There are many players that have pressure on them entering this year’s NBA playoffs, but none have put more pressure on themselves than James Harden. He hasn’t captured the one thing that matters the most: a championship.
On Wednesday evening, the Staples Center will play host to their first must-win game in a while with the seventh-seeded Los Angeles Lakers welcoming the eighth-seeded Golden State Warriors to town.
For the second year in a row, the Milwaukee Bucks and Miami Heat will square off in a playoff series. Once again, it is the Heat who are trying to upset the Bucks. Last year, the Heat shocked the NBA world with their 4-1 series win over the top seed Bucks.
After a surprising run to the NBA Finals last season, the future was looking very bright for the Miami Heat. However, after a huge playoff run, the Heat looked nothing like the team they were last season.
For the second consecutive season, the Dallas Mavericks and Los Angeles Clippers will meet in the first round of the Western Conference playoffs. The Clippers won the 2020 playoff series 4-2 against a shorthanded Mavericks team.
The Atlanta Hawks for the first time since 2017 made the playoffs. Meanwhile, The New York Knicks broke the third-longest active streak of years that a franchise had missed the playoffs.
With the NBA regular season concluded, Nikola Jokic is the consensus MVP, and he certainly has a convincing case. However, given the incredible season that Steph Curry has presented, a case for his own MVP candidacy must be made.
Night two of the NBA Play-In tournament features a pair of Western Conference matchups. Plenty of star power will be on display, especially in the second game of the ESPN doubleheader.
Predicting the All-NBA teams is always a daunting task but this season the field is larger than ever before. Selecting only six guards for All-NBA honors seems unfair with all the quality play we are getting from the position.
With the NBA regular season now in the books, all eyes turn to the play-in games. In the Eastern Conference, we have the Boston Celtics going up against the Washington Wizards and the Charlotte Hornets against the Indiana Pacers.
Saturday’s matchup may have been a first-round preview of the NBA playoffs. The Miami Heat entered the game without their best player in Jimmy Butler. Without Butler, it ended up being an even tougher task.
The 2020-2021 NBA regular season is about to end and it’s time to see if teams are experiencing drafter’s remorse. What is drafter’s remorse? It’s the mental anxiety or regret that a team will feel after drafting a player. Did the team make the right choice? Was the next player taken a better option?
