What's new

OFFICIAL Postseason race thread *Sticky*

What Curry has done is amazing. IMV, he is easily the most exciting player to watch since Jordan. I think the nineties were the golden age of basketball but I think the players and teams today are in many ways analogous to then. The NBA is as good as it has been in a long while. It's a great time for basketball, anyone that doesn't recognize that is just plain wrong.

While I'm not necessarily going to argue that basketball was better in the '90s or '80s or whenever, I will point out that that nearly every major rule change in the NBA since I begun watching it has been designed with the sole purpose of helping out guards and creating more superstar guard. Everything from the restricted area under the basket(God, I loathe that one), to no hand-checking, to the defensive three-second violation. It's hard not to speculate about what the league would look like had they not done all this and who the stars would be.

Don't bring this up again! You have lots of closet Curry fans here.
 
Jazz need to win that road game at Denver. Denver is somehow favored, I think.

According to Lockes daily updates we are favoured in all but two games remaining, which I would assume are the spurs and clippers games. Unless we are favoured against the clippers at home. Not too absurd, but more believable than being underdogs at the nuggets.
 
Locke just tweeted this:

"WESTERN CONFERENCE PLAYOFF UPDATE
