Play-In Tournament Talk

So I had to look up how this thing works:

Seed 7 hosts Seed 8 - Winner of that game gets the #7 seed.

Seed 9 hosts Seed 10 - Winner of that game moves on to play at the Seed 7/8 loser. Loser of Seed 9/10 game is OUT.

Loser of 7/8 hosts winner of 9/10 - Winner is Seed #8, loser is OUT

So it’s important we stay at least at 8 to have two shots of making the regular playoffs. Good thing we have the tiebreaker over Indiana, that is BIG.

As someone that struggles with, or moreso, always seeks how to make a graphic show a flow or activity, this NBA diagram is a fantastic visualization.

Still 8th. Do you think we can hang on for 2 chances at a playoff spot? I don’t see us doing that if we can’t win at least 4 of the last 7 games. Miles being out is just unfortunate. Hope Gordon can go back in the final 2 games so he’s already adjusted come play-in time.

Mostly depends on what Boston does. One game they are trash, next game they have 2 superstars

Looking more likely that we have to finish with at least 35/36 wins to go 8th, which makes tomorrow a MUST WIN. God thing we hold tie breakers on both teams.
