    Especially since I think Haynes has broken it every other time.

    Badji has been bad. I agree there.

    Kai Jones is not a 'real' prospect. He tops out as a backup C guy. I can't ever see him being a starting C in the league.

    Didn’t realize Tacko Fall was playing in SL for the Bucks.

    He’s been playing in the Chinese basketball league. For Xinjiang(?) I think.

    I wonder if Joe has his eye on him?

    Too bad they don’t do Chalupas anymore because Tacko for Chalupas would have been epic.

    Cam Witmore is looking like a steel for the Rockets.

    Looks like we are sunk. We are behind Brooklyn and Utah in terms of point differential so even if Utah loses we are probably sunk. They would have to lose BAD.

    6 seconds from not even having to worry about it. 2 of the more poor plays you will ever see to end a game to give up a win.

    Only watched the game against us, not deep dive scouting, but he reminded me of Corey Maggette. I don't think that's a good thing. Especially on a team with Green and Porter Jr.

    Utah down by eight going into the fourth. That along with the Lakers getting beat bug should put us in.

    It’s about margin of victory. Utah has to drop some points.

    If Utah loses by a lot, yes.

    Right but Utah doesn’t have to lose by much to fall by us. Remember- it’s just four games. Margin of victory swings big with a loss.

    We still pass Utah if they lose by 1, I think.

    Utah just needs to lose.

    Drops their diff to +5.5 (blazers are at +6.3)
