There's a really good chance the W's don't even finish with a winning record. The Lakers get to play them twice as well.

As a pirates fan, I really appreciate this collapse.

Yep. Only Utah has a good chance of missing the playoffs.

gsw is 3-7 in last 10, I'm guessing you're going with the whole "cant rain every day" reasoning?

I just think they are a good team. Certainly good enough to make at least the 8th seed. I may be wrong but i think they'll make it.

Guess you guys were right, Utah looks like a strong candidate.

Great night.

Utah loses a heartbreaker after a late game run by YOUR Cleveland Cavaliers.

The Lakers win after being down by over 20 points to New Orleans.

Lakers are now just 1.5 back and Utah has OKC and Chicago coming up this week.

Houston also lost.

By DIFF, the Warriors are -0.5, the Rockets +3.2, and the Jazz -0.1 while the Lakers are +1.0.

The Warriors seem vulnerable, but they've won 2 in a row, and it's going to be much harder for them to blow their lead over the Lakers. Utah is clearly our best hope.

Utah loses another heartbreaker. This time by 1 to the Bulls.

AND...

The Lakers, led by an absolutely ridiculous run by Kobe, come back to beat the Raptors in OT.

.5 back now!

Didnt think this pick would happen. Hopefully they get the 7th seed. We get our pick and they get blown out in 4.

I'd rather they get 8th seed, and somehow that seed has a worse record than it's eastern counterpart.
