Next Tuesday we play the Warriors and Minny plays OKC.
If we win, we advance.
If we lose, and:
- If Minny loses, Warriors advance on the head to head tiebreaker.
- If Minny wins, we have a three-way 3-1 tie where each team has a head to head loss against another 3-1 team, meaning point differential is our tiebreaker. Currently we have a big lead on this tiebreaker. We need to hope for a small loss for us and a small win for Minny. Kings are +29, Warriors +5, Wolves -3.
- We don’t have any path to the wildcard, so don’t worry about it.
So basically if we win, it’s simple. If we lose, we need the Wolves to win and we need both games to be close-ish, like single digit differences would be in the clear.
Apologies in advance if I fucked any of that up.
Top team from each group plus 1 wild card from each conference (we don’t have a shot at the wild card, only winning our group). Then it is 8 team single elim in Vegas. Three rounds of win or go home games. I think it’s gonna be super fun if we make it.
The quarters are not in Vegas yet, we could have another home game the first week in Dec. Semis and Final are in Vegas.
