Wolves Playoff Seeding Race Thread

[weimy froob]

sunday's game going to determine 8th/9th seed?

[T_J]

It’s all setting up to play Denver in round 1. Connolly and Gobert vs his old team.

Gentleman sweep inbound.

[weimy froob]

something's gotta give in tonight's lakers/clippers game. i guess there's still an outside chance for the wolves to move up to sixth.

Yeah that's a huge game. Both teams with the same record.

It's close, but a lot of things would need to go right to grab 6 now.

GS - at SAC, at POR (1-1)
LAC - Lakers, POR, at PHX (1-2)
LAL - Clippers, PHX, UTA (2-1)
NOP - MEM, NY, at MIN (1-2)
MIN - at SAS, NOP (2-0)

If it were to play out that way...

#5 GSW - 43-39
#6 LAL - 43-39
#7 MIN - 42-40
#8 LAC - 42-40
#9 NOP - 41-41

That assumes the Lakers beating the Clippers, but even if it went the other way we'd still have the tiebreaker to grab #7.

GM and the guy he bet the farm on vs the GMs former team the Nugz.


Is the slogan for next year unfinished business or hey lets beat the teams that are tanking thanks.

lol I thought it was just a typo of Conley - since both Mike and Rudy were on Jazz

Yeah I should have edited but was too lazy.

Our shit GM and his horrible trade prize vs his old team is what I meant.

Grizzlies (NBA) always looking for ways to fuck us over.

[witljon]

We can lose out and still be in the play in.

Like Phil Mackey said, the wolves Chris Clinched last night. LFG!

[boxter432]

Scores lookin good so far.

Mem beating NOP in the 4th
Dal losing (more just funny to see them miss the playoffs)

Plenty of time left in both though.

And Pels cut the lead in half quickly.
Guess I jinxed it lol.

Edit: lol whoever Murphy is just hit 3 straight threes and NOP down by 3 after being down like 14.

NO and Dal now up by 4 each.

[thinktank]

Yikes. Pelicans made 5 or 6 threes in a row. No 2s. They’re hot. Fuck.

[YBBR]

Go Clippers!

[Billy Ray]

Pelicans look like they're going to win.

Those Fuckers

[YBBR]

Man the Lakers and Clippers are tied in the standings now? Christ

[Billy Ray]

Pelicans look like they're going to win.

Those Fuckers

Wow, they came back and tied it.

[boxter432]

lol intentional missed FT, rebound, fouled, hit 2 FTs to tie with .4 to tie it

[YBBR]

I am so sick of Mark Jackson.

[boxter432]

well thats that. Grizz getting hammered in OT. Trey Murphy somehow dominating lol

[YBBR]

Lakers have 2 games left Vs. Suns, Vs. Jazz

Clippers have 2 games left vs. Blazers, @ Suns

Wolves own both tiebreakers.

After this head to head matchup.

[YBBR]

I think Clippers winning would be preferable in this Lakers game. I could see the Lakers dropping both games remaining games more easily. Facing both the Suns and a decent Jazz team. Clippers still have a gimme with the Trailblazers left.

Yep.

Pels play Knicks, who have nothing to play for.
