Milwaukee may have nothing to play for if the first seed is wrapped up.

He doesn't care, it's OP's thing.

Also, Milwaukee almost certainly rests Giannis unless Bud does us a solid and lets him play 25 minutes.

What?

Personally I can't wait for the Bucks and Warriors Finals. Two really good teams going at it.

I am almost sure we will have 7th seed due to OKC schedule. They definitely will have 2 losses. We will lose to Washington but I can see wins against Cavs and Dallas imo. And Denver team is not that impossible to be beaten.

Bucks will most likely rest players against OKC. There’s a chance Blake Griffin won’t play tonight because of his knee. So Houston may be the only loss on their remaining schedule.

They’re putting Lonnie in already?

Spurs on 6. Dubs implode and KD walks to the Big Apple.

Bud would help his old boss and beat OKC at home.

The Spurs have the tiebreaker against OKC. Which means if they 3-0, i am convinced they have the 7the seed. 2-1 could also be sufficent.

OKC has to play against a Detroit Team that is fighting for a playoff spot and a Minnesota Team which is not worse than Detroit can put up a challenge. Rockets will play 100% if they can play against the 7th seed. I think they would rather play against the Spurs/Thunder than against Clippers/Jazz.

Which means: Spurs going 3-0 is more likely than OKC going for 3-1.

7th Seed should be sure.

Agreed

If it's okay, I'll go ahead and write the thread. That way you guys can just cut and paste.


Pop isn't starting Poeltl? WTF?

White scored the first 6 points, and Pop put in Patty. :bang

Aldridge is so soft. They should trade him for a bag of chips this offseason.

This whole team is so damn soft.

Kawhi for DeFrozen is the worst trade in NBA history.

Great shot by Forbes!

Forbes you asshole. How about playing some defense?

I like Rudy Gay, but he's washed up.

Oh FFS that wasn't a foul!!!! Golden State is nothing without help from the refs.

:rollin Pop trying to get himself ejected again, so he doesn't have to watch this shit show.

When was the last time Bertans hit a damn shot? Blow this shit up.

The lead is down to 14. We got this. Book it.

A. Spurs 3-0 with two games away? highly unlikely, and 2-1 won't cut it.
B. Most probably OKC will go 3-1. You can already pencil in the game vs Bucks, and Houston probably will have nothing to play for by that time too. They will lose one between MIN and DET, just because.

The Wizards are definitely actually tanking cause they are tied in a 4 team tie at 47 losses and it affects their odds dramatically to lose out their remaining schedule.

The Hawks for example and the Cavs we are playing next are NOT tanking cause their lottery odds are set.

Dallas,simillarly to the Wizards should also be tanking to come out on top (or bottom actually) of the tie.(Their pick is top5 protected,pretty good chance they keep it this year)

In other words Cavs should be more dangerous than the Wizards.

In other words,if we lose against Washington we're even more worthless than we've shown in the last games.

Or are people still excited over maintaining a playoff streak like Blazer fans did to comfort themselves after getting playoffs wrecked back in the day?

Hell, moving up 1 or 2 spots in the draft is well worth missing the playoffs and some meaningless streak.

Nope. None of that. Bud has a championship to try to win.
