Nah they still have 1 more loss than Suns & Pels. Sacramento will beat the Nets. Lakers actually drop to 9th with an L tonight or stay 8th with a W.


I dont mean immediately. I think Suns drop at least one and Lakers win out (or at least have a great shot to win out) and they play Pel's last game of the season. If they win tonight, they almost control their own destiny for 6th (Suns got Clips b2b, Kings and then Wolves...cant see them going 4-0 there, but who knows)

This officiating is pathetic. Phantom fouls against the Knicks.

Brunson is so damn good. Superstardom isn't far off if he can do this in the playoffs and win a series or two.

Interesting to see Spurs without 2nd-best player (Vassell) and another starter (Sochan) playing once again very quality basketball.

Wemby's jupmshot is SMOOTH, mechanics-wise.

Not even a joke. The Knicks could’ve easily been in the ECF if Randle was healthy. They could still make it, but it’ll be a little harder.
