Lauri out against the Jazz tonight.

A fun fact about this Dallas pick race is okc and Dallas both play their final game on Sunday and at the same time. It means that if Dallas can beat Chicago tomorrow than they really do have to ride this out and try to beat San Antonio regardless of whether okc wins both games or not. If Dallas wins both games then they will ensure a better record than Chicago regardless of the play-in race. I believe the only caveat would be Chicago needs to lose in the play-in and not make the playoffs. If they get eliminated then Dallas gets 11th best lottery odds even if they miss play-in.

I thought about that, but we still dropped to 4. We were lucky, as it turned out, but Min was 16-66, and we were 17-65, and we couldn't catch a break & move past the Timberwolves. We also beat a 60 win Atlanta team, which played many of its starters, to screw up our record in our second to the last game. Frustrating.

Effin' Utah!
 Luka Samanic tried, but he just can't win with those cats. Shout out to Kris Dunn, who actually came to play. Another reason why Danny Ainge can eat a d@#k.Always... always remember: Less is less.

If Dallas beats Bulls on Fri - does that get us to 11th (at least pre-lottery)?

But not as frustrating as the Knicks' 2017-18 season. I am still sore that they Knicks did not do a more concerted effort to tank and have a shot at Doncic. I still think that had he joined KP in NY, as opposed to later on in Dallas, it would have been a very effective partnership. |

Yes* *To hold the one game lead, Dallas will still need to beat SA afterwards (assuming Chicago wins their final game against Detroit). Otherwise it'd turn into a coin flip. Chicago would also have to lose one of the play in games. If they win both games and qualify as the 8 seed, they would fall out of the lottery. |

I think I read that bulls are sitting a few guys as well —- could come down to Frankie Ice and Theo to save the pick |
