If they weren't able to beat New Orleans Pelicans even Lebron James and Anthony Davis played with good stats, how come they can match with those teams left for them? Beating Denver Nuggets twice even has a low chance compared to being struck by lightning. There's a Phoenix Suns and Warriors too although they might be able to pass the latter team since Steph Curry is resting.

I even think the lower team OKC can beat them lol.

The Lakers are done now. It's a great run. See you LBJ next season as the number 1 All-Time Scoring list and I hope the Lakers will have a big overhauling attempt in the post-season.

That 76ers game was brutal.  The shocking thing to me about it wasn't that they scored 144 points and beat the Hornets by 30, but that they did it in such a balanced scoring way.  When I first saw the score I thought for sure Embiid would have 50 points as he chases behind LeBron James for the scoring title, but he only had 29, which is actually below his average.  That leaves him 0.3 points per game behind LeBron now as the race for scoring champion heats up.  I see that Durant, who is currently 0.7 points back from LeBron has nearly 20 points halfway through the second quarter in his game, so it looks like he's still trying to get that title.  I think it will come down to LeBron and Giannis in the end and whoever wins the scoring title might just be the one to walk away with the MVP, although Jokic is currently leading the MVP race and nowhere near the scoring title...

I thought that Joel is leading the MVP race, although it may change because they have been losing games in their last 5 while Giannis is closing in.

I think though the race will be a 3 battle between the Giannis, Joel and Jokic. Yes James is playing good, but the Lakers is in no position right now.

Poor Durant. Scored career high 55 but still lost. Ice Trae was in the building! Quavo is happy, whole Atlanta is happy.

No chance for the Nets to be in the top 6, with the loss to the Hawks, they'll be in the play-in tournament.

I don't understand why Irving and Durant try to do everything in the scoring department, they don' share the ball well, in this loss, only two of them have scored a double-digit, not good for a team.

I doubt they'll lose in the play-in tournament.. Maybe the Lakers will but not the Nets. Durant and Irving have the experience in the playoffs, and they get better in that kind of situation, just like the past playoffs, if only Irving was not injured, they might beat the Bucks that time.

Of course, fans will be disappointed as it's another super team not able to make it to the playoffs. We slowly accepted that the Lakers has a very less chance of making the playoffs based on how they are playing now, but not seeing the Nets, I think that's another big thing, and I don't believe that it will happen.

Simmons has not played yet, imagine how it will improve the defense if he will be in the court.
I hope he will fit though. 

Atlanta Hawks defeated Brooklyn Nets 122-115. Trae Young had a very good performance with 36 points and was the most effective player for the team to win.
Durant and irving scored 86 points in total but it wasn't enough for the win. Durant's performance was very good, but when everyone in the team is not playing well, it is a bit difficult to win a match

Atlanta Hawks got a really nice win after a tight game against Brooklyn Nets. And it was a magical night for Kevin Durant too. He scored 55 points in this game and showed one of his best performances of the season. But when there is not a big team play, you can still lose the game like it happened here too. They lost by 122-115 still. However Brooklyn Nets must be still happy to guaranteed promoting to the playoffs. But it is impossible for them to enter top six from now on. So they will play an extra playoff round.
