West Playoff Watch

[Mavrelous]

All positions in the we are practically set except 3-4 (Dubs and Mavs) and 9-10 (Pelicans and Spurs).

I have read some of Warriors sides and many believe Suns are better opponent than Grizzlies for them.

If you want to go all the way there's in reality not big difference anyway.

Spurs being 1 behind and having incredibly difficult schedule. They need just to beat Warriors.

The slim chance of playing Minnesota is gone.

Warriors@Spurs is probably the last chance for Mavs finishing 3rd.

Pelicans are playing the Grizz and the Dubs, there's still a chance for SAS to grab play in HCA, not sure they'll fight for it though...

That's why I said Spurs are our last hope. If Warriors win that, Pelicans will have nothing to play for and very big interest to rest players before play-in. And it's very doubtful if it's worth for Spurs to play full those 2 difficult games before play-in with very little chances for 9th place. 4th place looks like a safe bet, but we can always hope.

[Mavrelous]

Yeah, hope is still alive, Dubs, like the MAvs, have talent to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory in games they're supposed to win.

Any updates on Murray possibly playing?

Sorry.

Spurs are 90% 10th. Their main focus is already play-in.

It's down to Utah or Denver in round 1. Mavs can lock up the top 4 with a win or Jazz loss. We enter the playoffs 3 at best and 5 at worst but most likely as the 4.

[Michaellam1987]

It is sad that it seems DAL most likely locked up the #4th spot, and when they can get past the first round, they need to face PHX, in which we have not defeated them for a long long time already.

True but they always play the Suns well.

I don't remember the last time we won against them.

Maybe never

But now we have the Laser

This weekend is so important. Mavs own the Grizzlies. If the Mavs can get to the 3 seed, it probably means the WCF.

If not, Mavs probably lose in 6 to the Suns in round 2... You would think the Warriors would win both games knowing what's on the line. Our only hope is that they have to play a back-to-back & they're road games.

Still feeling like the Mavs are headed for the 4th seed. Ugh. Hope I'm wrong about that!

Warriors (-5.5) at Spurs
