Official Around the NBA - March Edition!

Hahahaha no

Well I like it even better!!

You know, if it was a 10 point lead with a minute and a half left, can westbrook still get a t from the bench and help them lose? He's just so capable of doing that.

Monty for coach of the year? No Anthony Davis and the Pelicans are the hottest team in the NBA, right on the heels of Thunder.

Turn to Pelicans/Nuggets. We want the Pelicans to win and it's fun to watch Barton play. Perfect game for fun.

Glad we won to stymie the OKC win. If we just keep trading wins, the magic number shrinks just by sheer games. Love it.

 

[riverman]

Actually JJ and Will might just be a good combo for Denver. Looks like they are going to be the first bench guys in the rotation

They're not catching us. We'll win at least as much as last year and they would have to go undefeated to pass us. Not gonna happen. They need to worry about Pelicans.

Houston has won 5 in a row.

 

[KingSpeed]

Wow. Just looked it up: Pelicans won the season series vs OKC so they have the tiebreaker. OKC is screwed.

 

[KingSpeed]

Houston has won 5 in a row.

At the start of the day, they were both 4 so that's why I was saying that.

I dont like getting that comfortable when there is still some doubt. Crazier things have happened. Until we got it wrapped up, there's still room. (94.1% chance of us winning the division, 5.9% for them).

 

[KingSpeed]

Besides, Houston sucks.

 

[Strenuus]

At the start of the day, they were both 4 so that's why I was saying that.

But Houston still won. lol. So they would be -one- of the hottest teams. Not -the- hottest team. I hate houston just as much as the next blazers fan, but they did win 5 in a row.

Honestly, I don't think OKC will make the playoffs. Both stars are out and Pelicans are dominating without AD. And as I said, Pelicans have tiebreaker.

 

[Strenuus]

They still won 5 in a row. They are ahead of us in the WC. They can't be -that- bad.

Not as impressive as Pelicans.

They haven't been out of the first round in 6 years and Harden sucks in playoffs. They are not a threat.

That is huge. And hey, if OKC doesn't make the playoffs, that's awesome. But when OKC gets russ and KD back, they will probably get up to 6th or 7th... hopefully we stay around 4-5 so we don't have to face them. lol.

 

[KingSpeed]

And Houston hasn't come to Moda Center yet. They will lose there.

 

[Strenuus]

They haven't been out of the first round in 6 years and Harden sucks in playoffs. They are not a threat.

But, as for today, they are good. Doesn't guarantee long term success, but today they are good. And that's fine. Lets see how they do this year.

Umm there is no way the Thunder will get up to 6, lol, let alone 7th.

 

[Strenuus]

I sure hope so, but I'm not going to count my chickens before they hatch.

I hope not, but you never know. Too many games left.

 

[KingSpeed]

They aren't good. They needed LeBron to miss 8 freethrows to beat the Cavs. We destroyed Cavs in our home building. And Irving played.

 

[KingSpeed]

I hope not, but you never know. Too many games left.

They won't catch Dallas. Even with Durant and RW, they aren't that good.

 

[KingSpeed]

Can't judge everything by record. Warriors have best record in the NBA and they're horrible.

Honest question. Again, I do not like the Rockets whatsoever, it was an intense emotion filled series. But, why do you constantly bash the rockets so much? You give them no credit. It's like the fans that continue to discount us for just 'being a jump shooting' team. Were still really damn good. Same with the rockets. They play dirty basketball, but they can also play really good basketball, too. It's okay to give them some credit to where it is due. I mean, it wasn't like we blew them out in the series last year. lol. It was a DAMN good series and probably one of the best we fans will ever see.

lol. When you get on a roll, you just don't stop.

 

[Strenuus]

Watching Chandler... I'm so happy we got AAA...
