Lol at that travel too.
Edit: Scratch that. I intended to send the message last night but I see now that Zyzz posted it already.
Not sure I've seen this anywhere, so here's the remaining schedule for every team fighting for playoff position in the West:
4. Spurs (45-32): @LAC, @LAL, vs POR, vs SAC, @NO
5. Thunder (45-33, .5 behind SA): vs GS, @HOU, @MIA, vs MEM
6. Jazz (44-33, 1 behind SA): vs LAL, vs LAC, @LAL, vs GS, @POR
7. T'Wolves (44-34, 1.5 behind SA): @DEN, @LAL, vs MEM, vs DEN
8. Pelicans (43-34, 2 behind SA): vs MEM, @PHO, @GS, @LAC, vs SA
9. Nuggets (42-35, 3 behind SA): vs IND, vs MIN, @LAC, vs POR, @MIN
10. Clippers (41-36, 4 behind SA): vs SA, @UTA, vs DEN, vs NO, vs LAL
Winning 3 out of 5 seals the deal regardless of what happens with the rest of the teams, but in order to avoid HOU and GS the Jazz may even need to win 4 games, since the Wolves own the tiebreaker and their schedule is not that hard. A lot will depend on those two DEN-MIN games though.

That was the play I mentioned in the gamethread. Best defense I ever saw from Rudy. And the video should have started a few seconds earlier.

Looking at that I’m hoping things just stay the way they are. Give me Portland in round 1.

Really need to root for Denver tonight - at least one of their two games against Minnesota has to mean something to them. Luckily the first game is at the Pepsi Center.
I'm torn as to whether or not to root for LAC tonight - a loss would all but knock them out of the playoffs and Thursday's game would be meaningless to them.
But the 4 seed would be sweet too.

Lakers don’t own their pick this year. BOS gets it if they somehow crack the top three in the lotto but don’t win otherwise it’s PHI.

I know that we have been very good on the road recently, but I would still definitely prefer the home court advantage if possible. So, let's shoot for the 4 seed. Would you rather play the Rockets or Warriors? I know that the Warriors are beat up, I still definitely don't want to face that team when the 3-ball is on point.

1000000x the Rockets. People forget playoff Warriors, they lost 1 game.
Thanks.
