New Album & The Beginning of Basketball Season

[christoph]

Lakers lead by 16 at the half

Davis is playing well.

LeBron was actually called for traveling in the first period. I don't ever remember him being called for traveling

 

[christoph]

Lakers height under the boards on both sides of the court was a big factor in them getting the win

Just like Mike and Phil said

 

[jadis]

The momentum would definitely be with the Raptors, then

Sad to say, I am feeling that the momentum has swung to the Raptors as they move to win 4 straight over the C's after being down 0-2 as they did last year to the Bucks. As the league has evolved into a long 3 point shooting contest, Raptors in game 4 hit 17 treys to the C's 10 only, the bench becomes a very important factor, and the C's has no bench, thanks to Danny.

Neither do I. But he got called for traveling last night, he must have taken 10 steps bec in the past 8 steps was his all time 'best'. And notice that LeBron ALWAYS have both hands/palms out at the refs if there is a call against him. He doesn't do any infraction in this sport, that is his message to the refs, and somehow, the refs get 'conditioned' by it. He only pads up his + stat sheet. Throw the minuses.

Just tuned in - Celtics and Raptors tip in a few minutes

 

[WLVCA]

Celtics on top so far. Looking good.

Have to say I like Stan van Gundy on TNT as a color commentator

 

[Steve Williams]

I do too. Both brothers are under the bubble commentating

For the Celtics, looking good and winning by 1 points are two different things.

 

[Steve Williams]

How the tides of fortune turn so quick

Boston is not only back on its game but playing like a real winner

62-35 end of first half

 

[WLVCA]

Good thing I don't bet on the NBA. These games are totally unpredictable, at least for me.

 

[Steve Williams]

Raptors got an ass kicking today as the Celts played about as good a game as I've seen under the bubble

Final Celts 111-89

 

[Steve Williams]

Guess who is back in the bubble (but in quarantine Phil)

Things could look really good with him back

 

[Steve Williams]

A Celtics-Heat East final is not something I have even considered.....until now

Yes, our Captain America look-alike is back in the bubble, hopefully he gets to play sometime in the future. I think Stan VG pointed out that the C's are missing his 17ppg on 50% shooting (that is a stat that Hayward worked hard on and I have to commend him on that) but still found the some guys to make the win. So they need 1 more win to advance. I'm feeling the 2 J's are eager to get back to the ECF as they had a couple of years ago.

 

[Steve Williams]

Well its looking better that they will advance to the Conference finals so his presence could be huge

 

[jadis]

A Celtics-Heat East final is not something I have even considered.....until now

Neither did I in terms of probability, but as I mentioned, I always feared the Bucks if the C's have to go against them as the C's had no answer to Giannis and Lopez in the past. And if it will come to fruition, C's now have to fear Butler, Bam, Dragon, and 2 ex-Celtics in Crowder and Olynyk.

Start of Clipps game

I hope the Nuggs keep it competitive like last game

 

[Steve Williams]

End of 1st period

Close game

33-32 Clipps by 1

Each team shooting well.

Jokic and PG13 lead for each team

 

[Steve Williams]

Great game. Denver leads by 10 with 4:58 left in the half

 

[WLVCA]

Clippers look sloppy....again.
