KP likely out? This sets up a very rare situation for the Luka-KP Mavs. We have a very good chance to end the Spurs' playoff streak because if we lose this then only a Memphis win against a Giannis-less Bucks team or a Portland win against a shorthanded Nets team that is already locked into their seed would eliminate the Spurs. Now you can't ask your players to tank, but let's just say that I would not mind seeing a lot of Josh Reaves, Antonius Cleveland, and Justin Jackson today. Giving MKG a career high in 3 point attempts to try to develop his offensive game might not be a bad idea either
This is a must lose game.
