Stephen Curry, Ionescu tuloy ang shootout sa NBA All-Star Weekend

Bukod sa tampok na East vs. West, tuloy din ang tagisan ng sharpshooters na sina Stephen Curry ng Golden State at Sabrina Ionescu ng New York Liberty sa WNBA sa NBA All-Star Weekend sa Indianapolis.

Ikinasa noong January ang showdown ng dalawa na kauna-unahan sa ganitong uri ng labanan - NBA vs. WNBA - sa liga.

“Sky is the limit for her and what she can do on the court in terms of her impact in the game but off the court as well,” ani Curry sa katunggali.

Naglista ng record 37 points si Ionescu sa WNBA 3-point shootout noong nakaraang taon.

Matapos ang panalo, nag-tweet si Ionescu ng hamon kay Curry: “Shootout?” na tinanggap ng Warriors gunner.

Two-time winner ng NBA 3-point contest si Curry noong 2015 at 2021, best niya ang 31 points sa isang round at 13 straight baskets.

Samantala, sa tingin ng fans ay liyamadong-liyamado ang West laban sa East sa All-Star Game.

Si LeBron James ang captain ng West, kasamang starters sina Luka Doncic, Kevin Durant, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander at Nikola Jokic. Reserves sina Stephen Curry, Devin Booker, Anthony Davis, Anthony Edwards, Paul George, Kawhi Leonard at Karl-Anthony Towns.

Captain ng East si Giannis Antetokounmpo, kasama niyang starters sina Tyrese Haliburton, Damian Lillard, Jayson Tatum at Joel Embiid (injured). Pinili ng coaches na reserves sina Bam Adebayo, Paolo Banchero, Jaylen Brown, Jalen Brunson, Tyrese Maxey, Donovan Mitchell at Julius Randle (injured).

Hinugot ni commissioner Adam Silver sina Trae Young at Scottie Barnes bilang pamalit kina Embiid (left knee surgery) at Randle (dislocated shoulder).

Buong All-Star Saturday Night lineup ay ilalaro sa full-video LED court na ilalatag sa Lucas Oil Stadium.

Ang skills competition, 3-point contest, slam dunk competition at shooting matchup sa pagitan nina Curry at Ionescu ay gagawin din sa glass floor sa Feb. 17 (Feb. 18 sa Manila), pati ang celebrity game sa Feb. 16 (Feb. 17 sa Manila).

These NBA Round 1 Playoff Matchups Are Must-See TV

1. Los Angeles Clippers vs Phoenix Suns

Really this one hinges on how healthy Paul George will be but with the timelines that have been given, there is every chance he will be back for the 1st round.

This series has the potential to be the most exciting of anything on this list and there’s a couple of reasons for that.

Not only is there the prospect of Kevin Durant, Chris Paul and Devin Booker, playing against Kawhi Leonard, Paul George and Russell Westbrook, but you can bet on a very special competetive atmosphere because most of the star players are over the age of 30 and playoff opportunities are at a premium now.

Niether team has really had an ideal season and niether of them have really had their best players on the court together for a significant stretch, so watch the turnover count in these games.

Expect some very interesting adjustments from the coaches because every timeout will add a note of intrigue when Tyronn Lue and Monty Wiliams start making thier adjustments.

It really isn’t healthy to bet or try to predict a winner for this series, so whoever is healthiest is the favorite, but I think the boggets mismatch of any player on either team will be Deandre Ayton and I don’t think the Clippers have answers for him.

Give me the Suns in 7.

2.  Golden State Warriors vs Sacremento Kings

The Sacremento Kings are in the NBA playoffs for the first time in 21 years. 

For as good as that narrative is, and as well deserved as their playoff appearance is, a series against the defending champions in the 1st round.

For what it’s worth the Warriors limp into this 1st round on the back of what looked like it would be the worst season by a defending NBA champion in history.

The Kings are the number 1 offense in the regular season and at 25 points, 6 assists and 3 rebounds per game, De’Aaron Fox is the great hope leading the Kings resurgence and ending a dark period of Sacremento basketball history of bad draft picks. Next to him is dribble-hand-off master, Donantas Sabonis, veteran shooter Harrison Barnes and my old nemesis, Kevin Huerter.

While the Kings are statistically the best offense in the NBA, the great achillies heel with young teams is typically thier defense, and that’s where I think the Warriors can turn the series.

Former NBA Allstar and full time knucklehead, Gilbert Arenas had some interesting observations regarding how the crowd would be split in each game of the series, noting how the Warriors fans would takeover Sacremento’s arena, and he could very well be right.

Yet another very hard series to pick and the Kings are so unproven that I have to go with the Warriors but I will be rooting HARD for the Kings in this one.

Prediction: Warriors in 7.

3. Los Angeles Lakers vs Memphis Grizzlies

I am no fan, advocate, admirer or kin to any Laker or thier fans, but the quality of this post season is greatly improved by the presence of LeBron James, and that’s just objective facts and the idea that they have been paired with the flavor-of-the-month, Memphis Grizzlies, is even better for neutrals.

The Memphis Grizzlies are not a great 3-point shooting team and that along with Steven Adam’s injury, will likely make this a far more even series than what it looks like on paper.

This is going to come down to 2 teams doing most of thier scoring at the rim and if either team can have a hot 3-point shooting night it will be a bonus and also an anomaly.

Despite the difference in the team’s regular season records, it’s a much closer series than anyone wants to admit, and go ahead and call my crazy but I am picking Los Angeles to win in 7 games.

Dillon Brooks and the Memphis Grizzlies might feel different about the series, but I don’t think a team with 0 rim protectors is going to be able to overcome LeBron and Anthony Davis.

Lakers in 7.
