We can finish bottom 3, especially if some players are moved for future assets. Meanwhile BRY has no incentive to lose, and Minni wants to win.

basketball-reference's simulator currently puts the Suns most likely at 4 (34.8%) or 5 (30.7%), followed by 3 (19.6) and 6 (9.1). little chance of #1 (0.1) -

So they don't believe BRY can end up winning one more game than the Suns? We are only two wins apart.
