Okay so now we want Memphis to beat LA tomorrow

[KingSpeed]

Let's keep SA and Memphis in 2/3 spots and have Houston outplay the Clippers. If Memphis wins tomorrow, Clippers fall to 6th and Houston is at 5th where we want them.

It wouldn't necessarily be the end of the world if Memphis looses as well. They'd be tied with Houston but Houston has the tie breaker over them which would propel them to the 5th seed.. Atleast I think so??

True. This is all so very complicated. Like you, I really hope we face Houston. They are the most beatable team in the playoffs. And that includes Brooklyn and Boston.

But if it's a 4-way tie (highly likely if LAC beats Memphis), then Memphis ends up 5th:

I don't know how I feel against Memphis right now, but I'll take anyone besides the Spurs.

1 GS
2 SA
3 Memphis
4 Portland
5 Houston
6 Clippers
7 Dallas
8 New Orleans

Ok root for Memphis tomorrow should be the plan. I don't think they can win tomorrow tho, they just played today and clips are coming off like 3 days rest. But we shall see

Slumping or not we don't want to have to play MEM. Would rather play LAC than the Grizzlies. Of course Hou over both.

 

[kjironman1]

I really just want the Blazers healthy (at least the ones available) and rested. They will give any team a bunch of good games.

I just want the playoffs to fucking start already

I would love to get Houston though.....

But isn't houston tumbling down the standings, leading to your jubilation in the other thread?

Aparrently both Conley & Allen out tonight for Memphis, so that's pretty big favor to Clippers... Conley may be out until end of season too.

 

[riverman]

Conley has a bum ankle...might help if we face the Grizz

Rockets fans are really hoping to play against us, since we are the "weakest" team in the west:

Would love to show them up again.

Houston can tumble from 2nd to 5th.

HAHAHAHAHA! We own the Rockets. Careful what you wish for, Rockets fans. AGAIN.

At this point it looks like we will be playing MEM in the playoffs (which might be ok if Gasol and Conley are both still banged up).

The last time we played Memphis, Aldridge had 16 points at half and then sat out the second half. He knows he can slaughter them when it matters.

Give me Houston or Memphis. Memphis because Conley/Allen are likely both to no be near 100% come playoff time and Houston because Clutchfans would be on suicide watch if we beat them again.

It looks like this right now. Still can change but this is the way it look tonight.
