Stretch Run: Top 5 odds still within reach?

What would be the overall assessment on possibly regaining a top 5 spot as we approach the stretch run?
- Is our schedule too easy?
- Do Philly or Brooklyn have upcoming wins we can pray on?
- May we see Management finally shutting down guys like Poeltl?
I am still completely blown away at how bad we've blown this late in the year.
Management had 1 job, a single losing season to add a final top pick to this core.
Isnt this a rebuild? we already lost a top 8 pick last season and big picture we need atleast one more core piece = long term true contender/ avoid a treadmill future
Is there still hope for increasing our odds in this final stretch?
What is the overall assessment or cards at play with weeks remaining

No chance the depth 9-16 is much better than the other teams.

Who do you guys want at 4-6? Outside of VJ who has T-Rex arms nobody stands out to me.

VJ is going to go earlier most likely and that's good for us.
I would probably go for Fears, Maluach, or Queen outside the top 6.

Philly and Brooklyn would lose 5 in a row if they were playing in the G League. No chance.
I REALLY hope Philly drops down to the 7 pick and loses their pick.

Let it go lol the teams below us want to tank just as bad, if not worse.
It’s merely about holding onto 7th and praying lightening strikes twice to jump into the top 4 again. That’s the ONLY way we’ll be moving up.

Our 3rd string guys are better than the 3rd string guys on the other tanking teams, and we're playing other tanking teams a lot. Having either Brooklyn or Philly pass us seems extremely unlikely. The goal at this point should be to not accidentally pass Miami or San Antonio. Other than that, I wouldn't worry too much about this last part of the season.

We're locked into 7-8. As of tonight the spurs are our biggest competition for 7th.
Almost zero chance of getting to 6th. Philly and Nets have far far harder schedules.

No clue. It's time for Masai to earn his contract with a homerun pick.
