I think we punted HCA away today.

IMO I think HCA ended with the loss to the Clippers. I really doubt last night's game would have made a difference. Not with our remaining schedule.

Clippers had tons of injuries, rockets had tons of injures, I'm sorry but we shouldn't use that as an excuse

Rockets are a better team without Howard. End of story.... You look at their regular season record, and they have a better winning % than without Howard.

The Clips were only without Griffin. What other injuries you referring to?

Jamal Crawford comes to mind for one

Not necessarily. It looks like we're going to face one of the teams that doesn't win the SW Division. The Clippers are rolling & the only tough game they have is the Grizz . . . at home. They are moving up - no doubt about it. Meanwhile Hou, Mem, & SA all have tough remaining schedules. If we go 4-1 or 5-0, we still have a shot at HCA. The trump card being our Division Title being the tie-breaker. HCA is still within reach. If we had won last night the odds would be much better, but it's not out of reach.

Lets put our injuries into perspective here....

Wesley Matthews: 60 GP (will miss a total of 22 games)
Aldridge: 68 games played (Missed 9 games)
Nic Batum: 67 games (Missed 10 games) But we all know he played very hurt for at least 15 other games too
Joel Freeland: Played 44 games (missed 33 games)
Chris Kaman: Played 70 games (Missed 7 games)
Robin Lopez: Played 54 games (Missed 22 games)
CJ McCollum: Played 58 games (Missed 18 games)

Show me a team in the top 5 in the west that had more missed time from key players....

This is a different question mags..my point was the Clips lost Crawford as well as Griffin earlier so they did lose the majority of their bench scoring late in the season. We had an injury plagued year for sure.

But the reply was "Clipper dealt with the same amount of injuries" That is hardly the case. Only the Spurs really had as much injury as we did

They lost Jamal Crawford was a response to this statement

After we win the frickin' title, do you think anyone's going to care that we didn't get to 60 wins?

Portland Trail Blazers -- 2015 NBA Champions*

*Didn't get 60 regular season wins.
 
I should of kept to my original prediction of 55 wins, but river man tried to go more homer on me and say 60 wins... I changed it to 61 wins to beat him out!

Sly predicts 82 every year so I'm never going to top that list

Haha. 54 wins baby! And I'm sticking to it!
 
I'm going on record today predicting 54 wins which would be sweeter if we could beat the Spurs in the first round and sweep the Rockets in the second round just for fun
