8th consecutive playoff appearance. Would like to get that 8th consecutive 50-win season as well, but may choose to rest my guys to avoid injury just prior to playoffs. Decisions…

Thanks again for facilitating another great season Bish! Have a good night BaF, fam.

BaF sim power rankings doesn’t seem to agree tho (even when I have a slightly better record they still rank you above me).

Clips probably have a better margin of victory. We're a better offensive team and have a lot of blowouts but you shut me down last game. I don't take a lot of solace in those rankings and I think we matchup pretty even.

Congrats Orlando.

Congrats Orlando.

You're still ahead in the most important loss column. You still control your own destiny.
