Denver and OKC are for sure winning on Sunday in that race for the #1 seed. The big matchup is Minnesota vs. Phoenix. The Suns are 2-0 this year against the Wolves but I gotta believe Minny will get that one. If that happens, the Pels are gonna draw the Nuggets, regardless of what happens against the Lakers on Sunday.

That's a really tough break after it looked like Denver was headed for the #1 seed. Wemby derailed that tonight.

Pelicans got a shot. They’re healthy. Haven’t been for several seasons lol.

This is the first game I've watched Zion play this year. You have to outplay LeBron on this game! Come on Big Z, lost the handle a couple times unenforced already,

It's gonna be kind of funny if they lost 3 straight times at home to miss the playoffs and they still try to run it back

Its that dynamic of having your best 2 players as forwards. I've never liked that

Honestly looks like a horrible situation for Zion. They using him like a point forward. Nah man, should be focused on scoring, offensive rebounding and rebounding.

They shoulda brought Ingram off the bench. Murphy had been on fire and the team was in a groove. Destroyed any rhythm the team had. Willie's just a terrible coach.

There will be changes but nothing drastic. I can assure you the GM and coach are not going anywhere

I can't even say this was/is about BI.

They've been cucked by the Fakers and homecourt all year. While being one of the best shows on the road.

Well. Let's be real here. Even if they did hypothetically avoid the play-in, they were going to get routed by Den anyways.


We get BBW in the postseason. Let's just all appreciate the 15 minutes while it lasts.

is there a chance that big z was just playing us, gettin all the haters in a row, before he does a big old belly flop (in this case a belly flop is a good thing) in the play-in game.

There was a thread about how many games Zion would play this year. If I remember, the consensus was all pretty low. He has played 70 games, which in today's load management world is a full season.

It was my thread , and it happened to pick 70 games as the max threshold like you mentioned. Over 90% chose on the poll he would not hit 60 much less 70 — most chose 40 or lower (from memory ) When I 1st posted it, a lot of Boardies were calling it ridiculous- they’re not calling it that anymore …… ( I would think )

I might have even been the only one to choose the 70 max ~ proof that even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while
( that was self deprecating humor - this is the part where you LOL )
