Around the NBA - March 2018

[KingSpeed]

Yes, but we shouldn't sit here rooting for games as if we're locked into the 3 seed

We have a 1.5 cushion and control our own destiny. I'm going to cheer as if we are going to achieve our goal.

Same, but you always have to be realistic. Just as likely we could be a 4 as a 3.

Realistic is we have a great shot at 3.

 

[Lukee]

Some great games tonight. Would love to see Warriors and Jazz winning.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Everyone still think he would have helped our team?

Never did.

 

[Lukee]

I don't think the Spurs make the playoffs.

Kawhi'll be back for Pelicans

 

[jonnyboy]

Man how many free agents now have claimed "Portland was my next choice"? And they're all sitting below us in the standings now. I hope some guys are paying attention. This year could be a big game changer when it comes to us attracting FAs. We're even getting some media attention.

That's a brutal closing schedule for a team on life support. Kawhi better come back in top form for them to have more of a chance than hoping one or two other teams fall on their faces.

He didn't look anything near the old Kwahi earlier in the year when they tried to play him. He couldn't play back-to-backs then, so I assume they will likely do the same this month.

I still think they make the playoffs and hang on to the 7th seed. They will be an easy 4-0 for the Warriors of Rockets.

Thank God. Our prospects werent looking good to start the year.

I actually prefer the 4-0 first round exit scenario for the Spurs over them being in the lottery. That would net them the no. 1 pick for sure. We all know that Pops sold his soul to Lucifer long ago.

 

[B-Roy]

Jesus that's rough.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Not in the least - and I was one of the ones feeling desperate and wanting to get him. Huge bullet dodged there - kind of like Turkoglu.

That's why I'm saying he needs to come back in top form. They don't have the margin of error to make it in playing .500 ball, which in itself will be tough with that schedule.

[SportsAndWhine]

I don't think the Spurs make the playoffs.

It was bound to happen some decade!

 

[handiman]

It was bound to happen some decade!

Or millennium.

 

[blue9]

OMG - I hope they miss the POs! That would be amazing! As long as they don't win the lotto...

 

[DDolla]

Imagine Spurs don’t make the Playoffs then trade LMA for the first pick and draft Ayton.

 

[Lukee]

Let's go Warriors..? ugh

 

[Boob-No-More]

Imagine Spurs don’t make the Playoffs then trade LMA for the first pick and draft Ayton.

Nobody is trading the first pick in the draft for 33-year old LaMarcus Aldridge.

BNM

It's crazy to think he's already going to be 33 this summer.

 

[Lukee]

Timberwolves making fun of Warriors fans in arena on timeouts. Love it!

 

[BBert]

Everyone still think he would have helped our team?

Everyone didn't think that.

 

[Wizard Mentor]

Carmelo Afflalo.... Carflalo?

 

[SIeepwalker]

Nick Young sucks

 

[Chris Craig]

Come on Jazz beat the Pelicans

 

[SIeepwalker]

Mitchell has 2 points on 1-8 shooting at half, he needs to wake up

 

[SIeepwalker]

wow Rubio that was awful

 

[SIeepwalker]

The Jazz announcers sound like they want to kill themselves even when their team scores
