Portland went 6-2 in the bubble. If they went 5-3, PHX is in.

I blame the Bucks for being so good they didn’t play their starters against the Grizz today

A Portland-Phoenix play in game would have been soooooo good.

right, but at what level of odds did they really deserve a chance?


Well there is also a revenue/entertainment factor

They were very close to making it. They need like 1 more Portland loss?

How dumb is it that you want a team under 500 to make it

It is mind bottling what I am seeing on Twitter about it being unfair for them to go 8-0 and not get in. Laughable. Unfair would have been them getting in while playing teams who weren't even making an effort

Would these people be making the same argument if they finished out the regular season on an 8-0 run and still missed the playoffs? Because isn't that really all they did?

"It's not fair. They ended the season on an 8-0 run. They should get in the playoffs."

"Yeah, but they were still 14 games under .500."

"But.. an 8-0 run."

it's completely fair. no argument otherwise. i like your analogy.

however, it's still hilarious that they went 8-0 in the bubble (that was designed for teams with a chance to make it) and still didnt get in.

I do to but the Lakers would crush them in 5. Portland has the best shot at giving the Lakers a competitive series..... Memphis is garbage.
