    Screw you, AD. And Bacon Pimple for inbounding to him as well.

    Meh. I’ve lost the confidence in this team that I held for 5 minutes of this season.
    Whatever.
    Everyone’s just going to come with the same tired excuse for the past THREE seasons: “it’s all ‘injuries’ fault.”

    Think that one capped us out as the 8th seed.

    We can climb over OKC. I had Minny dropping like a stone before ANT's injury. Not going to be able to catch Mavs now, Luka is about to return. GS even with 6 road games left, don't think that's reachable.

    we don't deserve to make the playoffs, but neither do the teams around us honestly. Who knows, maybe whoever makes it pulls themselves together, finds their health and a rhythm and makes some noise. All feels pretty doubtful right now.

    It’s over folks, we’ll be 9th or 10th if we’re LUCKY as we still play the Suns twice and the Clippers, and we keep losing to the teams we should be beating. No Luka and we can’t beat the Mavs? Come on. We’ll be 9th or 10th and have to win 2 games to save our lives. This game ended my caring though, that 3 ended it. If AD doesn’t care why should I care? Shows up when he feels like it, doesn’t have the desire to demand the ball and take friggin Kleber to the hoop. If we make it we make it, if we don’t, whatever, not gonna win anyway, this game proved that to me, make us face a team with a real star, even a headcase and we’re done.

    LOL I think we’ll fall at the lottery where we will give the Pelicans Wembanyama thereby confirming our overpay for AD’s broke a**

    Fans are both incredibly supportive and unforgiving. AD about to experience both during his time here.

    Another blown opportunity and back to 3 under .500. Looking like we're going to have to fight just to keep that 9th or 10 spot for the playin. Maybe we can get up to 8 at best.

    We don’t have tie breakers on most teams around 8-12 especially those above us so there’s little chance of 8. Be lucky to be 10th and over the Pelicans, play offs probably very far off after today

    So much has been lining up for us (injuries and other teams' loses) but we can't capitalize. Damn

    We had so many chances this season, so many winable "must win games" that we lost. We're getting the 10th spot and we're out after the first play-in game. Oh well...

    yeah, i know my general tone is one of optimism, but it's been a real beating this year. we can't get out of our own way, and it feels like guys are expecting to lose games. i think this is why i just keep focusing on next season. we gotta just flush this one.

    if the Warriors get 7th and we get 10th, it's extremely hard to see us beating them in SF.

    We had so many opportunities to get this right... look at the scores today:

    Minny lost.
    Clippers lost.
    Utah is going to lose.
    Warriors are down by 7, although it's still too early to tell.
