    Clippers have the Warriors and Jazz. They might be out of the 6th seed when all is said and done.

    Read my post again. If OKC loses to Bucks (in Milwaukee) and Clippers beat Jazz (at home), Clippers will stay at 6 seed since they own the tiebreaker. Alth ugh I'm not sure what happens if Spurs win out. I'd have to look into that if that happens. Could we end up with a 6 seeded Spurs team? I'd take that too.

    I did read it, you put Bucks? Not that they would. Besides Milwaukee just clinched home court throughout the playoffs and have nothing to play for. Tough to rely on that and also need OKC to beat Houston.

    Yes I said we needed OKC to lose to Bucks and Clippers to beat the Jazz. I spelled out how the Clips could keep the 6 seed and then you showed me the schedule and said they'd probably not get the 6 seed! Pay attention! And yes, we need OKC to beat Houston. I spelled it out in my post. Not sure how you can disagree with what I am saying is our best path to second round. Those are the games we should be rooting for.

    Bucks MIGHT rest Giannis but Giannis is in tight MVP race. I think he'll play.

    King, I'm saying I know what you said and I understand the path to get there. We literally need at least 6 games to go in our favor for that to happen. It's unlikely.

    We'll see. I think, in every case, I picked the favorite though.
