Did a quick look at MavsMoneyball — lots of excitement, not expecting to win championship (expected: suns) but not writing it off either (know that some chance is involved and that they are on upward trend). Prefer #3 seed, ostensibly to avoid the Suns until the last round.

A Mavericks fan posted this on r/warriors. It shows the probability numbers for the possible outcomes in the #3-6 seeds using FiveThirtyEight's predicitions:

Long story short, there's a 73% chance that the Warriors will fall to the #4 seed and 92% chance that the Jazz stays at the #5 seed.

The Jazz 4th quarter offense makes this years' Warriors look like prime time SBDS

Booker just tried to pull House down on him to get a foul call. Jazz challenged and it ended up being a flagrant on Book. (Yay!) Guess he’s really mastered the sleazy antics of CP3.

Assuming the starters are Steph-Klay-Wiggins-Dray-Looney, I can’t stop thinking about what a strength our bench could be. Through the season, they’ve been hit by injuries AND thrust into bigger roles because of injured starters, but as bench guys, Poole-Payton-Iggy-Porter-Bjelica give the team high BBIQ, playmaking, handles, shooting and defense and it’s easy to envision any or all of them stepping up big in the post-season. Add in Kuminga as sort of a wild card, and I love all the options the team has and am not really bothered that some big plodder like Robin Lopez isn’t on the team.

If the Jazz win tonight, they'll keep the #5 seed. If they lose, they'll be tied with the Nuggets and will need to win their last game of the regular season to hold onto the #5 seed. Nuggets last game is against the Lakers, while the Jazz's last game is against the Blazers, so unless the Jazz plays really badly this Sunday, I think the Jazz will hold onto the #5 spot.

So... any chance that the Trail Blazers decide to beat the Mavericks tonight?

Warriors Nuggets would be 3-6 matchup. Last time, we played them in the playoffs, it was a 3-6 matchup. Let's hope the same team wins.

Man, talk about the stupidity of "bandwagon" fans...SFGate is calling for Kerr's head because the Dubs don't have the top seed & aren't dominating the way they did a few years ago. https://www.sfgate.com/warriors/article/Warriors-Kerr-should-consider-divorce-17058820.php
