We absolutely need to beat GSW becasue I don't see us beating the clippers.

BUCKS comfy in the 2 spot is good for us. We want them to send their GL team against us in the final games so we can win and they rest their older players for the POs

You are right on with that. Let them lock that up so they can rest their main guys against us.

We are all MIL fans until they face us lol.

Their roster of Dame Khris Brook and even GA needs rest. If they see losing to us twice wont affect their seeding they might gp YOLO while we need every win cuz of the tight race.

Lakers/Pacers shaping up to be a good game

thelead · Post #105 » by **thelead** » Mon Mar 25, 2024 4:31 am

At least the Pacers lost

DiplomaticMagic · Post #106 » by **DiplomaticMagic** » Mon Mar 25, 2024 5:20 am

Pacers and Cavs lose, not terrible

Cavs vs Hornets should be Cavs W
Knicks vs Pistons seems to be Knicks easiest game left
Pacers vs Clippers, both teams lost, both in second night of back to backs

Bucks smashed OKC. They are team nobody should seek to face early in playoffs.

btw 76ers vs Clippers game was hilarious, 76ers couldn't miss shots. Clippers played some solid defense but didn't help.

MIL starting to ramp up to playofff intensity basketball.

Miami answering with the same. Looks like we can see them in our rear view mirror again.

IND seems young like we are. NYE and CLEV seems to have more then enough savy vets to win games when they need too.

What an interesting year.

Todays games of significance

Hornets @ Cavs
Pistons @ Knicks
Sixers @ Kings
Pacers @ Clippers

I thought Charlotte would be more competitive in their games but theyve been awful. The hawks beat them as bad as we did, so Im not counting on any help from Charlotte or Detroit.

Hopefully Kings will take care of business and Clippers bounce back from yesterday.

How rude of them to beat us and not the sixers if that happens.

As we thought no help from Charlotte or Detroit.

The Kings are destroying the Sixers.

And Pacers/Clippers is close but Pacers leading in 3rd qtr.

Clippers prob will blow this game, they play so dumb lol

DiplomaticMagic · Post #114 » by **DiplomaticMagic** » Tue Mar 26, 2024 4:25 am

Am I sleeping on Pacers? Theyve been looking kinda scary as of late.

thelead · Post #115 » by **thelead** » Tue Mar 26, 2024 4:26 am

Clippers are 3-5 in their last 8 and on track to lose this one too. We better take care of business against them this Friday.

Post #116 » by **SOUL** » Tue Mar 26, 2024 4:33 am

If Warriors lose to Pacers, Knicks, Miami before beating us and the Clippers lose to Philly again after losing to Indy and Philly already but beat us, I may not watch basketball ever again lol.

tooler · Post #117 » by **tooler** » Tue Mar 26, 2024 4:44 am

Hard to believe we have a 12-4 record since the all star break and it still feels like teams are breathing down our neck.

DiplomaticMagic · Post #118 » by **DiplomaticMagic** » Tue Mar 26, 2024 4:54 am

Not the best night for us. At least Kings took care of business.

Post #119 » by **SOUL** » Tue Mar 26, 2024 5:34 am

Pacers only 1 win back but 3 losses back which is more important at this point.

We really need to win this Warriors game. If we lose that, things get a bit dicey. I don't care about 3% odds or whatever for 7th seed, it's very possible lol.
