Just like you I also don't understand the In-Season Tournament, but sure in time it will sink in eventually, right now I am still waiting the end if this Season's Tournament can make a big impact on the standings and if the team can enter the play-offs,

Well that Golden State Warriors VS Sacramento Kings match is really something Chris Paul for sure can eventually get injured and this is the worst time to get injured for sure for some reason after this game Chris Paul was not the only Warrior who got injured because in the injury list, we got Andrew Wiggins with a finger injury, Usman Garuba also has a finger injury Gary Payton II with a calf injury, and Chris Paul with a lower leg injury that is 3 main key players for the Warriors, Andrew Wiggins, Usman Garuba, and Chris Paul will be out until at least Dec 2, and Gary Payton II has the worst injury that could be out until at least Jan 2,


Right now TS has already added something in the Poll and as you have suggested he added Timberwolves to the list sure it will get updated until the play-offs as for sure we are still in the midst of the season and it is just getting warm-up for most teams for sure I am really looking forward for some updated with the In-Season Tournament, for sure many fans are excited about it, and some were baffled by it,


The Philadelphia 76ers badly need Joel Embiid, as he is the bread and butter for the team along with Tyrese Maxey, averaging great with 50 points against the Pacers on November 13 game, Tobias Harris, with a max of 43 points in the games against Cleaveland on November 22 game, for sure in addition of Joel Embiid the Philadelphia 76ers this season is a strong different team for sure,

This Pistons can't even beat Wizards, tonight I expect another loss against Knicks. The squad has good players but there is no team, zero chemistry, no leader. I guess it's time to use some of these pieces for trades and build a team. We've waited long enough. Even if they tank to the bottom, they still can't get first pick so there's no reason to chase draft picks anymore.

Warriors are back!

Currently enjoying a huge lead in the first half against the clippers. They need this one as in the past games, they tend to fold in the 2nd half, so this time, no more messing around, they should continue their good shooting to prove to the fans that not only they can beat Spurs ( a bad team) on their home court but can also beat the Clippers who recently beat the Kings who put a spear on the Warriors heart with the big comeback win.

They tried to tank last season. Tried to tank just to get that generational player in Wembanyama, but they just got unlucky and went all the way down to the 5th spot.
Well, they still got a good player in Ausar Thompson. It's just that the whole management is just a mess. You've said already that there are no zero chemistry around them even though they already got a good coach in Monty Williams. I don't know if it's the management, or the players, or the environment around the whole team or whatever it is, they're still one of the worst teams in the league, and it has been like that for years already.

Pistons fans must be disappointed on how their team is performing for the last 2-3 years or even more. What they will tank again hoping to get another good player? The longest losing streak in NBA history is 28 games by the Sixers. They're halfway on it already. The Pistons and the Spurs are now battling for most consecutive losses which is kind of funny.

I went for the Celtics with this one.

They're one of the best teams right now. One of the best defensive and offensive teams currently. The acqusition of Jrue Holiday really covered up their lack of defense since they traded their 2 best players in Smart, and Williams. Porzingis is already playing his best career since he's on the Knicks. I just hope that they will also play like this when they clinch into the playoffs. They're just a few wins away from winning the title in the last few years.

Friday is bringing us a couple of great matchups we can watch on ESPN. The first game is likely to be the Eastern Conference Finals matchup this year with the Boston Celtics facing the Philadelphia 76ers. Then the late game could very well end up being the Western Conference Finals matchup this year between the Phoenix Suns and Denver Nuggets.

Yes, it was Klay Thompson who really did the damage when Curry is sitting. They build a good lead early and just hold on it, this kid Podziemski was impressive and so are the rest of the supporting cast.

And a needed win for the Warriors to get back their confidence after that heart wrenching lost from the Sacramento Kings.

The Spurs continue with their struggle, losing to the Hawks in a very close game.

In the previous game, they lost the match because Curry missed a shot in the last second, but in this game, he contributed 26 points to the team. I think the situation of the team is still not good, they do not play harmoniously with each other and if they are not on their lucky days, they cannot win the match. Curry cannot meet the expectations this year, something must change in the team

It happens from time to time in the NBA.
My point is that if a team has a rebuilding phase or has lost a few key players due to injuries, it's expected that such a team will be an underdog and won't be able to compete with other teams. If I'm not mistaken, the record for the longest losing streak belongs to the 76ers, as they lost 28 games in a row in the 13-14 season. So the fact that the Pistons have 2 wins with 17 losses is still not the worst result.


Nets fans' reaction to the team's poor performance in the 08/09 season.

Oklahoma City Thunder performed really well. In the second quarter, they performed better than anyone expected. I never thought that they were going to make such a big difference in one quarter that it will be really hard for their opponent to overcome. But that happened. They performed so well in the second quarter that it was almost impossible for the Lakers to make a comeback. But it was a good performance from Oklahoma, and they deserve credit for that.

Spurs lost a very close match against Hawks. They lost by only two points which was very unfortunate, to be honest. Only if they could play a little better in the last quarter.

No, the Clippers are just bad.  Coach Kerr used 4 small guards and yet they cannot even score in the paint. 
Commentators still use the "no chemistry" card up until now but not for me. When stars are playing together, they are supposed to not "need" that.
And they are not young anymore, they are veterans and some of them have played with each other. Westbrook with Harden, George with Westbrook, it's just Kawhi who needs chemistry with them.
Warriors beat them because the Clippers cannot play like a team. They are good at playing isolation games but against a team like the Warriors who is playing like they are brothers for a long time, it won't work.
Coach Lue must have been hearing a lot of bad things from the Clippers management right now. Sure, they won against the Kings but that team also had a hard time winning against the Warriors without some of their core players.
The worst thing is the Warriors played without CP3, Wiggins, and GP3 and still beat the Clippers.
