Good thing is that we can watch Houston @ Dallas before this one. Man, I hope Nene comes to play tonight. The last two games he hasn't done anything. No defense, no toughness, and little scoring.

This is going to be a good game. Speaking as a Blazer fan, I wish you guys nothing but horrible luck (aside from injuries) and the worst calls against you imaginable for this game.

In all seriousness I was really looking forward to this being a battle for the division, but it's still going to be a hard fought game by both teams depending on how the Spurs and Houston do. Should be fun to watch.

I would like to see the Nuggets win this thing and end the season all alone in the 2nd spot. I hope the Nuggets want the same thing.

I dont care who we play... we're guaranteed Hornets and Mavs whom I like.

Let's get #2!!

What do you say we let the Mav's and Hornets take care of business tonight and then have the scrubs from both our teams take the floor for tipoff? I'd be okay with that!

Really? Not me.

Ideally, San Antonio beats NO, and Dallas beats Houston. We get #2, we get NO, and we're guaranteed to avoid Houston and the Lakers until the WCF.

How would you play two teams in the conference finals?? The game is usually played 5 on 5.
You will likely need to play Houston in the second round, and tonight you are playing for the HCA for that round.

Nuggets don't have a chance though. Nor they deserve to be in second, that's Houston's spot.

You're not too smart, huh?

As long as Dallas takes care of business, I'm happy. At that point, I really won't care if we win our game tonight or not, as long as one of San Antonio or Portland wins. That way we avoid playing Houston in the second round.

He's a Blazer fan, give him a break. You shouldn't really expect much.

MHZ is saying that if that scenario were to play out the Rockets and Lakers would play in the second round, thus both teams would be avoided till the conference finals. Not too difficult to understand.
