So mathematically, magic number for the Suns is 1. Here’s hoping they go all out today and rest tomorrow.
If clippers lose one more game and Warriors win out Dubs will be 5 seed. Hoping some scenario like that plays out.
I get the point but I find tweets like this to be a little too “lakers need all the breaks they can get” when really we’ve blown away everyone’s expectations since February with Lebron out most of that span. Still a back to back for them regardless.
And beyond this specific game / seeding implication – the fear specifically around Phoenix is getting silly. They are talented and completely unproven together and injury prone as hell. I’m not one of these hardos saying “lets not duck the smoke” because the 2/3 path is clearly easier but come on they aren’t the fucking 17 warriors or 14 spurs.
Nuggets are resting everyone
I think Lakers can win out plus a GSW loss…However, if someone winning the play-in and getting the 7th seed against MEM could be a consolation
or, hear me out, Suns **lose** to the Nuggets in a quadruple overtime
How about quintuple overtime or even octuple?
