Total disaster.

 

[ncf135]

We (Bucks fans) all hope for 5 more loses. Sorry guys but if our franchise is any inteligent we should be #8.

tonight a little better, bucks win, while clips lose, big swing, likely guaranteeing the cavs no worse than 9th (dependent on lottery) as the bucks have a 2 game lead in the loss column on clippers with 4 to play, milwaukee has toronto and cleveland at home, while LAC is at DAL and HOU this weekend

now just need charlotte to find a way to win another game or two.

All Charlotte needs to do is win one more game and I think the 8th spot is pretty much wrapped up.

The Clippers could very easily lose their last three games.

Mo Williams is lighting up the Mavericks tonight. Close game in the 4th.

Mo Williams is lighting up the Mavericks tonight. Close game in the 4th.

Thanks Mavs.

 

[DougHeil]

Mavs kicked ass.

 

[Mdog1]

With our luck the Clipps will win out and we get the 10th with them, and then three of the teams behind them get 1, 2, and 3 and we get the fourth and 13th.

Looking at remaining schedules of the Clippers, Pistons, Bucks, and Charlotte, there appears to be a very real chance that Detroit could end up catching the Clippers in the standings...

Clippers currently 31-49:
@ Houston
vs. Memphis

It appears LAC will most likely lose to Memphis, who is fighting for playoff position. Houston is locked into their draft position already and has nothing to win or lose by their performance. The Rockets might as well try to win since losing does not help their cause.

Pistons currently 28-51:
@ Charlotte
vs. Cleveland
@ Philadelphia

Pistons have 3 very winnable games to close out the season, and have already won 2 in a row, could end the season on a nice 5 game winning streak. Philadelphia is the only real question mark of those opponents (although Cleveland may also be a very tough opponent)

Bucks currently 32-47:
vs. Cleveland
vs. Toronto
@ Oklahoma City

If the Clippers do not lose out, but instead split their remaining 2 games, all the Bucks have to do is win 1 out of three to stay above the Clippers. Toronto or Cleveland are their main chances.

Charlotte currently 32-47:
vs. Detroit
@ New Jersey
vs. Atlanta

Charlotte has been playing awful, and will most likely lose at least 2 of these 3. But again, if the Clippers split, all the Bobcats have to do is win 1. Hopefully it is the New Jersey game, as losing to Detroit is a must for the Pistons to catch the Clippers in the standings.


If the best case scenario happens, the Bobcats and Bucks will stay ahead of the Clippers, and the Pistons and Clippers tie for the 8th spot, splitting the 71 balls available between those 2 spots. This will give them either a 3.5 or 3.6% chance at winning the lottery. This represents an absolute gain of either 0.7% or 0.8% for the Clippers pick.

Minny will most likely not win another game unless houston and pheonix dont really bother to turn up. Looks like the cavs need to lose out which i doubt they do as Baron 'im all about winning' Davis is in control

Good News:

Jonathan Rinehart: Clippers just announced they have suspended guard Eric Bledsoe for tonight’s game at Houston due to a violation of team rules.

 

[hud11]

just need one win from charlotte and the cavs are locked in to number 8, unless as mentioned above Detroit runs the table and LAC lose to Memphis on Wed. i've been rooting for the pistons to catch the clips since the trade, they've continued to let me down, so i'm not expecting them to win all 3. esp since philly may have something to play for on Wed.

i'll take #8, thats fine, now Twolves just need to win.

 

[RchfldCavRaised]

Phoenix has shut down Steve Nash for the rest of the season right?

This Minny, Phoenix game has all the makings of a NCAA play in game. Only with #1 pick implications.

Im going to need Minny to play ALOT of Anthony Randolph. Im talking 48 mins of nonstop crybaby face

 

["Boobie" Gibson]

So it appears the Clippers are locked in to #8... and the Cavs are for sure #1 or #2... so what is the worst case scenario for our picks?

I know the Cavs, if they end up screwing this up and get #2, the worst pick they can get is 5th. What about the Clippers' pick?
