Nobody is talking about dallas. Okc is not gonna choke. Go look at dallas and their schedule and tell me they don't have a 25-30% chance of falling. They have a very rough schedule. Lakers up tonight at home too against them.

6 games is a ton to make up over 19 games. Dallas really has to go to shite. Not out of the question, but more unlikely than going +1 vs OKC over the rest of the season.

And the Mavs own the tie-breaker... so it's really like 7 games.

If the Mavs fell off and went 9-9 over their last 18, the Pelicans would have to go 16-3.

Mavs: 8-10, Pels: 15-4
Mavs: 7-11, Pels: 14-5
Mavs: 6-12, Pels: 13-6
Mavs: 5-13, Pels: 12-7
Mavs: 4-14, Pels: 11-8
Mavs: 3-15, Pels: 10-9
Mavs: 2-16, Pels: 9-10
Mavs: 1-17, Pels: 8-11
Mavs: 0-18, Pels: 7-12



If the Pelicans went on an unbelievable run to close the season 15-4, they'd still need the Mavs to play under .500 to jump them.

Very unlikely.

And if they went 15-4, they'd most likely jump the Thunder anyway, making passing up the Mavs a moot point in terms of getting into the playoffs.

Simmons actually said in a radio interview in Memphis last week that he wouldn't be surprised to see them miss the playoffs
