I voted OTHER. Now that we have made the Playoffs, the milestone I want to reach is to make the 2nd round.

I was going to put "win a playoff series" as an option but knew that it would win in a landslide so went with the other more even options.

I would definitely like to aim higher than these. A playoff series is pretty unlikely, but at least we could win a game.

For me it's beat the Mavs.

As if we have been in the NBA for 6 years and we are still yet to beat them once!

I think you are missing the point of the options.

For example, I would have "Have a 1st round pick pan out" (except that we only have 2 remaining 1st round picks left on the roster these days!!) listed before I would have "win a playoff game" or "win a playoff series" listed.

If it's just things you picked to put in a poll, why did you include an "other" slot?

We will this season. It has been deemed so by the Basketball Gods. Or so say my "sources".

in the honor of fat lever i had to choose the "triple double" option, even though its the most shallow, un-team worthy achievement of the bunch. haha.

I foolishly hoped people would see the qirkiness of the other options and follow suit with equally quriky options of their own?

I picked trip dub. I really don't understand how that hasn't happened yet (personally, I blame Steve Martin). Almost picked other for "draft a starter", but that won't be happening this season.

I had a dream earlier this week where we were playing the Wizards and Augustin almost had a triple-double by halftime (with blocks......) and I posted something here prematurely about it and BigSlam censored me. We were beating the Wizards like 36-1 at one point, and Walter Herrman, playing for the Wizards, did that dunk where you stick your arm in the rim and hang, and then I like transported into the game and started yelling at him for trying to be Vince Carter when he team was down 30 points, but he pretended like he didn't speak English. By the end of the game, Augustin was close to a quadruple-double.

Just an FYI.
