This Was The WORST Night Of The NBA Season…



This Was The WORST Night Of The NBA Season…

This was the worst day of the NBA season and I suffered through it so you don’t have to let me explain starting off with the most highly anticipated matchup of the day Milwaukee vers Boston was a TNT game and everyone was hyped about it that is until the game itself started

And the bugs blitzed the Celtics right out of the gate Milwaukee went on a 25 run in just 6 minutes to essentially end the game even before halftime disastrous start for Boston looking every bit the team that one an overtime game last night poris hits another and Joe moua a

Desperation time out now credit to them and you could see Giannis was fired up for this one after losing the first matchup earlier in the season and he brought the intensity for this game right from tip off in traffic just moves cornette out of the way but you could

Also see the Celtics were a step slower a bit lack aicle even almost as if if they weren’t ready for this game they did come to Milwaukee on a backto back after a tough overtime win the previous night against Minnesota so I’m not sure if that played a role but this was

Embarrassing nonetheless the 35-point deficit at halftime was so bad that Joe Mazula did not even play the starters in the second and TNT made a decision in the middle of the game to switch the broadcast to the Knicks and the Mavs which at the time was just slightly less

Terrible so this game is out of hand obviously 100 to 62 is the score in Milwaukee and Oklahoma City by the way is up 36 at the half so we’re not going there uh so we’ll try the Knicks and the Mavs and it’s a a 4728 game but it’s

Closer than what’s going on in the main streets let me actually save this game for last because believe it or not it was the most interesting one of the night you heard EJ say how bad things were in OKC and as crazy as it sounds by

The end it got two times worse the Thunder had a field day against Portland just look at these stats SGA shot 11 for 15 that’s 73% Chad hongren was 9 for 13 69% then Jaylen Williams went 9 for 10 and giddy was a perfect five for five

From the field unbelievable so by the end this was a 62-point win for Oklahoma 62 wow I had hopes that maybe the Lakers and Suns would save the day in the second game of the TNT double header but Devin Booker came out absolutely on fire with 16 points in the first quarter

Hitting all types of shots it’s Booker against Christie the shot and the shot the Lakers actually shot the ball well at the start 52 1.2% from the field in that first quarter but they had five turnovers which Phoenix of course punished so this was already a double digigit lead and turning the ball

Over nine times by halftime and giving up nine offensive rebounds is a recipe for disaster and you could even say that the Lakers were lucky to only be down by 14 at the break but then came the third quarter and trying to take some information Away by Durant the foot race for

Davis going right back at the hot hand Bradley Bill suns are shooting 50% a fake and a spinner see that’s vintage that’s classic moves here by Bradley Bill a 16-2 run in 3 and 1/2 minutes but ballon the lead to 28 and that’s pretty much all there was to it in this game

Yet another blowout look a game between the Cavs and the Nets and Paris honestly deserves only a quick recap Donovan Mitchell was blistering hot scoring 45 points on 50% shooting Cleveland got off to a 27-point lead because of course they did it was that type of day in the

League by the end however Brooklyn made it a decent 9-point loss okay let’s now go to the most interesting game of the bunch a 20o blowout in the fourth quarter wait what yeah my Nicks got destroyed throughout the entire game by Kyrie who finished with 44 points but

Just watch what happens by Kyrie Rand bulldozes his way to the rim counted on a foul as he answers Brunson looks to push Brunson side step Euro Step lamp is good the Knicks are slowly but surely cutting into this lead however it’s still a 10-point game with 245 to go but

Then Randle Drive s side step back to divon chenzo Brunson Corner three bang Jaylen Brunson from downtown it’s a five-point game runs in the rebound throws it ahead to divon chenzo deep back to Randall Randall inside harste look at the henzo three-pointer bang Dante Deon chenzo makes it a one-point

Game oh my God we’re back let’s go Nicks all we got to do now is just get one stop but little did I I know that what would follow is a pure chaos spins kicks it out the corner Josh Green won’t go rebound de chanzo back to Hardaway side

Of the backboard pal gets it back to Hardway again a three pter in and out no good rebound deflected and another possession why would Hardway keep shooting it shot it off the side of the glass he should not have shoted and he could took another one Irving on the drive splits

The defense Josh Green is open three punter is good oh a huge shot two clutch offensive rebounds for Dallas are you kidding me man this was tough I love the effort from this team though to even come back in this game plus this was the only exciting moment in the worst NBA

Day of the season this was the complete opposite from yesterday where I showed you a bunch of wild Thriller endings in overtime you got to check out this video right here talk to in the next one peace out

