    Denver Nuggets vs Chicago Bulls

    Denver Nuggets

    The Denver Nuggets are 1-2 in the preseason and have been clicking offensively at a high clip. The Nuggets shot 56.9 percent in a game against the Oklahoma City Thunder and 40.2 percent against the Phoenix Suns. Danilo Gallinari returned in the Nuggets most recent game, and he looked terrific by knocking down five of his nine shot attempts. One player who has really shined for Denver has been rookie Gary Harris, who has scored a combined 27 points and has dished three assists in the first three games. Kenneth Faried has been dealing with a minor ankle injury, but he’s expected to play in this matchup. The Denver Nuggets have to feel optimistic with the way they’ve played so far.

    Chicago Bulls

    The Chicago Bulls have lost two of their three games and are looking to jell by the time the season begins. Pau Gasol is coming off his best game in a Bulls uniform, scoring 20 points and grabbing 11 rebounds in a victory over the Milwaukee Bucks. Derrick Rose continues to iron out any wrinkles, as he’s played a combined 50 minutes and has scored 33 points. As the Bulls continue to search for point guard depth, Aaron Brooks has really impressed at both ends of the court, especially on defense where he’s come up with a few steals. Rookie Doug McDermott is still trying to find his groove, but he has made one three in each of the first three games. The Chicago Bulls are simply getting a feel for one another and looking to improve on the offensive side of the ball.

    Shitty weekend for players I like. Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal both requiring surgery and out 6-8 weeks. The Wizards are going to have like 5 available players in their opener against Miami...

    Kevin Love throwing outlet passes to LeBron James. If you need anything else to get excited for this season, you're doing something wrong.

    Home - Cleveland Cavaliers
    Last away matches - W-W-W-W-L-L

    The Cleveland Cavaliers are off to a 3-0 start this preseason as the excitement surrounding this team continues to grow. LeBron James and Kyrie Irving sat out on Tuesday against Milwaukee so it was Kevin Love’s turn to shine and he responded by scoring 25 points and grabbing four rebounds in 21 minutes of action. Dion Waters poured in 23 points in 25 minutes and Shawn Marion scored 11 as the Cavs showed even without their two top stars they have more than enough in the tank to be a force this year. The Cavs shot 45.3% from the floor but 89.3% from the free throw line and that was the difference. James is healthy but Cleveland plays three games in four nights but Tristan Thomson is nursing a sore shoulder and Irving is recovering from rolling his ankle so they are still sidelined.

    Away - Indiana Pacers
    Last away matches - L-W-W-W-L-L

    The Indiana Pacers have been off since Sunday when they lost to the Dallas Mavericks. The Pacers continue to prepare for a season without Paul George they are still being selective with who is playing and playing time for the preseason. Roy Hibbert sat out on Sunday as did George Hill and C.J. Fair as C.J. Miles led all scorers with 19. Point guard C.J. Watson scored 16 points while Donald Sloan had 2 and Lavoy Allen had 10. The Pacers were creamed on the boards by the Mavs 48-36 and they turned the ball over 19 times. The Pacers are a playoff tested team but without Paul it is going to be a real test.

    Home - Boston Celtics
    Last away matches - L-L-W-W-L-W

    The Boston Celtics have split their first four preseason games and are still trying to find out exactly who they are. One thing that should help the Celtics is the return of Jeff Green, who is expected to make his preseason debut after missing time with a calf injury. The main concern for the Celtics has to be the progress of rookie point guard Marcus Smart. In his last three games, Smart has turned the ball 10 times and is 7-21 from the field. While it may be unfair to expect a rookie to excel immediately, that’s basically what the Boston Celtics need to be successful with Rajon Rondo out with a hand injury. Marcus Thornton has really played well this preseason and will be a major contributor for the Celtics off the bench. At this point, Boston is looking for anybody and everybody to make an impact with the season right around the corner.

    Away - Toronto Raptors
    Last away matches - W-L-L-L-L-W

    The Toronto Raptors are a solid 3-1 in preseason play and already beat the Boston Celtics 116-109 last Friday. Louis Williams has provided a huge spark offensively off the bench for the Raptors, which includes a combined 31 points in his last two games. Kyle Lowry did not play in the Raptors most recent game due to rest and he shouldn’t see significant minutes in this matchup either, if at all. If there’s one thing the Toronto Raptors hope changes before the regular season, it’s the turnovers as they turned the ball over 21 times in their last game and it was an issue in last year’s playoffs. The Raptors continue to find out who they are through solid play but they have to clean their game up if they hope to be taken seriously as championship contenders.

