    They beat GS with those same three guys out. I took my little cousin to that game. They are Nikola Jokic's team now. Still a tough game for them

    Denver has a great future. If Murray is a legit star and develops more into a leadership role I can see them going far.

    With only 11 games left, I think any reasonable sports person would conclude we only have a very, very slim chance of making up the 4-5 game deficit and taking the 8th seed. I'm guessing we'll finish 36-46 at best but probably 35-47. It's ok to dream but I'm focusing on a much improved 2017/2018 season especially if we pick up at least one top FA acquisition and a new coaching staff.

    It's not slim. Everything is relative at this point. They play Denver 3 times still. The only bad thing is they play them twice on the road. But besides that Denver has a tough schedule with 8 road games.

    I still think the big hurdle is Portland, not Denver.

    If they beat Denver at Denver and if they win 2 out of the next 3 games then I am going to be very confident in our chances. We have to win almost every game left but I think we will. We are so much better than people realize. We will be prepared for Friday AND Saturday. I actually trust Gentry more now than ever before. We will beat the ROCKETS. AND DENVER. It will be an overwhelming balanced attack. Watch and enjoy my friends! I know we will be thrilled. We've been down for too long. We already have the pieces needed to crush our opponents. Denver knows we are coming for them. Also, Portland has an easier schedule no doubt but they still have little room for error. The last thing they need is to beat us to make it to the playoffs. We will beat them badly again!!!

    There will be more clear picture after our next 3 games

    DEN: @IND, NOP, @POR
    POR: NYK, MIN, @LAL, DEN
    NOP: @HOU, @DEN, @UTA

    if POR wins all and we don't. well..

    Again, we don't know if they have to win every game. They could lose all 3 games on this road trip and possibly not lose any ground. It all depends on what Denver, Portland, and Dallas does also.

    I can see Denver having a L, L, L, W, L streak coming. Portland otoh, could get hot. But they could also lose again like they did against Milwaukee.

    So it's just a matter of watching all 4 teams and see what they do. At this point we don't know if .500 basketball will get it done or better. Exciting to watch.

    Agreed, though I would be more worried about Portland given their schedule. I think more people will subscribe to this line of thinking after our next three games. Of course, I would rather make the playoffs than not make them, but I'm more focused and excited about the long-term potential of the team.

    "I'm not going to allow my putative owner to answer that question, this is an NBA related press conference. Paul Tagliabue and Roger Goodell have collectively sung their praises of Tom and if uh ESPN has a problem with that tell Mr. Skipper to call me at my office."

    This team has never put a streak together. We should have tanked.

    Won 5 of last 6... one bad stretch of 6 minutes in the waning moments of a 4th quarter on the 2nd night of a b2b... we'd be on a 6 game streak
