NBA Star Index: Lonzo Ball’s taking pictures woes return; Ben Simmons’ stats are wild

Welcome again to our NBA Star Energy Index — a weekly gauge of the gamers who’re most controlling the excitement across the league. Reminder: Inclusion on this checklist is not essentially a great factor. It merely implies that you are capturing the NBA world’s consideration. Additionally, this isn’t a rating. The gamers listed are in no explicit order because it pertains to the excitement they’re producing. This column will run each week for the remainder of the season. 

There may be one motive, and one motive solely, that we’re terrified to choose any workforce within the East aside from the Cavaliers to go to the Finals. That motive is LeBron James. On Wednesday, he single-handedly destroyed the “finest workforce within the East” when he hung 35 factors, 17 assists and 0 turnovers on the Raptors in an announcement Cavs win. 

Extra NBA information

Once more: 35 factors, 17 assists, and ZERO turnovers. 

The man scored or assisted on 80 — EIGHTY! — freaking factors. 

That clip you simply watched was LeBron’s remaining help of the evening — a move to a wide-open Kevin Love for a dagger 3 — and it sealed the game. As with everything, he makes that pass look easy. It isn’t. He gets into the lane, knows exactly where everyone is on the floor, delivers the pass with force and precision with a mere flick of the wrist. Basketball is just so easy for this guy. 

But back to the bigger question on everyone’s mind: Can LeBron actually drag this otherwise pretty pedestrian Cavs team to the Finals? Well he just took down the Raptors without teammates Rodney Hood, Cedi Osman or Larry Nance Jr. even in uniform. The Raptors were game. It’s not a knock on them. It’s just … well .. you know, the best player in the world thing. It’s hard to beat that guy unless you’re the Warriors. 

I will say, the LeBron factor has been somewhat overcooked. Yes, he’s been to seven straight Finals, but he’s also had the best team in the East, by a long shot, every one of those years. There is actually only one season of evidence that LeBron can drag a subpar team the Finals. He did it in 2007, when the Cavs played Larry Hughes and Boobie Gibson over 53 minutes a night and were swept by the Spurs. Otherwise, LeBron goes to the Finals because he has the best team, and when he hasn’t had the best team — like in, say, 2008, 2009 and 2010 — he hasn’t gone to the Finals. 

So there is evidence that for all his greatness, when LeBron doesn’t clearly have the best team, he’s not enough to get past really good Eastern teams on his own. Personally, I think that will be the case again this year. I’m still picking Toronto. But I’d be lying if I said I was in any way confident in that prediction after watching LeBron Wednesday night. 

Houston ended the Blazers’ 13-game win streak with a 115-111 win in Portland on Tuesday, and Harden was, you guessed it, ridiculous in posting 42 points, seven assists and six rebounds and shot 5-of-7 from 3-point range. Afterward, Rockets coach Mike D’Antoni — who has, remember, coached the likes of Kobe Bryant and Steve Nash and has, of course, been in the league through the run of LeBron James and Kevin Durant and so many other all-time players — had this to say:

D’Antoni just called James Harden “the best offensive player I’ve ever seen”

— Sean Highkin (@highkin) March 21, 2018

D’Antoni referred to as Harden “the perfect offensive participant” he is ever seen. This assertion is each arduous to consider and arduous to argue in opposition to. Harden is simply utterly unstoppable, and Houston put him in such an excellent place to succeed, merely searching switches till he will get a giant or every other mismatch on an island after which merely letting him go to work on him like a jaguar screwing with a mouse. 

The MVP race, as they are saying, is over.  

The dangerous information for the Blazers? Their 13-game win streak got here to an finish by the hands of the Rockets. The excellent news? They performed the perfect workforce within the league to date this season right down to the wire, solely dropping by 4, whereas Damian Lillard, who has been torching the league like Nero’s Rome for the reason that All-Star break, performed an uncharacteristically dangerous sport, going simply 5 of 17 from the sphere for 20 factors, 10 of which got here on the free-throw line. 

In case you’re not taking the Blazers’ significantly, try to be. They play each ends, they’ve the most effective rim protectors within the league in Jusuf Nurkic and one of many quietest stars in CJ McCollum. Additionally they have probably the most deadly killers within the league in Lillard, who needs to be top-five on each single MVP poll identified to any logical voting man or girl. 

Attention-grabbing state of affairs for the Blazers: If the season had been to finish proper now they might be the No. Three seed, and if seeds held, they might play the No. 2-seed Warriors within the second spherical. You could possibly argue they might be higher off falling to the No. Three seed, which might line up a possible second-round matchup with Houston as a substitute. If they’ll play proper subsequent to the Rockets with Lillard being off his sport, as they did on Tuesday, do not inform me they can not put a scare into them if Lillard will get on certainly one of his streaks. 

