As a long time Mavs fan, Im happy that they able to get a good spot on draft pick last season acquiring Smith Jr. and consider as one of the face of the franchise in the future. And the following draft pick, the arrival of Luka Doncic which strengthen Dallas firepower.

But while on progress, I have noticed that Smith Jr. and Doncic didn't have a good blend. It's not about the chemistry I guess since the numbers of games they played this seasoin is enough to test the waters but I think "something is going on".

And the result is, Dennis Smith Jr. is currently on trade plan list by the Mavs.

Anyways for those who didn't know, the NBA trade deadline is on February 7 so we can expect major and minor changes on a certain team or even a surprising blockbuster trade prior to that date.

Yes, and the announcer was like "How many dunks does Klay usually does in a game, he has 3 already" and then Klay just dunks again, crazy.

Of course the complexion of the game will be different, but then again they blew off the Nuggets right from the start and never game them the chance to even get closer that 10 or 15 points if I'm not mistaken.

Durant is okay for me as a backup offensive player whenever the originals are injured. Problem is, it happened mostly.
Curry, Green and Iguodala having those mild injuries which seems to also reflect on their ranking.

Now they need most of the win they can get before hell happens again and Curry will be out which is like the heart of GSW. It aint GSW without him. They are a whack team.

Amazing comeback win for the Brooklyn Nets. Down by 10 or more in the last four minutes was able to get back and tie the score. And again during the OT they are down, but played defense and hitting big time shots.

Harden's though has another 50+ point game but the Nets ruining it. Spencer Dinwiddie played very well today hitting three's during their comeback run and also in OT. Future All-star, or likely candidate for 6th Man.

The Nets had improved a lot this season, in the past seasons, they were one of the weakest teams in the NBA like the Sixers and the Phoenix Suns.
Now, they are competing and looks like they have a chance to be in the playoffs again, with these young team after they rebuild has finally found the success like the Celtics, in the past these 2 teams are involved on the Garnett and Paul Pierce trade but the Nets as the recipient were not successful on that trade that's why they also choose to rebuild.

As a crypto enthusiast I'm happy to know that Spencer Dinwiddie is the top scorer for the Nets in this game because he publicly said he is investing in crypto.

Nets won thanks to Dinwiddie playing amazingly on the fourth quarter and the OT. Dude had 8 points going into fourth quarter and than ended the game at 33 points, that equals to 25 points in the fourth quarter and over time. That is an amazing performance by him and basically carried the whole team on his shoulders to a victory.

Harden continues his 40+ poing average games, he is about to become the second longest streak of 40+ points averaged after ... well of course wilt chamberlain. I think harden has a chance to beat kobe's 23 game streak, harden is at 19 right now, 4 more games close to or over 40 points and he can beat it unless he scores very little in the next games.

No matter what happens this has been a great year for him, without CP3 and any other help he managed to carry rockets back to where they belong, without Harden rockets are nothing. To think that he was at OKC and got here years ago, he turned into a superstar maybe a bit slowly but he worked hard and continued on his path to success without a break.

Who else watched Washington Wizards come back from 12 points deficit after the 3rd quarter to defeat the New York Knicks by 101 - 100. Although the wizards were the clear cut favorite ( I also had a bet on them to win with -4.5 points) to win the match but slump to 10 points behind after the 1st quarter, the 2nd quarter end draw and the lost the 3rd quarter again by a two points margin, but were able to stage a complete come back in the last quarter to win the match by a single point.

That's how good team respond to the situation, NEW YORK KNICKS desperate needs a win but they did not able to upset the Wizards on their home court.
4th quarter was the only quarter the wizards work hard to win the game, in the 1st 3 quarters, they struggle to take the game close but they got lucky in the 4th, home court really brings advantage as the crowd helps boost their confidence to still get back in the game and win.

Kuzma, Zubac and Lonzo Ball stepping up to get a big win in overtime against the Thunders.

Westbrook was off and so is PG13. Lot of frustration from the Thunders team too.
How about the turnovers? Lakers got a higher number of turnovers but Thunders just cant get that bucket after a turnover.

This proves again that even without Lebron, the young guns can make it.
Lets wait what will happen with their gameplay when James is back.

Comparisons truly are unavoidable but on our part, it's acceptable to give everyone's thought and hear them out on who's the best pick for them. I also respect everyone's point of view regarding their favorite players.

And it's good to hear a compliment that everyone recognizes Harden though it's not just those plays that he made but most of the time he really plays well. They are two different player and the crowd really likes them.
