The Spurs play the tanking sixers. They are three games back of the Mavs, but Mavs own tie breaker.
The trailblazers play Denver. Last I saw, there is concern Jokic may be out. They are two games back of the Mavs. Mavs also own the tie breaker.
Magic play the Wizards.
I don’t think the Spurs have any ambition to catch us now that there two top guns are out. If Wemby would be healthy his first experience of play-in and playoff games would be worth a push, but now I think they‘ll make sure they get the best draft pick.
Portland is another story - as long as we and the Suns are in reach I guess they keep on pushing, it would be a success for that franchise to reach the play-in alone.
I just hope the Suns get their stuff together, they don’t have anything to lose without owning their draft pick and have enough star power to make a playoff series interesting.
