Either way, it reflects poorly on our coach at the very least. And very likely on Luka as well.

They had a shot at the 3rd seed

I don't think that was meaningless

Also, did you watch the Golden ST game?

Klay THompson was still playing in that game up til the 6 minute of the 4th QTR.

Which means both coaches Kidd and Kerr felt like it was very important to get that 3rd seed.
