They probably won't but if they are a home team Kyrie currently won't be able to play. And if they end up on the road in Toronto or NY he won't be able to play. I'd bet on them getting in but if Simmons doesn't fit they might lose the play in.
Hopefully the 2023 pick isnt the best of the lot. That would be disappointing. Let's see if Simmons can handle NYC.
BKN has the 14th toughest schedule remaining. HOU at 5th toughest. https://www.tankathon.com/remaining_schedule_strength
Unless KD comes back soon they very well could be in trouble. Half man half a season and a vegemite sammich may not be enough to save them.
KD missed 37 games last year…BK went 25-12 primarily on the back of James Harden Who’s gonna carry them this year when KD is out? Part-time Kyrie who can only play in 11 of the 28 remaining games unless mandates change? Ben “my mental health” Simmons who hasn’t played all year? things aren’t looking too good down in BK
I could easily see Charlotte or possibly Atlanta passing Brooklyn in the standings as they're healthier unless KD or Simmons return quickly. I don't see them rushing KD back at all. The play in kind of hurts us because even if Brooklyn is 9th or 10th place they can still make the playoffs and deny us a lottery pick. Absolute best case scenario would be Simmons sits out for another month to avoid the 3/10 game at Philly and the Knicks go on a tear to catch up and force Brooklyn out of the play in altogether. Extremely unlikely, but if you told me at the beginning of the season that there was even a remote possibility this could be a top ten pick I wouldn't have believed it.
At Miami tonight. No Simmons, Durant, Aldridge or Curry. Methinks that losing streak is going to 11 tonight.
I enjoy the 2 stars and a bunch of role players model also love how the Nets and Sixers will become a big rivalry Who isn’t looking forward to a playoff series between the 2 teams?
March 10th is going to be a movie. I just hope everyone is healthy and playing for that game. Kick things off with a Simpsons slander hype video. Have Big Fendi ring the bell. All the bad blood.
lmao, imagine they have Big Fendi at the game with the same fit on if Simmons actually plays in that game, he’ll have exceeded my expectations of him
Rockets 2022 Draft Rights: 1. Own (Probably top 3) 2. DET pick if outside top 16* (Not going to happen) 3. POR pick if outside top 14* (Currently #10 in West so possible it falls outside of there but not likely) 4. BKN pick (Looking like somewhere between #14 - #20) 5. MIL pick (Somewhere around #26) So Rockets likely to end up with 3 first Round Picks in this draft. With one high pick, one middle pick and one late pick. They are really going to have to clear the roster before draft night.
