Is he acting Leonard 2.0? Lol.

I'm sure though that he really wanted to be traded and if he continues to act this way then the team has no recourse but to get rid of him. Leonard already set the blue print LMAO.

@batang_bitcoin - Yeah I agree, Carmelo needs some adjustment and there's a lot of learning curve on his part. There's a lot of games in the regular season and as a veteran I do hope that he can make the necessary adjustment and at least help Houston Rockets offensively.

Just after you reminded everyone......

Rekkt.

There are still more games to come for him to adjust, not a hater but I hope he'll find his comfort zone.[/list]

Like what Jimmy Butler said he doesn't mix up personal problems with his game. He likes to keep it professional as possible as it is also what will keep his value up, remember he still wanted to be traded even though the season has already begun. Resting and acting hurt would only delay his trade that he has been looking for ever since this pre-season. The only thing I want to happen as a fan is of course change his views with the team and hopefully sign a contract extension with them, but I doubt that it would happen.

Honestly Im not concern on Rockets loss but in terms of "adjustment" , Melo has really issues about that that's why Im concern on his first day performance. Ok well then give him time as always.

I don't know what happened but no awkward moment between Jimmy Butler and Karl Anthony Towns during their first game this season. Although they loss at the hands of San Antonio Spurs, still we can't see the effect of the "issue" between Butler and the team. I just don't know if Butler will still continued his drama about being traded or will remained at Timberwolves for the rest of the season.

Leonard goes rampage at Toronto Raptors win.

DeRozan goes rampage too at San Antonio Spurs win.

Both won the trade as long as no "drama" will happened on the way by either one of them.

I was wrong to doubt Booker. I was thinking he would be playing majorly on shooting guard position and Doncic would have beasted on him because we know Booker doesn't have a good defense but he was hided very well behind players like JJ and Doncic couldn't do anything, we got to give him it was his first NBA game ever but as a player who played on euro-league finals I am pretty sure dude wasn't that much excited about a regular season game, maybe just because it is the first ever.

I really believed Doncic would have beasted Booker but coach managed to hide that weakness. I wasn't expecting Sixers to be bullied that badly neither, I knew Celtics had the better chance now giving the fact that they have Kyrie and Hayward returned but I wouldn't have expected them to win a game when both of them played so badly.

Even though it’s the beginning of the season and there are still a lot of games to be played, I don’t think this heavy defeat is very good for the Houston Rockets thankfully this isn’t the playoffs and they have time to get back to their best.

A suggestion for people who like to quote large paragraphs. Can you please use "~snip~" just like normal people do?

Nobody wants to scroll through pyramid quotes for 5 minutes to reach the last post, right? Just edit the quote to the part you want to reply, there is no need to quote the whole damn thing, nor leave unnecessary text unrelated to your reply.

Feels good man haha I'll take that $20.


Nope, please don't listen to me lol. My boy Ryan Anderson with just 4 points on the night (well had the second highest +/- in the game, so it's alright). Booker went off in the 4th to close the game. I guess his shooting hand is just fine after that injury.

---

Indeed it's just one game, but I still wonder who's gonna play defense this year. Melo obviously won't worry much about that. 

Anyway, it was kinda of a weird game though. I'm not sure what was more shocking, to see Melo come off the bench for the first time in his career, Mirotic going off for 30 pts with contested deep 3s like Curry and post fades like Dirk or Elfrid Payton's new haircut.  haha

It's just one game, I am sure they will make adjustment and Melo will eventually fit in the long run.
The Rockets is still a Championship team, if Melo will blend perfectly then it will be hard for them to beat, maybe he will be in the starting line up.

That's always been the issue with melo. It's hard to find a team where he actually can fit perfectly. With pg and russ back in okc, one would think they can seriously contend for a deeper playoff appearance. I'm not really sure if the rockets will benefit from this acquisition.

Oh I see. That's why you are here. Hope you can get those "old" customers back and attract new ones. Im willing to diversify some amounts now at your site as I want to check that "improvements".

Awesome, Ayton had made 6 asssist as a Center/PF alongside with his Double-Double performance. As usual, Suns usual cagers did some great production and look what.. Trevor Ariza's presence does really give a great boost on Suns offense. Still no doubt one of the good best role players nowadays in the league.

---

What happened to Houston Rockets?

