Ye.We love to talk about tank games so this is one more thread.

Let's take a look to the Lakers


They can only be the 3rd seed. We only have to win a couple of games and they can't catch us

They are resting Kobe who could no play more in the regular season so it seems they aren't really worried about the 3rd seed.

Would they want to face OKC in the second round?? Clippers won last 2 games vs OKC so it wouldn't be a bad option for the Lakers if both teams meet in the second round.It seems Lakers match us a lot better.

Then these are the best scenaries for them.

1.OKC
2.SA
3.LAL
4.LAC

1.SA
2.OKC
3.LAC
4.LAL


In tonight's game and the next game in SA they are playing for the 3rd seed but they could be playing to send us to the 2nd seed as well.

They should win both games or either lose both games against us.

If we win tonight we have a big chance to be the 1st seed so it wouldn't be a surprise if they lose more games to be 4th.



It will be funny if nobody want to win the last games of the regular season

If they do that, then they'll get Memphis in the 1st round.

Yeah, not sure they'd do it because of Memphis sittin at 5.

Memphis is a hell of a lot better than Denver or Dallas who will be 6.
