^^ If I'm not mistaken, that lists is updated as of December 31.

Anyhow, I'm sure some of you may have recalled as we have a argument whether Lauri Markkanen is an All-Star. This is way in the beginning where the Jazz are on top, and it looks like he is being rewarded now as he enters the list.

And so much for that debate though, we have the answers now.  Grin

We can't complain about the lists though, it's about their fans who voted for them.

The next All-Star NBA game this 2023 season is right around the corner, and regarding the updated voting I think Lebron James and Kevin Durant was still the favorite to be captains of the team, and their guards for the West is Stephen Curry, and for the East is Kyrie Irving, surely enough I am excited about who's going to be MVP again, I have seen that Russell Westbrick was on the list and many are complaining about Austin Reaves getting on the list aswell, which is I really think seems OK and surely Shai Gilgeous-Alexander have made it while he is extremely great at playing at the Oklahoma City Thunder,

While here is the list for the All-star voting for now, I really don't know if this is updated and I have just seen it on the news,



It is posted during the Denver game too so I think it's an updated version. But it's just the initial returns, this is not yet the final list of who will be in the All-Star.
SGA getting a lot of votes, that's good news for the OKC Thunder fans.
Lauri Markkanen at 7th spot, nice. I am voting for this dude, he is an All-Star caliber and he is showing it now in NBA and so does in FIBA Euroleague.
6 players in the Golden State Warriors. I think that's just too much. I am a Steph Curry fan but this is not looking good if we see their whole team faces in All-Star.
Draymond Green
Kevon Looney
Klay Thompson
Andrew Wiggins
Jordan Poole
Steph Curry
Is Sacramento Kings fanbase that small? Where are Fox and Sabonis? I mean I am glad to see Haliburton for the Pacers but the two guys from Kings should join too. I hope it's just because the initial results from Sacramento was just late.

Unfortunately I was not able to watch this whole Celtics vs Mavericks game, but I saw in some highlights that Marcus Smart played well, and mainly his main characteristic which is his defense, worked well in this game, because I also agree that "only" 23 points for Luka it's not much, I immediately imagined that for this to have happened either Luka played badly or he was very well guarded.

Good thing you didn't watch the game but it turns out it was just a boring game. Honestly, I didn't expect that the Mavericks will lose by blowout in that game, they were playing very well at home, so I was expecting that they will at least make it tougher for the Celtics to beat them.

And isn't it in their home court? so fans are disappointed for sure to see their team lost his big as if there was no energy on the Mavs itself. And this is what we are talking earlier that when Luka doesn't get any help, their team will be doom.

So for him to score in 23 points is not that much for team to win the game. And so we go back as who will actually need to step and help him out specially in crucial games down the line.

They've face the best team in the East, although Celtics have been very inconsistent lately, they are still very good team and so I'm not surprised that they have win the game against the Mavs even at their homecourt.

They have the best defense in the league if I'm not mistaken, and they were able to cover Luka from the first quarter and didn't allow him to take over.

Tatum too has a quite but very impressive night.

I hope Dallas will learn from that mistake, they cannot rely heavily on Luka as good teams such as the Clippers have something to counter their strategy. Right now, the best teams are still the Warriors and the Celtics, some are just inconsistent and are not ready yet to be in the NBA Finals.

Well, we have the Bucks and the 76ers too, but Celtics will definitely take care of them.

With Nuggets if the joker can not play that will be a problem for the Nuggets, but for now, they are still playing with him, and has good health right now,
He will be crucial if he misses the playoffs. That means Gordon, Murray, and Porter Jr. will need to step up their game in a level they never had done.
Jokic is the heart of their team, it's hard to imagine a Nuggets team without him.

This is the negative side of a team that depends mostly on a single player. Teams like Milwaukee and Denver will be easily at the bottom of the rankings if Giannis Antetokounmpo and Nikola Jokic are out. I don't think the rest of the roster can really compete well. Unlike the other teams like Boston and Memphis, they are surrounded by too many talents that they can perform well even with the absence of one star.