On this yr’s Rookie of the Yr race between Simmons and Donovan Mitchell, there have been two fairly standard narratives growing: Mitchell is the one doing his factor as a No. 1 possibility, whereas Simmons’ numbers, No. 1 possibility or not, are historic. I’ve been in Mitchell’s nook a lot of the season. Its getting more durable to remain there. 

Get this: Over his final 5 video games, Simmons is one help and 5 rebounds from having file 5 straight triple-doubles. 5. Straight. Listed below are his traces in these video games:

13 factors, 9 assists, 7 rebounds

11 factors, 15 assists, 12 rebounds

21 factors, 12 assists, eight rebounds

13 factors, 12 assists, 10 rebounds

10 factors, 10 assists, 13 rebounds

Oh by the best way, the Sixers have received 4 of their final 5 and eight of their final 11, and in accordance with SportsLine knowledge specialist Stephen Oh, they’re the odds-on favourite to finish up with the No. four seed within the East with home-court benefit within the first spherical. With Simmons’ numbers and that sort of workforce success, it’ll be fairly arduous to disclaim him the ROY. 

Bear in mind all that speak about Lonzo Ball’s improved taking pictures? Effectively, over his final seven video games he is 10-for-49 from Three-point vary, and he hasn’t scored in double figures in nearly two weeks. Ouch. 

So here is what I am going to say about this: Lonzo goes to be inconsistent as a result of, one, he is a rookie, and two, he doesn’t have a very repeatable shot when it comes to mechanics. It simply would not at all times come off the identical approach — relying on off the dribble or off the catch, or myriad different components — due to that type. He’ll work on that. 

Within the meantime, the reply is someplace within the center: Lonzo just isn’t as dangerous a shooter as he appeared like to begin the season, or as dangerous as he has appeared not too long ago, however he is additionally not pretty much as good a shooter as his numbers would’ve indicated when he was on hearth type downtown not that way back. At this level, you must respect his shot, however you actually do not concern it.

Jordan Bell couldn’t stop reminding the Bulls about their cash considerations trade

$3.5 million.

Jordan Bell’s become a rising star among the Warriors, although he could’ve been that with the Bulls. During the NBA draft, the Bulls picked Bell and later traded him to the Warriors for cash considerations worth $3.5 million. Ever since that happened, Bulls fans have been reminding themselves of what could’ve been — as the Bulls stumble through rebuilding mode, Bell’s thriving with the Warriors, enough to get praise from Steve Kerr.

Words of encouragement... Coach Steve Kerr @1jordanbell

A post shared by NBA (@nba) on Nov 2, 2017 at 9:12pm PDT

So on Friday, the Warriors hosted the Bulls, and aside from Kerr battling his old team again, there was the “Jordan Bell vs. cash considerations” narrative lingering in the background. Kerr knew that going in, and he decided to troll the Bulls for their draft decision.

Steve Kerr absolutely started Jordan Bell against the Bulls on purpose.

— Sean Highkin (@highkin) November 25, 2017

And Bell definitely wanted to remind the Bulls of their lost opportunity, because he couldn’t stop doing the money sign:

— AP (@Ananth_Pandian) November 25, 2017

He even shouted “3.5” after making a big play:

Jordan Bell makes a money gesture and says 3.5 after the and 1!!!!!! http://pic.twitter.com/PMQ5MljiLx

— ⓂarcusD (@_MarcusD2_) November 25, 2017

After the game, Bell got one more joke for Chicago:

Jordan Bell did the money sign during intros: "I just wanted to see how cash considerations was playing over there."

— Vincent Goodwill (@vgoodwill) November 25, 2017

So yeah, things are not great for Bulls fans! ESPN’s Chris Herring pretty much sums it all up here:

Bulls could look back a year or two from now and be totally happy w this rebuild. But Bulls fans aren't bout to let the Jordan Bell thing go if he continues to play well.

— Chris Herring (@Herring_NBA) November 25, 2017

(And he’ll keep playing well.)

NBA scores 2017: LeBron James’ biggest rival is Kawhi Leonard

James and Leonard is the best rivalry we forget exists.

LeBron James hates seeing Kawhi Leonard.

We don’t have to call it a rivalry, since James doesn’t like that word. No opponent can shut down James, no matter how good a defender. But when James sees Leonard, he knows how much harder his life just became on the court. Just a glimpse of Leonard coming off the bench, and he can mentally envision Leonard’s freakish wingspan and unparalleled defensive prowess following his every step. It’s enough to drop a curse word or two — which he literally has done before.

