thats why I said they will be top 6 at least together with Warriors. Clippers will go down to play-in.

Looks like Lakers vs Flips in battle for 7th playoffs spot.

The only chance for Lakeshow to be in top 6 is if they win the remaining 5 games.

That’s great for us. Hopefully they beat the Pels.


Well if the clippers lose they'll be at 38 losses just like us. And if NO loses they are knocked back from us. Either outcome helps us as long as we keep our end and continue to win.

Suns/warriors would be good too. I think warriors are more likely at this point

Not exactly something we should have much expectation for. They do have the Nuggets and Thunder next though. Especially at Denver.

if they gonna keep on resting him, they gonna kiss that #1 spot goodbye. Grizz can still catch them, grizz can win 4 out of their last 5 and finish at 53 wins. Nuggets still needs 2 wins to secure the top spot. They will not get that if they continue resting Jokic. They are a lottery team without him lol.

Nuggets rested not just Jokic. They also sat Murray, Porter, Caldwell-Pope and Green.

They are playing the odds they can hold the first seed with the 3 game lead with six to go. I like their chances.

Who should we root against tomorrow? I feel a Clippers loss is better for us if we are capable of winning all 5 games to claim 6th. Pels losing will help if we are targeting 7th or 8th.

It took a minute, but bout F’n time!

And in other apocalyptic news…y’all hear that? It’s the doomsday cowbell ringing. The Queens are a win away against the lottery bound Spurs on Sunday from clinching the Pacific.

I believe no team has ever made the playoffs after 2-10 start

Honestly, I go with rooting the Clippers to lose.

We have the Pelicans in the tiebreaker, AND they have a harder schedule than the Clippers in general. So as long as the Lakers take care of their own business and continue winning games, then we can get over the Clippers for the 6th seed.
