@SFGiants Ok - so "traditional" is NOT a 7 inning game? What the F. A "traditional" doubleheader is TWO NINE INNING GAMES that has existed FOREVER up until COVID last year. There is nothing "traditional" about a 7 inning game or two 7 inning games making up a doubleheader. WTF?? 5/3/21, 2:30 PM

5. Los Angeles Lakers (🔼)
Record: 37-28
Games Ahead (7th): 1.0
*Holds tiebreaker vs. POR
Games Back (5th): —
*DAL holds tiebreaker
Last Result: 93-89 W vs. DEN
Next Opponent: vs. LAC on Thursday
Twenty-four hours removed from a listless loss to the 11th-place Raptors, the Lakers gutted out an emotionally electric win over the Nuggets. Without LeBron. Go figure. Los Angeles couldn’t ask for a better start to just a brutal week, with the Clippers, Blazers, and Suns all waiting before next Monday. For now, L.A. can exhale the tiniest sigh of relief that they are in sole possession of fifth for now (the Blazers’ loss also helps immensely). James’ status (day-to-day with a sore right ankle) will be the center of attention during the Lakers’ most crucial week of the season.
6. Dallas Mavericks (🔽)
Record: 36-28
Games Ahead (7th): 0.5
*Hold tiebreaker vs. POR
Games Back (5th): 0.5
*Hold tiebreaker vs. LAL
Last Result: 111-99 L vs. SAC
Next Opponent: @ MIA on Tuesday
Dallas sat out Monday’s game of musical chairs, watching the Lakers gain a victory the Mavericks must now match to keep pace. Doing so against a desperate Miami team on Tuesday is no small matter — the Heat have won three in a row and seven of their last 10. Still, Dallas holding tiebreakers over both the Lakers and Blazers give it a slightly bigger margin for error.
7. Portland Trail Blazers (🔽)
Record: 36-29
Games Ahead (11th): 7.0
Games Back (6th): 0.5
*DAL, LAL hold tiebreakers
Last Result: 123-114 L @ ATL
Next Opponent: @ ATL on Monday
Without the tiebreaker over the Mavs and the same issue to be resolved with the Lakers on Friday, the Blazers needed to do everything they could to stay in control of their own destiny. That effort faltered on Monday with a high-scoring loss to the Hawks, who drilled 20 of their 41 attempts from 3-point range. The Blazers are mostly healthy now, but that health needs to translate to wins if they want to avoid the perils of the Play-In.
8. Golden State Warriors (🔼)
Record: 33-32
Games Ahead (11th): 4.0
Games Back (6th): 3.5
Last Result: 123-108 W @ NOP
Next Opponent: @ NOP on Tuesday
Draymond Green found the Time Stone on Marvel Night, turning in a throwback triple-double and even printing a poster jam in a vital victory for the Warriors. Golden State is now in eighth, again where a team gets two Play-In chances to snag one win and make the playoffs. Following the same storyline would be best for the endgame, as the Warriors face the same Pelicans team looking to avenge itself on Tuesday.
9. Memphis Grizzlies (🔽)
Record: 32-32
Games Ahead (11th): 3.5
Games Back (6th): 4.0
Last Result: 118-104 L vs. NYK
Next Opponent: @ MIN on Wednesday
The Grizzlies’ season-long dance around .500 continues with a loss to the streaking Knicks. Starting guards Ja Morant and Grayson Allen shot a combined 2-for-19, while the Memphis defense was completely picked apart. The Grizzlies slid to ninth place, though where they ultimately finish could depend on their season finale against Golden State — a game that will decide the head-to-head tiebreaker with the Warriors.
10. San Antonio Spurs (–)
Record: 31-33
Games Ahead (11th): 2.5
Games Back (6th): 5.0
Last Result: 110-99 L @ UTA
Next Opponent: @ UTA on Wednesday
The Spurs have now lost four in a row, but are somehow still trail eighth-place Golden State by one game in the loss column. The glass-half empty take looms in the form of a rematch with Utah on Wednesday. San Antonio must do better either attacking or defending the paint, where they were outscored 66-46 on Monday.
11. New Orleans Pelicans (–)
Record: 29-36
Games Back (10th): 2.5
Last Result: 123-108 L vs. GSW
Next Opponent: GSW on Tuesday
The Spurs’ losing skid beckons as an invitation, one the young Pelicans have been unable to answer. A vintage performance by Curry and Green kept New Orleans on the outside looking in, still trailing 10th-place San Antonio by three games in the loss column with only seven games remaining. They have a chance for immediate revenge and results against the Warriors on Tuesday.

The 49ers drafted Lance with the No. 3 overall pick on Thursday, knowing he will need time to develop and that Garoppolo can help the 20-year-old transition from North Dakota State to the 49ers. Garoppolo told ESPN's "Keyshawn, JWill & Zubin"that he will use his own experiences learning under Brady to help Lance.
"It's kind of coming full circle," Garoppolo said. "You go through this NFL career and you start as a young guy coming in. Tom kind of showed me the ropes. The competition between us was awesome. It really made me grow as a rookie and as a young player. So, that's kind of what me and Trey, we'll mold our relationship into that. But it will happen naturally. It's one of those things you can't force anything. Just let it come as it may."
The first thing Garoppolo did after the 49ers selected Lance was ask general manager John Lynch and coach Kyle Shanahan for the rookie's number, knowing he will play an important role in Lance's NFL career.
"I try to use my own personal experiences and just what I went through, what helped me, what challenged me as a young player," Garoppolo said. "I'm going to use those tools that helped me and try to help Trey out. It's hard to come into this league, I know how it was coming from an FCS school to the NFL. It's a bit of an adjustment, the speed, whatever you want to call it, it's just different. So, whatever I can do to help, him I'll be more than happy."
The communication has been good," Garoppolo said. "There really hasn't been anything unsaid. Everything has been put on the table. I'm just happy to have the opportunity to play football. At the end of the day, that's what I'm here for, that's what I signed up for. As long as I have the opportunity to go out there and win some games and play good football, that's all you can ask for at the end of the day.
