Well they have:

Philly - potential
CHA - they're not tanking
Pistons - they're not tanking
CHA - they're not tanking
Boston - potential
Boston - potential
Pistons they're not tanking
Wizards - they're not tanking

Potentially 3 wins coming up... (2 of them at the expense of BOS though)

Well they lost to Philly and is looking good to lose to CHA as well today.


I knew it won't be easy... c'mon Bucks!!~!

Sooo basically you won't take the bet?

I'm not going to bet...there are too many things that play into final records including injuries and trades. And bet against someone in the STG? One would have to be barking mad to wager with someone in that cadre. You guys are like Ali Baba and the 40 thieves. :p Right now, though, I think Phoenix is a stronger team than Sacramento. Bledsoe has been great and the team is getting extremely strong play out of Dragic and the Morris brothers.

As for the overall tank, I don't see how the Jazz finish lower than Milwaukee. That roster looks ghastly! The only thing that might give them a few wins is that they play in the EC. Sacramento scares me a bit, although in terms of overall talent RIGHT NOW, I'd have to rank Cousins, Thomas and whoever you want to put third (Vasquez? Patterson?) over Hayward, Kanter, Favors.
 
Well, a mixed night for the tank. Orlando and Sacramento almost came away with BIG upsets. Washington won and Boston got a road win at Atlanta. Milwaukee got crushed by Charlotte. Go Jeffercats! Denver game is still up for grabs, but I assume Dallas will make a comeback.

The Bucks are legit scary.

We need to have some of our players get hurt in a bar fight, too.

Maybe later in the season. Right now we WANT Hayward to keep shooting. Kanter is playing terrible defense and isn't much better outside of 5 feet with his shot. Perhaps someone should steal Favors' fry sauce the next time they see him in Arctic Circle. Volunteers?

LOL.. tell that to Huge/Size/NAOS - he still thinks Hayward is on track to shooting 40% from 3's for the season.

They had some injuries. Chandler is back now. When Gallinari returns, they could compete for the 7th/8th seed. Portland fighting back against GS. Closed it to 5 at halftime after a poor start.

I've been saying this - POR will be better than GSW this year.


GSW's mistake was trading away Jack & Landry who made their team relevant last year. POR had no more reason to tank with their x2 perennial all stars in Aldridge & Lillard.

Portland really wasn't tanking. Their starters were decent, but they had a bench that rivals what Utah has had this year. GS traded away depth for a great 6th man. That's the risk. One of the core players goes down and there's a big drop off. When healthy, I think GS can hold their own against any team in the league. Defensively a bit soft, but those guys just don't miss shots. Klay and Curry are such tremendous shooters!
