Durant's stats together with Phoenix Suns is good and that's why they can't just sweep them but with Jazz, it's possible that they're going to win against them.
Anyway, I believe in Lakers and that's why it's possible that they'll have some great ending on this season after being on the drowning status that we've all witnessed.

Well, can't disagree on that because that's a fact. But still, that hope that's been set from them is hitting what fans and the bandwagons are thinking of.
It's true that they might not even to get to fulfill the playoffs but if it's a longer series, unexpected things might come. And from there, we all know that both of them are injury prone and that's why you've said it right.

Well, that's the best position AR15 could be. He ain't a good piece to be at the starting 5, but a more effective piece in the 2nd unit. The Lakers actually have a good supporting cast, Hamm just only need to execute a perfect rotation. He needs to learn when to pull out an ice cold player and when to fill in a more necessary pieces to help the team in both ends of the floor.
However, the chances for the lakers to win it all in the Western conference this year is way below .500 lol.

Only AD is performing very well for me, he even become player of the week because he average 30++ points. LBJ is different when he comes back, he take is slow in the first two quarters, maybe he wants to involved the team. Austin Reaves is also pushing himself every game.

But they still have the chance, they just need to be very consistent in the remaining games to get at least in the play-in.

However, it will be tough if they go against a team like Nuggets in the first round. Denver is complete now and they don't know someone to guard Jokic.

I'll wait until these two matches end and let's see from there. They've proved themselves coming from the lowest of their standing up to this and that won't be just enough for them to underperform when they're already there but this is basketball, the ball is round and with everything expected and unexpected can be seen and exist at the same time.
Needless to say, I'll wish them all the best and they have to beat first Phoenix and this is where the debate and thoughts are mixing up because it seems that they can't.

Well, I guess they don't want to insert him into the rotation yet as he will need more practice again to get used to their plays. I was hoping he could help out for the Warriors to win their last 2 games but I think Steve Kerr can manage to win it using his main core and the bench for now. Their lack of defense seems to fade away after GP2 came back. They have more energy and it showed in their game against the Thunder.
Their next stop is in Sacramento battling with the Kings, I have a feeling Mike Brown will give this game away. It's also a good strategy to avoid them in the first round. Put the Warriors at number 5 to battle against the Suns. Then Kings could play against the injured Clippers, Lakers, or Pelicans.

Be careful with your bets guys, check the roster first. Some teams are already resting their stars like the Cavaliers playing right now.

Looks like you made the right decision here as OKC is already leading the game with a double-digit lead. And knowing that the Jazz had missed some of their starters, I think it will be hard for the home team to come back. Of course, OKC will ensure that they get the win as they need to be in the play-in and eliminate Dallas in the ranking competition.

I just caught the tail end of the game between the Spurs vs Portland. San Antonio has a huge 13-0 round late in the game and take the lead from the Trailblazers. And they just hold on that lead, 4 players with 20 plus or more for the Spurs and then Tre Jones, continuing his good stats, with 18 points and 10 assists.

Heat winning against the Sixers, but then again, as I check the minutes of Joel Embiid, he just played 30 minutes and Harden 28 minutes, so maybe they just decided to just let this game be taken away from them by the Miami Heat and not risk of injuries from both of their star players.

Ok, yeah they are tied with the OKC Thunder right now, but OKC has a game tonight against the Jazz and so far they are leading already and I might say that their chances to win are very high.

And if they win, the obviously, they could be in the better position against the Mavs, and even if they ended up with the same W/L column, as you have said OKC has the tie breaker because of the strength of 2-1 win they have against the Mavs.

My guess is that Dallas will make it easy for OKC and already lose the first of their last 2 remaining games against the Bulls.

They are so inconsistent, this would not be a surprise. And even if they win they still have to beat San Antonio in their last game as well. I know the Spurs are a terrible team but wouldn't it be funny if they actually have a chance for the playins and all they have to do is beating the Spurs in the Texas derby and they lose against a team of bench warmers and young guys. That would be hilarious.

It's a forgettable season for Dallas and they have to face the facts that they totally messed up their roster yet again.

Now Kyrie is reported to "test the market", yet sources say he just does this to squeeze out every penny out of the Mavs. He could get up to 272 million for 5 years whil from any other teams he could "only" get 201 million for 4 years.

I don't understand why team would pay this guy who has some mental issues, is super disloyal and in the past years has always been a trouble maker, that much money. After 1 year it would be considered "the worst contract in the league" , just like John Wall, Russell Westbrock and others.
