Just get rid of all expectations. It's liberating.

It’s unfortunate but we went from a possible 5 seed to likely the 9th with one injury. We had little depth before. Now we have zero depth. Coaching still sucks.

Putting up a mock draft would be better cause we will be a lotto team

That’s big. It’s about time OKC lost they’ve only had like 5 losses since the end of November (exaggeration)

Tbh the way we've played minny this year in glad we're not going to get the fifth spot (assuming their fourth).

I think once Hill comes back we will be okay against Minny.

Liggins, Hill and Holiday can all rotate to contain Butler and Wiggins.
Do that and you at least have a fighting chance.

Too much for just Jrue.

6. blazers 31- 26
7. nuggets 30- 26
8. PELICANS! 29- 26
9. clippers 28- 26
10. jazz 28- 28

last 10:
blazers 6- 4
nugs 7- 3
pels 5- 5
clips 5- 5
jazz 9- 1

jazz are rolling, they are going to get in. pels are 14- 19 in the west and hold no tiebreakers currently. i think this is going to be as simple as the jazz knock the pels out, and thats that

Where does the offense come from if you swapped Hood and Johnson for Crowder? That's swapping roughly 25 ppg for at best 15 ppg. I think Snyder has earned a spot in the list of difference making coaches, but they still seem like they shouldn't have enough to make a run.

They're going to be relying on Mitchell for an even bigger piece of their offense. If he hits a rookie wall they'll be in some trouble.

With the way the records look now we'd be 5/6 seed if Boogie's Achilles didn't hate the city of New Orleans.


I'm basketball depressed sons.
