GAME #72: LAC (44-27) @ SIXERS (39-33) WED 3/27—4:30 PM, ESPN

Brutal schedule continues with 3 games in 4 days--a cross-country flight right after a back-to-back----but it's the last East Coast trip of the year. Just trying to survive at this point. I mean, this really is a joke.

That which does not kill me makes me stronger.

the math is now Mavs need to finish 8-2, Clippers 6-5 for Dallas to finish above LA.

LAC still has Philly, Orlando, Sacramento, Denver, Cleveland, and Phoenix twice.

We play in Philly tonight and then fly to Orlando, Charlotte and cross-country to Sacramento before returning home to face the Nuggets. We also lost last 5 home games we played, maybe a road-trip is what this team needs.

Well, ESPN matchup predictor is giving us a 67% chance of victory :lol: , maybe they know something we don't...

Mavs could win their next 10 games or go 9-1 over their remaining 10. Clips just need to string together some wins. While I wouldn't want to see Luka in Round 1, it may be inevitable. Dallas will have a lot of say over their last 10 games of determining who gets the #10 spot. They have 2 games left vs both GS and Hou.

I’m gonna stay in the positive because I like our chances on the road over being at Crypto. We suck at home.

I’ll give a try and see what kind of effort they give. Have a feeling I’ll be checking out for some healthy exercise instead.

They've had us heavy favorites and we aren't man enough to take the win. I wouldn't take any of these lines seriously other than what a failure it would be if we don't win...fingers crossed...

Harden trying way too hard.

Leonard and PG bricking shots.

PG lazy passes.

This team needs to figure out how to move when Leonard double/triple teamed. :banghead:

Oubre in PG’s head. Unbelievable.

Leonard side of the backboard.

Yeah. I’m out.

This is gonna be a 1-3 road trip. I think this team is still good enough to beat the Hornets.

How the hell does the big 3 score a total of 5 points in one quarter? Pathetic

They aren't "big" anymore, they're just old.

Yeah not sure what’s up with his shot lately. Hopefully second half he finds a groove

Kawhi didn't play all of the 3rd, so hopefully he comes into 4th early and stops the early 4th quarter collapses.

Shooting terrible from the field and terrible from the line, but down just 4.

I like PG driving but man nasty shot. Kawhi needs to step up

Just attack the rim here. Go for the tie.
