2026-2027 NBA Season.

I'm not happy about Dalton Knecht going to the Sixers. He will be riding the bench most of the year in my honest opinion. Hope I'm wrong
but that team doesn't fit him. It's obvious to most here but at least he is still in the league. Knecht should be a starter or one of the first players off the bench on many teams. He can score inside or outside but the league doesn't like that with most of our guys.

On a brighter note. The Lakers will start Jake Lavia tonight so that means they will have 4 white guys starting! Also another off the bench. The Lakers haven't been this white since the 1960's. Great to see for the national audience with hollywood stars at the games. This can really
help to show how good our guys can play when they get a chance. Let's go Lakers!

They ended up starting 3 as a game time decision. Pressure from up above probably. Still great to see 3 white guys in the starting 5 for
the LA Lakers. They play 2 more off the bench. So 5 of their top 9 players are white guys. That's over half of the opening night lineup!

At the half they are leading the Warriors by a score of 66-52! Luka Doncic has 23 points at the half. He will going for his 3rd scoring title
of his career. He should be going for his 4th but lost a scoring title the last week of the season with Dallas.

Guys enjoy this while you can! Luka Doncic is the most exciting player in the NBA yet he has 0 MVP's. He needs a few championships and a few mvp's before his career is over. He is 27 year of age and a joy to watch!

Lakers ended up dominating the warriors. Luka drilled a buzzer beating half court shot and all but one of Kessler baskets were dunks. Fun to watch!!
 
Lakers winning was good, but I’m not surprised that cuck coach Reddick refused to start 4 Whites as he said he wouldn’t in his own words. So instead of LaRavia or Mamu they had to start some useless clown Matisse Thybulle who’s had 7 underwhelming seasons in the league. And Zaire Williams was also a surprise start over Quentin Grimes who’s honestly better. Based on how this chart looks now, you could easily argue that the best starting 5 would be all Whites.

For the Bucks Tyler Herro had
24 points,
2 rebounds,
9 assists,
4 TOS

9/21 shooting. Not his sharpest shooting night, but I like the assists.

Jacquez was even better with
22pts on 8/12 shooting
7 rebounds
2 assists
2 TOs

Jakucionis also looked great as backup PG.
15 pts 4/7 shooting
3 rebounds
3 assists
1 turnover

AJ Green made both of his 3pt attempts, chipped in 6.

Their Black big Men on the other hand, were babied by Anthony Davis. What the hell Myles Turner and Kelel Ware?!

It's great to see the Bucks finally have some white guys that are the true leaders of the team. Both in the starting lineup and
off the bench. All of these 3 guys are going to have a great season. I actually will watch a few Bucks Games sometimes now
because of this nice change. Maybe the Bucks should trade for Porzingis? Despite his many injuries, he is worth a look and the
Warriors don't want him anymore. He could be picked up easily by most teams.
 
Strong opening night for the Lakers over the Warriors 127-105
Luka 28 points 8 rebs 7 assist
Kessler 26 pts 9 rebs ...FGs 12 / 12 !
Reaves 23 points 6 assist

Sorry i missed game didn't even realize they were playing
Still in College Football mode New Mexico St beat Sam Houston

For good measure
Ty Jerome dropped 45 for the Grizzlies!

Cooper Flagg had 32
 
The Lakers look a bit better than tenth place in the West

Lakers Start 2-0 with Reaves and Kessler Leading Win Over Clippers

The Lakers improved to 2-0 by beating the crosstown Clippers 125-117 at Crypto.com Arena, with Austin Reaves scoring 28 points and dishing nine assists, and new center Walker Kessler adding 22 points, eight rebounds, and six blocks. Kessler, picked up from the Utah Jazz in the offseason...

Glad to see the Lakers prove the doubters wrong. Hopefully Luka and Kessler can stay healthy all season.

On the a negative note athletic 2-guards Sheppard, Kispert, Dick, and Grayson Allen are buried deep on the bench. All receiving 20 minutes or less the first two games. Has to be frustrating for these guys.

Reed Sheppard is the one that makes me the most angry. After that Gradey Dick and Corey Kispert. At least Grayson Allen had a chance
to start on and off for a few years and was a key contributor. REed Sheppard should be a starter without a doubt. He has proved his worth when he starts. I think Grayey Dick still can turn it around but not sure if the Clippers will give him that chance. I hate seeing out guys go
to teams where they are mostly all by themselves color wise. It rarely works out as the other players don't share the ball fairly the majority of the time. Just my opinion.

The Sheppard deal pisses me off as well. They signed a couple black guards in the off season so his minutes will be reduced. His black coach really jerks him around from game to game.
