OT was more exciting. Harden played hero again, he got the foul but missed one. How?! Exhausted? Maybe? Anyway, I won my bet on that. -2.5 for the Suns. Thankfully, Nurkic made both free throws. Cheesy
It's just the first week but the games are already intense.

You must've bet early to get that -2.5 spread, that 0.5 win was a thrill. Nurkic is pretty consistent for a big man, so I didn't think he'd miss that free throw. Congrats on your win though, great way to start the first week of NBA betting. Which team surprised you the most so far? For me, it's the Warriors. Their ball movement was flawless, and they took a road win by 30+ points.

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.

Turned out to be a great game and down to the wire. Durant sent it into overtime with a nice fade away over a double team. Then Harden missed a free throw that could’ve sent it into double overtime. In the end the Suns won by 3 points in overtime after Harden lost the ball on a last second chance (his second chance) to send it into double overtime.
Yeah, that was a fun game. Intuit Dome was lively, you can feel from the chants of the Clippers' fans that they are at home. Very nice to see that.

Booker fouled out at the last minute of the 4th quarter, I cannot believe that and I thought it would weaken the chance of the Suns to win the game. But damn, Kevin Durant, the assassin is still doing what he normally does. A fadeaway perimeter shot with Harden and Coffey in his face. Rawr!
Harden tried playing a hero but he should've taken that screen that was being offered to him, the result is him missing the last shot.

Oh what a game, Harden's costly turnover and then missing that free throw. Lol. Booker fouled out and we thought that the Suns is done as he is the one making that big shots and making that comeback.

So debut game and we have OT already, so what more this season will offer to us? Congrats to those who bet on this game, I wasn't able to pull the trigger yet, but in any case, there are a lot more games ahead of us, so let's just take it slowly.

I think tomorrow's game between the Nuggets vs OKC will be a tough one to decide. Denver though, slight favorite against SGA's Thunder.

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.

Well the NBA is always focussing on the weirdest stats to be honest. Of course Lebron at some point had to be on top of this statistic since he also is top on most shots taken, that's what some of the haters are missing when they talk trash.
If LBJ stays healthy he might get up to the 2nd spot in most game played as well, passing Kareem. He has to play 68 games to accomplish that, 51 more games after that to get ahead of Robert Parish. Guess we will see him for another season cause I honestly believe he wants to be on top of that list as well.

By the way, about this list, I am surprised to see Dirk on 4th place having played 1522 games, and obviously all of them for the Mavericks. That's a record nobody can take from Dirk, most games for a franchise (beating John Stockton by 18 games).

I didn’t expect that game to end up being so thrilling. Harden, without PG, Kawhi, and Westbrook, makes them a completely different team, but you can really count on Harden to come through in the clutch (except for that one miss). Despite the result, I’d still say the Clippers are definitely contenders this season, especially once Leonard is back.

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.
I looked at ESPN on why Zion is out on their season opener, and it's due to illness. Saying that "it's not the greatest way for him to start the season" is a bit overexaggerated knowing that he's out only because of an illness. He will be back maybe on their next game against the Trail Blazers.

I don't know why you said that the Pelicans need to figure something out. I mean is there any problem with their current roster now? I don't see any problem with their roster right now, and it's just the start of the season. It's very early to judge the team just because a key player is out (due to an ILLNESS). I agree with what you said though that he's performing well during the regular season but can't play when the playoffs/play-in comes. Maybe that's the problem with the team, but it's too early to judge them.

Their time is running out? Eh? Huh Huh Huh

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.

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.
