Playoff Picture: - as of tuesday morning
8th seed (tied with golden state, but own the tiebreaker)
2 games behind dallas for the 7th seed

Crunch time. Clippers have spoiled the playoff hopes once.

Need to simply remember that no matter how many times Clippers have lost since then.

Go Nuggets!!!

Kaman, Thomas and Maggette are all out for Clippers this game.
But you know, Nuggets will lose this one too.

I was gonna go to this game but I dont think I will waste my time.

I know the Nuggets will come out and respond. GO NUGGETS! WE BELIEVE!

They only play one rookie that has to be a plus for us. The clippers always give us a game but I think we will see the Nuggets playing with a sense of purpose in this one.

i feel like the sonics will lose intentionally tonight without giving the mavs a real fight because they said the wanted to destroy our season or something like this two days ago. it sounds pretty strange but, who know what will happen.

hopefully we'll still make the playoffs... i still believe we can beat the hornets in a 7-game series!

GO NUGGETS!!! btw. GO DEFENSE!!!

please god let us win this one tonight.....

.... and lets go sac!

Al Thorton will score abot 45... :/

I have a very bad feeling about this one...

we'll win. if we won't win our season is over we can't afford to lose against another losing record team.

I have a feeling the Nuggets will win and GS lose.

I wish I had that same feeling, and I hope that feeling of yours becomes a reality. The Warriors play 4 of their last 5 at home. The favorable schedule that we did have has quickly turned into them having the advantage.

Win or go home!

Nuggs will win

all we can do is win now, and hope the rest falls in place to our advantage

i'm scared of powell. he turned into an really impressive big man since kaman is injured. he averages 10.3 ppg and 11.3 rpg (under 30 mpg) in the 3 games without chris!

but like i said. we'll win this!

Let's just say we better to win this game if we don't it's over for us! If we somehow lose to 3 scrubby teams in a row this season was a utter failure and a complete waste of our time!

I hope they win this one, but if they lose i wouldn't be surprised.

I think GS will win tonight.
