    So can we please lose out and miss the playoffs. This roster is such garbage. Need to get in the lottery and hope for a miracles.

    Why not at this point. We will get swept by Milwaukee.

    we do. win the next two or have the hornets lose one of the next two and you’re in. lose one and hornets jump you with 2 wins

    no idea on the heat but they’re pretty much done

    The difference in draft picks between missing the playoffs and making the playoffs is 1 pick, and the chances of getting into the top 3 in this draft are less than 2%.

    Was at the game. Went from about as toxic an atmosphere as I’ve ever seen at a sporting event to a love fest by the end.

    Doesn’t matter as Blake being fucked up means we probably get swept in any series.

    Did they make a big deal of Reggie getting benched on TV?

    Barring a comeback from Charlotte against Orlando, we're going to be the 8 and play Milwaukee. I predict a sweep by an average score of 25 points. Good news is we won't get swept by the Raptors in front of 60% Toronto fans at home.

    First three games are Sunday-Wednesday-Saturday. I'd forgotten how much the NBA playoff schedule sucks.

    I’m so glad they made the playoffs. Getting swept is going to be a great experience for this young team. Should be a great few years to follow.

    These are obvious fouls we're committing and we're complaining about all of them and it's basically ended the game (not that Milwaukee wasn't going to win by 15+ anyway).

    I have no clue what this means, because there's no way Gores is trading Blake. No one else on the roster has any value unless maybe someone wants to but Drummond in a contract year, and even that isn't going to move the needle. They're pretty much stuck until at least next summer.

    Was support in GR decent? I know they used to play some preseason games there back in the day and it seemed like that was a pretty solid relationship.

    It looks like they averaged over 3k a game.

    I doubt a team in Detroit does half that.

    It would be interesting if they sold tickets for dirt cheap / basically gave them away. That should be the strategy.
