Yea, that #1 seed isn't that important that they want to mess around & have to play the Heat in the first round. Second seed is probably a better spot for them. :D

Glad D'Angelo hit that shot. His grandma died yesterday and he chose to play anyway (family said that's what she'd want). He dedicated the game to her and hit the game winner. Then he found his family in the stands and hugged/celebrated with them.

Good stuff.

Yeah, I didn't know that until after the game. Im happy he made it too.

So, you think that if the Lakers hang on to the top 3 pick, the lottery is rigged, but if they don't, it isn't?
I've just had a hard time trusting that the lottery is legit with some recent results, and if it wasn't fair then it'd make sense for them to want the Lakers to stay top 3. I get that it's close to 50/50 chance for the Lakers to keep their pick so it's not out of the ordinary that they would retain it. I also just want the Lakers to lose their pick. To answer your question no I don't think it's definitely rigged if the Lakers keep their pick.

There are 6 early games on tonight. And the one thats on TNT is the only one that doesn't affect playoff seeding.

TNT should flex that out for literally any other game.

And all for nothing. You won't beat the C's but at least y'all will put up a fight in the playoffs...maybe

What's your point again? Who said the Heat are winning a title or even making the playoffs?

They are still the 3rd worst team in the league.
3rd worst team only has about a 47% chance to finish top 3, could go either way. It'd be nice if they lost the pick, but not a shock if they kept it.
