Went with lakers/jazz

It was obvious for a while that minny/new orleans is the biggest game. Winner only needs to win 1 game to get in...loser must win 2 games
Not really a surprise I guess

If you can't understand the difference between a serious statement and a joke....that is more on you than me.

Dude.

You weren’t joking. Be honest.

You can’t say you were joking 5 days later. If you had been joking, you would have said so at the time.

You didn’t. So don’t try to play it off like you were now.

So apparently the league is investigating Dallas for sitting players due to a draft pick being involved.
Imagine being the 5th seed in the Western Conference about half way through the season. Then trading away a good scoring guard, your BEST PERIMETER defender and a future 1st RD pick for Kyrie’s crazy ass for 3 months thinking you’re going to make a serious playoff push.

Now look at them. Blatantly tanking to try to save a pick that was in a deal they made a while ago for Porzingis, who isn’t even on the team anymore.

JOKE

Standings wise and overall basketball fan wise yes. But TV wise, they made the right choice. Regardless of the circumstances, the Lakers are a draw and that's all they care about.

So we know what’s up in the East. Here’s how I think it will go.
Sixers vs Nets - Sixers in 6
Cavs vs Knicks - Knicks in 6
Celtics v Miami - Celtics in 5
Bucks vs Toronto - Bucks in 5

Bucks vs Knicks - Bucks in 6
Celtics vs Sixers - Sixers in 6

Bucks vs Sixers - Sixers in 7

Fixed all that for you......and for me too.

You're welcome.
Happy Easter.
Carry on.
:suds:

The play in for the play in?

No thanks. Not particularly interesting to me.

Those games are only relevant if they include a team that has a chance to make noise in the playoffs.

I guess New Orleans could if Zion comes back ever, but I don’t think that is likely to happen.

With so many teams going with bench games today, gotta go with Lakers and Celtics vs the Masters on Easter.