    Philadelphia 76ers vs Boston Celtics

    Home - Philadelphia 76ers
    Last away matches - L-L-L-L-L-W

    The Boston Celtics have lost three straight preseason games and are 2-3 overall. The Celtics have had a hard time putting the ball in the hoop and the return of Jeff Green certainly didn’t help in Wednesday’s loss. Green, who missed all of the preseason with a hamstring injury, shot 3-12 from the field in 31 minutes in his preseason debut. Marcus Smart, who has also struggled at point guard, turned the ball over six times in his most recent contest. One player who continues to shine for the Boston Celtics is Marcus Thornton, who has scored in the double figures in three straight games and looks to be an offensive spark off the bench. It’s no secret the Boston Celtics are going to struggle this season and they’re just trying to find a few guys who can hopefully stop the bleeding. If preseason is any indication of things to come, it won’t be pretty for Boston fans.

    Away - Boston Celtics
    Last away matches - L-L-W-W-L-W

    The Philadelphia 76ers are 1-3 in the preseason and have lost two straight games. The issue for the 76ers lately have been turnovers, as they’ve coughed the ball up a combined 44 times in their last two games. One player who continues to produce for Philly is center Henry Sims, who has combined for 36 points and 18 rebounds in his last three games. Nerlens Noel has four blocks and 20 rebounds in his last two performances. While K.J. McDaniels is more known for his defense, he has shot a solid 8-13 from the field in his last two games. The Philadelphia 76ers are expected to be terrible this season and they haven't done much to change that thought in the preseason. However, there have been a couple of somewhat promising performances from some of their young players.

    Golden State Warriors vs Denver Nuggets

    Home - Golden State Warriors
    Last away matches - W-W-W-L-W-L

    The Golden State Warriors are 3-0 in the preseason and have shot better than 48 percent from the field in every contest. Stephen Curry has scored 45 points in his last two games and David Lee has scored in the double figures in all three games. The Warriors have pretty much been what they are in the regular season, a shooting machine that doesn’t miss much, and that’s even with Steve Kerr is their new head coach. Harrison Barnes, who needs to step his game up in his third year, is even a solid 9-20 from the field and is being a lot more active on the defensive end. Shaun Livingston will miss a couple of weeks due to a toe injury. Overall, Golden State fans have to be pleased with what they’ve seen from their team so far in the preseason.

    Away - Denver Nuggets
    Last away matches - L-L-L-L-L-L

    The Denver Nuggets are 1-3 in the preseason and all three of their losses have come on the road. Kenneth Faried looks to be in regular season form as he’s picked up right where he left up in FIBA play, simply scoring at will and controlling the glass in limited minutes. Danilo Gallinari is coming off his best preseason game where he scored 17 points in 14 minutes against the Phoenix Suns. Timofey Mozgov has been the most consistent Denver player throughout the preseason and if he can keep it up, he’s likely going to see the most minutes he’s ever had in his career. Rookie Gary Harris has also shown promise at times and looks like he has the potential to be a steal for the Nuggets. Overall, despite the results, the Denver Nuggets have found some depth in their first few games that they hope can hold up.

    Chicago Bulls vs Atlanta Hawks

    Home - Chicago Bulls
    Last away matches - W-L-W-W-W-L

    The Chicago Bulls dropped their first two games of the preseason but the have bounced back winning their last two. All eyes in Chicago are on Derrick Rose and his health as he has suffered season ending injuries the past two seasons but he looks to be healthy this year. While Rose is healthy, most feel he hasn’t been at his best for whatever reason and we saw that on Monday against the Nuggets as Rose scored 15 points but he was just 4 of 12 from the floor. Joakim Noah gets some big help from a big man this season as the Bulls have added Pau Gasol to the mix and he is coming off of a nine point performance o Monday. Taj Gibson has moved to the sixth man spot but that didn’t stop him from scoring 15 on Monday and Doug McDermott logged 16 points in 26 minutes. The Bulls pounded the boards against Denver out rebounding them by 45-37 and blocking seven shots. The Bulls have some question marks but the tinkering of the roster and playing without Rose the past two seasons have made them much more than just a one man show.

    Away - Atlanta Hawks
    Last away matches - W-L-L-W-W-L

    The Atlanta Hawks were an improved team last season and somewhat surprising but the question mark for them is whether they are ready to contend or if they are still in the building process. The Hawks are 2-1 so far this preseason and are coming off of a win on Monday in Miami against the Heat. Paul Milsap looks to be in mid season form scoring 23 points in 25 minutes on Monday and Kyle Korver had 17 points. Jeff Teague and DeMarre Carroll each had 10 points in 23 minutes and Mike Scott also had 10 points. 15 players in all had time on the floor for the Hawks on Monday as they worked in Adreian Payne who had five points and Shelvin Mack who had four points. The Hawks are really treating these games as a chance to get a good look at everyone and judging by what we have seen from them thus far their final roster is far from being decided.

