So interesting the Heat are taking, can't they still move into 6th?
Portland's been sitting players blatantly for a while.
Dallas should have done the same.
Only the Spurs got fined for whatever the eff.

In case there were any doubts to whether the Mavs are now in full tank mode.
Rockets 108
Hornets 101
1:50 left
Dallas probably cost themselves around an 30% increased chance at the top 4 because they were pushing for the playoffs. Instead Portland will get rewarded for doing the same gross they do every year.
Rockets won, putting them back in jeopardy of tying the Spurs if Dallas can't "win" the tank-off in the finale.
SVI MYKHAILIUK with 2 trey attempts for the tie and OT.
Brick Brick.
Rockets win! Rockets win!
Houston actually pulled it off!! Whoa!!
Thank you Houston, for putting this forum into turmoil, for the third time over the benefits of positions 2 and 3.
I want to see that coin flip
Yep.
Weird game for the Heat to decide to throw.
Could have stayed 1/2 game behind the Nets for 6th.
And the Nets were virtually guaranteed a win as they are played the 100 tanking Orlando Magic.
lol rockettes
You probably never will.
Dallas got eliminated in the playoffs with lost to Bulls. They’d be all out to tank now to protect that 10th place
Spurs play Dallas at 3:30 pm Sunday while Houston will be playing Washington at 1:00 pm
so The Spurs will know Houston's final record before their last game.
How so? They are only one game back of OKC.
Dallas gave away today's game when they still had a solid chance of making the play in. I think the only way we lose on sunday is if Pop & Brown to suit up to play. And even then I'm not sure.
Dallas wants the Play In or Dallas wants the 10th pick?
Does anyone really know?
Is it wrapped up in Flat Earthers mind?
OKC has the tie-breaker. Mavs are officially eliminated.
So far it's like this:
1st rounder: finish 2/3, pick will be in the 1-7 range
2nd round (own): pick will be in the 32-33 range
2nd round (Toronto): provided the Lakers win the game they're playing right now (up 7 going into the 4th against an all scrub Phoenix team), pick will be in the 41-45 range (so far OKC & Chicago with 39 wins, Toronto & Minnesota with 40 wins, and Atlanta with 41 wins).
How disappointed are you going to be if the Spurs make it to the coin flip and win for #2?
Both only got 1 game left. In the event Dallas wins, and OKC losses, OKC has the tie advantage securing them the 10th place.
We get that pick if the ABC/Disney Lakers complete the win tonight?
If they win they'll be at 42 wins and Toronto can't catch them with 1 game left, so it's 45 at worst (depending on the last game). If they lose it could be 46 also.
Toronto is playing their last game against Milwaukee, who will surely rest their starters, so I think that will leave them at 41 wins. That would put them above OKC & Chicago, making picks 41 & 42 unreachable.
Atlanta plays Boston and they likely rest their starters, so they should win. That would put them at 42 wins, also making pick 45 out of reach.
Minnesota has 2 games left: us & NOLA. I'm thinking they win the former and lose the latter, so they'll also be at 41 wins. That would have us tied for 43/44, which is my best guess at the moment.

Where were the Raptors when we made the trade? The SRP was around 38 or so? They moved up into playoff range, at least. Not sure if overall it was the right move, but they didn't give up too much for Poeltl.
