Nets should drop to 9th seed

With the final day of the regular season NBA games the East play-in teams are all within a game apart, most should want to win to move up the standing but some could make a case for Brooklyn to rest KD and Kyrie to drop the final game. 

       Some would say Brooklyn losing tonight’s game and dropping down to the 9th spot in the East wouldn’t be a bad thing, with Milwaukee being the 2nd seed in the East Brooklyn would currently be playing the Bucks if they were to make it out of the play-in games, if I was in Brooklyn’s shoes I would drop to the 9th seed and possibly play either the Hawks or the Hornets in the play-in games and if they were to win play the Miami Heat in the first round. 

With the Miami Heat being one of the more vulnerable number seeds in the last couple years Brooklyn would have a good shot at winning that series versus the Heat.

LeBron out remainder season, Luka miss season finale

Last night had some interesting news and headlines from LeBron being out for the remainder of the season to Luka getting another technical foul.

       With the Los Angeles Lakers being out of the NBA play-in games the Lakers have officially shut down LeBron James for the remainder of the season. With James being out it will take him out of the NBA scoring title and winning his second. It was reported Friday afternoon LeBron suffered a ankle sprain on March 27th

Luka Doncic was assisted with his 16th technical foul of the season and will now be suspended for the Mavericks regular season finale. After Doncic was undercut by Trailblazers Elijah Hughes, after taking that shot Doncic was heated after no foul was called and Doncic was heard telling the Mavericks refs “How is that not a foul” and then that lead to Doncic’s 16th technical foul.
