OG +/- god squeaks by with a +4 so 21 games straight of positive net rating with a new team...

...but the real truth about +/- in the game is that Sims +13 and Mitch -9, no other context needed, the box says it all

Not if there is a 3 way tie. We fall 4

But why if we won the season series against the Cavs?

Cavs will get the division against the bucks. The division holds more wait it seems. Then it's us vs bucks and we lose tie breaker bc of the season series

Because they win their division in that case... which supercedes our season series win

What I learned from this game....

Mikal Bridges' super power is... Invisibility

Burks....

OG made himself laugh trying to act tough.

Sims is better than Mitch :lol:

Orlando can end up 5th or 6th... how it that zero chance?

doing the math and the games that are likely to be wins

Indy over ATL (ATL with nothing to play for)
CLE over CHA (CHA with nothing to play for)
Philly over BRK (BRK with nothing to play for)

so that leaves us vs CHI (we likely win with CHI with nothing to play for they are locked into 9)

so that leaves the MIL/ORL game. If we win...regardless of that result we probably face philly and not ORL

MIL wins (which means ORL losses) Philly goes to the #6 seed and jumps ORL
ORL wins (which means MIL losses) we go to the #2 seed but Philly stays at #7 because of tiebreakers.

To miss the Sixers in that scenario the Knicks need the Pacers to slip up and lose...that 3 way tie and Magic-Bucks game weirdly triangulates the Knicks for a head on collision with the Sixers unless one of those two lose their game. Unless the Knicks are 3rd then Magic at 6 in the 3way tie scenario.

It's all jacked up twisted around I can barely see any of it clearly...

Absolutely love OG checking Cam there.

Brunson 11ast 0 TOs...what's that assist to turnover ratio? It has to be a quantum number, right?

Even though ATL has no reason to win, I think they would make an excellent spoiler, one of the few teams with a pace that could match Indy....it could turn out to be a shoot out at the ok Corral.

Atlanta is going to be in the play in, they're trying to get Trae minutes, I don't think it's a given that Indy wins that game. They brought Trae back these last 3 games of the season, they're serious about trying to make the 8th seed so I'd expect them to try and play that game seriously in an attempt to prepare for the play in.

Good to know...they gave Minny a game on the road. That would be ideal..if indy losses then Philly would go all the way up to #5. I think in that scenario Indy would go into the play in vs MIA and that would be our OPP.

But I still think % wise Philly is our most likely opponent...I don't see Thibs not going all in on 50 wins and trying to get the #2 seed even if it means Philly.
