I don't think they will either. They are in tank mode, all the way down to the coach. Silly idea to beat Phoenix in that last matchup.


Even with all there tanking the suns still have atleast one more win in them. I cant see them losing the rest of their games.

I think PHX only has 1 more winnable game, Sacramento.

The Lakers have 5 games that are winnable imo, Minny (3x), Sacramento, and New Orleans.

If Ingram injury is a issue, then I don't see those games being winnable, let's not forget Young is already on the DNP list.

The NBA regular season in the Submarine Division is a disgrace.

Good job ET! Maybe fix your "All Star Game" also.

I would add the Hornets and Mavs as winable games to the Suns schedule. With us having 2 less wins its still ours to win or lose.

Minny will wipe us out IMO. Zubac vs KAT?

Minny isn't winnable if Kat plays. Sacramento will be a win and maybe the Warriors if they bench everyone.

Next games are Boston-Suns and Lakers-Minnesota.
They are going to tie at least.

I put Minny as winnable, because we play them 3 times. There is a good chance we win 1 of those games. They aren't a great team yet either. If that's the case, NO is a sure loss too?

My impression is that the Wolves would like to try and make the playoffs next season.

Messing around doing some tanking now would work against getting his team pointed in the right direction to make that next step.

They are really bad though. Like, even if Devin Booker goes supernova (which is their best chance at winning), their bench is so (bleep) bad that it might not matter...

Nets won again and have a very soft run home

If we go winless and nets go 5-6 (not impossible given recent play and absolutely no incentive to tank) we end up in a coinflip for top odds

Seems like a very unlikely scenario.. but good for us if it happens.

Who knew that Jeremy Lin getting hurt and sitting out most of the season would (bleep) us? The Nets' win rate is much, much better when Lin plays than when he has been out, I think.

Lin about to (bleep) up another team's chance at the #1 pick.

If they pull this off...

I would have no problem if it was the Nets getting the #1 pick...they sorely need it....however the Celtics who are #2 in the east will get their pick.....not only do our hated rivals get a first rounder, but they will probably get enough talent that will put them in contention for years. They have 11 games left, I'm not holding my breath waiting for them to catchup in wins.

We need another Linsanity.

I dont follow Nets games, but it's obvious that Lin is still a talented PG.. Good for him for helping the Nets win..
