It's way too early to predict anything. Lakers and Clippers are almost on new rosters and all they had was so practices and show off games without showing real strength. It will be very interesting to watch them way anyway

Portland Trail Blazers v/s Denver Nuggets

Denver Nuggets after standing 2nd in Western Conference last season will be looking forward to continuing their success. With Denver Nuggets being one of the least scoring but heavy on defence team last season, and on the other hand, Trail Blazers being one of the highest-scoring team with 114.7 average points last season, it'll be a great game to look out for. The Trail Blazers have the best backcourt in the league, and their additions will make them that much better. Portland will bring Kent Bazemore, Rodney Hood, and Pau Gasol off the bench along with Anfernee Simons who can prove out to be a good pick early this season. Portland will be jumping for the season opener, and they will edge out the Nuggets in a close game.

Pick : Trail Blazers : -1.5

L.A. Clippers v/s L.A. Lakers

Town rivals going to clash tonight. Clippers look much better than last season after signing former NBA champion Kawhi Leonard and trading with Oklahoma City for Paul George. Lou Williams would be feeling confident after a great performance last season. But talking about the games against Lakers, I don't see them being able to stop James and Davis and Lakers should come out with a victory in this one. If Clippers play Kuzma, then I am pretty sure Lakers would take the win pretty easily.

Pick :: L.A. Lakers : -3.5

How about CJ here? I think he already equal Lillard in terms of skills and he is more accurate than Lillard but I am happy these playing together have improved their Chemistry, usually stars wants to compete with each other but these 2 and making their team better.

It didnt matter much as toronto took them to the over and even had an overtime opener to just show they still have a good offensive team without kawhi.

They had won 6 season openers in the past so this will be number 7 and are dominant at home for these.
Surprising new orleans kept lonzo ball out the game until the final quarter.
Lakers are next and from what I was watching they were dominating the clippers early on in the quarter. But kawhi is really taking it to lebron.

Yes they did. The announcers were saying they were still emotional from the ring ceremony at the beginning of the game. Thats all it was.
Lakers are having a hard time with the clippers. They are just getting thrown around by their 3 pointers being their main arsenal.
Even bailey managed to get a three pointer and he isnt even known to do that.

I am going with the flow also, 2 games today the home team won so maybe the Sixers will win in this game.
The starters are all gonna play in their first game and Embid in his first game this season, I am expecting he will tally a double double.

Al Horford, Embid, and Tobias harris, they are the big 3 of the Sixers and they are a very tall line up.

You kinda called it right there, way too many people got caught up on the Lakers pre-season hype bandwagon. LeBron and AD combined for 2 pts in the 4th quarter isn't a good sign though. Well, it's the first game of the season...time to overreact. lol

Was there anyone who went with the Clippers?


Who's bailey?

Here are my picks for night two of the season which saw heavy favored lakers fall to the cyborg known as kawhi.

Brooklyn Nets & under 229.5
Dallas Mavericks & over 219.5
Charlotte Hornets - Chicago Bulls over 211.5

Jump on these if you like. From watching the preseason games of each of these teams and how they coordinate themselves with their new teammates it is good observations on how they will do in the regular season play.
