Its impossible. SAC will play with PHO and NOLA. Someone will win in any case

We just need 1 of those outcomes to get to 8. 2 of those outcomes gets us to 7.

Thursday should be interesting. Dubs obviously gotta handle business against Portland, but all the other teams could essentially remove themselves from this list with a win. Hard to decide who to root for in SAC/NO game since either outcome has different paths to the 8 seed.

I can't believe there's only 3 games left in the season, seemed to go by fast.

With Sacto and Lakers both stumbling a bit (and AD's health questionable), and Phoenix not playing the best ball either, they definitely have a shot now to avoid the lower play-in bracket.

I think sac to lose 2 is the most likely outcome. Can’t rely on the lakers to win the last game when it doesn’t mean anything for them.

Seems like the clippers are punting tonight’s game. So pho is unlikely to be caught

surprises me how much analysts don't keep up with the rules.... happened earlier this year where TNT crew basically never took the time to understand the in season tournament... then last night they were all talking about how the goal should be to get either the 7th or 9th spot so they can be the home team... uhhh being 9th has to not only win at home, but then go on the road to win again. 8th is twice as good as being 9th.

On Jan 27, GSW lost to LAL in double OT and fell to 19-24. Since then they have gone 25-11.

We've also won 8 out of our last 9.

Terrible coaching job and Klay sucks.

To hammer that point home - the vast majority of those games have been on the road and this last stretch since the minnesota game has been an absolute nightmare in terms of travel. Just for reference, 25-11 is a 57 win pace.

Yes if they somehow get out of the play-in and don’t have to play Denver next then kudos to Klay and Kerr for things coming together at the right time.

If not then criticism still is due Kerr at least imo for not having finished with a higher seeding, the poor record earlier in the season was obviously impacted by injuries and suspensions but they still lost a number of games at the death often despite having had significant leads and that is partly on Kerr, again imo.

Down 1 point at half time. Disappointing that the Clippers have rested their best players. You’d have to think that KD and Booker will get the Suns over the line.

Clips up 2 with 5 left in the 3rd. Wild!! Keeping our 7th seed hopes alive

Yuck I turned it on for 2 min.

Haven’t watched the Suns much this season but something if off there.

Why the Clippers weren’t playing more through Bones Hyland late in the 4th was confusing.

Obviously didn’t want to see GSW in sixth.

With the suns win, it's down to 8th IF:

Dubs win out.

Kings need to lose 2 of 3 (vs pels, suns, and blazers).

Pels need lose out (kings, dubs, lakers).

Warriors and LA win out.
Pho and NOP lose out.
Sac loses to Por.

5 way tie. GS gets 6ths seed based on combined winning percentage vs the tied teams.

Dray & Klay both questionable versus Portland.
