If they beat the Lakers, the reward is a 7 game series against last year's champs. But they'll lose to the Lakers again so there's that.

Losing the playoffs opportunity on a tiebreaker is the worst possible outcome we could have gotten today. The Suns played a stronger opponent and took care of their business so props to them. The playin series with the Lakers who the Pelicans disappear against is the worst possible opponent for them to face in the play in tournament. I just dont see the Pelicans taking the series so the season is pretty much a wrap. I was really hoping they could win one at home but they just for whatever reason, suck at home. I need a new pastime I guess. I am just so sick of the Lakers getting to where they need to go at the Pelicans expense. Everything from stealing away Anthony Davis to today's game just sticks in my craw. SMDH

We stink therefore Willie deserves our wrath.

Another game.

Another game.

So if we win, we secure the 7th seed?

If we lose Tuesday, we play the loser of the kings/Warriors for the 8th seed?

I am confused lol

Don't be confused, what you wrote is correct.

Win and 7th seed, lose and play winner of Kings/Warriors for 8th seed.

Sorry for not elaborating more,but I wasn't completely sure and still P'Oed off,but yes,I believe this is correct. I'd almost rather blow the laker game and get the 8,as I don't want to play denver.

Thanks! My actual birthday is on Tuesday!

Hopefully the Pels give you a big win on your actual birthday then.

I honestly rather play OKC than Denver in a series. We are food for Jokic

Man... They shut down the reddit.


I mean guess that's karma when all you do troll the Lakers and lose to them.

All this to get to another play-in. Just fail all around. Team has been so inconsistent at times. They look like a championship contender in some games then don't show up in the next game. That is all on coaching, losing all those close games and not showing up in many games.
