A Spurs win today and then subsequent losses without White would be ideal. But think the Pelicans are going to come back now.

So many important games today

Lets all hope Embiid balls out and the Sixers beat the Blazers. If so, we control our own destiny and can make the playoffs. Just have to win out.

We all Sixer fans today

I think the Memphis game is just a little important, as a loss would keep some small hope alive that they lose out. Still, hard to believe they won't win one of these last three.

But the Blazers game is huge. We need them to lose. The Mavs might decide to rest up in their second-to-last game, and the Blazers' matchup against the Nets should be a gimme.

Who are you hoping to play in the play in game(s) if we make it?

Personally I'm confident against anyone right now. Just want a chance.

Totally agree with this! I just want us to make the play in and have a shot.

I think Sixers and Mavs games will be tough. The Mavs might be more motivated after losing to us last time, however, they have been a team we've played well against overall, though Luka seems to live at the line quite often.

Then the Sixers have been tough. I know Simmons is out but they are still tough and Embiid will be a handful. Their only loss was to the Pacers in that TJ 53 point game....they wouldn't go away no matter how unconscious he was shooting.

The grizzlies' last game scares me. The bucks will likely rest their core players and it's hard to pin our play-in hopes on the grizzlies losing a critical game against a bunch of end of bench guys.

Portland losing tonight would be huge.

Agree. We can't rely on the very last game. On the flip side, the Mavs might also take it easy on us for the same reason, making 8-0 more likely. If we can just control our own destiny...

[bwgood77]

Damn, look at the SOS of the teams in the hunt for that last spot..

I just want 8-0 to get us in. If we lose a game or two fair enough it was an amazing run. I'll be pretty frustrated if 8-0 doesnt even get us in

and look how easy the schedule of new orleans is, and they will still not make it.

So if the 8th seed wins it's over but if the 9th seed wins the 8th seed gets a rematch?

Luka out Monday on the first night of a b2b for the mavs. Makes it more likely he plays Tuesday vs Portland

[SunsLyf3]

Now we just need a Portland loss today and we're in business.

Not great, Blazers play Mavs after sixers. If Blazers win tonight we going to be relying on Griz to lose.

I want to play the Grizzlies, because (1) Dame scares me (and whipped Jevon pretty good whenever they were matched up), (2) JJJ is out, and (3) poetic justice:

I thought our losses to the Grizz were catalysts for our poor showing this season. JV whipped Deandre, and Brooks bested Devin. Right now, Devin's playing like a man possessed and I think he'd go ham against the Grizz. My guess is we've watched a lot of film on those Grizz games and we'll come up with a good game plan to go against them. Finally, it would be a great opportunity for me to publicly wonder before the game whether Brandon Clark is better than Devin Booker.
