    These next two games will determine our course for the rest of the season. Win both and we're third seed and still in race for a possible top 2 seed. Lose both and we're in a battle for 5th/6th/7th. Split and we're just in the middle hoping for HCA against Clippers.

    I think our starters+bench+injured players you mentioned is our ideal roster for the playoffs, with Crabbe and Watson on the IR.

    Well considering how the Mav's played against Denver the other day, I don't see a problem w/us winning this one....

    I think the Mavs will have a strong bounce back game. I still think we win, but it will be a close game.

    Unless Aldridge finds his form again, it's going to be a long road trip.

    that's a lot of assuming with plenty of games left.

    Strangely enough, LA seems to play better on the road.

    Go Blazers!

    That game still makes me uneasy when I think about it. (The dallas one... although the LA game just pisses me off, considering what they did in NOLA and against the Clippers). I know our starters whooped them... but almost losing that big lead sucked...

    Losing the season series to Houston would be a big deal. Would make it very hard for us to get the third seed with the way they are playing.

    You think we can lose ground to Houston and lose the season series and still get the third seed? With the schedule we have?

    I think our record is bad when Lillard scores 30+ both seasons.

    Also, after the Houston game, there are only 19 games left.

    Major road trips, losing season series, Houston playing well= no 3rd seed unless we win these next two games.
