Hopefully that means Kyrie and Durant as well lol

That would be pretty hilarious if that happened.

At least we know the Nets wouldn't really care either way about having the Blazers in the playoffs. It's not like they would ever see them again.

Giannis is suspended for the Memphis game

he was most likely going to sit anyway. hopefully some of the other starters will play.

Am I wrong on this?

Maybe not 5 wins but he's acting like the Suns wouldn't have been any better had Ayton not been suspended.
Numbers are meaningless without context. The team was rarely fully together after he returned.

Bled isn't listed on the injury report anymore

Bledsoe going off for them and leading the Bucks to a win would be the greatest thing he’s ever done for the Suns franchise.

The Bucks will try to win the game because they want a good rhythm going to the playoffs.

They will rest Giannis and Mathews and that's it.

With just Middleton and a couple of more good players (Bled, Lopez, Marvin,...) the Bucks are favourites to win the game against the Grizzlies IMO.

I will love and forgive him forever if he beats the griz tomorrow

I’ll consider this reparation for the coin flip, Milwaukee.

Hello everyone! Visiting from the Bulls board with a question...most likely missing something but thought you guys might have some insight to this. I'm just gonna copy and paste my original post.

"Can someone please help me here....I am feeling like an idiot...

As of Wednesday morning, Portland has played 73 games, Memphis and Suns 72. All three teams play 1 more game on Thursday.

As I understand it, the 8th and 9th seeded team will play each other for entry to playoffs. The 8th seed teams needs to only win once, while the 9th seem teams needs to win twice.

What am I missing? Portland gets to play 1 more game than Memphis and Suns, and then has the advantage of being 8th seed?
I know I am missing something. Please help! lol"

Is this a thing? The blazers are gonna get to play one more game than the suns and grizz? If so, what was the NBA reasoning on this?

Thanks!

It's by win %. So, while true, it sucks they had more games to get more wins, if the Suns or Griz win (spurs too i think) and blazers lose, the blazers would have a slightly lower sin %

I hope everyone loses tomorrow including the Warriors, Bulls, Knicks etc except Phoenix of course. :evil:

Also, David Stern knows where the bodies are buried.

Wesley Matthews has been absolute garbage ever since he tore his achilles several years ago so this is actually a good thing for the Bucks.
