huge night add some potential cushion. Nugz finally getting healthy, but the 2nd toughest remaining schedule. Rockets remaining is pretty light, but Celts/b2b tomorrow with Hornets/a hopefully much healthier OKC.
Holy shit they are depleted, but got a 6 pt lead over the Rox 1/2 through the 2nd quarter. We could really really use a Rox mini-losing streak, then a top3 finish goes from very possible to very likely!
Gotta be Mazzulla or OTT for COTY. Gargantuan coaching job from Joe this season. Basically, Brown & D-White and a bunch of nobodies.Queta with 19 rebounds 5 blocks.
Sengun got ejected after flopping.
Even if we win it's like a 3.5-4 game difference from 2nd to 7th.
If they could somehow go into the ASB on a lengthy win streak it would help immensely, but I think they have a letdown game tomorrow night (if they don't choke this one away tbh).
If we sweep till ASB (not happening because we are prone to laying eggs) and with OKC next 3 games without SGA for two weeks (vs Hou, @ LA, @ Suns), why not aim for top seed? That's what young and hungry teams should be about in regular season.
I'm sticking with my prediction they go into the ASB 2-2 in their next four tbh.
Fully expecting Flagg to go off on these fools in either of these two games. Most obvious 1-1 split coming up along withn 'Flagg> Wemby' hot takes if Victor continues sleepwalking into games and playing nonchalant ball.
Its legit becoming a real take tbh. With Wemby's health question marks and apparent stagnation in his game its possible Flagg ends up the better player.
