UTA-SAS could be good.

Portland-Boston would be good but Celtics are too banged up for it to be too interesting.

Heat-Thunder could be a good one.

Clippers - Pacers could be a good one.

That's my take as well. I'd add Nuggets Wizards as well. That one has playoff implications too.

As long as he's wearing the proper ankle braces he'll be fine.

With Curry back the Warriors still have a chance to keep the second best overall record in the NBA.

Almost identical record as well he Raptors.

Do you guys think the Cavs/Suns game today will be a larger margin of defeat than yestersay’s Grizzlies/Hornets game?

What makes you say that? What information do you have on Steph's ankle situation that hasn't been reported so far?

The past 2 weeks or so for the Warriors has made me realise just how much I love Steph Curry on the Warriors. So much so, that I'm literally frightened of the day that he may retire and we go back to the days of Speedy Claxton, Todd Fuller, Chris Mills and Sprewell choking coaches.

Cloning can't come soon enough.

Just my opinion at this point Houston has first wrapped up why not just get some rest?

Well with Toronto nipping on the heels of 2nd place, meaning home court if they both make the finals, there's incentive to play the top guys. Also, you don't want to go into the playoffs underdone, so the guys would want to get in a serious rhythm and get that winning vibe back in the ball club.

I see no reason to hold the guys out if they are healthy.

It's official for me. Jokic is to good of an offensive player to add self creators like Millsap to the team. Suround him with the best 3 and D players and there you have it. Now it seems like its compromise playing rather than optimal playing for the Nuggets.

It was a risk worth taking imo but I think your right.
