West Playoff Watch

[fuller4379]

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.

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

Maybe never

But now we have the Laser

November 29, 2019. 9 straight losses since then.

We're close.

[Bob8]

...not close enough.

Seems like tonight was our best chance to pick up that game on Golden State & make the 3 seed.

Hopefully a miracle happens and GSW loses tomorrow, but I doubt it. New Orleans has nothing to play for. They're locked into the 9 seed already.

it is possible that golden state will tank the game tomorrow to slide to 4, because they may feel they want the Suns rather than the Grizzlies in the second round. they are arrogant enough to do something like that so maybe that helps you.

After winning 4 in a row they will suddenly tank the last game?

it's entirely possible that they wanted to round into playoff form while still choosing to "rest" for the finale in order to game their preferred matchup. like I said, who knows what kind of chess Kerr is playing over there. it doesn't matter to you guys though. all you can do is win tomorrow.

1 day left in the season and not 1 PO series is set, **** insane.

The L at Washington against a bunch of scrubs plus no knees KP was awful. That's the game.

[Mavrelous]

Since the blowout loss at CHA Mavs are 8-2, including wins in Milwaukee, Clevelnad and against the Jazz at home, that Wizards game sucked.

Yeah that's true. The Grizzlies are a worse matchup for the Warriors than the Suns; at least in terms of recent success. I guess there's a chance they could do that. Thanks

What about Utah losing to Golden State while leading by 16 with 7 minutes to go... What a collapse!

The spurs had a chance yesterday. The Warriors didn't play well.

3rd seed would be so nice.

remember last season when the clippers cowardly tanked their finale against the thunder to drop to 4? the warriors could do the very same thing.

They played a guy named Scrub:)

[Archx]

It's kinda crazy that Jazz scare me more than the Suns. But if you want to go all the way i guess you have to be able to win against anyone.

I would still very much prefer playing Denver over Jazz.

Yeah, I think it's nearly impossible to win a championship this year. But I'd prefer that this young team get a lot of playoff experience. So I'd welcome any challenge at this point so they'd gain a lot of toughness and not complain about every non call. The playoffs will be more physical.

Yeah that was a bad loss & could keep the Mavs from the 3 seed, but the Mavs followed it up with a strong W @ Milwaukee. Balanced out for me.

The thing is the Warriors have won their last 4 games. I had them going like 1-4 or 2-3 their last 5 games not 5-0 or 4-1. Hopefully it's 4-1 tho. Mavs ain't losing tonight!

Looks like New Orleans beat Golden State to the punch. Ingram, Valanciunas, and Graham are all resting today
