When ESPN had the updated standings a while ago (and when made the post), GS was in the five spot.

regardless of what espn shows, you had to know that if Clippers win today, they are locked as 5th. that was the whole point of tanking today

Crazy that Lue was checking score of another live game lol


He also posted their odds of advancing to second round had they lost, regardless of what happened in other games...taking all those odds into consideration, even the risky play in games, and the odds were almost twice as good for them to advance if they lost.

Of course these are subjective odds.

Would be funny if the Kings actually won against the Warriors.


People are stupid. That team is really good.

How did Bazley look today vs the Clips?

Kings players aren't super experienced in the post season.

Kings had 8 players play 72+ games, so their record is based on a VERY relatively healthy roster compared to many other teams whose records are based on best up rosters and have another gear. The Kings as far as we know don't have another gear.

Kings are a bottom 6 defense in the NBA. They have an amazing offense, but opposing good teams can keep up with scoring against their defense while believing they can strategize better on defense then the Kings are capable of.

This doesn't mean they are easy, but based on the choices available, yes, it does make sense that teams would prefer the Kings.
