I don't think it will be that close, unless we play down to the competition. ORL had a late OT game & looked seriously gassed. Hope we are not going to double and stay on their perimeter shooters & run run run.

fun game, the mcgee lobs were great.

here's to hoping we get the clippers first round. honestly, i think it's the only realistic chance we have of getting past the first round.

Great win. Falling apart & gassed ORL team served as a really good tune up game for us coming closer to Playoffs.

I would not agree with Clips being our only realistic chance to get past 1 st round. I may be dreaming but i see us having a solid chance to upset anybody other than the OKC & Grizzlies in the first round.

I would hate to play the Clips in the first round. Its playing 8 on 5 every game against them. Blake and Paul just bitch or flop their ways into wins. That team would be horrible if games were accurately called against them instead of fouls every time they flail about. I really can't stand that team or Blake Griffin with the **** they get from the league.

Agree on calls Clips get & i am sure many other teams go through such a clouded officiating bullsh@t. Looking at the other scenarios, Clips is lesser problem than the others to me.

Great win, things seem to be coming together nicely just in time for the playoffs. Gallinari finally had a good shooting night, should be a big confidence builder for him. Our point guards are clicking with McGee, finding him in the right spots, I don't see any reason he shouldn't be starting at this point. And Afflalo continues to be exceptional.

I agree that the Clippers would be the first preference for the playoffs, but I don't know if I could stand watching us play that team for seven straight games, Griffin and Paul are so damn frustrating to watch. Surely it would end with my television being smashed, or at least a hole punched in the wall. On the other hand, Artest may have just taken himself out of the entire first round, so that may be the preferred matchup.
