There are the 11 games until the trade deadline. I see 2 lotto teams in the Spurs and Rockets and we're probably underdogs in every other game besides the Wovles tonight, who are a mediocre team on a b2b. Hopefully we dont win more than 3 games and that will force the FO's hands. Worst case scenario i going .500 here and the FO thinking we can make a push with a weaker schedule to end the year

I highly doubt our FO, who is recognized in the league as one of the best, will be content making the playin tournament for a very small chance to make the playoffs, then to just get destroyed by one of the Bucks or Celtics. I remember Masai talking about that Tampa season in the summer following it, and he mentioned something along the lines of what's the point of making the playin tournament.

The team won't even need to rest players like they did in that Tampa season with this upcoming schedule either

we need to start resting guys asap imo. I dont think we can afford another month of playing our full team while every goddamn team we face is missing half their roster

How was this t-wolves game sanctioned??? Silver should have had it cancelled and rescheduled

I'm hoping the Lakers don't lose too many games so that when Anthony Davis rejoins the team, they can start making up some ground. Same with the Suns and Booker.

No Gobert, no Kat, Edwards playing hobbled, Timberwolves on a 2nd night of a back to back. Tough one for the tank.

Update

(17-23)

Jan 10 - Charlotte - W (18-23)
Jan 12 - Charlotte - W (19-23)
Jan 14 - Atlanta - W .... Loss (19-24)
Jan 16 - @ NY - L .... Win (20-24)
Jan 17 - @ Milwaukee - L (20-25)
Jan 19 - @ Minnesota - L … Win (21-25)

Jan 21 - Boston - L
Jan 22 - NY - W
Jan 25 - @ Sacramento - L
Jan 27 - @ G.S. - L
Jan 28 - @ Portland - L
Jan 30 - @ Phoenix - L
Feb 1 - @ Utah - W
Feb 3 - @ Houston - W
Feb 5 - @ Memphis - L
Feb 8 - San Antonio - W

Feb 9 = Trade Deadline.

7-9 record as per above (24-32). But lets say we get 2 extra wins and go 9-7 instead, we would be (26-30).

To put things in perspective on Feb 9 of last year (deadline was Feb 10), our record was 30-23.
