    Wait, really??? That's amazing! I had no idea they could clinch a non-clinch tonight. What a great evening.

    I didn’t know either. They have 4 games left. And they are behind Sac and DAL 3 and 2.5 games. It’s highly unlikely, but still mathematically possible. What am I missing?

    I don't think you're missing anything. I think that tweet is incorrect.

    The most failed big 3 ever, besides WOW. Anyway, hope they lose a few more games so we get a better draft pick. Maybe it’s time to shut down Dbook for the season

    Barstool tweeted that the Suns have been eliminated. This makes no sense -- what am I missing???

    Same, but I don't understand the math. Someone smarter than me please explain.

    I mean it's only from the worst account on NBA Twitter. Not surprising at all.

    Yeah, but a bunch of accounts are tweeting it. Maybe it's just a circle-jerk of misinfo?

    No good accounts are tweeting it. They probably just think that because of the Lakeshowyo tweet lmao.

    Look on the NBA app and the Blazers who have 1 loss more than the Suns have an "o" beside them on the standings while the Suns don't.

    Even if Mavs/Kings both hold the tie breakers, there still needs to be a one more game difference for them to be officially eliminated.

    Looked it up, Suns have tiebreaker over Mavs, Kings have tiebreaker over Suns.

    Those tweets were incorrect, the NBA haven't rule out the Suns from play-in yet (it'd put the little "o" next to Suns) too. even though very unlikely (Suns wining 3 of their remaining 4 games AND the Mavs/Kings losing ALL of their remaining 3/4 games), the Suns still mathematically in the play-in race.

    lol the Suns are screwed once they trade Durant. Look at this pic - they have no one else except for Booker.

    Doesn’t really matter who gets picked 9th or 10th since we’re picking Cooper Flagg at #1

    Mathematically incorrect. If they lose one more game they are officially out, which should happen Tuesday night vs GSW. Even NBA.com still shows they have not clinched the no-playoffs.

    Stupid people sharing wrong info.
