VikeManDan Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 22 hours ago, VikeManDan said: Huge game for the Wolves tonight against the Nuggets. 1. Wolves (55-24): Nuggets, Hawks, Suns (remaining opponents combined win percentage .578) 2. Nuggets (55-24): Wolves, Spurs, Grizzlies (.430) 3. Thunder (54-25): Spurs, Bucks, Mavericks (.494) A win tonight keeps them on track for the #1 seed, a loss very well means they won't get it. Wolves couldn't pull off the win last night and fell to the 3rd seed. They'll need to win out and have the Thunder lose to the Bucks, to get the 2nd seed back. I don't see the Nuggets losing to either of their remaining opponents. Hopefully KAT can knock a little rust off the next two games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worm Guts Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 It's weird. ESPN has the Thunder listed as the 2nd seed, but they are tied head to head, tied in division record, and the Wolves have a better conference record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VikeManDan Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 I'm honestly not sure how the tie-breakers work but just went with what ESPN had in the standings. Bucks can't catch the Celtics for #1 in the East but they need to fend off the Knicks to hold onto #2. Hopefully they can take down the Thunder tomorrow night.

Worm Guts Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 It looks like NBA.com has the Wolves in 2nd, I think that's probably a better source. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrplChilPill Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Carlos Correa now hurt.... It's a cursed year. Which the owner deserves, but not the team or fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting all of the injuries out of the way now so they are healthy for the world series run. When is brooks Lee going to be back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Worm Guts Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Denver loses, unfortunately OKC wins a three way tiebreaker even though the Wolves have the individual tiebreaker against both the Nuggets and the Thunder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VikeManDan Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Pretty crazy the #1 seed and Northwest Division comes down to game 82 between 3 teams. All 3 teams tip-off at 2:30 CST tomorrow. Just win baby. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gnat Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 The Wolves did not win... But now onto the playoffs for revenge against the Suns. Need to contest a lot of those 3 pointers that were falling yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need to contest a lot of those 3 pointers that were falling yesterday. It doesn't bode well for the Wolves that they crapped the bed in the biggest game of the year against an opponent that has had their number. I don't feel confident about this series. The Suns are the one Western Conference team the Wolves just match up terribly with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
