Last I saw, Nets were down a dozen with about 7 minutes left. Really surprised and glad for the comeback.  With Clips win, Kings have a ton of ground to cover to sniff the playoffs.  Unfortunately, seems no one else in the West is interested in winning.  Sac looks frimly planted in the #14 slot.  I guess Orlando and Charlotte haven’t given up yet and have a chance to pass Sac.

Pacers keep losing—meaning we’re still able to reach the #4 seed! I hope they keep struggling on their West road trip

Their next two games are Golden State and Denver. I feel confident we'll pass them for the 4 seed relatively soon. A win tonight puts us in a tie with them for the 4 seed actually.

4 seed is the ideal scenario. Play IND first round (w/HCA), then MIL (now without Brogdon). Toronto to me is the most balanced/dangerous team in the East, with the best playoff performer in the conference, and I'd rather avoid them until the ECF (or hope PHI upsets them 2nd round). I also think DET/BKN are no "pushovers" either so it's not like drawing either wlll make it an "easier" first round.

Just saw it on Instagram, Harden scored 30+ point against every single NBA team.
First one to do so, very impressive!

Clippers have 10 games left, the Kings I believe 12 left, and Kings are 7 games back.  Clips going 5-5 in their last 10 puts them at 47-35.

Clips play Cavs twice, Knicks, Lakers, and Memphis and should be able to go 5-5 in their last 10 games, but may struggle to win more than 5-6. 

Luckily, 5-6 wins would lock them into no lower than the 8th seed, and if they don't get many more, they should finish #7 or ideally #8 in the West and also hopefully finish below the top 5 teams in the East, who should all be able to finish with 48+ wins unless Indy collapses.  That's pick #18 or #19.

Very impressive indeed, but I still dislike his game

Looking like we will get the Clips pick, and about as high a pick as we could get from it.  Good news.  Not as good news on the Sac pick, as it is much higher than we had hoped for...Memphis is still very much unknown.  Not sure if we are even better off with say 9th pick this year versus 7th next year or unprotected year after that.  One in the hand and all that.  If the 1 and done goes away soon a future pick may be worth more...

So Orlando has a chance to make the playoffs, which just really surprised me. They are 1.5 games back from Miami. Orlando plays Memphis tonight and MIA plays MIL.  So could be only .5 games back after tonight.

Looking at their remaining schedules....it could go either way as neither has many easy games left

I think it would actually be best for both of those franchises if Orlando made the playoffs and Miami missed.

He is.

Question is, can he help the Rockets knock off the Warriors and make it to the finals?
