lmao D'Angelo Russell got benched after averaging 20/3/5 since the break. Someone rescue this kid. Why are the Lakers ****ing with him?
Thanks for that info. They should've clinched tonight, but Jazz got hot in the 2nd half and Clips choked as usual. As much as I think they suck, I think they'll beat the Jazz should they meet in R1, so HCA would solidify it. More than anything, I just think they would challenge the Spurs better and could even knock them out. This is the most ideal playoff scenario as a Rockets fan, with us winning our series of course.
Doubtful. The Thunder have 29 losses. The Clippers are at 27. And LA has a much easier schedule the rest of the way. They'd have to play some truly horrendous basketball to fall behind OKC in the standings.
I'd say it's about a 90% lock the Rockets play either the Thunder or Grizzlies in the first round. I can't see Utah or the Clippers fading that badly. And Denver, despite their improved play, has too big a hole to dig out of.
