Kind of a shame Suns won’t get a shot at the 8 seed. The 8-0 bubble run was impressive. If they can continue this momentum into next season that’s one more West team that’s “ahead” of us.
Looks like Kings would’ve needed a 6-2 or 7-1 bubble record for a play in shot.
Dame just hit a random shot from half court with 18 seconds left on the shotclock with ten minutes left in the game. Just silly video game level stuff.

The Kings could have had a Dame/Boogie/Reke/IT/Kawhi (but without Pop turning him into a monster) core if the Maloofs weren’t actively trying to strip the franchise of all of its value before booking it for another city. Just crazy
LeVert and Allen are nice players and good examples of what great player development and coaching can accomplish. Too bad they fired the coach responsible for this to appease KD.
Portland has no answer for Lebron/AD but lakers have no shooting. Lakers are bringing a sword to a gin fight with there perimeter defenders of KCP/Green/Jr/Caruso vs dame and CJ
Dame Dolla willing his team to the 8th seed after missing Nurkic for a good portion of the season and playing with Melo tells you all you need to know about his rankings as a top PG even if they get eliminated round one
Luke Walton was trying to find the right words to motivate his players to finish the season strong. The Sacramento Kings had been eliminated from playoff contention, which was nothing new for the team with the NBA’s longest streak of missing the postseason. “He said something like, ‘We don’t know when the basketball is going to come back after this time,’” guard Bogdan Bogdanovic said.

Get what you're saying but I hate posts like these (and other later versions) because fact is once you start with Kawhi over Jimmer you would likely not be in the position to draft Dame. The thing is .. the Jimmer pick made sense at the time. It wasn't the best we could have done, but it made sense next to Reke and Cousins if Jimmer had met the expectation of becoming a 3 point marksman version of Beno Udrih.
See this is why I just don't think Fox is gonna cut it as a big time franchise player without a 3 point shot. Guys like Curry and Dame can will you back into games closing the gap because they can get 3 after 3.

When the Phoenix Suns were invited to the NBA bubble, some questioned their inclusion. One site placed their odds at winning the NBA title at 10,000/1, making them the longest of long shots in Orlando. Another predicted that some team in Orlando would go 0-8, and it included a big chunk of that prediction talking about the Suns.
