Isn’t division leader ahead of that? I thought we’d be 3rd too but gs has division lead over lakers so it’s them then us then lakers.

You are correct. Forgot that Golden State leads their division.

Tiebreaker Basis – Three or More Teams Tied

(-) Tie breaker not needed (better overall winning percentage)

(1) Division leader wins tie from team not leading a division (this criterion is applied regardless of whether the tied teams are in the same division)
(2) Better winning percentage in all games among the tied teams
(3) Division won-lost percentage (only if all teams are in same division)
(4) Conference won-lost percentage(5) Better winning percentage against teams eligible for the playoffs in ownconference (including teams that finished the regular season tied for a playoffposition)(6) Better net result of total points scored less total points allowed against allopponents (“point differential”)

If someone would have told me we’d be 4-2 with that schedule i would have called bullshit. I honestly thought we’d be lucky to be 2-4 with that schedule. Problem now is wr are getting thin with so many injuries. Wish Scoot was back soon
 
This was a huge win. Denver was literally the best team in the league by advanced metrics* and they slowed us right down. And we missed a bunch of bunnies (finishing at the rim is this team's kryptonite). And Jamal Murray was clutch. And Yet!

Have we ever been in the "quadrant of wow" in living memory?
 
I know this isn’t going to be popular or even possible but if we have Blake and Thybulle out for a while what about B Simmons, as bad as he is offensively he’s elite defensively. His attitude could be trouble but we have such a tight group might be exactly what he needs.

I'd be intrigued but I think he's only going to go for a glamour team

Yes he’s always intrigued me he’s elite athlete. Super long and one of the best defenders in the NBA. In a Blake role he comes in presses full court and causes havoc while also being ball handler who was also a gifted set up man. His non care approach has been his downfall but ……. Low risk high reward type of player

You have the incorrect stats for Rick. He started on Feb 18th 1989 vs the Sonics and the team went 1-4 in his first 5 games. The first 5 games of the 89-90 season, yes he went 4-1. BUT....Schuler was fired on Feb. 18, 1989. The team started off that season going 25-22 and the Blazers shit-canned Schuler and named assistant Rick Adelman as the interim head coach. They proceeded to lose the next 4 games under Rick, until he got his 1st win in game 52, Feb 26th 1989 vs Miami.

ok

I was just going by their first full seasons as the HC
 
If you read the twitters, you'll see that Denver fans, especially someone who works for their post-game show, are quite pissed about the non call on the jump ball at the end.
They didn't mind the calls they benefited from though.
