Paul is 1 for 9 and Harden is 6 of 23 and they are up 8 on the Raptors in Toronto in the 4th.  Their defense is spot on tonight. If they play defense like this they can threaten the Warriors

I have them beating the Warriors in 6 games in the second round of the playoffs.

Sixers LOSE to the Bulls.

Pacers play the Bucks tomorrow.

A win tonight would be huge for both Kings Pick AND seeding purposes.

Now 1.5 back of PHI for the 4 seed and if IND loses in about 22 hours from now, we’ll be 2 games back of the 3 seed  8)

I think we want to root for Philly at this point, y'all. A 4 seed against Indy would be ideal, and put us against Milwaukee in the second round, whom we match up well with.

Fair point. Either way a 5 seed isn’t ideal in any scenario so moving up is preferable

And guess when he did it? On the date of 3-6  :laugh:  :P

Definitely need the #4 seed, I agree. Indy has a brutal schedule to close the season:

MIL, PHI, NYK, OKC, DEN, POR, LAC, GS, DEN, OKC, BOS, ORL, DET, DET, BOS, BRK, ATL

That's pretty much all winning teams, or teams gunning for the playoffs--except two.

It could happen!

Rondo is sitting  away from the Laker bench, protesting something- possibly being benched by coach? Lol

So the Lakers are mathematically eliminated from playoff contention? Or do they still need to go 16-1 the rest of the way

I think only the Suns and Knicks are eliminated so far.

While I don’t want to drop games, I’m perfectly fine staying away from the 3 seed even though it’s well within grasp. Ideally we get the 4/5 matchup against Indy, leaving us with Milwaukee in the second round. I’d prefer to delay Toronto as long as possible, or best-case scenario Philly knocks them off (doubtful).

Of the top-4, I think Toronto is the biggest threat. They are a tough matchup and Kawhi is harder to game plan for than Giannis or Embiid.
