Yup, Wiz win by 12. Nene takes out Green with a nice forearm uppercut.

Well this sucks but Durant will rest tonight at Detroit. The only good thing is that OKC is rolling, both Ibaka & Waiters are playing good ball again, and most of all Westbrook gets to take over. As good as his triple doubles are, I still think both he and OKC would be even more dangerous if he tried to score 40 again every game. Oh yeah, and Detroit's defense is awful

Indiana and Chicago are not good teams...

Post #1466 » by **pineappleheadindc** » Wed Mar 30, 2016 1:18 am

Looks like Chicago and Detroit will win.

Chicago b/c Indy just can't play well vs them. Detroit b/c Durant is pulling a Duncan and just chilling.

Sucks for our team, though.

Houston vs Cleveland. Boy, I really dislike both teams. Just add the Clippers to the court, then nuke them all.

Detroit is making it a game

Although I would have liked Harden if he were on the Wizards

Oh well, Detroit wins

Puts us 3 games back (Indy has the tie breaker) with 9 to play. Hoping it isn't 3 1/2 back with 8 to play.

(Too Much, Too Little, Too Late for the Wizards).

And the GSW game hasn't started well... sigh

Didn't anyone notice that the Bulls Starters +/-???? The starter were almost all negative but the bench killed the pacers! We don't have a bench that can do that ...ever

Russell westbrook deserves mvp as much as curry...

Westbrook is having a great season, and would be an MVP candidate almost any year, but Curry is having a phenomenal year. When I did my piece about Wall and the relative quality of his "supporting cast," I found that Curry led the league in total production, per minute production, and production share (percentage of his team's production). Kawhi Leonard was 2nd in total production and per minute production; Westbrook was 2nd in production share.

Curry, by the way, was 2nd in the gap between the performance of a team's top performer and his team's 2nd best. Top of that list was Anthony Davis. Curry has probably moved past Davis with the injury. Westbrook was 21st on the list -- not surprising considering Kevin Durant.

All three of these guys are having a season for the ages. Curry is so good, though that Leonard and Westbrook are almost footnotes.

How many minutes have curry played without green this season....not normally relevant but put that in perspective

Indy has already lost tonight.

Chicago has come from way behind to lead the Rockets (in Houston) by 6 with 1:30 left. Houston had this game in hand, but thus far in the 4th quarter, Chicago has outscored Houston 26-11. SMH.

Are we still tracking other teams re: the playoffs?

It's over...

Yup. It was probably over after the loss to Minnesota, but the Sacramento game clinched it. What an embarrassing performance down the stretch. The Wizards lost 9 of their last 15 while in the midst of a do-or-die playoff run.

On this we agree!
