    Heat's decision on defense to close out the game was an interesting choice.

          Crazy shot by Ant to save Sixers from screwing up the tank job

            Warriors are looking great.

            Has Curry's game regressed in any ways? To thoses that watch him a lot? I don't see it but the man is 37.

              They could wind up playing my Knicks in the first round...that would be fun.

                Tight seeding races in this last week. The East top 6 is pretty much set in place. But, the East Play-In team can shuffle around. The West 3-8 is very close, with 4-8 being separated by just a half game. It's weird seeing Houston as the clear 2nd seed, they just seem like a team that will lose to whoever wins the 7th/8th matchup

                I think the tanking order is close to being set. Jazz has a 1.5 game lead for the worst record. The bottom 8 all pretty much have enough of a gap between them. But, tonight's game against Nets-Pelicans is very important for the 3rd-6th bottom teams. A Nets win essentially locks Nets in the 6th worst record, Philly into 5th seed(would need Pelicans to win out to get 4th), and Pelicans still could have shot at 3rd. A Pelicans win would essentially lock Charlotte into 3rd, Pelicans only a half game up from Philly for the 4th, and Nets would still have a slight chance for 5th. As a Sixers fan, I want a Pelicans win. Besides the Wizards tomorrow, I don't see 2 wins left, especially against ATL and Chicago who are fighting for seeding. Pelicans have a tougher schedule, but any of those could rest guys. I rather have a shot at the 4th worst record.

                        Memphis ok, I can see it if he lost the lockeroom, but Kings and Nuggets? Humble yourselves

                            Yeah, I could understand Memphis. But, essentially doing a full sweep a week before the play-in starts of a team that is currently #4 seed is crazy. I know they haven't been as good recently. But, thisnis wild. Almost says that they didn't even want them give them a chance to change their minds in the playoffs

                                If they did it earlier in the season around the time the Kings made their move I'd raise an eyebrow and say bold move but okay I get it.

                                But now? Ownership wants a change (GM fired too) so bad they are willing to sabotage this year's playoffs for it? Thats not a bold move, thats just insanity
