9th is right on per ESPN.I’m starting to think that we’re going to finish with the 9th worst record. Brooklyn did win tonight, but that bottom 8 is overall in the midsts of some elite level tanking. Other than Brooklyn, the rest of the bottom 8 are all on losing streaks ranging from 3 to 10 straight losses.
