Suns down by 10 at near the end of the 1st.

Sure there is, but you don't want to be chasing the 3rd seed in the last week. I rather get it early and fight to hold onto it.

it'd be better for us to stay within the 5th seed rather than go higher if we want to be strategic...its easy for us to beat the winners of the northwest division...i want to see portland to secure that spot because having no experience in the playoff they might collapse

Here goes nothing....we can use this as a springboard for our hot streak!

First mistake underestimating any team. Why go with the lower seed when we can possibly face some one like the warriors first round while having home court?

^^^^warriors could possibly end up falling out of the playoff picture and houston or utah might able to occupy it..im more afraid for us to face those two...

They way the Lakers are playing the only team that concerns me is a healthy Spurs team. Bring anybody else on homecourt advantage or not.

we're going to win the west, i really think so.

Yeah Sun's lost tonight

No way. The Golden State Warriors are going back to the playoffs this season. You can count on it. There's no way they can go cold long enough to miss the playoffs this seasons. It'll take serious injuries to derail that train.

1. San Antonio Spurs
2. Phoenix Suns
3. Utah Jazz
4. Dallas Mavericks
5. Los Angeles Lakers
6. Denver Nuggets
6. New Orleans Hornets
6. Houston Rockets
7. Portland Trail Blazers
7. Golden State Warriors

The entire Conference is up for grabs this season. I wouldn't rule out a Top 3 seed for us.

we better finish 3rd and hope portland finishes 6th so we can get pass the first round.

Sorry, how are we the 3rd seed?

If Phoenix loses tonight, they'll be 25 and 11. The Lakers stand at 23 and 11.

Spurs lost earlier tonight so we have the same record.

Not sure why we're the third seed tho cause the Spurs beat us...

What am I forgetting?

i thought they did the tie breakers by looking at your conference record...

The thing besides the record that I'm really impressed by is that we have the highest margin of victory in the West at 6.8.

That's about a point higher than the Suns.

We're not just squeaking by teams anymore...we're punishing them.
