It’s just entertainment at this point without the hope.
Who doesn't make the playoffs:

Warriors, Rockets, Spurs, Mavericks, Blazers, Clippers, Nuggets, Lakers, Jazz


These teams could potentially make the playoffs in the east:
Kings, Pelicans, Timberwolves, Thunder
This Wolves roster isn't good enough for the playoffs in the East.

I'll eat my hat if they finish better than the #8 seed in the East.
I like their roster more than some teams in the east... some teams that will probably be in playoff contention.

I have 33 wins. Does that get it done?

What do you think?

Me saying "I think these teams could potentially make the playoffs in the east" isn't the same thing as "33 wins would get a team into the east" .. if the Wolves were in the east, they could win more than 33 games. Do you agree or disagree?

Yes.

Probably about 39 wins in the East. That may get it done.

East schedule is easier but we won’t get to play it.

You know that, right?

I hope you have a webcam! I want to see this hat eaten. I guess we can allow you to dress it up with ketchup or steak sauce, whatever condiments you so desire.
