Yep I would lose. Obviously PHX has the highest ceiling. Sac is playing some great ball but no playoff experience.

Can’t lose unless NOLA does too.

 

[tlance]

They are going home anyway with no George.

Seriously, even with the play in teams, I wouldn’t confidently take them over anyone but the Lakers.

So, no point in risking falling into the play in.

Clippers have the tie breaker over the Dubs and Lakers, not NOLA.

Clippers lose, NOLA AND Dubs win, we finish 7.

Uh, no.

Ok, did not realize they could drop to 7

Yeah, they got to win.

 

[Mecca]

Clippers tried to get him at the deadline.

Yeah, the West is still……wild…lol

The game to watch is NOLA vs Minny.

Both teams have something to play for.

Minny wins, they are 8th and only need 1 game to make the playoffs.

NOLA wins, Clippers lose, Pelicans are 5th, Dubs 6th, Clips 7.

NBA was smart to have all those games at the same time.

Now, Clips and Dubs can’t just wait to see the outcome of the NOLA game before deciding to sit guys.

I honestly thought this video was looped until I noticed the people moving in the stands.

Forgot about Nola but what about a 3-way tie…haven’t looked into it.

 

[Shanemansj13]

I believe the Mavs could have $54M in cap space if they don’t bring back Bullock. $44M with Bullock

 

[thunderc]

Yeah he just doesn’t really move the needle in my opinion

I tend not to root either way unless the Thunder are playing but I think I’d rather go ambush the TWolves than try to beat the Pelicans.

Damn, little man was blubbering.

Usually, I am in the kids are off limits camp.

But, that child should not have even been in the ring to taunt IZZY, way back when.

This is super fucking petty for a grown man to taunt a teen over something he did at 5 or 6 years old.

But, K will allow it…lol

I’m not sure what you are getting better than what they could have….

Brunson, Finney-Smith, Wood and Dinwiddie

Not sure what that tax would be….probably couldn’t pay Wood regardless

 

[Shanemansj13]

Yeah he just doesn’t really move the needle in my opinion

Yeah I’m not sure how much he will demand but probably too much. You bring him back if you have the squad from last year but pretty sure they would be paying in the tax a shit ton

3 way tie goes NOLA, Clippers, Dubs.

NOLA needs to win and the other 2 need to take the L and the Clippers land at 6.

Problem is: Do you see the Dubs losing?

Nah, Dubs aren’t losing. Freebee win

 

[Mecca]

Nah, Dubs aren’t losing. Freebee win

Plus, if the Lakers win, they pass the Dubs if they drop this game.

They can’t risk falling into the play in either.

He acknowledged he was petty lol

Coke head, brittle bone syndrome, DNP-morbidly obese, lack of testicular fortitude.

Nailed it

It could get interesting.

If the Clips and Warriors both lose (which I don't see happening) and the Lakers and NOLA both win, all 4 teams will be 43-39. The Lakers own the tiebreaker over NOLA and the Warriors, but not the Clips.
