Bummer to read that Zion Williamson will be out for the season opener tonight as reported by Bleacher Report. Not the greatest way for him to start the season considering he never makes it to the end of the season. The Pelicans are going to have to figure out something with their roster fast. Their time is running out.

Well him and Kawhi could be some of the best paid player that hasn't made a full season with their current team because of nagging injuries and other issues with them. I also have the feeling that if things didn't go well with Zion, depending on his contract, he could be traded or not offered a good contract next.

Suns leading the Clippers, it's second half so let's see how it goes. Their big 3 is really contributing big in this game, specially Bradley Beal. I wanted him to play great this season with the Suns so that it will be a interesting West conference as teams are pretty loaded.

I’m seeing a lot of people trashing LeBron for now having the most missed shots in NBA history. I think that’s a pretty bad take. LeBron has scored a lot more points than Kobe and he just passed him in missed shots. LeBron’s efficiency has always been amongst the best in the NBA. Him having the most missed shots speaks more to his longevity than his ability to.l make shots in my opinion.

In principle, it is not surprising that he has the most missed shots in NBA history because he has already played 22 seasons in the NBA and has performed in almost 1,5k games. And if we compare to other top players, I think LeBron has had the highest number of both haters and fans in his career. Everyone can have a different opinion of him, but I think everyone agrees he's the GOAT in one way or another.

Lebron James, one of the greatest basketball players in history, finally realized what he had been dreaming for years: The first father-son duo to play together in the NBA. Lebron emphasized the importance of family at the end of the game, while Bronny said  he would never forget this moment. The Lakers won the game 110-103, starting the season with a victory.

Well done for him. AD had a blast on this match and we're now back to the regular season of the NBA.

It's now written in the history for LeBron to play with his son together in a preseason and in a regular season. Maybe next year, with two sons?

You'll always see them and that hate is now being thrown to Bronny, these people just likes to bash LBJ and his son.

Yes, but that trashing is baseless though in my opinion. Of course, in order to make the points made in history, he will have to take a lot of shots as well.

Good to see the Celtics making another history in their first game, maybe this is a sign that they will give everything again to make it back to back.

Lots of interesting games tonight, for sure NBA fans are going to be very happy, specially our NBA bettors now,  Smiley

Early in the season, the Celtics have already made history.

Celtics make NBA history in blowout win over Knicks
Quote
The Celtics made NBA history later in the fourth quarter after matching the Bucks’ mark of 29 3-point makes set in December 2020.

They’re playing really well, with all the starters scoring in double digits, and they’re not even at full strength yet since KP didn’t play in this game.

They've got each other's back and with how they rotate the ball you'll see how confident they are with those shots that they've take, I like the way you mentioned KP knowing him as an additional threat if he's inside a 2-way player who can provide decent productions as well, plus that boost inside each players who've been a part of last championship experience that's an add ons to play well in front of your home crowd.

If they said that father and son would play on the same team in the NBA, I would say I lost my mind, but it happened, yes, yes, isn't it great?
Lebron James and Bronny James did a great job, in their first game, they gave the Lakers a victory..
Father and son are a dream for many men, I would enjoy watching them, and they are living it.

The real crazy thing is he could stay in the league long enough to end up playing alongside 2 of his sons. Given their size differences, we could realistically see LeBron, Bronny, & Bryce on the floor at the same time. With all the talk around Bronny, people aren’t yet focusing on Bryce who is in my opinion the better prospect.

Since the talks are about signing contract. We can remember about Giannis giving a clue to the Bucks management that he might transfer to another team if they won't win a chip this season. Well, the Bucks has answered with this;

There are rumors that the Bucks are interested in trading MarJon Beauchamp to open a roster spot. Apparently, it's just to re-sign a contract with Thanasis, which I think is a very bad decision from the Bucks' management. I'm wondering what kind of value Thanasis can bring to the team in the upcoming season. Will he be cheering up the players in the locker room or handing out Gatorade and towels on the bench? Roll Eyes
Yeah something like that. I've heard about something like being cheerful in the lockers and as well as in the bench. So, the value he really brings to the team is that the Bucks will manage to retain his brother Giannis, so it's always like a 2-in-1 deal if they're re-signing Thanasis. Not bad to them as Giannis is their star player and they cannot release him like that for bringing them their chip. But a time will come that they'll just have to let him go for wanting so.

I can relate to this feeling of satisfaction as parents since finally you are already with your son on the game which you really love the most. I think this will be a sign that Lebron near retirement if he finally feels that he already achieved what he is dreaming.

