Jokic missed a free throw… Now they’ll be fouling and seeing who can shoot better at the line for the win.

Clippers win…

That’s now two straight losses for the Nuggets. What’s going on with this team? Maybe it’s time to stop backing them for a bit while they figure out how to get back to winning form. Could Westbrook be their lucky charm, lol?
2 straight loss is a small size compared to how many games we will have on the regular season. We know that we've seen teams where they struggled on the first half of the season then played like an all-star team on the second half.

Westbrook as their lucky charm? Even other teams don't have respect with him if he's on the three-point line, and that's because they know that he's that awful when shooting behind the line. In their first game against the Thunder, dud shot 2/10 and 1/6 from three-point area. Westbrook isn't their lucky charm. It's their player that has a name of Zeke Nnaji. A role player that got a 4-year $32M contract, but Coach Malone can't even put him inside the court. In their game against the Clippers, he didn't play. I mean you're being paid that huge, but you aren't playing. Aside from Bronny's questionable 4-year contract, this contract is also one of the questionable and worst contracts I've seen.

If the Nuggets play terrible this season, I will not be surprised if Jokic will request a trade just because of the wrong decisions the management has been made.

Looking at their schedule I didn't expect the Lakers to start 3:0 this season. Also if you consider they were down 22 points against the Suns and still managed to come back.
People were talking about signing Reddick, that he has no experience, he is too young, and so on but actually you can see his system working until now. Quick ball movement and screening, a little bit like what Steve Kerr implemented at the Golden Staten Warriors. Also obviously it helps that Davi plays like an all NBA first team player at the moment, the numbers he is putting um in the first 3 games really are impressing.

For all the statistics lovers, the Lakers haven't started 3:0 since the 2010/11 season.

The Rockets are trying to be more physical, and Dillon Brooks really made a difference with that strong comeback. If they had managed to pull off the win, he could have been the hero. That game was thrilling! At one point, it seemed like the Rockets were done for, but they came back to life.

I guess the officials didn't catch that while they were reviewing the clip for a non-basketball play, or it was deemed not intentional and part of him trying to break the scuffle between Brooks and Wemby, however it can't not be overstated how much of an agitator Dillon Brooks is, there was nothing worth that antics there from him, the whistle had been blown just give up the ball, what does it matter who gets to toss the ball back to the official huh ?

The Clippers and Nuggets are having a hell of a game right now. James Harden shooting free throws to possibly win it. After messing it up the other night I’m sure James wants to make these…

Just like that he hit them both. Denver will have a chance to get one more shot….

Sending Jokic to the line to shoot free throws to tie it now… Good ending for this game. Could go either way.

As I have said before, the Warriors is really moving differently with this set of players that they have. Reminds me of the last time they become a champion. They've won with another huge lead against the Jazz as Utah looks disorganized at the start of this season.

Buddy Hield lead the Warriors with 27 points and again, display his showing touch in the 3 point zone. Curry struggle in the first half, but finished with 20 points. Let's see how far this version of the Warriors can go this season. Again, they could be one of the dark horse in the West for this season as nobody expects them to play good as they've lost half of the Splash Brothers to Luka and the Mavs.
Just to add on this one, the Warriors are the first team in NBA history to win 2 consecutive games with 35+ points or more.

The addition of Buddy Hield plus other role players really is helping them on both on offense and defense. We know it's only just 2 games, but we are seeing the glimpse of how the Warriors will play into the regular season. Buddy Hield really is helping them in offense, and I know this sounds too early, but he can be a candidate or might be the winner of 6th man of the year just by looking at his performance in his first 2 games. With this, Steph doesn't need to focus on offense that much because he can make some assists as well and that's what make him more dangerous. Imagine the greatest shooter of all time that can also make plays. Hmmm.

Klay is happy now that he's in Dallas, and as for Golden State, they found a new Splash Brother already. Smiley Let's see how they will play the whole regular season.

Anthony Davis is on fire. 35 points for their match against the Suns. While 36 points when they were against the Wolves.

And hearing that Bronny is going to be sent to the G League, that's a good decision from the team so he'll develop there more before going back to the Lakers.

We all knew Bronny wasn't qualified to play for the Lakers. But the idea of ​​seeing a father and son on the court together was really great, it was a great event that will go down in history.
But this player needs to improve, we all know there are thousands of basketball players who can play better than him right now.

I hope he can really improve in the G-League and continue to live up to his father's legendary name

Lebron's wish came true and he played side-by-side with his son Bronny in an NBA game. Everyone who watched the game realized that Bronny isn't good enough for NBA level. He would have a chance to improve himself in the G-League. But I think he will never reach the level to play in the NBA. It is said that Lebron's other son Bryce is much better than Bronny. I can't wait to watch him as well.

The Phoenix Suns lack their defensive players. Grayson Allen and Josh Okogie so they are mostly relying on the offense from Durant, Beal, and Booker which is not a recipe for a win. I guess that is why the Lakers were the favorite before the game started yesterday.

