NBA 2018/19

RONDOOOO WOW!! WHAT A WIN IN BOSTON AFTER ALL THOSE TRADE RUMOURS. SEASON SHIFTING I HOPE

Saw a completely opposite Lakers team compared to the other day in Indiana. Came back from 18 down, showed heart played well and got a huge win. Guess trade rumours being out of the picture will get us going again. Well I hope. Also big up Indiana for winning over LAC, helps us massively that

Another classic TNT Thursday game this season. Amazing

Spurs-Blazers delivering aswell. 21 pt lead got cut to fast. Gonna be an entertaining 4th

Rondo game winner in Boston as a laker. Oh the irony

LeBron James looked very good tonight and completely outplayed Kyrie Irving

Westbrook is on a crazy tear of triple doubles right now

Jaren Jackson JR is a special talent

Spurs have looked rough on this rodeo road trip so far

Rodney Hood is a good addition to Portland

Yeah i've noticed that too, HOU-GSW, TOR-GSW, LAL-OKC, OKC-SA and now this game. TNT games delivering this season big time

Congrats on the solid victory buddy. Seems that at least Lakers are still fighting and trying on the last PO spot. Besides LAC lost this night they are also traded their best player so far this season so it helps a lot for Lakers as well.

As long as the Kings don't ruin the plans, the Lakers should make it, and probably even catch Spurs too as our schedule easens up after the 76ers game. A lot of the season left to make a solid push

Nuggets-Sixers is gonna be a BATTLE tonight. Embiid vs Jokic should be very entertaining, didn't see that the first time they faced so I'm excited for to see them go at it the first time this season tonight

NBA 2018-19 – Philadelphia 76ers vs Denver Nuggets Betting Preview



Two young elite teams face off in Philadelphia as the new look 76ers host 2nd seeded in the west, the dangerous Denver Nuggets!

Philadelphia 76ers

Well it’s been eventful in Philadelphia since their last loss to Toronto as they’ve made some serious moves which could arguably elevate them as top contenders in the East! The 76ers top new addition Tobias Harris who averages 20 ppg on extremely good efficiency got 76ers fans believing that he might be the final piece of the puzzle and the new big 4 of Simmons, Embiid, Butler and Harris is expected to prove to be a serious force in Philadelphia and we may get to see the big 4 play tonight if nobody sits out! 76ers biggest worry right now is a lack of depth off the bench but additions of Marjanovic, Mike Scott, Jonathon Simmons and James Ennis should definitely help them. Philly continue to play through their most brutal part of the schedule in which they’re so far 5-4 doing relatively well. 76ers lost to Denver earlier this season but Butler and Embiid were both out and Tobias Harris was not apart of the team so this will be a completely different Philly team that Denver will see. 76ers are 21-6 at Home this season which is one of the best home records in the league. Biggest worry entering tonight is Joel Embiid is listed as questionable to play, after missing the 1st match up against Denver, it’d be very disappointing if he was out again for the Nikola Jokic match up.

Joel Embiid WILL play tonight against Denver

Bobby Portis got 16 pts on 6/6 shooting 5 minutes into his Wizards career. Talk about making a first impression 😲

So happy to see Caris LeVert back after that gruesome injury, he gonna ball out and be so huge for Brooklyn for the rest of the season

Took Dennis Smith 3 games to get his first 30 pt career game on the Knicks.

Impressed how 76ers closed the game with this new starting unit. They showed flashed of lack of chemistry but got there in the end. Good win for em

Bulls beating Brooklyn on the road is very surprising. LaVine and Lauri really balled out though

Sixers quietly got a big 5. Everyone focused on Ben Tobias Embiid Butler but Redick is legit man, scores at such high rate. That starting 5 is the best after GSW on paper
