Meaningful games sunday

Looking at the Standings, especially in the Western Conference. Looks like there could be quite a few meaningful games, especially teams that are fighting for that 6 spot which means they won’t have to do the play in bullshit games  right memphis  goldenstate denver  minnisota clippers 

I have a hunch that Minnesota will tank the final game against Utah and take their chances in the play in game against Memphis.  Reason being they want to get the 7 seed and play Houston in the 1st round.  Well, it's a theory anyway

Definitely close 

Golden State nor Clippers want to end up in the playin game. The loser of that game guarantees they are out in the first round. 

Gsw would rather take their chances with Memphis then Houston rather than meeting Luka and Lebron first round. Clips on the other hand are not afraid of the Lakers, no out of state travel for them for the first round, Kawhi vs Bron matchup. Clippers are hot past 10 games too, they will close this out and win this straight up sweeping the warriors this regular season.

I have a feeling Utah will tank the final game against Minny to get overall better odds at obtaining the #1 draft pick

Well the bottom 3 teams all get 14% chance, so Washington, Utah and Charlotte are already locked into those 3 spots

Golden State didn’t act like they wanted to be in the play in game. The Clippers definitely didn’t play like the play in game was an option 

The play in game ain't no big deal if you the 7 seed, all you have to do is win one game at home out of 2.  It's like shooting catfish in a barrel.  Golden St happy to face Houston.   Houston might come guns blazing first game , but after that they going to get schooled by a couple of mid 30s hall of farmers