Bronny going to the G League is not something that should step on his ego. Remember, years ago before the Golden State Warriors won their 3rd or 4th championship, they sent many of their players in the G League and they came back as a better player. Gary Payton II, Kuminga, and more. It's something that would upgrade his skills and talents and I think that's not a bad idea to send him there considering he is still young and I doubt he will get minutes with the packed roster of the Lakers.

AD really showing great as he's producing decent numbers, knowing him when he's healthy surely Lakers can really rely on him, though it's a team efforts and we seen that they really doing well rotating and making those important shots, they need to be consistent and stay healthy, 2-0 now for them same with the Warriors who also doing great with their rotations, no need for the core players to play long as they've got the backup to fill the spot and do the same damage when inside the court.

They’re really the real deal this season. That’s twice in a row now they’ve won by a huge margin. Looks like Thompson was actually the issue last season. The Warriors' dominance is still here, and honestly, I think they’re the best team in the NBA right now. I didn’t get to watch the game, but when I saw the score, I knew I had to check out Buddy Hield’s stats. I was right; he totally led the game. Now, even if Curry has an off night, we know they’ve got a solid chance to win because Curry’s got his Buddy - and that Buddy is Hield.

They immediately get chemistry with their new players and we can see them enjoying each game they play. Its like we see a championship team Warriors way back before so provably that many people look forward for them to became a champion this season. There execution of plays is pretty solid and we also see how happy Curry with how his teammates perform. This result for many wins for them and if they continue to play like this then provably that many teams will suffer in their hands.

So let's see on how long this streak would able to go and if there's no injury will happen to their important players since provably this could stop their momentum if sudden incident like this would happen to them.

Ahhh. Ya, I wouldn’t take those odds. No way it happens.

It is actually being reported today that the Lakers are already planning to send Bronny to the G league. That means he may have already seen his last minutes in the NBA. He might get a couple minutes on this next road trip, but it is possible his career NBA stats have already been finalized.

Took them long enough to figure that out I think. But to be honest and fair to real G league players, Bronny is not even on that level. The G league is fully of players that dominated Bronny in the NCAA last year, and they also worked on their game. So I think he doesn't even belong there and his performance and stats must improve dramatically if he wants a good narrative out of his stint in this league.
So yeah I agree, minutes wise the last game must have been his last. I don't see him racking up stats that would justify bringing him back into the rotation, unless they have like 5 injured players of course.

If a team decides to send a player to the G League, it doesn't mean the end of his NBA career because a team can recall a player back to the main roster at any time. In Bronny's case, I think that playing in the G League would probably be good for him because his current skills are not enough to compete with other NBA players, and it was clearly noticeable from his performances both during the summer league and the preseason.
Yes, it doesn't mean that they are not going to be pick up again. It's that they will be given sometime to really sharpen their skills and we have seen a lot of players from G League becoming regulars in the NBA. Although mentally, it might affect Bronny or even Lebron himself, but that could be really beneficial for Bronny to get that needed experience. Remember that he didn't play college basketball, so that is a huge gap in him as far as experience goes. For the triple double, I also do not think that he can do it this season. Probably it's just casinos baiting their gamblers to put money on it.

Bronny James To Record A Triple-Double In Any Game   +15000
I love to bet on that one with a very high odds,... do you think it's possible? lol... just trying to have fun but if you guys believe then I guess try to check your bookies now, and see if that is still available.
Not yet. I'm into this odds but I don't think that Bronny will be able to make a triple double. If it's about scoring 10+ points then that's a better chance that he'll make that. But this is regular season and the next match of them is going to be against the Phoenix Suns. I don't see this odd betting in stake but this isn't worth it to be honest or if you want to just try out and be the gambler yourself, small amounts might do or any that you afford to lose.

I don't think it is possible at all to be honest.  He's never come close to that in any game he's played in years as far as I'm aware.  Not to mention he's pretty small, so 10 rebounds likely isn't happening.  He might have a game where he scores 10 points, that isn't out of the question.  I'd say him getting 10 assists is extremely unlikely.  Him getting 10 points, 10 rebounds, and 10 assists...  The only way that happens is if the Lakers fall victim to many injuries and the stars align perfectly for Bronny to have the best game of his life.  15,000:1 seems like appropriate odds.

Yeah he is more of a triple single kinda guy. But wait, there is a chance, what about 10 points, 10 assists and 10 turnovers, haha. I mean turnover wise he is looking pretty "good", at least in the preseason.

About the odds, actually +15000 is just 150x and not 15000:1, I don't think that's good odds for such unlikelyness. Sure this MIGHT happen, it's not impossible, but so also isn't a 60 point game from Bronny.  Tongue

Ahhh. Ya, I wouldn’t take those odds. No way it happens.

After failing to live up to the excitement of the previous season under Markkanen, Utah lost a winnable game against Memphis in the first game this season. They committed too many turnovers. George played very badly. Cody Williams, their 10th overall pick, didn't attempt a shot despite playing 19 minutes. Golden State, which failed to make the play-in last season after winning the championship two seasons ago, put on a show against Portland in the fourth quarter. Curry narrowly missed a triple double. Newcomer Hield scored well. Curry and Green's status is uncertain in this match. But I expect a high tempo and high scoring game.
