Hopefully it's just a hyperextension
Jones and Vogel gotta go.

Yea hope that's not as bad as it looks. Pels can't catch a break, thought they were a darkhorse now that they were finally healthy.

Even if it's just a hyperextension, there looked to be enough force to make it fairly severe. I'll be surprised if he's playing in the next two weeks.

I’m ok if he’s hurt for our games and can play in the playoffs…never want long term injuries, but he can rest against us haha…we need the wins

Also Kings lost to the Wizards….we're not the only team who can’t seem to get it together.

I watched a fair bit of that game, the Kings were so bad tonight.

Obviously I prefer to get to 6 and get out of the play-in, but I’d feel pretty good about matching up with the Kings in the 7-8 game.

That Ingram injury looks bad. Hope he will be okay. Pelicans are playing great lately too. Losing him still be a big setback.

How long is Huerter going to out for the Kings? He's a big loss for them as a 3 pt threat and good overall player.

Kings are going to fall to 8…I think we need to get to 49 wins to get up to 6…we’d need to finish 8-4. Tough, but doable. Absolutely need the next two spurs wins. Then need to get at least 3 of the 4 remaining against the injured Wolves/Pels. Then would just need to go 3-3 against Denver, OKC, Cleveland, Sacramento, and LACX2

It's a pretty sad indictment of our season that:

a) we're pining and hoping to finish 6th;
b) we have to win a bunch of games to end the season if we want to get up to 6th; and
c) even if we get to 6th, we're probably going to get rekt in the 1st round anyway.

I actually think we’d have a decent shot at winning round 1 if we are 6th…likely to face Minny at that point and I think that’s a really good matchup for us with them missing KAT

We had better win these next two Spurs games! Get the stench out from earlier in the season. Well, some of it, anyway.

Not to be debbie downer but the way we've played this season, what's really the point of winning a first round series against an injured TWolves team? Maybe it saves some face for the franchise but larger issues are still looming. Unless things really clicked and the team all of a sudden became some juggarnaut on both ends, we're just delaying the inevitable.

Well I guess there’s no point if you think it’s just 1 winner and 29 losers. Personally I want this team to go as far as possible, even if they don’t win the championship.