This was the worst day of the NBA season, and I suffered through it so you don’t have to. Let me explain.
Let’s start with the most highly anticipated matchup of the day. Milwaukee vs Boston was a TNT game and everyone was hyped about it. That is, until the game started and the Bucks blitzed the Celtics right out of the gate.
Milwaukee went on a 25-0 run in just 6 minutes to essentially end the game even before half time.
Now, credit to them, and you could see Giannis was fired up for this game, after losing the first matchup earlier in the season, and he brought the intensity for this one right from tip off.
But you could also see the Celtics were a step slower, a bit lackadaisical even- almost as if they weren’t ready for this game.
They did come to Milwaukee on a back to back after a tough overtime win the previous night against Minnesota, so I’m not sure if that played a role, but this was embarrassing nonetheless.
The 35 point deficit at half time was so bad that Joe Mazzula did not even play the starters in the second.
And TNT made a decision in the middle of this game to switch the broadcast to the Knicks and the Mavs, which at the time was just slightly less terrible.
Let me actually save this game for last because believe it or not it was the most interesting one of the night.
You heard EJ say how bad things were in OKC. And as crazy as it sounds, by the end it got 2 times worse.
The Thunder had a field day against Portland, just look at these stats:
SGA shot 11 for 15 that’s 73%, Chet Holmgren was 9 for 13, 69%, Jaylen Williams went 9 for 10 and Giddey was a perfect 5 for 5 from the field. Unbelievable.
So, by the end this was a 62 point win for Oklahoma. 62. Wooow.
I had hopes that maybe the Lakers and Suns would save the day in the second game of the TNT doubleheader,
but Devin Booker came out absolutely on fire with 16 points in the first quarter hitting all types of shots.
The Lakers actually shot the ball well at the start, 52 and a half percent from the field in that first quarter but they had 5 turnovers which Phoenix of course punished. So this was already a double digit lead.
Turning the ball over 9 times by halftime, and giving up 9 offensive rebounds is a recipe for disaster, and you could even say that the Lakers were lucky to only be down by 14 at the break.
But then came the third quarter and…
A 16-2 run in 3 and a half minutes ballooned the lead to 28 and that’s pretty much all there was to it in this game. Yet another blowout.
A game between the Cavs and the Nets in Paris deserves only a quick recap honestly.
Donovan Mitchell was blistering hot scoring 45 points on 50% shooting. Cleveland got off to a 27 point lead, because of course they did it, was that type of day in the league. By the end however Brooklyn made it a decent 9 point loss.
Ok, let’s now go to the most interesting game of the bunch. A 20 point blowout in the fourth quarter. Wait what?!
Yeah my Knicks got destroyed throughout the entire game by Kyrie who finished with 44 points.
But just watch what happens.
The Knicks are slowly but surely cutting into this lead, however it’s still a 10 point game with 2:45 to go. But then…
Oh my god we’re back, let’s go Knicks! All we gotta do now is just get 1 stop.
Little did I know that what would follow is pure chaos.
Are you kidding me?! Maaan this was tough. I love the effort from this team tho, to even come back in this game. Plus, this was the only exciting moment in the worst NBA day of the season.
This was the complete opposite from yesterday where I showed you a bunch of wild thriller endings in overtime. You gotta check out this video right here. Talk to you in the next one. Peace out.

  1. It was an amazing game, watching the Bucks answering Giannis cry for getting their ducks in a row, no excuses for Boston, strip clubs are more likely to be guilty of their performance than the flight, the top players are paid in a year more than what I make in 5 just for playing hoops.

  2. You need less games…
    If every game matters they will try harder…
    It's normal when u have 82 games plus playoffs not to give 100% in regular.

  3. I personally feel like all the NBA really needs to do is get rid of the defensive 3 seconds call, and bring back hand checking. The pace of the game today is super fast, and I doubt they are going to relax the offensive rules anytime soon, so you’re gonna have a lot of big scoring games. Allowing guys to play free safety, and getting more physical on the defensive end would be a good move. Physicality also turns up in the playoffs, so some closely contested defensive battles in the postseason would be a lot of fun to watch.

  4. You're new to these shores, aren't you? From now on its downhill all the way, mate. Everybody is either thinking of the playoffs or the draft.

  5. Man that 3rd quarter for the Lakers was brutal. Nobody had any energy no ones body language was good. The whole team looked like they didn’t wanna be there

  6. The NBA is becoming less interesting. Defence is rubbish, everyone is shooting 3pointers like heavy rain.

  7. Crazy how fast the celtics and Lakers took out their starters so early no fight at all..the knicks got down 20 and stayed and fought back to 1pt game. No heart anymore..

  8. thx for confirming that i’m justified in stepping off from the NBA for a few seasons. all the bette runtime my Raptors reload 😅

  9. don’t use the back 2 back as an excuse. last year the bucks got blown out by the celtics on a back 2 back and no one cared and said the bucks were horrible. don’t give the celtics that excuse, they got destroyed and their stars didn’t show up. if you’re on the court you better be giving 100% even on a back 2 back, if you won’t then just don’t play

  10. should there be a rule to replace intentional fouls for time? i have seen a lot of games go on for a lot longer because the teams keep fouling until the last second. it seems dangerous to allow players to foul each other as part of strat and most refs blow the whistle asap when in this situation for things that are not really fouls sometimes. Can we fix this in 2024?

  11. The Lakers forgot that even if the NBA is rigging the game in their favor, they still need to act like they're playing.

  12. Knick game was rigged. Terrible officiating. That female ref had it out for them. Killing any momentum in qts 1-3. She should never be allowed to ref a Knick game ever again.

  13. Worst game i've actually ever seen was the lakers vs raptors a couple days ago that game needs to be investigated scottie got fouled at least 8 times woth no call and the 4th quarter of that game was the most rigged things I've seen it was worst than the WWE and if you think im just a raptors fan no im a nuggets fan

  14. NBA is fake league, there is no real competition, Refs ref for the stars, there is no relegation so no real consequences. NBA is all entertainment, no sports, NBA is the new WWE.

  15. NBA players are getting paid too much. Everyone has a full belly so there’s no hunger to compete and win on a nightly basis.

  16. Corrupt officials
    Poor officiating
    Rules that prevent ANY defence whatsoever
    League cantered around super stars and super teams with some teams having little to no talent
    The NBA is getting worse and worse (I’ll probably never stop watching unfortunately haha)
