It's worth noting the Clippers also have nothing to play for as they're locked into their play-in seed.
They finish the season with a back-to-back on the 9th and 10th, so I suppose they'll play most of their regulars against the Suns and for one of their last two games.

I really hope they beat the Wolves for the 7th seed. I'd feel some relief if it were to somehow settle with Memphis, GSW, and LAC all on the other side of the West bracket, but I'm honestly not expecting it and my gut is telling me the Suns will be in a ridiculously tough first round matchup with the Clippers.

I saw this, from a basically Grizzlies podcast. They claim to be national, but it's all Grizzlies fans. They are advocating for the Wolves to Memphis, "just for gas saving"

Gonna go out on a limb and say the "gas savings" is tongue-in-cheek because they'd obviously rather see the Grizzlies play the Wolves just as I'd rather see the Suns have that opportunity. I'm not gonna crush them for making a harmless dumb joke.

How about the Spurs just win the play-in and get the 8 seed? Memphis can play Minny still

The Spurs beating both New Orleans and LAC would probably the biggest upset of the entire post-season.

Me neither. Yeah, I figured it was a harmless joke too.

Biyombo seems to have lost the shooting touch in the paint that we saw after he first arrived.

Why does Elfrid Payton play over Holiday?

That's not a flagrant foul. Craig hit the ball first and and his follow through hit his arm.

Cam Payne played really well when Paul was out with the thumb injury. I don't know what's happened to him recently.

They should just shut the team down completely and have the deep bench play the entire game.

Glad we are resting guys, but this is pretty ugly. I really don't want to face the Clippers in the 1st round. I hope they get the 7 seed.
