its no reason to tank through cause we already won too much to get a good lotto pick so might as well play hard and see what happens.

Dwight is a mess to watch lol.

Kemba body language looks like he’s ready to give up. I hope he doesn’t play Mr. Nice Guy in the exit interviews.

I am honestly in shock that with less than 3 min to go that Frank & Lamb were on the floor over MKG and Marv.
My picks:
2020 Draft (3rd pick) - Tyrese Haliburton, Devin Vassell, or Onyeka Okongwu
2021 Draft (11th pick) - Moses Moody

Agreed, If Miami beats the Suns tomorrow night we'll be 7 games out of the eighth seed with only 18 games left. The season is over, play the young guys!

And Cody was in over Dwight. That was the real shocker.

Clifford is definitely reaching desperate status when he deters from his stubbornness to do the right thing. The Raptors were just too much and in particular those two highly contested 3s made by Lowry and DeRozan down the stretch made all of the difference.

Not mathematically eliminated yet. I think they counted tonight’s game as a possible to likely loss on the remaining schedule as well as maybe 2 games against the Sixers.

They need to take us out of our misery. It’s emotionally demoralizing rooting for this team hoping you don’t get outcoached, a raw deal from the refs, and have to witness MCW.

Did the Hornets' production staff stay in America? They had our record wrong on the screen all game. Or were they just trying to keep people tuned in with false hope?

That was the most emotion I’ve seen from lamb after a basket and a foul in the 4th. He’s become confident in himself.

Its hard to imagine us getting back to .500 even in a best case scenario. Looking at the schedule, I'd put our cap at 12 wins in our remaining games, which would put us at 40-42. The thing is, I don't actually see us winning that many games and I don't even think a 41-41 record would get us into the playoffs. If we win every single remaining game against teams with a worse record than us, we still have to get three more wins in seven games against Philly (x3), Indiana (x2), Washington, and New Orleans, to finish 41-41. Like always, we've put ourselves into a position where we aren't going to make the playoffs and we have nothing to gain by winning or losing.

Maybe losing will get rid of Clifford.
