New Album & The Beginning of Basketball Season

Lakers at Nets today was a fun game.I've been a Lakers fan for 40 + years and a LeBron fan I'm not. Yet today the game stated with Lakers scoring 17-0 before Nets scored their first. Lakers had a 26 point lead which as always they squandered as the Nets come to within 8 ....then this 40 yo guy takes over the game and hits 3's from everywhere . He was 9 of 10, 3 pointers made and was the entire Lakers offense. Lakers have no defense except when AD decides to, so Lakers always win. not on Deee but just outscoring their opponents

Reaves seems ro be in a bit of a slump as he has been missing a lot of 3 point shots

LeeBron got a standing ovation as he truly was the entire game.

It was good to finally see Gabe Vincent back on the court. He did little but he can be a factor hopefully in the playoffs. If Lakers have all bodies healthy by playoffs they might find their way out of the play in round but defense wins games and the Lakers don't know how to spell the word.

Final Lakers 116-104 Nets

Another down to the wire Knicks game. Thunder up only 2 with 27 seconds. Lots of missed FTs, 11 for each team. I just looked up , the Thunder has 3 guys named Williams - Jaylen, Jaylin, and a Kenrich. Jaylen has 33 points.

Brunson just put NY up by 1 with 4 seconds.

Shai just hit a cold blooded fade away, OKC up by 1. 1 second left.

I've seen that clip and I agree that there can be no GOAT question in a 5-man team game. MJ has never called himself the GOAT and in another clip he said you can't compare eras either when asked about the GOAT thing. Imo, the one of the few sports that there could have been a 'valid' GOAT talk is tennis and golf, because they win for themselves alone.

Luka poured in 47 points in the Mavs victory over Rockets. Checking his season stats, he is averaging 34ppg. 9 reb and 10 assists. That could be an MVP stat line right there.

Luka apparently is a whisper behind Jokic for the MVP.
The OKC Knicks game was terrific. SGA will be MVP one day.

 

[jadis]

I've been hearing the MVP should come from the best team in the league during the regular season . I'm beginning to see the point .

 

[Steve williams]

Luka might be close but I honestly don't see anyone but Jokic winning it. I agree the MVP should come from the best team

That's great Steve. Japan is our favorite family vacation place. . What cities are you visiting?

 

[Steve williams]

That's great Steve. Japan is our favorite family vacation place. . What cities are you visiting?

its a big tour. Visiting all of the big cities. Will be on the bullet train etc, etc. Plus cherry blossom time just started so we will catch it as that was one of the reasons we are going at this time of year

Surely you and Cathy will love Japan . Have a great trip . NBA games are hardly shown there though.

just noticed that this pesky OKC team is once again back in first place thanks yesterday to SGA. Can the Thunder deny all odds and finish in the 1 slot in the WC. They have had a storybook season and I have hopes they will go deep in the playoffs

 

[Steve williams]

Well that pesky OKC team got blown out tonight by the Suns. I still can’t figure Phoenix. They have the manpower yet they run hot and cold

 

[Steve williams]

Well how about the Lakers who win again beating the Raptors. This is Deja Vu of the Lakers from a year ago. Only problem I see is that there are too many good teams above them who can easily beat them in a 7 game series

 

[Steve williams]

Wizards of all teams daily beat the Bucks and to put things in perspective Doc’s record since he took over is 15-13… could the Bucks face an early exit. What will they do with Doc. The guy is an albatross who thinks he’s a gifted coach who can only coach winners as he has no time to develop a young team. What a dumb move management made

 

[Steve williams]

OTOH it is good to see the Sixers winning again and rumor has it Embiid will be back on the court this weekend. That could shake things up in the East

 

[jadis]

Sixers with Embiid will put them up there again. Heat is not to be discounted. They have added scoring sock in ex Celtic Rozier. He can score like tonight with 34 points beating the Knicks. Heat's Defense is what makes them dangerous tough, Spo has a system that has run through very well for many years.

Good to know we are in the same time zone now, Steve. Only 1 hour difference between Tokyo and Manila.
