    It's my proudest moment of being able to link Saints with Pels.

    Yea I definitely want the Spurs in the 1st round. If we can get a piece at the trade deadline which I believe we will then the TWolves don't scare me. I believe we have a chance with our roster as is but a solid piece puts us very close imo.

    It did say five. Crazy. I saw it, too, and just went with it.
    Good positive energy.

    But also, yo mama's fat.

    Wolves about to lose to the Blazers. Smh.

  9. #109
    We can still catch the Spurs and Wolves.....it's a long shot but doable.

    And go Boston.

  10. #110
    Well at least hopefully the Clippers lose. This 3 - 9 race in the west is kind of crazy. Hopefully we pull away some from the bottom. We aren't out of the clear yet. However maybe some teams tank it after the deadline.

  11. #111
    Wolves sat Butler is what happened. He's the true straw over there.

    But as I said above, amazingly the Wolves are only 2 games ahead of the Pels in the loss column. Their big edge is in having 5 more wins, but that's because they have played more games. I don't think the Pels will catch them, but it's far from statistically impossible. Pels are going to be 3 up on the Clippers, who are considered a threat. Well, they are only 3.5 back of the Wolves now. So if it's a vague not impossible threat one way, has to be the other way too.

  12. #112
    Well, ok, at least got another loss on those Clips. Still hoping maybe they blow it up here with the Cavs hunting for help.

    And the Wolves have Golden State up next. If they drop hat one, and the Pels somehow beat Houston, Pels would only be 2 1/2 back, and I'll add them to the list on the first page.

    I just take a look at our schedule and besides the next five games where we play the Rockets clippers OKC and the Wolves, i think our schedule is not that hard and that we have a chance to solidy our playoff spot and even chase that 3/4 spot if we can get some consistency and maybe some help thanks to a trade or a Solo comeback

    No one can say that we're a fan base who wears homer googles. My father-in-law asked me about the Pels' playoff prospects last week, and I said the same thing about a series against the T-Wolves. Minn isn't a championship-caliber team yet, but they've got several players who are peaking, an increasingly balanced attack, and they've turned up the defensive intensity in recent weeks. Manufacturing 4 wins against a team like that would be tough for the Pels.
    Old fan. Tired fan. I want to believe.

    People are forgetting Spurs finals mode is a completely different beast. Especially with Kawhi back. Minny in the postseason is a complete unknown. They could fall to pieces.

    I think I'd take Minny at this point

    We might be seeing cracks in the SA foundation. It's a young man's league, and their roster is dependent upon aging players. Now we hear that one of their players who is still in his physical prime is facing questions about his injury recovery time. The Kawhi situation is a bizarre one, and it will be interesting to see if the Spurs can get everything resolved and operating at peak performance in time for the playoffs.

    getting no help at all with DEN and OKC both at home.

    Been most annoying to finally go on a win streak and barely gain any ground because the entire bottom half of the West has decided to get hot simultaneouly.

    Last hope for the evening is that at least the Wolves can take another loss and fall down within reach of the pack.

    I would like to formally welcome the Wolves back into the neighborhood. They've got 20 losses on the season now, same as the Thunder, and only 1 less than the Pels.

  20. #120
    Also, as of this evening, Pels have the 10th best record in the NBA. Barely of course, and with Houston looming it may not last. But it's still a thing.

    1) 39-10 GSW
    2) 34-12 HOU
    3) 35-14 BOS
    4) 32-14 TOR
    5) 32-18 SAS
    6) 31-20 MIN
    7) 27-19 CLE
    8) 28-20 OKC
    9) 27-21 MIA
    10) 26-21 NOP

    OKC need another 6 game skid, or however many games it takes.

    They play hard, Dragic is underrated, and Spoelstra is a genuinely good coach.

    We have just not matched up well against the Wolves at all. Hope something changes. But the game totals are backwards on the first page.
