Still Cavaliers. Yes you think they might be the "aged" group but wait till you eat your words. They might be under and not dominating now but wait for it...
Aged team? No, all of them are considered aged. The stay of the team but the team itself has players and those players are the ones that can say if they are aged or not. And when it comes to domination, there are era's for each team, we don't know if Cavs era is done or not yet.

Just ignore that 2 folks. They are just passerby here in this thread and will post "CAVS" "WARRIOS" to increase their post count. Clearly they didn't know the current status of NBA today on which lots of team are doing great performance and we can't really say now who will prevail and the strongest. Unpredictable as it is.
Back to NBA, looks like Jayson Tatum of the Boston Celtics is now the great contender for Ben Simmons of the Sixers to become the Rookie of the Year. Still early to say but to achieved that, they should acquired good stats in early games because that is counted. But I see in terms of point making, Simmons will lead here because we all know that in Sixers, there are only few who are doing most of the shot unlike in Celtics that I think all starters are good at perimeter and rainbow area e.g. Jaylen Brown, Kyrie Irving etc.

What I like about this kind, Jayson Tatum is that he is not as flashy but he is very effective and has a not touch outside. Very lanky and long that's why he can easily blocks shots. Interesting stats: He has 157 points in his first 11 games, the most of any rookie in Celtics since Paul Pierce. Too early too tell but this kid has a bright future ahead of him in the NBA. Ben Simmons will lead in point making, but in terms of impact Tatum is a big help in terms of team contribution.
Jayson Tatum is one of the future of Boston Celtics. For me, don't rush things and don't goal for a Rookie of a Year. Just play harder every game. If the current Celtics squad will not destroy their lineup in the next following season, I see they will be the one of the biggest threat by other teams that wants to bring home the NBA championship ring.
Isn't the injury of Hayward blessing in disguise? Im not saying negative here but I can't see Tatum's playing time will be longer if Hayward is on the floor.
Actually, Jayson Tatum is part of the original starters made by Brad Stevens. If Im not mistaken, all Boston Celtics game since NBA season opened, Jayson Tatum is part of the starting lineup. About playing time, maybe Tatum will not be affected if ever Hayward doesn't experienced that horrible injury. The one who will be affected is one their bench starters but not that much as their playing time are well distributed and I know Stevens will make good out of it.
Boston Celtics: Time to Give Tatum More Responsibility

Warriors still the strongest team this coming 2018, for me it's the perfect team for now because they have the best shooter and also an intelligent coach.
Well the cavs and the warriors dob't look as invincible as they were last season though. Many teams beefed up their lineups and many are quite jelling pretty good. Even in the east, though its still too early to tell, the cavs seems to have lost that invincibility cloak and teams aren't as inferior to them as they were the past 2 seasons

Really disappointed! Today denver was crushed by James Harden . Fear the Beard!
How much did you bet on this game? Fear the bear damn he's really playing that well together with Chris Paul. Their team has an edge to get to the finals. I loved the first scorer that Chris Paul did, if you'll ever watch the reply of the game, look on how he did the fake pass smoothly and gracefully. They've got another Chinese player, so after Yao Ming they go Zhou Qi.when they are dictating the tempo. The Raptors is also a good team but they are outplayed by the Rockets.
Good odds on Brooklyn Nets vs Cleveland, on OneHash x20
But I think it's impossible ...
There is nothing impossible with this game, Brooklyn net beat the Cavaliers at home on their previous game and although the cavaliersBut I think it's impossible ...
are looking for a revenge in this game but you cannot underestimate the improving Nets.
Also, I doubt if that would still be odds when the line closes.
Before I'm underestimating the Brooklyn Nets but it's too early to do that. Cavs is always looking for a win since they have some losses now and I know that they want to get into the top 1 of the Eastern Conference. At the moment they are top 4 and what they have to do is to keep on beating their opponents.
Nets performance right now are very impressive, they totally a good team. Comparing to the Cavaliers, the only problem on the net is the playing strategy of lebron james. If you try to recall the game they just the same numbers of percentages but on the last 4minutes in the 4th quarter only Lebron James scored and assured the team to be win.

so many surprises this night:
Boston against Miami. and interrupted the 16 consecutive victories.
Oklahoma destroyed Golden State 108-91
New Orleans won 107-90 against San Antonio
big victories for Houston and Cleveland (sixth consecutive victory)
Lost all of my bets except for rockets i didn't expect OKC will beat golden state with 17 points deficit a bad game for warriors. Boston against Miami. and interrupted the 16 consecutive victories.

