The Denver Nuggets end tournament play with a 2-2 record. It’s impossible for them to win as the wildcard, as the Suns have a 3-1 record. If the Rockets beat the Mavericks or the Pelicans beat the Clippers, they have 3 wins and push the Nuggets down to 2nd or 3rd. If the Rockets lose and the Pelicans lose, it becomes a 2-2-2-2-2 tie and goes down to PD. However, Nuggets have a -10 PD, Rockets have an 18 PD, and Mavericks have a -14 PD. If the Rockets lose by less than 28, they have a PD advantage over Nuggets. If the Mavericks win by more than 28, they have a PD advantage over the Nuggets.
Tell that to gordon’s bitchass
I mean, ya’ll are coming off a ring season. I’d cut your guys a bit more slack on going super hard for a regular season constellation prize. Eyes on bigger things. I love your team and rooting for the repeat if Suns choke out yet again. Four corners gotta stick together.
