New Album & The Beginning of Basketball Season

[Steve williams]

Wow , Phil

i didn’t see the game but was shocked that they lost in OT. I guess I’m still used to only a few great teams playing for it all Nowadays so many good teams that are going, fast and can shoot 3’s.

also today the Pels continue to improve as they beat a hot Sacramento team by 36 points.

Yeah, Steve, foul shots killed them. Holiday missed 2 free throws that would have iced the game in regulation. Then Tatum missed the last of 3 free throws that would have tied it and send it to 2 overtimes. That's basically the story. Lol

well FWIW the Celts are still first in the power rankings so this is a mere blip in the great scheme of things.I still feel the finals n the EC go through Boston. It's theirs to lose

if the Lakers go to the Play In finals, I will plan on going to Vegas to watch the game.

This is a 'first'.

Knicks seek over $10M in damages from Raptors

In a court filing Monday, the Knicks said they're seeking over $10 million in damages from the Raptors as part of a lawsuit alleging the theft of thousands of confidential files, and argued NBA commissioner Adam Silver shouldn't arbitrate the dispute.

The Cavs stay hot and lead at the half in Philadelphia 65-53

There just aren't any games where you can say "this is a given". So many upsets so far

Nuggs seem to be a different team with Murray out. He's strong at what he does. He's missed

 

[Steve williams]

I have to ad it that the Lakers seem to be energized the past few games. This one is in the refrigerator as at the end of 3rd Lakers are crushing the Jazz 102-75

 

[Steve williams]

Cavs stay tough and beat the Sixers in Philadelphia but the shooting guns tonight were tge Pacers and Hawks. What a back and forth as Pacers win 157-152 in regulation

I have to admit that watching the Lakers in the In Season tournament, they are a different team as they play at full throttle. Last night the Lakers clinched their Group with a 4-0 record. Watching the games, none of it could have happened without the play of th oldest man in the league You all know Im not a fan, but I have to give credit where credit is due....at age 39 he is literally carrying the Lakers in every game. The Lakers drawbacks to date is that the club is still to 100% with injured payers sitting out. Turnovers is their biggest nemesis but the younger players seem to get better with every game

I have also grown to like Darwin Ham as Coach and it also seems the players really cozy up to hims @Dimfer, if they make it to the finals in Las Vegas I'll meet you there as I will likely go as well

on e last comment about the Lakers that is going to make @christoph and @jadis choke on their breakfast cereal. As I have said many times, my favorite player on the Lakers is Austin reaves who to me is destined for fame. What Isee in Reaves at this point in his career is the same sort of player Steph Curry was in his earlier years. I believe Reaves has so much potential that the I see him making such impossible shots, the image of Steph Curry comes to mind.....just saying....

Wolves sit alone in 1st place in the WC with OKC not far behind

Orlando in the east keeps on winning. The league is so dynamic this year

 

[Steve williams]

Tonight is the big one Phil.....Celtics vs Bucks in their first matchup this season. It should be a trophy game no matter who wins. Celts are my bet but the unknown factor is Lillard This was a thoughtfully written comparison....

Milwaukee is getting clobbered in Boston as the Celtic are playing like true champs. I would have to think Tatum would be on the Kia ladder for MVP during the year

Celtics 67-53

 

[jadis]

Thrilling game in Orlando as they beat the Nuggets. I just learned that the Magic have the number defense in the league. That surely translates into wins.

 

[Steve williams]

The Magic are my Cinderella team this year. They are going to be around at the end

Beating the Nuggs is no small task. I watched the Magic destroy the Lakers earlier this season

 

[Steve williams]

What a nail biter in Boston as Milwaukee comes to within 3 with 22 seconds left to play

 

[Steve williams]

What a finish as Celtics hang tough at the end

Final Celtics 119-116

For a while there, I thought the Bucks would go on to close the gap and the C's would miss free throws. Good thing they practiced the FTs.

I chanced upon the Spurs Clippers game and saw Pop taking the microphone of the refs and telling the home crowd to lay off booing Kawhi each time he touches the ball. But the crowd continued to boo Kawhi. LOL

 

[Steve williams]

The Wolves are another for real team. IMO last year was their break out year. I think they beat the Lakers each time they played but tonight they put the hurt on the Sixers who lose 112-99
