Rest LMA, Miller, and Wallace

Play for 8th place and the Spurs. Best possible situation.

yea lets rest our players when we havent even made the playoffs yet.

Magic # is 3. Either a sum of Houston losses or Blazer wins puts us in the playoffs. As long as LA doesn't pass SA, I agree with the resting thing.

Theres no way we miss playoffs after huston loss

Back it up with data

Dude, it's not that hard.

Houston wins its remaining 7 games-- 46-36
POR loses its remaining 7 games-- 43-39

My first choice for an opponent is Dallas, second: Spurs.

Hornets can still drop. Their remaining schedule is worse than ours. We just need to win one more than they do to finish ahead of them (as they have the tiebreaker).

 

[VanillaGorilla]

I want the Spurs.

 

[KingSpeed]

Spurs may drop to #2 seed

I agree we should rest players after we qualify

Everyone is tired. Our situation isn't unique. You get a chance to rest between the end of the regular season and the playoffs. We'll spend most of the rest of the season in Portland, which will allow our guys to rest a bit as well.

Right now, our margin for error is small. Perhaps if we would have won last night, but that was a huge loss for us.

I want the Lakers. We will most likely get knocked out in the 1st round anyway so why not go after the most hated rival we have?