That moment happened in the 2013 NBA Finals. James won that series, with Leonard still developing into the player he is today. The Spurs beat Miami in the finals the next year, with Leonard being the third-youngest player to ever win Finals MVP. The two players show no mercy against each other in every matchup we’ve seen since. On Saturday, in the Cavaliers and the Spurs’ first meeting this season, it was Leonard who metronomed his way back on top as San Antonio won 118-115 in overtime.

Leonard made it happen. His 41 points were a career-high, his first time breaking the 40-point plateau, and it came on 15-of-30 shooting. He has now scored 30 points in six straight games, the first Spur with a streak like that since Mike Mitchell in 1986. Leonard’s steal and slam off a crucial jump ball all but sealed the game in overtime. He accounted for six of San Antonio’s 11 overtime points, too.

Yet again, Leonard is even better on offense this year, taking on a higher usage rate and creating shots in more creative ways while having a chance for a 50-40-90 shooting season. All this is coming from the two-time Defensive Player of the Year, who will be right up there in that race again this season. This isn’t just established notoriety for Leonard, either. He didn’t slip a little on defense because of all the fun offensive chances coming his way. Just look at James, who sighs when Leonard is guarding him, knowing the two-way juggernaut makes his life harder than just about anyone in the league.

As mentioned, that’s still not enough to stop James. In particular, it wasn’t late in the game. You could see the frustration mounting over the final minutes of the fourth quarter with the Cavaliers trailing the entire time — sometimes, it was due to James’ struggles to get past Leonard, but others, it was his teammates doing something like not boxing out LaMarcus Aldridge for a wide-open tip-in dunk. The frustration boiled over, though, and James said “enough” once the clock rolled into the game’s final minute. He basically forced overtime by himself.

LeBron from DEEP for the tie! Spurs, Cavs tied 107-107 with 13.4 sec. left on ABC! http://pic.twitter.com/yyHBDH0ur5

— NBA.com (@NBAcom) January 22, 2017

The Cavaliers trailed 107-102, but two James free throws set up his impossibly deep triple on the next trip down. He was nearly touching the C logo and he shot it up anyway. James then smothered Leonard on the Spurs’ final play, forcing a turnaround jumper that was short off iron. Look, this is what we’re trying to tell you: these two players facing each other leads to very, very high level basketball.

It’s a rivalry, for sure. It doesn’t have the pettiness that the Warriors vs. the Cavaliers carries with it year-round, but neither James or Leonard wants that. Just stick the two most well-rounded players in the league against each other, and simply have them play ball.

James’ game-tying shot was a smart play, forcing a two-for-one that could potentially give the Cavaliers another chance (given another stop) without playing the foul game if it had missed originally. James knew he could make it, too. But somewhere in his mind — maybe tucked away in a corner in the back, even subconsciously — he had to be exhaling. Thinking, Kawhi finally gave me a couple inches to breathe.

That never happens. No wonder he shot it.

It’s (still) a bad time to be Boogie Cousins.

This season hasn’t gone DeMarcus Cousins’ way too often. Don’t take my word for it — just look at our headlines about the poor dude this year.

Failed. Yelled. Ejected. What do you do with him? Those aren’t the words or phrases you want to see in a headline. They’re caused by a mix of things — Cousins’ short temper, yes, but bad refereeing and terminally bad decision-making by Sacramento’s front office and half a dozen unlucky breaks, too.

The Kings lost again on Saturday, falling 102-99 to the Bulls in a game that came down to the last possession. Here’s the headline that came from that game.

And the photo evidence.

Boogie was not happy about that call. http://pic.twitter.com/9jagzuwAxw

— Sean Highkin (@highkin) January 22, 2017

Here’s the thing — Boogie’s right. After describing how Cousins and the Kings keep getting unlucky this season, it finally looked like they had a break ready to go their way. Dwyane Wade went the length of the court on a go-ahead dunk and he missed it. Now that’s luck, making up for bad defense and taking advantage of a 21,000-point scorer who totally miscalculated his aging vertical. Maybe the Kings win it on the next possession!

... and the referees called a foul. On this.

DeMarcus Cousins rightfully irate after one of the the worst referee calls in recent NBA history http://pic.twitter.com/mU7h9yy4W8

— #GonzoForLonzo (@World_Wide_Wob) January 22, 2017

It’s a bad time to be Boogie Cousins. What are you gonna do?

(For the record, Cousins’ answer was sarcastically raving about how good the officials are. Which, hey, that’s good maturity. There’s nothing lucky about it, though.)

Saturday’s best play

GAME. WINNER. #PistonsNow #DetroitBasketball http://pic.twitter.com/xn9LsQYOHG

One other thing from Saturday

Gregg Popovich spent four uninterrupted minutes talking about Donald Trump. Like the past two times he’s spoken out about Trump, he’s very and understandably disappointed.