    New Orleans Pelicans vs Oklahoma City Thunder

    Home - New Orleans Pelicans
    Last away matches - L-W-L-L-L-L

    The New Orleans Pelicans have split their first four preseason games and will play just their second true home game after beating the Houston Rockets on Tuesday. Anthony Davis is coming off his best preseason performance with 26 points and eight rebounds, as he shot a remarkable 9-11 from the field. Tyreke Evans, who is expected to be the Pelicans starting SF and has missed time with a hamstring injury, hopes to return for this matchup. Ryan Anderson looks like he’s going to have a big season for New Orleans, as he’s contributed 28 points and 10 rebounds in his last two games. It also looks like that Jimmer Fredette pickup may pay off for the Pelicans, as he’s canned six threes in his last two contests. If guys can continue to emerge, the New Orleans Pelicans could be a surprise team this season.

    Away - Oklahoma City Thunder
    Last away matches - W-L-W-W-L-L

    The Oklahoma City Thunder are 2-1 in the preseason and are coming off a 10-point win over the Memphis Grizzlies in their first game without Kevin Durant. In fact, the Thunder didn’t miss a beat by shooting 53.3 percent from the field and Jeremy Lamb led the way with 23 points. I’ve mentioned before that Lamb has big time potential if given a chance, and he showed some of that in the win over Memphis. Russell Westbrook actually looked like a point guard by dishing out 12 assists, while Anthony Morrow scored 19 points off the bench. It was an overall team victory for OKC with everybody contributing, and it’s exactly how the Thunder will have to play in order to win games with Durant out for an extended period of time.

    The Washington Wizards are 4-1 thus far this preseason as they look to build on last season’s playoff berth. Washington’s last game was again Maccabi Haifa which they won by just six points. The starters just didn’t play much in the last game as the backups saw plenty of action. Paul Pierce sat out on Wednesday and John Wall played just 12 minutes scoring five points. Otto Porter led all scorers for the Wizards with 19 points and eight rebounds and Kevin Seraphin had 18 points and 12 rebounds. Washington has a nice core of young players with DeJuan Blair and Glen Rice Jr. and they should be challengers once again.

The Starters logged plenty of minutes against Detroit but none of them had even a decent night. Al Jefferson and Brian Roberts each had 10 points and Lance Stephenson had eight points. P.J. Hairston had 10 points but Cody Zeller had just two points. Kemba Walker is sidelined with a knee contusion, Gerald Henderson has a hamstring industry, and Noah Vonleh is out with a hernia.

    The Orlando Magic are 3-1 for the preseason but they were one of the worst teams in the NBA last season. Orlando is coming off of a win in their last game but it was against Flamengo so there isn’t much we can decipher from it. Seth Curry and Victor Olidipo were among those who sat out last game as the Magic gave plenty of minutes to others. Nikola Vucevic scored 10 points and grabbed 11 rebounds and Tobias Harris had 14 points in 25 minutes. Devyn Marble played just 16 minutes and had four pointsand Aaron Gordon scored 15 off of the bench. Where we saw the biggest disparity for the Magic was on the boards where they outrebounded their opponent 50-37.

Andre Drummond scored 15 points and had 14 rebounds in 31 minutes of action, Josh Smith scored 14 points and had 10 rebounds in 34 minutes, and D.J.

    The Cavaliers improved to a perfect 4-0 this preseason after a 98-93 win over the Indiana Pacers at the Cintas Center in Cincinnati, OH on Wednesday. LeBron James led the Cavs with a game-high 26 points on 9-12 (.750) shooting, four rebounds, three assists and one steal in 24 minutes. His 26 points scored are the most by a Cavs player this preseason. Also in the victory, Matthew Dellavedova recorded 14 points on 6-9 (.667) shooting, a team-high four assists and two steals in 30 minutes, while Tristan Thompson pulled down a game-high nine rebounds and added six points in 26 minutes off the bench.

    The Mavericks got their first win of the preseason in their most recent game on Sunday in Dallas against the Indiana Pacers. Mavericks forward Dirk Nowitzki returned to the starting lineup against Indiana (after missing the first two preseason games due to a right hip contusion) and went 7-of-11 from the field in the opening half en route to 16 first-half points. He added five rebounds and two assists in 19 minutes. Charlie Villanueva (16) and Gal Mekel (11) scored all of their points in the fourth quarter as the Mavs came away with the 106-98 victory.

