What's new

14th Tank Platoon

Big, big games tonight.

NO @ UTA
ORL @ CHA
DET @ BKN
PHI @ BOS
DAL @ LAL (sigh wanted a DAL win for the GS race but the LAL win is clearly more important)

Also :

DEN @ MEM
PHO @ POR
SAC @ GS

This will give Utah some seperation and close the gap between ORL and UTA for the 3rd pick pre lottery.
 
^^
Orlando's schedule is about equal to Utah's. I don't see them making up a 2-game gap. But if Utah can lose their remaining 7 games, you never know!

Detroit is likely out of reach. The good news is they play Boston tomorrow on a back-to-back. And the Pistons are motivated to tank. Their pick is top-8 protected, IINM. They need to fall another spot (behind Sacramento) just in case a team from 9-14 gets lucky in the lottery.

As for the Lakers, yep, have to cheer for them. They have a brutal schedule to finish. They need to pull off a surprise victory somehow against a WC playoff team or @ Utah.

I agree. It is unlikely but still possible. I say about a 20% chance that Utah ties them now. I'm pulling for every little thing. Utah would have to lose the rest of their games to have any shot of that.
 
Let's put it like this:
I think it's more likely Utah loses to Boston than that they catch up to Orlando
 
Don't give up yet. This is about the time in the game that Philly implodes.

Not tonight. Celtics down 10 with 2 minutes to go. 22 TO's, horrible 3 pt shooting and letting Philly get to the line twice as much as them. Jerks.
