Speaking of the Hornets, they are one of those teams who just hover just outside the 6th and final play off spot along with the Knicks, Pacers and the Bulls. Despite the loss, they have a not so bad win ratio of 0.469 which if maintained will see them in the post season for 2021.Continue reading “NBA:WARRIORS VS HORNETS”

NBA:CLIPPERS VS NETS
The Nets impressed me despite flying under my radar most of this season. Off season trade from the Rockets James Harden was HERCULES with 37 points and 11 rebounds albeit with the help of more than average minutes on court, 41 minutes to be exact. Testament of the coach’s confidence in him. Fellow point guardContinue reading “NBA:CLIPPERS VS NETS”
NBA:CLIPPERS VS JAZZ
In basketball it is those moments that count. In this match when Patrick Beverly scored the lay up for the first points for the Clippers and mugged Donovan Mitchell of the ball to score score another those four points proved to be the difference in the Clippers’ victory 116-112. I have seen teams take itContinue reading “NBA:CLIPPERS VS JAZZ”
NBA:JAZZ VS 76ers
In this unofficial NBA championship match, the Jazz underlined their status as the team to beat in the post season. The East’s undisputed number one Philly took on the West’s top team at the moment Utah. After a dominant first quarter led by the irrepressible Ben Simmons(42 points),the Sixers came undone in the second. DonContinue reading “NBA:JAZZ VS 76ers”
NBA:LAKERS VS NUGGETS
Just finished watching a masterclass from Denver who deserved this victory against the defending champs. Quick off the blocks, Denver had a great start to the first quarter only to let LeBron and Co back into it . My play of the match was in that quarter. Schroeder’s lay up for the dunk by KingContinue reading “NBA:LAKERS VS NUGGETS”
NBA:JAZZ VS BUCKS
The second in the East met the first in the West here. The jazz are setting the standard for taking the game by the neck and seizing the initiative early. The Bucks led by Giannis Antetoukounmpo points contribution are a very dangerous side offensively. The Jazz had a clear game plan to match the offensiveContinue reading “NBA:JAZZ VS BUCKS”
NBA:LAKERS VS THUNDER
The Thunder would be gutted to have lost this one. They gave LeBron’s Lakers a good run for their money with impressive display by point guard Shai Golgeous-Alexander who out scored King James 29-28 with similar minutes played 42 and 43 respectively. LeBron was a colossus in defense with 14 rebounds but again he wasContinue reading “NBA:LAKERS VS THUNDER”
NBA:PACERS VS JAZZ
I just hope, I sincerely do that the Jazz carry this form to the playoffs. They have been superb especially Bognanovic. He contributed 18 points this match which is modest by his standards but it helped the Jazz pull through here. Instead it was Mitchell whose 27 points wad a game high. Utah still aheadContinue reading “NBA:PACERS VS JAZZ”
76ers Vs Trailblazers
Embiid’s 37 points couldn’t help the sixers avoid defeat at the hands of Portland. He was the only sixer to reach the 20s which shows why his team lost. Not enough points contribution. The Blazers had 4 players reach the 20s led by Trent Jr with 24. It is Philly’s 7th defeat of the regularContinue reading “76ers Vs Trailblazers”
NBA:PELICANS VS SUNS
Another high scoring match for Phoenix of which this time they end up on the losing side. New Orleans are the second worst team in the Western Conference but they didn’t show that last night. Williamson top scored for them with 28 points whilst Adams’s 13 rebounds was a game high.The fact that the highestContinue reading “NBA:PELICANS VS SUNS”
