin, CJ McCollum explode with 40 points on that win.
They will surely get into the playoffs easily but the only problem they have since the past is that they are having a difficulty entering in the West Finals, this team is just first round team.
Portland and Wizards are basically the same team at this point. They both have a great point guard and shooting guard combo, they both try their best with their bigs and they both try to draft well or sign well on free agency and just cut ties with anyone who wants more money.

Honestly, I find them west and east versions of each other. However this can't continue like that forever, they really need to blow it up and try again, I know tanking is not liked by many people but neither wizards nor blazers is going anywhere with these teams, if they could trade people like wall/beal or dame/cj and get picks instead with some soon ending contracts with it, they can both get rid of the contract quickly and have picks to restart all of this. Otherwise they will be stuck with mediocre play forever.

Rockets was playing so bad that they literally made their retired coach come back from retirement to fix their defensive issues. Honestly I can not believe one team can be good enough to beat one of the all time best teams and next year suck so badly. I keep on saying there must be something but I really don't know if it is just coaching difference anymore.

Mavericks have been losing a lot but with Luka and DSJ and Barnes with Wesley, they really do look like they might have a future in the league. Celtics plays like Celtics as always, Brad Stevens really knows how to take advantage of each players skills and bring out the most in them, the only coach like that was Greg Popovich and we know how amazing he is, I hope Brad Stevens coaches Celtics for the next 20+ years like Pop did to spurs.

Is Harden back?
Sorry I am not much updated with the Houston team. Maybe I will watch some replay later.

One thing is for sure. They traded one of their good defender. Ariza. That guy is so long that it could defend 2 guys at the same time. Grin Steals. Ariza is good with that, plus he also have the stamina to keep up and defend star players which are at the off guard position. He have the upper hand as always for his long arms.
He didnt need to score. Just keep up with the offensive play.

Edit: okay so Harden is back. But that is a good game against Indiana.

This coming 2019 i think Golden state warrior take the trophy's again. Because we all know that golden state warrior are best team in the past years.

Doesn't mean that they are the best, they will be taking the trophy or the championship that easily since there are a lot of great teams in the NBA that you might now know.

GSW is a great team since we all know how they do their plays as Steve Kerr led them to do. From the plays of the team to make Stephen Curry always open to shot three is really great, how great? Well just look at this video exposing this.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvEJquL1gkg

GSW has a strong line up but other teams do too. Like Denver, theres also Portland, Toronto, Milwaukee and Indiana, these teams are also great. They might not have a great winning streak as GSW do but the conference is just starting and there are still a lot of things that may happen. Their performance last year is not important, this season's are..

I didnt expect that it will happen thay McCollum will explode with this game. I thought the Bucks will win on this but not. This shows thay the Blazers are better now with their current roster.

But this team is on the West and it means more pressure because more better player are on the West. I think they will clinch the playoffs and will win the first round and probably second round. They are different now compare to last season. Their team is a balanced team for me.

It's because they don't have a legitimate superstars who could carry the team consistently. Also, because the lack of maturity in decision making on and off the court. Give them a veteran superstar and a seasoned coach then you will see a different trailblazers playing on the court.

Its because the melted under the pressure specially play-offs. They are a good team in papers, but as soon as they enter play-off rounds, its seems that they choke as a team and can't really past the first or second round.

That was because of Carmelo Anthony's curse..... lol kidding.

Anyways Rockets is now on 3rd winning streak after their 4th losing streak which is unusual. We are still on the early phase of the season and who knows that they will soon kicked up in the standings.

Mavericks have been losing a lot but with Luka and DSJ and Barnes with Wesley, they really do look like they might have a future in the league.

Sad to see that. They need some additional backup from the bench, not for getting new players but some adjustments. They are lacked of it.

Raptors are 9-1 for the season, this game without Leonard and they showed up tonight, great start for them going up in the first quarter 42-17. LA still has to find that chemistry that they need, Kuzma had a nice game again, I think next year we will see an all-star teaming up with Lebron in LA after the Warriors win again this year.

Yeah Kuzma. Really love that kid. I see a great  player within him. Been a fan of him since his rookie year.

Raptors though. Ergh! Too stroong even with Kawaii nor playing the game.
Lowry and the bench had some good hot hands and the lead wont even go below 20 until the last minutes of the 3rd.
They  keep on doing this until playoffs and they might be the one getting that crown in the East. Doesnt need to rely much on Kawaii.

Well if you can remember though, the raptors have always been this good through the regular season even back when demar is at the helm. And i think they'll continue this kind of play until the playoffs, where we'll really see what kawhi brings that's different from derozan.

It is really the playoffs where they got shaken.
I think that is when Kawaii will really shine again.
He had been in many Finals and also an MVP. He will not just be shaken up by those kind of moment, experience wise.

Their 3rd stringer though must be enhanced. They are the ones who gave up the big lead and forcing Lowry to go back to the game at 4th quarter.

Lebron is just not good enough to make a team win. Not a good leader, and etc. And mind you, he will not to be blame but the coach.

Lakers win = They have chemisty

Lakers lose = They doesn't have chemistry

That's how people generalizing it in every win and every loss even on social media discussions. A big LOL isn't it?

A lost is a lost and no reason for that on that recent game. Raptors played well and that's it. People don't just have to look at Lakers performance but also on how their opponent showed. Even Serge Ibaka's big points as career high never noticed lol. That's how big deal Lakers today compare to their opponents as they are on talk of the town even they are lose which is not really making sense to me.
Because this team has Lebron and some NBA fans only know Lebron and some star players, they do not really bother on checking the team stats, they love
hype in short that is why they can easily get fooled when they gamble. Lebron is in the stage of adjustment, although he lead this team but it's too early to build that chemistry, and he is not as clutch as we think.

Another loss for Lakers, they are not doing well at all during defensive part of the game at all. They are trying to play a fast paced really quick offensive game but without a good defense that fast pace just ends up with an ISO at the hands of Lebron James. They really need to build a defensive scheme to prevent this much points allowed so their offense would mean something.

On the other hand, Bucks are going strong after their first loss and Giannis looks like a beast, I can't believe this monster found a way to improve himself every single year he played but he still looks improved yet once again. Their team is destined for a great playoff run this year and Bud is coaching them amazingly. Any team that sees bucks and sees their team should definitely try to think what could happen if they changed their coach. Billy Donovan specially could be replaced with a bucket of ice and OKC would still improve.

Kuzma will be an all star player in the future. I see this because he is getting better and better every game. I think what lacks on the Lakers now is the chemistry and the experience since most of them are young players.

The Raptors roster didn't change that much. They just traded DeRozan and 2 bench for Leonard and Green. The Raptors are known for having a good roster and a good bench that is why they defeated Lakers even without Leonard.
