    Glad Orlando only played Issac for 14 minutes. He was neutralizing everyone he defended out there

    Yeah that guys defense is something else. Haven't seen anyone clamp Sengun like that. It's a shame he's always injured

    It looks like Memphis can win.

    Pg green and the Rockets get another dub. The jaters scurry back into their hole.

    Smith and Adam had a great game.

    Wasn’t a pretty game, but I’d call this a good win, despite some pretty horrendous shooting from our guys.

    What I liked is that regardless of the shooting, everybody played really hard—and when you combine that with a bad offensive team on the other side…you get games like tonight

    yea but Dallas is playing basically none of their starters. They seem to be wanting to legit tank

    BJ Armstrong wishes he thought of this one. Good move by Tate and his peeps tying it to wins.

    Yes.

    But since Dallas appears to have an easier schedule than Phoenix, the Mavs will have some games Gifted to them no matter what they do.

    Just about all of the good teams that Phoenix will have to play want to win their games, so the Suns will have less opportunities for Gifts compared to Dallas.

    Maybe so. The danger is, if the Suns make the play-in and then become the 8th seed, our pick could even be 16 or 17th!

    Wish we had another PG/ ball handler on the bench, but a win is a win!

    I know and that is why Dallas being In and Phoenix being Out is what we are hoping for.

    Not tonight, but probably soon I will pull up the remaining schedules for both Dallas and Phoenix to see how close this is going to be.


    Maybe this will apply for the Tiebreaker if Dallas and Phoenix finish the regular season tied.

    TIEBREAKER BASIS FOR TWO-WAY TIES:

    • (-) Tie breaker not needed (better overall winning percentage)
    • (1) Head-to-head won-lost percentage
    • (2) Division leader wins tie from team not leading a division
    • (3) Division won-lost percentage for teams in the same division
    • (4) Conference won-lost percentage
    • (5) W-L Percentage vs. Playoff teams, own conference
    • (6) W-L Percentage vs. Playoff teams, other conference
    • (7) Net Points, all games
