    The Warriors absolutely want to win. The Lakers will want to win just in case the Warriors happen to lose but of course the Blazers don't want to win. Other than that you are correct.
    One real game today for the most part.

    They helped the player not the Lakers. The original signing was built to help him get some show for a team in need.

    Because the guy is hurting for a contract as is and it'd be a dick move to prevent someone from getting a postseason contract so you can keep him for a meaningless final game.

    We didn't cut him. We just didn't sign him to another 10-day contract after it expired. Let's him play a game with the Lakers and let's the Blazers get a look at Chance Comanche, which sounds like was the plan for a couple of weeks.

    There seems to be a trend with Gobert. He has now had issues with both teams he has been on.

    Utah trying to beat the Lakers is pretty funny. How far down can the Lakers fall?

    They can fall into 9th if they lose and and Minny wins because Minny beat them 2 out of 3 times this season. That would mean the Lakers would have to win two in a row to make the playoffs.

    This last game of the season was pretty fucking intense down the stretch but the Wolves never really let the Pels get in front of them late.

    As bad as things could be, at least we aren’t the TWolves.
