00:00
all right here is your situation for this weekend in the east as you see uh here what's really at
00:07
stake is the knicks would have to lose both of their games i believe both games the knicks would
00:14
have to lose and the pacers would have to win both of their games for them to flip-flop the
00:19
three and the four like we said before the knicks play the nets on sunday they can't beat the nets
00:25
on sunday with a chance to lock up the three seed well then they deserve to lose uh that's just
00:31
kind of how we just saw them lose to the pistons so if they play the pistons in the first round uh
00:37
maybe they'll lose to them at the end of the day like allegedly they're better than the piston to
00:43
get their ass beat last night by them so what i saw is when they go to detroit they're losing games
00:49
as far as the bottom there with the play-in tournament orlando is locked in they will host
00:56
the 7-8 game next week in the play-in now who's going to play them atlanta 38 and 42 chicago 37 and
01:05
43 miami 36 and 44 so all can still get the eight seed miami has the tiebreaker over atlanta if they
01:14
finish with the same record atlanta has the tiebreaker over chicago chicago has the tiebreaker
01:20
over miami so that's kind of how it goes the bottom line is is that the the eight the seven
01:27
eight loser gets to play again no matter what so you want to beat a seven or the eight or you're
01:32
screwed because the 9-10 the loser you're done correct if you're the uh loser of the seven eight
01:38
you have a second chance uh to still get into the playoffs and be the eight seed you'd play the
01:43
winner of the 9-10 game uh next week and on uh your home floor as well so you also have that so
01:49
the eight is of utmost importance atlanta has the now atlanta's got philly tonight and they've got
01:56
the magic on sunday so that's who atlanta finishes with chicago's got the wizards and the sixers two
02:02
awful teams and miami has the pelicans and the wizards two awful teams so they're all playing
02:09
bad teams you know atlanta's playing the magic they're not playing for anything so they're all
02:15
playing games they should win in theory in theory uh this weekend as far as the west goes
02:20
you know that it's crazy uh the lakers with a win tonight uh they would get themselves to three
02:26
denver's got 30 uh 48 and 32 clippers are 48 and 32 golden state and memphis and minnesota are all 47
02:35
and 33 there's still a lot that can be decided here uh with all of this stuff uh miami denver is
02:44
the only west game with two unlocked teams uh dallas needs to win out of that don't worry they're
02:48
playing either way in the 9-10 game so there's a lot uh to be decided still four all the way down to
02:54
eight well i think uh memphis is in trouble they got beat last night at home have to play in denver
03:00
tonight so uh they're in my view they're not getting the six so at worst it's to me the dubs
03:08
and then uh what happens to the clippers in denver at worst they flip positions and they still play
03:15
each other
03:15
the game that's probably going to swing everything is the most significant game is the clippers play
03:23
the warriors on sunday so you know the clippers are playing the kings tonight and the warriors are
03:30
playing portland chase uh that game is at the chase on sunday afternoon that's at golden state
03:37
now minnesota's got you know they've got a pretty easy road the two they should win their two games
03:43
they play brooklyn tonight and utah on sunday two of the worst teams minnesota's playing it's obviously
03:49
tough for the grizz because they're in denver this evening and then they play dallas at home on
03:54
sunday but clippers and and golden state is going to swing things on sunday afternoon in terms of in
04:01
terms of maybe who i mean is got to buy and who doesn't we just watched the spurs go into the chase
04:09
and have a uh barnes dagger three on the wing to beat them in their building so everyone thinks that
04:15
the dubs are so great at home which they have been but we just saw them lose to the spurs there
04:23
don't tell me that the clippers with beard kawaii and zubats can't and powell can't go in there and
04:29
beat them the way they shoot i mean the clippers score a lot and i mean they're as good as the
04:37
warriors i don't care what anybody says in fact i think they're better and i know all these people
04:41
because they got jimmy lymphoma think that they're going to the nba finals uh you know i don't think
04:49
i'll take my shot with the clippers on sunday at the chase and i've said this before i'll take my
04:56
shot with the clippers in the postseason over the warriors based on all the things i just said
05:04
i mean you're talking about they got four legit pourers that can put it in the hole
05:09
i mean all he's got even powell can pour it in subatz is having monster games he just had his
05:15
first triple double he's a double double machine he's a 20 rebound guy per game now he dominates the
05:23
glass i am i'm sorry the warriors don't have that player that's going to dominate the glass like he is
05:30
and i think kawaii leonard and james harden are savage i mean you talk about okay people start saying
05:38
oh well they got lebron and they got luca the lakers they got these vets well what are what are
05:44
beard and and kawaii leonard i mean these guys are as as crusty vet as they come i think they're
05:51
savage and i i can't wait to see if they can perform i told you yesterday people are writing
05:57
them off because they think they're predicting that kawaii leonard's getting injured that's bullshack
06:02
to think that way let's see him go out and play and see what he does i don't i don't think that's
06:07
happening i gotta be positive about his game because he's been playing his ass off this year
06:12
and it's never good enough for people they still predict his downfall and his doom
06:15
and i think that's just ridiculous
06:18
