REGARDLESS of the outcome of the Mavs vs. Timberwolves game on Sunday night AND REGARDLESS of the outcome of the Trail Blazers vs. Nuggets game on Sunday night.
Step 1: Done!!!

Just need to beat the Raps
Or ... (better yet) ...
If the Mavs win out, then neither of the Lakers' final two games matter (as far as the Mavs' #5 seed is concerned).
RE: AROUND the NBA: - SleepingHero - 05-13-2021
Wait doesn't this mean the Mavs automatically avoid the play-in???
RE: AROUND the NBA: - IamDougieFresh - 05-13-2021
We can't expect the Lakers to win and we sure as hell can't can't count on the Mavs to beat sub .500 teams.
RE: AROUND the NBA: - ReunionMav - 05-13-2021
One hell of a game. From 90% shooting for half of the 4th to missed free throws and double dribble.
I’ll take the lead for 5th for now but this game shows it is never over and you have to make winning plays all the way to the end.

No. We need one win or a Laker loss. Portland can still pass us

If my count was correct, 22 out of those 32 scenarios put Mavs at 5h place. There are only 2 scenarios where Mavs finish 7th.

And ...
Yes, there are only two scenarios where the Mavs finish #7. As stated previously by umpteen different people, the Mavs will avoid the play-in if they win one more game or if the Lakers lose one more game. Conversely, the Mavs will NOT avoid the play-in (i.e., the Mavs will finish #7) if and only if the Mavs lose their last two games AND the Lakers win their last two games (regardless of whether the Blazers win or lose vs. the Nuggets).
RE: AROUND the NBA: - Halfnir - 05-14-2021
If Clippers, Dallas and Lakers (to avoid 3-way tie) all lose one for their last 2, it could come to the situation that it's Mavs-Clippers and Portland-Denver regardless of the DEV-POR game because winning DEN would go to 3rd seed (own the tiebreaker over LAC) to play POR on 6th and winning POR would go 5th seed to play DEN on 4th.

My head hurts too much to figure this out, but I wonder what Denver would do if there is a scenario where they can pick their opponent by either winning or losing the last game with Portland?
