Invaders look to win the pennant outright against a Nitecaps squad that has dropped five straight.
Ticket vs. Wingo, with the critically important No. 2 seed on the line. Wingo leads in points by 53.
Swat vs. E Team with huge implications for seeding and the last playoff spot itself. The E Team now holds the tiebreaker by 24 points, but a loss here combined with a Wingo win would eliminate the E Team, the second highest scorer in the league, from the Big Dance. That would also drop Ticket from 2nd to 4th.
Wins by the E Team and Ticket, on the other hand, would clinch the No. 2 seed for Ticket and vault the E Team into third place. Talk about do or die.
As best as I can tell, no team besides the Invaders has clinched a Big Dance spot, but Ticket can do it with one more win.
Biggest match of the year and I've got three injured centers and an old guy who plays 20 minutes a game of the bench. Excellent. But hey, just get up and go!
I noticed in my other league that a lot of players with seemingly minor aches and pains are being shut down leading into this week for the all-star break or not being activated when ready to come back from injury to get an extra week's rest.... a few other points of inquiry... I assume we are not having a supplemental all-star Sunday with one game left? I also assume we will start Match 35 a week from Thursday instead of Friday since the games start again the Thursday following the all star game? Playoffs under that scenario start 2 weeks from today?
The E Team contacted Swat, slightly after deadline but before the start of any game involving his players, requesting he be allowed to insert, for the first time this season, Zach Lavine in place of Lamarcus Aldridge, who's in the shop for maintenance.
I haven't heard. I assume he's cool with it. The change came before any of my guys played and not long after the deadline. As it happens, it may not matter given the numbers his guys are putting up and mine aren't.

Durant, Lillard, Griffin, Aldridge, LouWill, Pau
Swat sez:
Kyrie 1, Mitchell 2, Middleton 3, ADavis 4, Drummond 5, Whiteside 6
answer to Pacer question was Ron Artest before his demise following ...obviously before the malice in the palace...I would've guessed Buse
Invaders play with Jokic/GF/Butler/Beal/Lowry and Oladipo

Hoping Sean will be sporting about it.
so is Lavine a go with Sean?

Ticket Wan Kenobi may be my only hope.
Ticket pulls Westbrook, who performs well. So E Team could make up 3 games with three left in the season.
