STILL AQLIVE!!!!
It might be 5% at those odds right now. But before tonight it would have been 2%. The more they win the higher the odds go each game all things stay the same.
Plus neither Denver nor Portland play defense. Portland is 22nd and Denver is 29th. Teams like that can't be trusted to do what you think they'll do.
We accomplished a bigger race tonight - race to 4th place in the southwest - first time since 2010-11
If the Warriors can maintain their lead in the standings as of now, they would start resting starters by the time they play the Pelicans.
#reversePelslife?
Durant ahead of schedule . May play vs Pels. #Pelslife

Barring a setback, Durant is known to be targeting the Warriors’ three-game homestand at the end of the season to return (April 8 against New Orleans, April 10 against Utah and April 12 against the Lakers). And as was the case back in July, when Durant left Oklahoma City behind by coming their way in free agency, the rest of the NBA is about to have every reason to be concerned again.
@ Quailman & Luckyman:
Fair enough, guys. Didn't want to take you your hopes or something, just explain myself. I'm just a person who doesn't like to get his hopes up for things that are really, really unlikely. Just because I cannot stand being disappointed at all and I've been far too many times in situations with an A LOT likelier positive outcome. So if I "know" that there is just a very small, theoretical chance for a positive outcome of some situation I don't believe in it until it becomes somewhat realistic and instead just prefer to look to the future (in this case: offseason and next season).
That doesn't mean I cannot be hyped in general, just not when the odds are so high against my team. But I am really looking forward to next year and actually I enjoy the last few weeks. Since Boogie is here there's actually something to look forward to. At least a real good chance that this team will become really, really good. And I guess that is what we were all looking for for a damn long time now...
This race is over! Its like being in a race where you're in 3rd and the only chance you got of winning is if the 2 people in front of you caught cramps before they reach the finish line.
I see the Rockets are really making a concerted effort to lose to the Trailblazers.
Oh well. Rockets decided to lose.
Alright I give up. Still want Ws though.
Portland lost Nurkic for the next 2 weeks with right leg fibula fracture. He changed there offense when they traded for him before the all star break. That might be a little help for us.
I wouldn't call them "hot" so much as they've hit a favorable part of their schedule with Harden just being injured. Now Phoenix on deck. During this hot stretch, they did come here and got smothered by 23.
That light is still flickering. Big loss for them. That Minnesota/Utah stretch will tell it.
I really cannot see how the Blazers do not manage to at least win 2 more out of 7 remainding games which should be enough. I actually might see us winning some more games and becoming the 9th seed when it's all said and done. Not that it would matter too much but finishing the season on a high note might be a good thing going forward...
This thread is officially dead.
I think this could be said about the Pels too.
If Blazers win Monday, eliminate #Pelicans from playoff contention, I'd assume Brow/Boogie minutes decrease. Maybe even a few DNP's (rest). https://t.co/0y4Rbb974H
