Pels play 8, 9 & 10 in the West rest of the way. Have to win a couple play-in games to avoid the play-in.

As long as we don’t play in the SKC again we should be fine.

With one more win and a couple of breaks any chance warriors/lakers rest players against us? They’re both old teams who are safe for play in and likely will have little chance to change spots.

Pels beat Kings tomorrow and Kings beat Suns next game.

That solidifies Pels 6/7 and Warriors/ Lakers 9/10.

I'm cool with

- Kings lose to us, beat Suns

- Warriors win out

- We beat Kings/ Lakers

Either

win (3)

or

win (2) and (1) Suns loss

Somebody check my math

If we win any of our remaining games, we cannot finish lower than 8th, correct?

If that win is Sacramento, we can't go below 7th, right?

I"m sure AD will scratch his vagina or something and leave in the 2nd quarter like normal, assuming he even plays. He might have another headache and not play at all.

Yes, if we beat Sacramento tomorrow then we are at worst the 7 seed.


The Warriors will win Thursday against the Blazers.
Then they'll be a 3 way tie for 8/9/10.
The Lakers lose every tie breaker with Kings and Warriors, as they are 0-8 against them.
Kings and Warriors are even, but Kings win tie breaker b/c of conference wins.
so any scenario of tie breaker with those 3 goes Kings, Warriors, Lakers.

If the Suns get into tie breakers with them, then they lose the tie breaker to the Lakers, win vs the Warriors, and they'll settle the tie breaker with the Kings on Friday.


WHile the Kings obviously don't want to lose to us, it's a lot more important they beat the Suns.

Man I want the Thunder so bad in the playoffs..

Saw SGA scored 40 for them last night.. 20 Free throw attempts

God help the world if the NBA gives that guy 20 free throws in a playoff game

no lower than 7 seed if we win 1, but
Playoffstatus likes us to finish 6 if we win just 1 remaining game. They must have Suns losing @Kings and @Wolves for us to be able to win 1 and still remain top 6.



ETA we own tiebreaker over kings so it doesn’t matter if we lose to them and beat lakers or warriors. That still locks in 7 seed with one win.

AD has been really healthy this year by his standards, at least that is what I have heard.

6th or bust. I'm praying both Warriors and Lakers rest guys, but I know the Lakers at least won't.

Talk about controlling your own destiny. We really need the Suns to drop at least one more.

Still have to finish it though. Phoenix will lose one more game I think so while I still think and want the Pels to win out and finish right so you get that extra week of rest on the players namely BI, Zion and CJ. 2-1 might very well get the job done though. One game at a time.

I don't want to face Denever because we don't match up well with them and I don't want the Lakers, because the refs will give them every call.
