Official Utah/Minnesota/Philadelphia Pick Watch

Today is a boring day for pick watch tbh. No cliffhangers.

TOR vs OKC is a win-win game, and both results are almost equally good.

MIL vs IND looks like a schedule loss for Pacers so no excitement but ofc a pleasant surprise is possible.

The next 7 games for the Wolves will be crucial. 6/7 on the road against a touch schedule. 2 back to backs in this stretch.

Fingers freaking crossed. LOSE YOU LOSERS!!!

Minnesota has decided they are road warriors now, 0-5 at home but like 4-1 on the road with wins at the Clippers, Lakers, Kings, and Mavericks since the conley trade.

This team is utter chaos and i am done with any speculation on them haha

Absolutely want OKC to beat Toronto. A win by the Thunder pushes the Wolves closer to out of the playoffs and into the lottery.

Two teams have to overtake them for that to happen, and getting OKC up to that point would help dramatically.

Actually Tor vs OKC is not a win win. We want OKC to win not only to create more separation between us but we also want them to catch the wolves.

That is crazy as hell. It is actually 5-1 on the road with a blowout win over the hawks as well. If you asked any of us before that stretch we would have maybe guessed 3-3 at best but likely 2-4.
 
Huge pick watch game today... Bulls vs Wolves.

Lets hope the Lonzo surgery news havent gotten Bulls down too much and they can squeeze out a win.

Bulls are a half game out of the last Eastern play-in spot. I think they keep fighting all the way to the end - so there’s hope.

I’m pretty sure Portland and New Orleans have decided to tank the rest of the season and hope for a jump into the top 4.

Gobert/Naz/Rivers are all doubtful for tonight, but so is Caruso so they'll miss his defense. Definitely foresee a nuclear Ant game in-coming.

Hopefully the flightless Pelicans can beat the flightless Rockets. Looks like Dame/Jerami are both doubtful against Boston so Portland is probably going to get destroyed again (a decently healthy Blazers team with Lillard, Grant, Simmons, and Nurk dropping to 31-39 is the disappoint of the season, worse than Chicago imo). Hopefully Washington can beat the Cavs without Jarrett Allen.

Mavs/Lakers is kind of a push I think, but it is gearing up to be the most pathetic game of the year. Luka/LeBron are officially out, with Kyrie/AD/THJ/Morris/McGee all doubtful and very unlikely to play imo.

Yeah I think Bulls are bound to hit reset button next offseason and at this point LaVine is hot so maximizing his value is the most impactful thing they can do.

Blazers look like they are tanking for sure but I think Pels are not and latest word is Zion might come back in few weeks and they feel like they can compete if they get fully healthy at the right time.

Rockets have few good wins lately so I'm concerned but I just read Zion looks like he will be back maybe even in March and that Pels believe in their team if they get fully healthy.

Mavs are trash even with Kyrie and Luka and both have been injured a while now.. but I'm hoping Lakers can stay hot and push Minny down a spot.

The Bulls Wolves game... super critical... Jazz Blazers next week is right there too. The Wolves should blast the Bulls cuz they suck... which means they likely lose cuz this Minnesota team is so wildly unpredictable.

I am not a Pels fan, but I have to admit that seeing something like a 6 or 7 seed make some real noise in the playoffs would be exciting. Could be what happens if they get fully healthy and peak at the right time. Might make for a fun post-season.

Pels are playing next 2x Houston, Spurs and Charlotte. We should out tank them pretty easily.
