This might be the year of the ended playoff streak. Spurs are currently the 10th seed out West.



Just imagine the Spurs winning the lotto...

^That would be glorious, and awful at the same time.

But the thought of [SAS] getting a lottery talent at all should terrify the league.

They turned #15 into the best 2-way player in the league.
What might they get at #14 in a loaded draft?

It's only one game, but that's a helluva line. Could BJ have found his niche off the bench -- just in time to salvage his career?

I predict that the Nets, Magic, Hawks, Kings, Suns, Grizzilies, Mavs will not win another game other than playing each other.

Nets have no reason to lose. They are trying to win games.

That's the scary part. How bad do you have to be to have 21 wins when you are actually trying.

Oh man. What a horrible prediction. So bad no one should even read the next post in that thread.

The Nets had a ton of injuries this year though. I think they were an 8th seed without all the injuries

The Nets young trio of Russell, Hollis-Jefferson, and LeVert have played just 16 games together. In those games, the team is 7-9.


7-9 may not sound great but 7 is a third of their wins.

Pretty sure the Curry brothers have to be up there. Sure Steph accounted for 49 of the points but Seth must have done his part.

They even made history on the night, by becoming the first set of brothers to score at least 51 points combined in a single game, since Dominique and Gerald Wilkins reached the feat back in March of 1994


I'm a genius. Please bow.

Haha, Dennis with the savagery. "That's like 4 games per year, bro."

Dwight is still a petulant child.
