Heard in yesterday's game that we have 17 games in the next 33 days. Crazy. We need to protect Luka, even if it costs a few spots in the standings. We have 5.5 games ahead of the 7th seed. I rather be 6th and have Luka/Bron/AR healthy than 2nd and ride Luka/Bron to the ground. Time for the role players to step up, including Milton. I remember him getting 30+ in Philly, we need that guy.
Jokic injured his hand .And he was already injured and tired after Phoenix OT game. He was 2 for 10 from 3 today.OKC already clinched play off and probably 1- st place in West
What is this new thing with the scheduling of same teams playing each other back to back this year?? It happened to us with Utah and the Clippers already, and Denver above. Has that happened in prior seasons?
Denver and Milwaukee b2b has no sense especially when Silver wants to cut travel times and load management for games on national TV
What do you mean over? We could lose all 6 and still not be in the play in. Just because we lost Lebron for a fortnight doesn’t mean this team will roll over.
Down to 3 seed I think. Next set of games are on another level as far as opponents go. If laker injuries continue, looking like we’ll slip quick if they can’t get those wins again. Just secure a top 6 please so you don’t play in the stupid play-in again.
I would just sit Luka and AR for the next 2 games (Bucks, Nuggets), and get our core (minus Bron) rested and ready for the home games starting Sunday.
Health wise .. Our team is already 3 starters and 1 rotation player down before this stretch . Seeding doesn't matter if everyone is injured
i think the 2-seed is probably out of the question, but tbh, that would have been absolutely wild anyway. just stay out of the play-in and get that week's rest before the playoffs. that likely avoids okc or denver in round 1.
