Aren't New York and Cleveland already locked into their match-up at 4 and 5 seed? If so, I imagine they might start resting stars.
Reminds me of what my dad said to me before my first-ever prostate examination. "Be concerned if both of his hands are on your shoulder during the examination"
Benching Sharpe might be TOO obvious. Bench Mays instead. As a Blazer: 17 points, 7.3 assists, 4.3 rebounds, .606 FG%, .571% from 3, 100% from the FT line and an eFG% of .727
Absolutely wild how good he's been. It's a small enough sample size that I hope we don't just decide he's our backup PG of the future, but certainly encouraging, knowing that those are the kinds of windfalls we're going to need if we really ARE able to pull off a massive trade...

There are 9 teams behind the Trail Blazers that can jump into the top 4 and bump the Blazers from the 5th spot. Add that to the 42 percent chance that the Blazers themselves move into the top 4. I think the mind focuses too much on that 5th starting spot and forgets there are 9 teams that can jump ahead. If even one jumps over, you're bumped out of 5th. If you're the 13th spot, there's a 93 % chance that you stay there. Only one team behind you, and low odds to jump into the top 4.
