NBA: Week 24

[Borgsta]

Utah down 1 with 11 seconds to go

 

[PHX]

And Dallas win.

Denver should win 1 out of their last 3 (Win Memphis, Lose Houston and @Utah)
Warriors should win 2 of their last 3 (Win Clips, Sonics and lose @Phoenix)


So if they end up on the same wins and losses who has the edge in the standings?

shit the baron takes a lot of shots! for a PG 25 is too many, but at least he still dishes dimes to his mates. a triple double to boot in spite of 1-9 3pt !!

Yeah him and S-Jack killed them.

Monta had a pretty good game.

 

[Borgsta]

I can't believe Dirk was clutch.

Smush Mush getting some minutes for the Clippers vs his old crew.

 

[peternorth]

OMG my man Farmer hits a massive long 3 at the buzzer.

Points don't count against the Clippers.

They actually count negatively towards your season total.

we (Denver) have the edge if we are even points..

we should win against Memphis. Very Good chance against Houston. and 50% chance against Jazz

If you beat Houston in Denver you are good (assuming you beat Memphis, and if you don't you should automatically not be able to play playoffs) because you will lose to the Jazz in Utah.

 

[eathb]

it depends.

jazz might be resting their players now for the playoffs, since they've cliched 4th seed.
im hoping houston rests up t-mac, so it could make our road easier to clinch that seed.

looking at the standings, i hope to hell we don't get the spurs again.

 

[Paddy_Mac]

Momentum is building for the Mavs.

 

[PHX]

I can't believe Dirk was clutch.

Yeah but it's not the play-offs yet.

 

[apollo_creed]

Momentum is building for the Mavs.

A first round loss to the Lakers is on its way I'm afraid.

I wish it wasn't but looking at the standings and remaining games, the match-up looks likely as does them beating you.

1 - Everything Old is New Orleans Again
2 - Los Angeles (striving for three in a row again!)
3 -
4 - Utah (likely to stay there with their lucky you can still lose but stay here pass)
5 -
6 -
7 - Dallas
8 - Denver
The rest I'll wait to predict until after today's games.

Cheers, I forget every year how they split them if its even.

 

[PHX]

Bron Bron getting alot of support today.

 

[peternorth]

big one today, NO @ LAL today.

 

[peternorth]

man, i mean seriously, come on man, luis scola on fire in the first. WTF was that circus shot scoop layup?? should buy a lotto ticket and ask for a threesome with two hotties in the crowd!!

 

[apollo_creed]

what's the record for offensive boards in a game by one team?

my goodness.

 

[PHX]

Orlando need to fire up in the last two games. Sounds like we're being very lazy with our defence since securing third. Not good at all, we've had our rest, it's now time to wake up and play solid committed ball again.

Cleveland's going to lose to Chicago too.

I might be wrong but I think Lebron scored about 3 points in the whole 2nd half so far.

 

[Darealrath]

Pacers win again...but Atlanta does too. Left this run too late.

 

[PHX]

Atlanta

Sat, Apr 12 Boston 7:00 pm L
Tue, Apr 15 Orlando 7:00 pm Orlando have been Atlanta's bitches in recent years so its possibility but should be a L.
Wed, Apr 16 at Miami 7:30 pm W

Indiana

Sat, Apr 12 Charlotte 7:00 pm W
Mon, Apr 14 at Washington 7:00 pm Possibly
Wed, Apr 16 New York 7:00 pm W

It's not out of the picture, that would even you up if you could get past Washington but again I cant remember how they are sorted and if you would come out ahead in the tie. It's a bit of a long shot.

We own the tiebreaker.

I'm worried Orlando and Boston might be on cruise control. Washington will be tough for us but we should win the other two.

The big one was when Toronto let Atlanta get out of jail about a week ago. If Toronto hadn't screwed up I think we'd make it for sure. Now we are relying on two teams already set in the playoffs to do the business for us.

 

[apollo_creed]

Fair play to Houston.

Outside of Amare and Shaq - the Suns couldn't have shot the ball any worse.

Bad game to brick it.

Oh well.

It likely means the Lakers/San Antonio first up.