    Last away matches - L-L-W-W-W-L

    The Indiana Pacers are 1-3 in the preseason, have lost three straight games and this will be their first contest since Wednesday. The Pacers continue to struggle finding playmakers on the offensive end, as they’ve shot 40 percent or under in two of their last three games. Chris Copeland is coming off a 16-point performance and he’s scored a combined 22 points in his last two games. George Hill has probably been the most consistent player for the Pacers, as he’s a combined 9-17 from the field in his last two games. Roy Hibbert looks to be in better shape than last season and is more aggressive offensively, producing 21 points in his last two games. With the injury the Paul George, the Indiana Pacers are just looking for answers.

    Away - Dallas Mavericks
    Last away matches - W-W-W-L-L-W

    The Dallas Mavericks have split their first four preseason games, which includes a win Friday over the Cleveland Cavaliers. Dirk Nowitzki looks to be in regular season form the last couple of games, scoring 32 points and grabbing 14 rebounds. Monta Ellis returned from injury in Friday’s matchup, scoring 13 points and dishing out eight assists. Meanwhile, Tyson Chandler continues to struggle from the field, as he’s a combined 1-10 in his last two games. Jameer Nelson seems to be the Mavs starting point guard with the way he’s been playing, as he’s produced a combined 26 points and 13 assists in his last two contests. The Dallas Mavericks have improved with each preseason game.

    Home - Philadelphia 76ers
    Last away matches - L-L-L-L-L-W

    The Philadelphia 76ers were one of the worst teams in the NBA last season and so far this preseason they aren’t any better going 1-4 through their first five games. We last saw the 76ers in action on Thursday when they were losing on the road in Boston where seven players didn’t even dress including Michael Carter-Williams. The Sixers seem to have more talent with high potential and big question marks than any other team in the NBA with Nerlens Noel and Joel Embid both on the roaster. On Thursday Elliot Williams and Tony Wroten each had 17 points and Henry Sims grabbed 10 rebounds. Arnett Moultrie came off of the bench to score 16 points and grab nine rebounds and Alexey Shved had eight points. While I do see some talent on the roster in Philadelphia, this could be another tough season.

    Away - Orlando Magic
    Last away matches - L-W-W-W-L-L

    The Orlando Magic are having a strong preseason winning their last two games to go to 4-1 overall. Their one loss was on the road and 3 of their 5 games have been played on the road. Orlando is coming off of a game against Flamengo where we really didn’t learn much as it was more of a longer look at Magic bench players. Nikola Vicevic scored 20 points and grabbed 11 rebounds and Aaron Gordon scored 15 points and had nine rebounds. Tobias Harris had 14 points, Luke Ridnour had 11 points, and Willie Green had 11 points. Seth Curry sat out last game and Victor Oladipo is still nursing a sprained MCL.

    Last away matches - L-W-L-L-W-W

    The San Antonio Spurs are 1-2 in preseason play and lost their only game against NBA competition to the Phoenix Suns on Thursday. In the loss, the Spurs shot just 26.3 percent from three and turned the ball over 24 times. Kawhi Leonard continues to deal with an eye infection and remains questionable for this game, while Tiago Splitter is dealing with a strained calf injury. Patty Mills is also nursing a shoulder injury. Austin Daye is coming off a big game where he had 17 points and six rebounds, while Aron Baynes scored 11 points as the starting power forward. Tim Duncan and Tony Parker logged a lot of minutes in their first two games, so neither of them should play a ton in this contest.

    Away - Miami Heat
    Last away matches - L-L-L-L-L-W

    The Miami Heat won their first preseason game Friday night against the Golden State Warriors and improve to 1-4. The Heat only played 10 guys in the victory, which should allow fresh legs for some of their bench guys. One guy who continues to make strides is Shabazz Napier, who is finally comfortable in the lineup and has scored in the double digits in three straight games. Chris Bosh has 43 points in his last two games and Dwyane Wade has 26 points and four steals in his last two games. Bosh likely won’t see much time in this matchup after just playing 34 minutes on Thursday. In their first win, the Miami Heat knocked down 12 threes and shot a lights out 55.7 percent from the field.

    The Atlanta Hawks are 2-2 so far this preseason and with 10 days before the season officially starts they have played just one home game. The Hawks are coming off of a one-point loss at Chicago on Thursday in a defensive game where they played right into the Bulls hands. Only Paul Millsap didn’t play on Thursday as 14 Hawks saw action. Mike Scott led all Atlanta scorers with 15 points in 22 minutes and Dennis Schroder added 11 points. John Jenkins was the leading bench scorer with 10 points and Pero Antic had eight points. Elton Brand and Al Horford were the hawks leading rebounders with six each. While it was just preseason, the Hawks led the entire first three quarters of the game before being outscored by 20 in the fourth quarter to lose by a single point.
