    Wow, Redick takes two charges in a row. We really need a guy like that on our team.

    The Pelicans are playing too well now; it's better if Spurs beat them, I think.

    Not every team is playing the same amount of games so it's winning percentage. For example, we play one more game than the Griz so there will be no tie. Also, if the Griz go 1-1 and we go 2-1 we will end up with the better winning percentage

    I think your question is about if we have the same record as those teams would we have an advantage. The thing is we will have played more games than all of those teams so there is no way we can have the same record as them. If we are the same games below .500 as any of those teams then we will have the better win percentage so we will be the higher seed, so in that way we have the advantage but we can't tie with anyone.

    A player people aren't really talking about who has played really well in the bubble is Derek White

    Can I introduce you to Gary Trent jr. He could be similar to Redick but a better defender.

    I think we could beat SA if we only had to get one win in the play-in but I don't know about two in a row. The fact remains we just have to win out so we either get to play the depleted Grizz who we can beat two times in a row, or we get two shots against most likely the Spurs or Suns.
