3 seed in the West now likely comes down to:

The Spurs deciding they want Denver to be on OKC’s side of the bracket and going all out on Sunday
Jokic fighting his tendency to let Jamal take 30 shots & fight for his life to put up 10 attempts against bad/undermanned teams while racking up turnovers trying to make Christian Braun a productive halfcourt offensive player tomorrow

Nick isn’t consistent at all. He gets really hot occasionally but then JJ will try to play him and then he won’t make a single shot.

I believe they’d still make the playoffs because of Steph. From there, he can spaz out in the first round like Bron in 2018 finals as much as he wants to. Sucks he was ballin this season before the knee injury. They could have made the 5th seed easily even with Jimmy being out.

Curry has been out with a legitimate injury, though. Only played 26 min vs Rockets, then 25 vs Kings. He’s clearly not back to 100%.

HibachiTyme | Knicks

Okay then he should have sat last game or the next one. It’s a national game vs Lebron. It’s bad for fans, the networks, and the league to sit this game specifically. Theres no good reason he couldn’t have sat one of the others instead

Lesingingminer | Warriors

7 | an hour ago

Most 50+ draft picks rarely make the league. I always thought the Bronny hate was overblown. He has some great athleticism, you just have to hope he works his butt off on the defensive side to be like a GP2/Davion Mitchell type of player in the future

R00bot | CLE

3 | an hour ago

He inherited Lebron’s haters. No 55th pick in history has had so many haters. Glad to see him coming into his own regardless. I’d love to see him have a long NBA career after LeBron Sr retires.

barath_s | Lakers

6 | 3 hours ago

Bronny has far exceeded the norm for a 55th pick

He has 2 years guaranteed contract investment from the lakers now (which isn’t the nkrm) . I think he can get a contract from another team on his own merits

He’s still an end of bench role player this year, but can grow to be a rotation player

He’s not a difference maker yet. On this lakers squad with very poor depth, he’s clearly ahead of a number of players on current trend, even if he has season minutes or season points below them

He still doesn’t have a hang my hat on single skill to keep me in the league strength. Msybe his best traits are composure, playing within himsrlf and a degree of defense. Stoll scoring/shooting is his top weakness, and he has room to grow in ither places

That was a dumb game, even with their injuries and Steph resting, there was no particularly good reason why GSW should have lost this beyond it’s the end of the season, it doesn’t matter, we’re not going to try. Besides LeBron no one on the Lakers looked especially good tonight, Kenard wasn’t anywhere close to as effective as he was the previous two games, and everyone else was just there to make plays for LeBron. I guess really it doesn’t matter to Golden State though, they’re locked into their position, might as well not risk hurting your guys.
