Around the League News: Week 20 (2/27 - 3/5)

[pickle]

Ja is away from team indefinitely now.

[Flagrant Fowl]

Until they definitely need him for playoff seeding.

I saw this on twitter, I’m sure we’ll find out more but this would be pretty crazy. Ja Wick potentially about to tank the whole grizzlies season. Crazy. Kings could wind up 2 and us a 3rd seed.

[Flagrant Fowl]

Ohhh. So that's why they're "fine in the West". He just planned on bringing a gun. That makes sense now.

I guess that means the Celtics wear bulletproof vests?

[Flagrant Fowl]

The ol' Ricky Davis trick.

[Cap]

When the league reviews it, it won’t count as a FGA or rebound. It was just a pass to himself off the board, not an attempt to score.

[Flagrant Fowl]

I'm sure that'll fit perfectly into Kendrick Perkins' narrative.

[carey]

This NY-BOS game has been pretty awesome also. Thibs has played basically just 8 guys including playing Quickley 54 minutes and Barrett 50 minutes.

[Wally_West]

Grizzlies just dropped 51 in the 3rd quarter against the clippers lol

[Flagrant Fowl]

My preferred playoff seeding in the West:

1. Denver
2. Phoenix
3. Sacramento
4. Memphis
5. Golden State
6. Minnesota
7. LA Lakers
8. LA Clippers

Probably too optimistic to have Memphis fall all the way to #4 when they still play Houston twice, San Antonio, Orlando, and OKC on the last day of the season.

[TOO]

Grizzlies just dropped 51 in the 3rd quarter against the clippers lol

Then what happened? Lol.

Good. That was weak.

I’d rather play Minnesota.

[Shabazz]

This was beneath Giannis.

Nah. Give me the Lakers fans tears. (and it would guarantee the Suns play in the best time slots)

[Flagrant Fowl]

This was beneath Giannis.

I thought the same thing. I couldn't recall anytime he's done something goofy like this.

The Laker fans will cry at some point. I just don't want more bullshit fouls not being called and CP3's shoulder blades breaking. I know they don't have Pat Bev no more, but I can't help but think about Isaiah Stewart chasing down LeBron.

[SunsRIt]

How many teams has Pat Bev been on in the last 3 years? Nobody wants to keep him.
