No way Porltand was going to beat the Nuggets in Denver. It's up to the Bucks to beat them when they go to Milwaukee.

xtothedeezy posted this on the GB. It's an offensive efficiency chart that shows where each team stands in regards to pace and the effectiveness of each possession.

As expected, Doug Collins will not be back with the 6ers next season. He would have been due to earn $4.5M.

Houston beat Sacramento to move into the 6th seed. They are tied with the Warriors, but they own the tiebreaker.

Houston is the team that I would prefer to play. I'm not going to get my hopes up, but it's nice to see things trending in that direction.

Can't imagine the NBA letting the Lakers stay as the 8th seed to play OKC in the first round. Stern has more work to do.

Lets go Bucks

Milwaukee, you can do it!

Question, who would you rather face in the 2nd round if the Clippers are to get there, SA or OKC. 4th means if the Clips win, they get OKC, 3rd means SA. OKC might be the better matchup for the Clippers actually.

Haha when he let the reb go OB? That was bad

Yea, that rebound, but Monta just made it all better, maybe...

Milwaukee disappointed, wow, that was a fun ending though

Damn you Bucks

That's like the Clippers down the stretch. I think the numbers say that LAC is like the 2nd best offensive team down the stretch, but overall like the 18th best team or something because the defense in crunch time is close to last. LOL

Well Denver is getting 57 cause Phoenix sucks. So just gotta win out for the 4th seed, hopefully first round is another win against Memphis, we'll see, and if so, this time it will be OKC in the 2nd round, not SAS.

Btw, Clippers would have won 7 in a row going into the post-season if they win all the rest. Definitely a better situation than the end of last season, but they did beat Memphis last season too.

back from band camp.

feels good.

thanks a lot milwaukee.
i really liked the feel of that 3 seed for us with a possible rematch with SAS in the 2nd round.

time to focus on getting this home court for the Memphis series and getting ready for a damn slobber knocker.

Tmac to the spurs. And he's playoff eligible due to not playing w any other nba team this season. Could be a sneaky good addition to replace sjax
