    Never. I've always maintained that the last game wouldn't matter.

    Oh that's right, you claimed it wouldn't matter for any teams involved.

    Of course, there is a path to three seed if we win our next three games.

    It’s done already. None of the teams below us will finish with less than 33 losses and we won’t go worse than 3-4 in the remaining seven games.

    I mean that there is a path to clinching the three seed on Tuesday if we win all three of our games and certain other likely outcomes take place.

    We clinch a playoff spot if we win tonight and Nuggets (vs Thunder) or Twolves (vs Mavs) lose.

    Or I misunderstood him..

    What I should say is "Says you", as this post is looking for an argument.

    I'm kind of worried about how we finish the season off. The Harkless injury has completely killed our wing depth. It's forcing us to rely on Turner and Pat. And that's just not a recipe for success every game, as both are pretty inconsistent.

    Only that it's not. It's simply to point out an observation. An argument requires 2. Had you just admitted you were arguing just to argue then there would be nothing to argue about.

    The homers view me as a pessimist, the pessimists view me as a homer..

    Where's the fun in that? I say we all get together and settle this like men. In other words, let's have a food fight.
