Knew as soon as we lost that game that it was gonna come back and bite us in the ass. Spurs completely threw that game away and it’s likely gonna cost them a shot at the 8-spot.

one extra thing to root for: Denver to lose to LAC tomorrow so they can lock into the 3rd seed
if Dallas sees it can catch Utah to avoid LAC, they will try their hardest against Phoenix too assuming they beat Portland tonight
Yup. If I did the math right, Dallas would finish with a 0.600 win% if they beat both Portland and Phoenix, while Utah would finish with a 0.597 win% if they lose to the Spurs.

Are we pretty much eliminated with Portland win?
Good call.
Really needed Portland to lose because now Dallas won’t play anyone vs suns
It better not come down to the team we need to go 0-2 goes 1-1 and the teams we only need 1 loss from don't lose...

Spurs are never lucky. Dallas looking like , looks like Portland is gonna take it.

If Portland wins, the Spurs need two of Portland/Phoenix/Memphis to lose their last game, along with beating the Jazz.
If Portland loses, the Spurs just need one of Phoenix and Memphis to lose.
It's looking pretty grim though. We need to root for Dallas hard, and to me that feels a bit dirty.
That loss to the Sixers gonna bite the spurs in the ass
One thing for sure ... its wide open and all to play for in the last day.
All 4 teams can finish at 8th 9th or out of the bubble.
Dallas' baseline defense is crap...
Memphis is loosing tonight but Spurs fate is in Mavs’ hands. If Dalla loses tonight Portland has it as they won’t lose vs Brooklyn’s bench in the last game. Implications go further as a Mavs L tonight means their last game vs Phoenix is irrelevant for them.
So if Mavs lose tonight, then Spurs are virtually out.
No issue with the Spurs missing out on the playoffs tbh. Pop's coaching pre-bubble shouldn't be rewarded with a playoff appearance tbh, regardless of how they've played in the bubble.
Dallas sucks ass outside of Luka Porzingis is soft as