Lebron is already successful as player and has nothing to proved.he is just playing now for salary but he is not hungry anymore for any achievements since he already done a lot. I think he might aim for championship or playoffs with his son while he is still on active career.

It’s just sad that his son being bash just because of his bashers too.

Bronny though might be nervous from that pass from his father that's why he didn't convert it.


Bronny just can’t shoot, so I don't think he was just nervous.  Grin

Anyway, I thought the Wolves would take that win since they seemed like the better team based on last season's performance. Maybe things have changed a lot since they traded KAT for Randle, who was a major threat inside. But let’s see if they can bounce back in the next game. As for Bronny, I’m honestly not expecting much from him. Even if his dad keeps feeding him the ball, he just doesn’t seem to have the talent to truly deserve a spot in the NBA.

I didn’t expect to see Ken Griffey Jr and Sr sitting courtside at the Lakers game, but that’s pretty cool. Everyone is just waiting for Bronny to get on the floor so history can be made. The announcers are talking like it isn’t a sure thing it will happen, but I’m pretty sure if they flew the Griffeys out for courtside seats we’re going to see Bronny check in.

With the Lakers having a dominant performance against the Wolves, yes, Bronny checked in along with LeBron.
Great opening game win for the Lakers and Bronny will have a lot to learn. That last minute advice from LeBron before checking in really tells everything. Preseasons, summer leagues has way different intensity during the regular season and it's even intensify in the playoffs. So, the kid should be ready for it lol.

And with that, the James father and son duo made history again. AD really had a good game today and so is Rui, and it's good that the Lakers didn't trade him or any of it's key players are there are rumors before the season starts that some of them might be traded.

Bronny though might be nervous from that pass from his father that's why he didn't convert it.

While I never seen the Celtics games, they made history and I saw pics of the last great Celtics team with Pierce, KG and surprisingly Ray Allen. But it seems that Rondo is still not over with his beef with Allen I guess. But as the saying goes, time heals all wounds and hopefully they will patch things up.

Yes, I also thought that the Wolves are going to win, but we forget that there is this thing called homecourt advantage, and with that, in the first quarter alone, the Lakers did play good, with Rui exciting the crowd with his dunks and then AD playing defense.

ANT scored, but he has missed some good view on the three point line. And then Bronny and Lebron, playing along side to a regular game. Yeah, it's true the intensity is very much different in regular games moving forward. And so with that criticism on Klay Thompson performing badly with the Mavs, maybe when he step on the court this time, it will be very different game for him.

Yeah there's a homecourt advantage where players are really playing well to entertained their fans, though it's only the beginning but with the way Lakers coaches rotates his guys, that's really good seeing them getting their minutes and share some either in defense or offense, good start especially with AD having that monster game with a heathy physical conditions, hopefully he'll maintain that and continue helping without hesitation.

In terms of Wolves, they fought well just not enough to snatch this game against the home team, ANT still doing that same impact just needed to fuel more especially when distributing the ball, creating space for his teammates of attacking then dropping the ball to an open gunner.

Damn, I just watched a funny video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFdlHhiuvx8

After the Celtics tied the current record for 3s in a game (29) the missed the next/last 13 3 point attempts to set a new record, plenty of them wide open.  Grin
Here is the story to is as well: https://www.nba.com/news/celtics-tie-nba-record-29-3-pointers

It's crazy how it goes sometimes. You shoot the lights out, have 29/48 from 3 with a great percentage and then when you just need 1 more to get a new record, it just won't happen.
Yeah, I also see post of it in my Facebook, and I guess the basketball God is against the Celtics for the record,  Grin.

It might be good though if Tatum went for the 3 point record as well, 8-11 for him in this game. How about how dominant AD in their games the Wolves, 36 points, 16 rebounds, he even had a block against Rudy Gobert and probably sending a message as to he should be the Defensive Player of the Year. And Lebron James finished with 16 points, five rebounds and four assists. And probably this is where the Wolves missed KAT, there is no more big men that can at least go and fight guys like AD and maybe all other teams as well. Good start as well for new Laker coach JJ Reddick.

The crowd would have lost it if Bronny hit that 3 on the pass from LeBron. That would have been an epic moment. Unfortunately, Bronny couldn’t deliver, but he made history being out there a couple minutes even if he had a +/- of -5 and only recorded a rebound. Anthony Davis stole the show tonight. Jayson Tatum had himself a night in the other game as well.
