I thought for sure Dallas would end up in the play-in with New Orleans or OKC falling out.
Now New Orleans is three games up on them with four to play so that is not realistic. They're one game behind OKC:
OKC controls their own destiny-- We might know who the top 10 for the West will be after they play Golden State on Tuesday. I was tempted to still pick Dallas with those schedules but the Thunder also own the tiebreaker over the Mavs! So the smart money has to be on OKC.

- Thunder, 38-40- Four games left- vs Phoenix, at Golden State, at Utah, vs Memphis
- Mavs, 37-41- Four games left- at Atlanta, vs Sacramento, vs Chicago, vs San Antonio

"This was for the long term, and this was for something that's bigger than ourselves and we can't just be a championship team overnight,” Irving said.

Aldridge cites Brady as he retires for second time

Raptors' Nurse: Need time to 'reflect' after season
Raptors coach Nick Nurse said he wants to "take a few weeks to see where I'm at" at the end of what he called "a difficult season from a number of standpoints."
The Mavs had been 7-0 this season when shooting at least 54%, and fell to 30-2 all-time, including playoffs, in games where they shot at least 60%.
Last night against Miami?
Dallas had one offensive rebound
Cuban would cause an insurrection that would successfully topple the government.
If Don Riley pulls that off?
He should be given a larger equity stake in the team as mandated by the league and have the executive of the year award renamed after him.
And I'm being serious
So if Luka FORCES a trade?
Will he get murdered in the press?
Cause I need to understand the new rules.
If Luka just leaves as a free agent...
everything is ok? No team loyalty questions?
Cuban and his leadership of this franchise is going to continue to NOT be questioned?
He tanked after a championship never really making an effort to defend that title. Bad decisions by team executives. And serious sexual harrassment charges against the team.
LeBron NEVER forced a trade he was exercising his free agency. They need to stop comparing him and blaming him for these other dudes.
Start the GoFundMe and I'm down for this mini documentary
