Spurs 4 game losing streak. They could lose last 8 games looking at their schedule and still make the play in game with a 12 game losing streak.
Cause I don’t think the pelicans will win more than 2 games out of their last 6 looking at their schedule
That would be the oddest thing to have a team on a 12 game losing streak in the play in game.

He's a really good defender though. He's not an offensive player but he's being relied on to be one. Tough position for him.

Spurs are this bad. Utah is good but not this good specially not without Mitchell AND Conley

Ant-Man is serous. 42 pts, 17/22 fg, 6 rebs, 7 assists, 8/9 from three...no free throws. Bonkers.

Well don't bet on it. The Pelicans turning the damn lights out on Steph was too funny not gonna lie. Dude was killing them and could've banished that team into the shadow realm. Their schedules are brutal and to add insult to injury if both teams were tied the Spurs would be in due to winning the season series 2-1. Here's the schedule for both teams and Sacramento who somehow could get into the play-in if all falls to plan:
SA: NO: SAC:
@Sac @PHI vs SA
@Por @CHA vs OKC x2
vs Mil @MEM @MEM x2
@BRK @DAL @ Utah
@NY @GS
vs PHX x2 @LAL
I can't believe I'm saying this, but somehow if the Kings beat the Spurs, they could easily beat the Thunder who will crank up the tank to levels we haven't seen since the cold war and the kings could somehow make the play-in which would be like winning a damn title considering their playoff drought. Most likely they'd be curb stomped by whoever is the 9th seed in the play in.
With Brandon Ingram being ruled out for Friday's game vs Philly with an ankle injury, it's really gonna be rough for NOLA and barring any unforeseen scoring punch from the bench which has been a season long issue it's gonna be brutal.

Re: 5-4-21 NBA Tuesday GT (7 games)
I'd never bet on Sacramento to make the playoffs. Everytime we "should" win, we go on a big losing streak. But assuming fox/barnes are healthy going into the play-in, it certainly won't be a curb stomping. We've played the warriors well this year. In a 1 game series, anything can happen.slicedbread2 wrote:GSP wrote:Spurs are gonna drop out of the play in at this rate!! Their schedule is BRUTAL. Wooooo!!

Would be interesting to see
7. Portland
8. Memphis
9. Gsw
10. Sac
Portland beats Memphis to get in. Kings go against gsw, and then possibly Memphis? An uphill battle, but if we even get in that means the teams rolling with the momentum.

I've kept saying, as an Orlando Magic fan, that the Nuggets system is helping Gordon more than the other way around. He's definitely worse than Jerami Grant and probably not even on par with the Nuggets version of Gary Harris.
He's not even slowing LeBron James, Devin Booker, Kawhi Leonard, Paul George, Luka Doncic etc. let alone stopping them and his FT's are below average.
The Greatest of All Time debate in basketball is essentially who has the greatest basketball resume of the player who has the best highlights instead of who is the best player

I have been preaching its to early to give up on Bagley all season. A lot of fans on the trade board disagree by a landslide.

Yea I've maintained hes going to end up being a very good player. My thinking is it won't really happen in Sacramento, and its not necessarily his fault, just a lot of overlap going on right now.
He and Barnes like the ball in the same spot on offense. Combine that with Fox primarily looking to attack the basket, and Holmes playing inside the key, its just not a whole lot of spacing. When all these guys are on the court together, hes forced to stand on the 3pt line. Then when he gets the ball, he either has to shoot the 3, or try to beat his man from the 3pt line. A recipe for disaster.
The last few days hes been doing better without Barnes, and I think that is the main thing here. The team imo really has a decision to make between Bagley/Barnes this summer.
Id say if Bagleys value is as low as its perceived on this board (I dont think it is, but for the sake) then we should move Barnes. Id like to see Barnes in NY, Portland, SA, Boston, Miami, Washington, Dallas, Indiana I think all of these teams could use a player with his skill set.

He was compared to Bosh during the draft and I still like his chances of 18/8 or so. He has to start staying on the floor though.
