If no change before the game, both Plumlee, Grant, Joseph, Ellington, McGruder and Smith will be rested against OKC.El Chivo wrote:ducler wrote:Now, we need to lose next game against Thunder.

It'll be very close. A lot closer than originally thought. I think I'm out that we'll finish top 3 anymore for what it's worth. It's 4th likely and then 5th somewhat likely and 6th and beyond unlikely but possible

Let the vets play against real competition - we'll still lose most of the time - and let the young ones develop otherwise and still have a chance to lose. A small one with just how hard OKC is tanking, but nonetheless...

I don't think the Pistons finishing ahead of OKC is crazy at all and in fact, I'd be really surprised if they don't. They'll be 3 games behind after they beat them tonight and I'm not convinced that SGA will return at all this season, they'll probably keep "re-evaluating" him the rest of the season, so I'd be surprised if they won more than 1 or 2 games.
I know a lot of you guys see them finishing 4th as the most likely outcome but it looks like 5th to me. The Pistons have an easy schedule down the stretch.

I’d say at this point our darkest timeline places us at 6th.
Our brightest in the bottom 3. I don’t think there’s any leeway there. Anything better or worse is nearly impossible.
