That happens many times and I guess in every game, there is always uncalled violations like carries and travels.

Fans want a show. They want to see the players to score more often that's why referees opt not to call some violations. TBH, it sucks to see players not being called for these violations. Ball carrying here, travelling there and some fouls that aren't even being called even though it's obvious that it is. On the other hand, we've also seen some referees calling a technical foul or a flagrant to something that isn't a technical foul at all.

Right now, the Sixers are leading by 10 against the Nets that doesn't have Durant.

Looking at the stats of Nets right now, it's good to see that Kyrie has somebody that will help him offensively now that Durant isn't playing like Curry and Claxton. On the other hand, Maxey is leading the Sixers with 16 points off the bench. I don't think that the Nets will lose that easily to the Sixers even though they are playing on the road. I think it will still be a close one.

Grizzlies Vs. Warriors. I love the trash talking between these 2 teams, and I still can't remember how Thompson looked at Brooks for about 10 seconds after he fell down. Grizzlies are a dynasty? Maybe they need to win a title first before calling themselves a dynasty. They need to prove something first before telling that word.

Nice to see Anthony Davis back on the floor for the Lakers. Granted the Spurs aren’t a good measuring stick, but a win is a win. The new guy Hachimura had a good game and AD put up 21 & 12. Only a couple more weeks until LeBron breaks Kareem’s scoring record. It looks like maybe the Lakers might be firing on all cylinders by then as they look to secure a playoff spot in the second half of the season.

This situation has been going on for a long time, I am not very happy with this situation. Of course, watching a show is nice, but when the rules are not followed, we are not watching basketball. Actually, I didn't enjoy watching the NBA just because the rules were not followed, I started watching it again recently. It's not fun to be shooting after 5-6 steps, we need call more travels

21-12 for AD which is a pretty good stat after him being gone for weeks because of that injury again. Well, I'm not saying "I hope he will not get injured again" blah blah because after all, it will not change the fact that AD is an all-star caliber player, but he's very fragile and injury prone player. Nevertheless, it's good to see him back like you said.

12 points in 21 minutes for Hachimura and a near triple double for Lebron James. 158 points to go until he surpasses Kareem. Westbrook didn't play that good tonight, but it's my first time to see Beverley scoring for 18 this season. I mean we know him as a great defender and not a scorer, but he stepped up and got the victory.

I wonder why nobody is talking here about the Grizzlies-Warriors match-up where Poole put the game winning shot.

He is the reason why Curry got ejected because of his early shot with more than 10 seconds remaining, but on the other hand, he is also the reason why the Grizzlies are now on a 4 game losing streak. Dynasty?? Dynasty in their dreams.

The return of Brandon Ingram is not enough to end the Pelicans' losing streak. Ingram seems lost and is still to find his rhythm after his long injury. The Pelicans tried to control the game but things changed when the Timberwolves gained momentum in the 3rd quarter and maintained it until the end. Another huge number came from Anthony Edwards with 37 points.

This is the 3rd straight 30+ points by Edwards. Hopefully, he can bring the same momentum when Ja Morant and the Grizzlies visit Minnesota in their next game. Also today, the Grizzlies lost a wild game against GSW. That's the 4th straight loss suffered by the Grizzlies yet they are still looking strong at top 2 in the west.  

Maybe if the Pelicans limit Ingram touching the ball and just focused the offense more on CJ or made Valanciunas and other players as better offensive options, they could've made that game close or even a win. 

We'll see if Ingram performs better in their next game and stop the bleeding. Their next game will be against the visiting Wizards. Still, a winnable game for the Pelicans since they are at home but the Wizards are also on a 4 game-winning streak. We might see good odds here for the visiting Wizards.

Yes, I do agree, they are a dynasty that time, together with the Lakers in that era, with Kobe and Shaq and then Coach Pop has Duncan, Manu and Parker. And I guess that's why it take time for the Spurs to rebuild because it's hard to find that kind of talent in the NBA right now, better yet to have them in 1 team.

Anyone see the Memphis vs GSW, Steph thrown out of the game because he was frustrated with Jordan Poole not giving him the ball and then Poole just throw that long 3. But Jordan was able to make up for it when he score the go ahead basket with Donte DiVincenzo high basketball IQ pass. They really got their money's worth with the acquisition of DiVincenzo this year.

I check the boxscore of this game, I saw how the Lakers were able to spread their points, Lebron does not have to score 30 points or more now because Davis is back and he can contribute good numbers consistently. This game, Lebron only scored 20 points, way below from his contributions in the past games without Davis.

They are unpredictable now and they have the advantage inside because Davis is a dominant big man, he can score inside and outside. Lebron can focus on distributing the ball to an open man, and he can also continue playing like what he did in the past few games if he wants, thing is, the pressure is not so big for him now that Davis has returned.

Their next game against Boston will be tough and this will determine how they will gonna be in the remaining games of this season because if they cannot get through against the Celtics, then they will gonna be struggling to get to the number 10th spot which will gonna play the play-in tournament. At least they need to try to get to that spot because if they are lucky, they can enter the NBA playoff this season. But as we can see, they're not really improving their rank and for the past 3 months, they can't seem to find the right rhythms to get out of number 12-13 spots.