Carmelo Anthony looks like not comfortable for a bench role. Still finding the right blend or really can considered as inconsistent player right now?

@xLays That would be cool, it's something I can look into doing once our latest Super 6 Soccer predictor competition has finished!

Since I'm the one organising these competitions I tend to stick to soccer where my knowledge is good enough to discuss the matches in depth with players, but I'm working with the sportsbook teams to bring my NBA knowledge up to speed 

@harizen To be honest it's the first time our lines and offers have been good enough to come in here to discuss with all you hardcore NBA fans! Our Sportsbook team made a massive effort to update our NBA offerings over the summer, not just with the odds and margins but the huge amount of player props we now offer on most games. I'm hoping we can start tempting some of the more savvy NBA bettors to check out our service now!

Ronnie @ Cloudbet

I can agree to that, watching them play as a team and still in a system guided by coach Pop, this team still have something that can be competitive against super teams, hopefully they will fully developed the chemistry and the team effort will always work for them, congrats for this game opener surely the fans like me enjoyed the game.

Good job by the Spurs by winning the NBA home opener, the game was intense but in the end it was the spurs which were victorious.
Demar DeRozan played well and I think he fits very well to the line up, he attack the paint and that makes them dangerous now because they have big like LA and Gasul who can shot as well.

First half is about to end.

Doncic has two fouls already,these two young superstars are really being tuned in by basketball fans.

2 mins left and score is in favor of Suns.

Edit: Great win for Suns

Nice, i am also fun of nitrogensports.eu which this is the first and i think the last site i used to do gambling (sportsbetting) i am satisfied with their services that is why i do not used any other site because i feel they are only the same.
Thanks also for the betting tips and I won for boston! i will follow you mate

I guess I'll go with you on this. Ayton probably make the night long for the Mavs but if Mavs decide to do double team, it would be Anderson to take the offensive end. With the current rooster of the sun's it is obvious that they are the underdog, but as what you said it is safe to bet on them in their first few games this season.

Most predictions and reviews point to a Mavs win. They clearly have better players and roster (do they?), on the other hand, Suns have an inexperienced head coach, Booker coming off a hand injury, no real point guard etc.

Despite all that I'm opening this season with a $20 bet on the Suns @ 2.00 Reasons why:

• home court advantage
• it's probably safe to bet on the Suns in the first 10-15 games, they don't know it's going to be yet another tanking season lol
• Ayton is a monster
• Ryan Anderson could have a high-scoring game if Mavs decide to double Ayton in the low post

Definitely Mavericks. Suns are doing well with the improvement of their squad with the addition of Aayton and Ariza however Dallas creates a bad mismatch for suns. They have DSJ on point guard spot whereas suns have no one in point guard and may have to put booker in point guard and put JJ on shooting guard because they have no PG to play. Whereas Dallas will have Dominic at sg and probably Wesley and Barnes on sf and pf and Deandre Jordan at C as well.

Now I am not saying Dallas is a great team because we definitely know they are not however they can literally outclass suns in almost every position. Without Deandre Jordan suns would have had a chance but right now with him Dallas definitely overpowered them.

First time to see Cloudbet visit the NBA thread lol or I just missed your previous post here. IIRC , Michelle from Direct*** and some guy from Nit***** did some numerous post here in the past for promotions and promos. Cloudbet is my first crypto sportsbook that I used due to 100% deposit bonus. Just refrain using your site due to some complaints by others in the past (but I guess now solved) so decided to switch into no account system.

Glad to see that you are now competing with the best odds. I used to compare your odds back then to Direct*** and Nit***** and ended up not the best one plus the betting options are lacking. Looking forward for your improvements.


Doncic is already a talk of the town even prior to entering the NBA draft. His great performance in EuroLeague days makes him one of the expected rookies this season that will blow up the storm.

On the other hand, big man Ayton shows a good performance during their pre-season games. His pre-season stats is somehow considered as not on rookie level anymore although we aren't sure if that stats will improved more this season. Phoenix did a good job for drafting this guy and hope that they can give a more playing time on him.

Im not a biased here but Im a fan of Dallas Mavericks so I will pick Mavs over Suns.

I'm waiting to Cloudbet to run a promotion like they doing to Prediction Football League. Like this:  ⚽🏆 Cloudbet's Super 6 Soccer Predictor Competition - Free Entry - Win BTC! 🏆⚽ . I remember DirectDice also doing it before.
