The All Star break just ended yesterday with some huge games. First off we started with the Orlando Magic and the Cleveland Cavilers. This was a pretty solid game with the Cavs keeping it close as they were within 10 points for the entirety of the game. My personal favorite game I watched last night was the Lakers and Warriors game. It wasn’t the closest game as the Warriors won by 18 points. But there were many exciting moments with the AD and Kuminga match up. The 21 year old Kuminga was able to put up a solid 18 points with five rebounds and nine assists.
Jokic is also back pulling off a masterclass last night against the Wizards. Jokic put up 21 points 19 rebounds and 15 assists all while being 10 for 10 from FG. This is absolutely insane as he had a triple double while going 100 percent on shooting. With this triple double against the Wizards. Jokic has now put up a triple double against every single team in the NBA. There has been only two other players in NBA history to do this Russel Westbrook who was the triple double goat and Lebron James, the actual Goat. I think that Jokic will go down as one of if not the greatest player to ever play basketball. He is at a pretty prime age of 29 which means he still has a good amount of years left in him as Lebron is in fact 39. I think the only reason he might not succeed in becoming the goat is because no body really knows if he actually likes basketball. My prediction is that Jokic retires at 35 to race his horses in Serbia.
Another very solid game last night was the Suns vs Mavs. The Suns came out extremely hot with the first points being scored by KD then a three pointer from Devin Booker and and another 3-pointer coming from Grayson Allen to put the Suns up eight very early. Luka was able to start finding some luck bringing the Mavs closer and closer to the Suns. Luka was eating away against the Suns all game as he put up 41 points 9 rebounds and 11 assists. Devin Booker also had a very solid game putting up 35 points, five rebounds and eight assists. Even though they were down very early on the game the Mavs were able to pull off the 123-113 victory.
The Celtics bulls game was also a very good game. There were many solid numbers put up by players on both teams. Starting off with Jayson Tatum putting up 25 points, seven rebounds and five assists. Now I’m not a gambling man but if I were I would put all my money on Jayson Tatum to go over in points as he is a very consistent shooter who always seems to his his over. Derrick White also had a very solid game putting up 28 points 3 rebounds and 5 assists. Another consistent scorer Jaylen Brown put up 21 points 5 rebounds and 5 assists. Even though Jaylen Brown is a very good player he 100 percent should not have been in the dunk contest.
