2-3 is how the Pels will finish.

The moneyline for the Memphis game is -1700

2 wins should be minimum. They play a Warriors team playing for nothing and a Clippers team that could be eliminated by then.

Warriors didn’t need the win tonight but they played and won against OKC. Durant, Klay and Draymond all playing. If they decide to sit, which I hope they do, that should be a win. But knowing them all 3 of those guys will play.

Pels HAVE to win the next two or none of the other shite matters.

Durant probably had a say so on his playing time with him being up against OKC and Westbrook.

It's also more unlikely you start sitting today then lets say 2-3 games remaining.

Those guys haven’t had any time on the court together for a while. If I’m Kerr I’m getting each of them a minimum of 30 minutes/night just to get their legs and chemistry back.

It's pretty crazy that there are 6 teams that have legit shots at hosting a playoff game, or missing the playoffs with 5 games left to decide it.

That Clippers game will be huge. Assuming they beat Phoenix/Memphis, beating the Clippers gives them the tie breaker over the Clipps and hopefully enough wins to stay ahead of Denver who should go 2-2 at best in their last 4.

Our magic number vs the Clippers is 4 currently. If the Pels take care of business the next two games it'll be 2.

Assuming the Clippers lose to either the Jazz or Nuggets it'll be 1. Any combination of the Pels beating the Warriors or Clippers losing both games would eliminate them from the playoffs before we even face them.

More than likely they'll have a do or die game vs the Pels.

T-Wolves are done and won't make the playoffs without Jimmy Butler.

Nuggets will get that 7th or 8th spot.

last 15 games:

If they lose both games to the Nuggets, we will have problems.

Minny still has games against Memphis and the Lakers which they should win. If they lose both against the Nuggets (second game is @Min), they should be at 46 wins and the Nuggets would have at least 45 wins with both teams having the tiebreaker over us, we would need to get to at least 46 wins and possibly 47 wins if Den beats Por or LAC.

Which is kinda why I wanted the Spurs to win last night. Forcing Portland to try and win against Denver

Minny just listed Butler as doubtful for tomorrow’s game @Den.

Would certainly be interesting if he came back and a close to full strength Wolves played the hobbled Dubs in the first round
