I agree with you. Stupid tournament that hurts your regular season record. Magic are the real winners tonight. Vegas sucks anyway

Damn, first time in weeks I’ve been dissapointed watching basketball and the Magic didn’t even play haha.

Hopefully the guys come out pissed off that they didn’t get an opportunity and keep the streak going for another two weeks!

He’s been great lately, and I don’t really care too much if we miss this, but this situation is all on Mosley not being prepared and understanding the tournament rules. In that Brooklyn game he put in the deep bench against their starters at the end and we gave up like 12 straight points in the last minute. That came back to bite us.

The whole setup is dumb and skewed towards the last night of games.

All of the coaches are aware. The NBA scheduling back to backs with these games is making it so coaches are forced to choose between potentially arbitrary or important point differential versus the potential for injury. WCJ got hurt on the last play of the game.

Well, we got shafted. Or we shafted ourselves, depending on how you look at it.

Always didn't love the point differential system. Hate it even more now.
