If we are serious about the playoff run, we need to improve our bench scoring. We need to be active with the buyout players. Maybe another guard who can shoot might help

No. Nothing will help. We have our 9.

Charlotte has the third most difficult remaining schedule in the NBA. Of their 27 remaining games they have Boston once, Golden State twice, Houston twice, the Lakers once in LA, Milwaukee once in Milwaukee, Philly once, Portland once, San Antonio once, Toronto twice, Utah in Utah. 

They've already blown through their allotment of tanking teams (Atlanta, Chicago, Cleveland, New York, Phoenix, Memphis) with the exception of one game remaining at Cleveland. 

Side note: Charlotte doesn't deserve a playoff spot. They've lost games against Atlanta, Chicago, Cleveland, New York. 

 

I wouldn't pencil them in to the playoffs yet. 

 

Edit: also the last game of the season they play us. They're on the second night of a back to back, we're on two days rest. 

Conversely, we have 9 games remaining against Atlanta, Cleveland, Chicago, New York, and Memphis.

And 2 against New Orleans

We have the same record as them. Didn't want to lump them into that group. 

But we do have 10 games remaining against our peers. 

There are enough winnable games left on the board. Win out against the garbage teams, go .500 against NOLA, Charlotte, Indiana, Dallas, Washington, Miami, and Detroit and that's enough to make the playoffs without hoping for a late season lucky win in Boston or something like that. 

Show up. Win the games. Show you belong. That's it.

Yeah, I only include them because of the turmoil the Davis situation has created

Wow. Washington has no 50 win seasons in the last 30 years. 

Interesting. I could've sworn they had one, but I guess not. That's kinda sad.

Name your MVP. 

Looking at the numbers and standings, right now I’d go:

1. Antetokounmpo

2. George

3. Durant

Harden is a media darling but a chucker in my book.

My favorite part was

“I know that he’s been rehabilitating in Los Angeles, and he feels he’s towards the end of that progression right now.”
