I mean hell they managed to beat the Suns who apparently are a playoff team, black is white, cats living with dogs etc.

I still think the Knicks have a much higher chance of missing the playoffs than the Nets, but Kidd's antics make me wonder
― Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 28 November 2013 07:24 (ten years ago) link
yeah well the nets are at least missing their two best players
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Thursday, 28 November 2013 07:26 (ten years ago) link
i think both are still essentially locks to make the playoffs
i'm not sure there are 8 teams in the east that are even trying to make the playoffs
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Thursday, 28 November 2013 07:28 (ten years ago) link
let's break it down to an extent
― Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 28 November 2013 07:32 (ten years ago) link
15 teams in the east
2 teams are 100% locks
miami heatindiana pacers
1 team is a 98% lock
chicago bulls
3 teams have zero chance and/or are openly tanking
milwaukee bucksboston celticsphiladelphia 76ers
2 teams are probably in that group but might actually be kinda good
orlando magiccharlotte bobcats
so we're left with 7 teams for 5 spots (assuming heat, pacers, bulls)
atlanta hawkstoronto raptorswashington wizardscleveland cavaliersnew york knicksbrooklyn netsdetroit pistons
who ya got?
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Thursday, 28 November 2013 07:36 (ten years ago) link
out of that group i like
atl, wash, det, bk, nyk
i think the cavs are garbage and that masai will break apart the raptors
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Thursday, 28 November 2013 07:37 (ten years ago) link
in the tank: obviously doomed: Cleveland, Milwaukeescrappy overachievers that can't possibly last: Boston, Philly, maybe Charlotte ('Cats definitely trying to make the playoffs though)weird but talented teams that are trying to be good and might manage it: Pistons, Raptors, Orlandoteams coached by Thibodeau: the Bullsrealistic playoff teams: Indiana, Miami, Atlanta, Washington
I think it's possible that 7 of the teams from those last three groups make it.
― Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 28 November 2013 07:38 (ten years ago) link
now that Oladipo is going beast mode I really think the Magic are in the mix.
― Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 28 November 2013 07:40 (ten years ago) link
I'm sure that Masai is trying to get rid of Gay but that might make the playoffs more possible
― Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 28 November 2013 07:42 (ten years ago) link
derozen has been killing it, I wouldn't totally sleep on the raps
― Clay, Thursday, 28 November 2013 07:42 (ten years ago) link
the cavs seem desperate to shed waiters and get a SF, maybe masai can rope them into taking rudy
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Thursday, 28 November 2013 07:44 (ten years ago) link
Rudy is not what kyrie needs right now but Cleveland's management seems incompetent enough
― Clay, Thursday, 28 November 2013 07:48 (ten years ago) link
apparently they are trying to do... this
The Cleveland Cavaliers are actively shopping second-year shooting guard Dion Waiters, according to sources with knowledge of the situation.
Three teams the Cavaliers are known to have spoken with are the New York Knicks, Chicago Bulls and Philadelphia 76ers, the sources said. The Cavs' targets are Iman Shumpert in New York, Evan Turner in Philadelphia and Luol Deng in Chicago, sources said.

hey mark jackson might be useful to run some kind of play when you can seal a game, idk just a thought i had

Zach Lowe @ZachLowe_NBA 6mGSW clearly got its hands on OKC's crunch-time playbook for tonight, which is just a one page stick figure sketch of Durant shooting.

lol melo blocked at the buzzer on a potential game-tyer
― Clay, Saturday, 30 November 2013 04:40 (ten years ago) link
Just finished dubs/okc game. Wow that was insane at the end, everything about it, toe so close to the line. Shoulda put it away like 3 times. Revenge for the Iggy shot two weeks ago I guess. Curry working the glass all game so nice. Warriors playing really well overall just getting off nights from Klay and Lee is the difference, plus no Iggy.

Best thing about that melo getting blocked on game tying shot was that it was by... Randy Foye
― Spottie, Saturday, 30 November 2013 05:45 (ten years ago) link
yeah I was thinking during that play "well the Knicks got melo isolated on randy foye, woodson not calling a timeout worked" and then.... that happened
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Saturday, 30 November 2013 05:48 (ten years ago) link
I seem to remember Foye winning a game with the twolves in that manner too, during that 20 game stint where he was good.
