3 point game at half. A Portland win would really give the Jazz some life to get the 2-3 seed.

Damn, no help from other teams lately. Hopefully the Spurs don't let us down.

Ok... season finale most probably will be HCA tie breaker with Suns...
Of course, Jazz MUST win @Warriors to avoid to open a window for the Thunder to claim the fifth spot... Jazz still can end up facing a first round @Nuggets...

Dallas losing to Sacramento and Denver losing to San Antonio tonight would be big for us.

We all have to be huge San Antonio fans. A lot of our fate rests in their hands. Denver tonight, Dallas to end the season.

I'd be satisfied with a W tonight.

I'm not worried about the Mavs. If they get the 2nd seed, so be it. I just want to finish ahead of Denver and grab that third spot. I'd feel okay about taking on Dallas in the second round without home court. Obviously the Jazz would be underdogs - but they'd stand a helluva better chance against them than the Lakers.

So go Spurs!

K-Mart returning tonight for the Nuggets which should help, he's a good defender against Duncan. Lets hope he's rusty.

The Nuggets really haven't been playing well, 5-5 in their last 10 and one of their wins was by 2 points over the Lakers with out Kobe. The Spurs are up and down. Beating Orlando and LA last week, and losing to Memphis at home last night. Hopefully they have a bounce back game tonight and kick some ass. Last night was a costly loss for them so you better believe they'll be playing their hardest tonight. They sit in 8th and you better believe they don't want any part of the Lakers in the first round either.

GO TIMMY!!!!!

Jazz gonna be tied with Denver, both teams will have 1 game they should win (Den vs Memphis, Jazz @ Golden State) and both teams then face Phoenix though the Jazz do so at home.

Finally, I was so pissed off on Friday because of the Nuggets win, I hope their **** fans feel the same way when we take the division title! Hopefully the Spurs can pull another one off in Dallas too!

Gotta beat the Warriors Tuesday. I think Denver shat the bed and will now be in a very tough situation entering their game against the Suns.

The Suns are 2-1 against Denver this year, and have played them really well since the start of the new year. Both times they've played them since Jan 1 they've won by double digits. Would love a repeat of that, the Jazz to win in Golden State and to have a huge Wednesday night in Utah against the Suns. That game would be epic.

I am with ya, guys. I would love to see the #4 Nuggets face the #5 Suns in the 1st round and the winner go on to play the winner of the 1/8 (I think Spurs and Blazers both have the ability to knock off the lakers).
