That one nine-point loss was enough to cut Phila. down to size, all the way out of the playoffs (sixth place), to eighth place. The Magic Kingdom ascends to the playoff throne one one-thousandth of a percentage point ahead of the Miam-a High Ceilings.
Zollners loss to Rust last night was, in my way of thinking, a bad boding for the Hi-Cs on accounta Zollner plays in Bleak House tonight, or maybe it's today, I don't fucking know, at 6 bells. Is Z in a trough? Actually, they really are. Last night's Brooklyn Buffoonery was their THIRD loss in a row, the first time they have had a 3L this season. Cade Cunningham did not play last night with some injury, I understood it as load management on the first night of a back-to-back to be ready for the steel-cage death match tonight. Maybe it is, maybe it isn't. Whatever it is, Zollner needs to watch their back. Beans, with Hatem Tatum back is 3.5 games behind them. Z is -1.5 tonight.
