Zion 4? Wtf


He had horrible game, we were on back to back, no BI- in the words of Jimmy Butler “I guess we’re just the better team.”

back to just 1 game behind the Clips for the 4 seed

I believe a magic # of 5 to officially clinch at worst a play-in spot

I don’t care which games were wins and losses, I think any Pels fan would happily take a 3-1 game road trip here. Worst case is 2-2, but while the spread isn’t out yet, ESPN gives us an 81% chance of winning Sunday at DET.

Miami defended Zion extremely well. Multiple bodies at all times. Of course that left CJ open

If Pels win 7 they’re going to be in the 4-5 game. PHX and SAC have the toughest schedules remaining.

I’m pretty confident we finish 5th and just hope OKC gets the 1

CJ with 30/5/7 and Trey with 14 and 8 boards


CJ/Trey combined 10 of 21 from 3

Unless I missed something, we have no more back to backs and exactly 1 day off for every game the rest of the season.

I based my original magic # projection off the wrong team

after correcting my mistake... my new belief is our current magic # is either 4 or 5 to guarantee postseason play (at least a play-in game)

Probably less than that because there's no way Houston goes undefeated the rest of the way. I say 2 more wins should realistically guarantee it.

magic number is total number of our wins + Houston losses

so it's any combo of 5 Pelicans wins & Rockets losses

I looked at it 3 times, didn't see it. But just wasn't fully confident I was correct lol.

I'm not questioning what the official numbers say we need to do to guarantee a play in spot. I just don't buy Houston winning the rest of the way to force anything like that. They will lose games when they run into teams fighting hard for positioning in the final week of March and into April.

I honestly would love Houston pushing the Lakers/warriors out of play-in and the national media lose their shite lol

That’s irrelevant by now. We’re only concerned with avoiding the play-in altogether and making the WCFs at this point

I understand that... I still like following to officially clinching... it gives me an extra layer of investment
