^^You fail to see those lesser teams tend to give problems to ANY team, even though they eventually lose. Last night Dallas beat #3 Portland, BTW.

Portland 48-30 @Hou @SA @Den vs Utah. They could lose all 4 WITH Lillard Utah 45-33 mmmmm

I posted this in the game-thread, but this is the right place for it: Rubio was famous for being a terrible shooter who got hot for stretches. So what's the difference? The length of those stretches: First seasons, they lasted a couple of weeks. The following seasons they were 1 month, maybe 2...

People expected us to destroy the Lakers but it's not that easy. They haven't been soundly beaten by anyone in their last 19 games. For instance, they lost by 10@ind, 11@gs, 9@den, 5vspor and they won @sa and vsden. It's not that easy and today they were on fire. Things to improve asap: 1...

This might not be crazy at all: Denver 42-35 ind(W) min(W) @lac(W) por(W) @min(W) 47-35 Minnesota 44-34 @den(L) @lal(W) mem(W) den(L) 46-36 Denver can win out. They have to beat Minnesota twice, which is very plausible, plus Indiana and Portland (who will be locked at 3 by then and probably...

I know, but still, he hasn't played competitive basketball for 7 months.

The thing that impresses me the most is that for a guy who has missed so much time with injuries, he looks incredibly fast. He covers so much space. Ricky, Rudy, and Dante with the looong arms. What a reinforcement we got.

I loved how twitter-man Jimmy Butler and fake-tough-guy Jeff Teague (who checked out of the most important game for the Wolves in 14 season because of "knee soreness") got to watch Ricky Rubio crush their souls. Karma is a b*tch!

Most of Minnesota's problems are related to lack of effort, but against us there is a rivalry brewing so they give us their best. That game will be very difficult.

Against the Jazz, Kings-Mavs-Spurs-Warriors-Celtics combined to shoot 56-106 from 3, 52% Jazz shot 56-176 from 3 in those 5+Atlanta , 31% 70!! more attempts to make the same number of 3s

Some players get a free pass, others have to be absolutely perfect or any mistake will be treated like THE REASON for any loss.

Is this a joke? It has to be.

Guys, it's almost done. 49 wins get us 4th place, 48 probably 5th, 47 6th-7th depending on tiebreakers, 46 8th. So, in order to miss the playoffs, we would have to finish 3-5 and either Nuggets finish 6-1 or Clippers 6-2, and they play each other once, plus other really difficult games. In...

I gotta say I watched the Warriors feed and it wasn't as bad as advertised. Yes, they said Crowder believed he was LeBron James, but it was after 2 great quick shots by Crowder. One of them said something like: "he's feeling it. Next possession he's going to get the ball and do the same. He...

Unexpected loss for the Spurs!

Spurs-Bucks

The Nuggets are almost done, but they are only 1 game back. They live and die by the 3. All it takes is them getting hot from 3 at the right stretch (right now) and we are in trouble. Remember how the Jazz were red hot for a stretch where they would make 3s like if they were free throws? I want...

As far as I'm concerned, if the Jazz make the playoffs, this season is an incredible success. If we play the Rockets, it's 4-0 Rockets and every game will be extremely frustrating. If we play the Warriors, every game will be extremely fun and a 7 game series is even probable.

Warriors are not catching the Rockets and the Blazers are 10 games behind. So they could lose all remaining games and still finish 2nd. What's the point of risking injury to their big 4? They sure learned that lesson with Curry yesterday. They have been massacred by injuries. I'm sure they'll go...
