I'll be watching Cavs/Raptors for sure. I think whoever wins tonight will ultimately escape the play in as the 6 seed. If the Cavs fall to 7, I see the Nets beating them in the play in and taking the 7 seed. If the Raptors stay at 7, the Nets have to face them in Toronto with no Kyrie in the play in and would fall to the 8 seed IMO.

I know these two have some niggling complaints, but it's going to be annoying over these last 10 games, the amount of stars missing games to ready for the playoffs. We saw it already over the last couple of days, and i feel like it's just going to ramp up more.

Suns should starting resting Booker, Ayton, and Bridges since they pretty much already have the best record in the NBA locked up.

Nuggets took care of them in the season opener at Phoenix. Obviously, things have changed. The Suns have gotten better, the Nuggets lost MPJ. But it's still a winnable game for the Nuggets. These are the kind of games they need to win.

I was originally gonna pick Toronto, but they’re without Trent JR tonight. I don’t know how good they are without him so… we’ll have to wait and see I guess?

Siakam is allowed to just repeatedly push, extend his arm, and shoulder guys and then he gets the foul call in his favor lol.
