This is the day more NBA podcast. We are brought to you by prize picks coming at you Monday morning. It's April 6th after the Wolves home loss to Charlotte on Sunday night, which now marks three losses in a row for the wolves with just four games to go in the regular season.

I got Wolves Beat Rider.

Chase Frederick here with me.

That puts the, where it puts the wolves in the standings and what that probably means for their first round matchup in the playoffs.

Minnesota going four and no the rest of the way, right? That feels unlikely

given what they've done, not that they couldn't turn a switch, not that, you know, Ant couldn't

come back, even this next game here. Like Indiana is a winnable game, obviously, maybe they find

their footing. But even at that point, Houston just has to win twice. And obviously, the wolves

play them once, which the wolves could then hand them one of those

losses and earn the tiebreaker.

That would be helpful.

But Houston would need to win two games out of at Phoenix, home Philly, home Memphis.

And Houston's won six in a row.

Certainly you could lose at Phoenix and then home Philly.

Like that's possible.

But it's pretty low odds. And so if you're combining that with Minnesota having to go four and oh the six seats

pretty well secured I was just looking at like fan dual odds because they yeah I saw and the wolves

are 20 to one to be the five seed, from what I saw.
