Teams that can't gain or lose ground may load manage.

Yeah they need to rest their guys a little

Yeah they need to rest their guys a little

3 months isn't enough...lol

Seriously, they will.

Might be a game, might be the 2nd half or a quarter.

But, the upper teams won't risk injury for no gains, even if it's counterproductive towards getting in rhythm, playing yourself into shape.

 

[tlance]

Yeah they need to gain a game on POR, NO, and Sac to avoid the play-in game. Don't think they do it

Maybe not. As long as they keep the 8 seed though, whoever sees them in the play in would have to win 2 in a row against them. Grizz still in the driver’s seat.

They're a bunch of little cunts. Just before they hit their teens they become a real pain in the ass.

glad I only have boys

Yep. Teenage girls are the worst. Went through that with 3. Not sure how I survived.

Dude, you haven't lived until 3 teenage girls are all fighting with each other and their Mom...you walk by and say something (or sometimes not say anything) and suddenly they unite and all 4 are mad at you.

I don’t care what anybody says.

Murder hornets are scary.

Remember this:

Apparently, the NBA is working with the 8 teams that didn't make the playoff cut on doing something for them.

According to Windhorst (just saw him on SportsCenter), they are considering mini summer leagues, training camps and OTA's.

The mini summer leagues might be kind of cool.

 

[Battlelyon]

Oh brother

 

[trojanfan12]

Oh brother

Yeah, they need to NOT do that. Would be as bad as "laugh tracks" for tv shows.

I still vote that it impacts the lotto or sets the order but maybe that's too radical. But you'd get major eyeballs on those games if you put that kind of juice on it

Would you though?

I would argue you would have much better competition and better games without tying it to the lottery.

Because if you tie it to lottery odds, teams will be incentivized you lose. I would rather see quality opportunity for young stars like Trae Young to develop.

Anyone find it funny that KD refuses to play for the Nets this season but was planning on playing for team USA in the Olympics which would have started right around the time the nba season is back

I'm saying the reverse

The better you finish the better your lottery odds