Denver is on top of the west and is even competing to lead the overall ranking is surprising to me. We are still half of the season anyways and there are a lot of swings that happens since the start of the season. But somehow after winning back-to-back MVPs, I like to see Jokic getting a ring.
It looks like we are heard, and they proved us wrong. Cheesy Their second team against the Los Angeles Clippers is what happened last night. Nikola Jokic only played 24 minutes and didn't have to stand up in their bench as it was well covered by Bones Hyland, Vlatko Cančar, and Zeke Nnaji.
Okay, I will stop underestimating their bench from now on, but I want to see consistency. Proved every analyst wrong and savor the minutes that will be given to them by not just keeping the lead but by adding more.

Well, to whoever was complaining, I guess Westbrook and Reeves deserve a spot in the allstar game. The only reason why they look like a mediocre with the Lakers, is because they were under the shade of LeBron's spotlight. I kinda admire Westbrook for embracing his role and adjusting himself into a position where he can still contribute to the team. Look at him, he could still drop a triple double even with a minimal scoring. Put Westbrook or Reeves to a team that has no legit superstar that carries the team the whole time and they'll surprise with their potential.

Well, I admit I was a little out of date with this All-Star game information.
But I think that's what I had in mind, LJ and Curry on one side and Durant and Kyrie Irving on the other.
I confess that it will be an interesting game!


So we are in a different era right now that as Luka said, it's easy to score in the NBA. And we can add to the sports medicine and trainings too has progressed in the last 20 years. A lot has really contributed why we are now seeing players scoring 40 points and higher per night.

Let's just appreciate how they play right now and so far, this is the most surprising season we had in the last 10 years because of how the star players in the teams turning their games into something historical play. With them being consistent in making their shots to score more than 50 points, they are about to surpass some great records this season and they are a few more points to be in the second but Kobe's still the best one after Wilt's 100. Do you guys think Victor Wembanyama can be the next Wilt Chamberlain? let's see if he gonna score more points in his first-season debut in the NBA.
As for Victor Wembanyama, I cant say if he will be the next Wilt Chamberlain or will be the biggest bust. There are players that are great in the amateurs but failed miserably in the NBA. I think if he has to surpassed records, it should be Luka, because he has been breaking Lebron James record in the first five years if I'm not mistaken.

To early to tell about that and comparing him to a legend doesn't give  any justification so maybe lets see if he can provide the same performance what he show on lower leagues since competition there and in NBA are so different.

Luka have huge potential to break records over records and he's so young so for sure to many excellent improvements will come to his career.

I believed that Luka can surpassed many of Lebron records at a young age, but we all know that the true gauge for greatness if how many rings you can have in your hand and so far, LUka has a long way to go to get even one at this point.

And speaking of him, they are being massacred by the Boston Celtics in their homecourt and probably gonna take the L tonight.

No Luka magic for us.

It's the defense that Smart put on Luka, he just got 23 points in this game and not his usual game.

Denver is having their time against the Clippers, and it's a blow out a huge 40 point lead and the Clippers can't seem to find any offense in this game. Jokic is just playing easy right now, and Porter just got a good dunk, it's 43 point lead now.

The TNT crew is back in action tonight with a doubleheader. First up we’ve got the Celtics vs Mavericks. Luka has been on fire lately but the Celtics are hanging onto one of the best records in the league, so this should be a close one. Then we’ve got the Clippers vs Nuggets. I believe Paul George may be out with a sore ankle, which will make it tough on the Clippers since the Nuggets have been on fire lately. Still two good games to watch. Smiley

Yes, this two games are a must watch lead leading Celtics against the Luka Magic, who will check Luka in the side of the Celtics? and it seems he is unstoppable in the last couple of games.

And then on the West, Nuggets on top, but they are going to face a tough team in LA Clippers one of the most underrated team right now. But they still have Kawhi and John Wall, so they might pull a surprised here, just saying.

Yeah, yeah. I miss hearing the voices of the funny guys in the halftime report and so our unbiased in-game commentators.
Two very good games indeed. Getting my bet for Luka prop and Jokic prop as this could become a close game that will put big numbers in their stats. Overtime maybe?  Cheesy

Lebron took years before he can get a championship although he was a promising rookie at the start of his career.
He made an easy shortcut by joining Wade and Bosh in Miami, just like Durant, he also joined Curry and Thompson to win championships. If there's no hope in a team, then that talent needs to be taken to a team that has a decent chance of winning a championship. Well, so much expectation from him, we all know how talented he is, but this is NBA, the biggest league in the world, so he also need to maintain himself to be healthy, so as not to waste his talent.
Oh, that I forgot to mention too, health problems. But the medical procedures now are at a different level so it might not cost players a lot.
Kevin Durant, Klay Thompson, Zion Williamson, Paul George, and more, all got better and still dominating the league.
I think it goes down to the mental toughness of Victor Wembanyama because injuries will be part of the game but how he will get up afterward will be the big question.

