Home games played by Western contenders after tonight

GS 21
POR 24
MEM 22
LAC 26
SA 22
PHX 21
OKC 19
DAL 21
HOU 22

Pellies 18

i thought this was threadworthy bc we're dismissing getting the 8th playoff spot when i believe most are unaware of this.

now granted 6 home games in a row starting Sunday evens this out pretty much. we have had 25 on the road so far, so a 6 game homestand still does not even up our home away split

many other reasons we're dismissive of a playoff spot

No doubt. But if they take advantage of this home stretch, it could change the landscape (no #PTAO)

Yep, we are clearly a better home team.

I think unfortunately we are past the point where the math works. I don't think 50 wins is going to get it done this year

those stupid losses to east shite teams are going to be the difference if the pels get close

we're about to catch up considering we're about to play 9 out of the next 10 at home... including the next 6

I swear you could get stabbed and you'd probably commend the assailant on good technique

Up vote for using Zach Lowe's "Pellies" nickname

We could be 25-18 right now instead of 22-21 if we didn't drop the ball against Boston, Philly, and NYK.

That would put us at the 8th seed (Phoenix is 26-19).

Phoenix doesn't even have a winning record against the Western Conference and is ahead of the Pels. That is just ridiculous while we are 5 games above 0.500 in the conference. Just horrible against these shitty Eastern Conference teams.

Thank you, sir. The extreme highs and lows are silly. And it is true that a run during this home stand would make a significant difference in playoff possibilities. I'm not predicting the team makes the playoffs by any stretch. I am saying, though, that things could get a lot more interesting. Who the frick knows what could happen in the last 40 games?

fearthehat, c'mon man. You need some relief.