..seeing some DeAndre Jordan trade rumors lately I hope the Minnesota Timberwolves will give an attractive offer without their Big 3 of course.
Yes DeAndre Jordan was now put at the trading rumor list. No teams have been reportedly interested in him but maybe after the rumor we're become closed to reality, we can see lots of teams who will try to get this center. DJ will be a free agent next year and if Clippers will waived his contract, I think the offer now is not that high compare to his early years in these team. With the bad start for the Clippers, they need to make a move by marketing their starters to get a good revamp on their current roster. We see a downtrend in his potential when Paul was being traded. No doubt, Paul can give him lots of open look when they are together but now struggling to find an easy one without forcing the paint.
Let's wait what will happen here.....
DeAndre Jordan trade rumors says that multiple teams are interested on his service, but never seen anyone likely to get him.. He's not getting any younger though and he is not as good without Paul. Clippers need to rebuild their team now and they are really struggling without Paul. It got me thinking though, he verbally agreed to sign with Dallas in 2015 if I'm not mistaken but decided to stay with the Clippers. But today it looks like its gonna happen. I'm sure he will be a good addition to team that lacks defensive presence in the paint, and he still averages double doubles. But its too early to tell, let's see how true is this rumor and what teams are really interested in him.

The Minnesota Timberwolves had a good win today although their double digit lead was cut down to only 6 points at the end you will see that they really need to improve their 4th quarter performance. One thing that they can do is to no play 5 bench players all at once as even though the starters are resting it is ruining the momentum of the lead. They still look good in the Western Comference having only 2 games behind the Golden State Warriors.
Its really a good win after 2 losing skid. Although the 4th quarter woes still bothering them as they almost lost another close one here. Its another balance attack but they need consistency. Taj Gibson has a good night by contributing 24 points.
Its a tough battle in the Western Conference, but if they remain consistent I think they can really hang with the top teams. And I agree with your observation on the 4th quarter performance, that's why I said that its still bothering them as if they are choking in the 4th.

Westbrook was a beast in that game, Damn I can say that he singlehandedly won the game for the Oklahoma City Thunder and I really love how Kevin Durant and Westbrook went forehead to forehead when Westbrook stole the ball away from him.

Didn't able to watch live the recent game between Golden State Warriors vs Oklahoma City Thunders so I just watched the game highlights instead. As I watching, Im really impressed with Thunders performance; Westbrook being a BeastBrook, Paul George during his Pacers days and Carmelo Anthony just like the Denver Nuggets day. What a nice hot hands they have and able to gather 76 points combination for the Thunders.
...But wait.. as I said game highlights so it's more on a view to success field goals attempts and highlights. As I watched the replay of whole game, all I can say is both teams doesn't have an interesting field goal percentage. Lots of attempts made but ended up above average shooting percentage. Even with poor perimeter defense by the Warriors, Thunders didn't make it easy to make a bucket. On the other hand, Warriors never found a rhythm offensively the whole game and failed to compete with the Thunder's performance level.
Overall eventhough the shooting % turned out like that, OKC made a good production and the end defeating Golden State Warriors with a bang!

Honestly the OKC win wasn't a big surprise. They're a good team that needs a little chemistry to become a great team. Last night they showed what they were capable of. OKC Golden State games are always great to watch lol

And their are many underdog teams now are appearing in the playoffs. I would also hope wolves make it because i could see that they have a great line up but i guess the chemistry still developing. Like the okc, there are many role players in the team and since most members dont have a ring, they would tend to do their best individually and slightly reducing team plays.