Yes, I think everyone is appreciating how the game is play right now, how superstars are scoring, the heroics last second ending, huge comeback in less than a minute, for sure everyone of us here are appreciating as we enter a new era again, more shooting from the outside and the handles though, it's very different from how the game we watch when we are still very young.

Easy shortcut? I will disagree with that.

When Lebron James joined the Miami Heat, there are lots of strong teams during that season, the stacked Boston Celtics, Los Angeles Lakers, Dallas Mavericks, San Antonio Spurs, etc. Miami Heat was also not that performing well a year prior when they acquire Lebron. The team was eliminated by the Boston Celtics with superstars Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, and Ray Allen on board in 5 games in the 1st round of the playoffs. Lebron joined Wade and Bosh to challenge those superteams.

The situation was different and can't be compared to when Kevin Durant joined the Golden State Warriors where prior to his arrival on the team, the Warriors have a record of 73-9 and they are reigning the NBA during that season. Warriors though on that year, even with that record lost in the Finals against the Cleveland Cavaliers even though they are up by 3-1.
I also agree with this analogy. In the 06-07 season of the NBA, literally LeBron James led the Cavaliers to the NBA finals, but that unfortunately was easily defeated by the Spurs, so in the next season, Celtics restructured and became an excellent team, with that, I didn't see in a way LJ being a "cupcake" player going to the Heat, basically Miami along with Wade and Bosh restructured, thus being a great team, playing at the same level as the Mavericks, Spurs, Lakers and Celtics of that time.

Lakers 112 - 109 Heat
~
without a doubt Dennis Schroder was the guy who boosted our victory, he scored 32 points, our next game will be against the Hawks, we're going to beat them again

It's even surprising that the Lakers were able to beat a team like the Heat without LeBron and Davis. However, it should be noted that it's been almost halfway through the regular season, but the Lakers are still struggling, and it looks like the second half of the season will be tough for them because they still don't even qualify for a play-in tournament. As for Schroder, he performed really well in this game, but it's a pity he rarely performs that well.
I also noticed this, the Lakers won a close victory against the Heat without their best players (LJ and AD). This shows that the Lakers still have a team, that if they play with chemistry and have teamwork, they can still win other games without LJ and AD.
Young player Thomas Bryant and Schröder managed to guide the Lakers to victory, not to mention that Westbrook also helped the team.
Will this performance be maintained with the absence of LJ and AD?

Is it just me or NBA quality and excitement in games, especially endings went up crazy fast lately? Even though it's only regular season we see great performances, breaking records, unbelievable comebacks and buzzer beaters in almost every game.
Watched two games yesterday night and both of them had crazy ending. Toronto Raptors made an unbelievable comeback and carried the game to overtime but they lost there. Then I switched to Pistons - Warriors game and it had similar end. Warriors almost went overtime with Klay but Saddiq Bey said the last word. Draymond got ejected again. Crazy games we witnessed every night and I love it.

We're on the same boat man. It all started with Donovan Mitchell scoring his career-best and franchise record just a few days ago. Now everyone follows suit setting their new career records and getting some best for just this season alone. Perhaps it helps that it's just the regular season and nothing too fancy to worry about, but still they're playing at the highest level of basketball and they're making things look easy. Multiple games have been taken to overtime from double-digit score deficits, and what's crazy is that they make it seem like those leads are nothing but motivation just to get hyped and fired up.

Grayson Allen's 3-point shot made the difference that put the Raptor's push to OT a waste. That clutch play for him secured Bucks' win. Lots of games with these kinds of back-and-forth and catching leads but this one takes the cake for yesterday's game.

Both ending got similarity indeed, I was thinking that after that shot of Klay, the game will on the overtime, and they will slowly snatch
that game since they are mostly doing it.

But that last shot of Saddiq Bey disappoints the whole dub nation, really crazy final shot and the outcome went out favoring the visiting team.

Regarding to Raptor's it was short, though they manage to push the game into Overtime but that final assist of Giannis to Allen, it was a clear
look and Allen have enough time to take and make that winning shot.
