    Here's what Stevie said after the Hornets game:

    "We didn't take advantage of our opportunities. I feel we have a good team. The sky's the limit for us. I believe we can make the playoffs."

    WOW!!! What did he say??? [​IMG]

    still a possibility.
    28 games left. 12 wins to catch up to .500 would be
    1. denver @home
    2. clips on road
    3. sac@home
    4. Nets@home
    5. Min@home
    6. NY on road
    7. cavs on road
    8. Clips@home
    9. bulls@home
    10.gsw@home
    11.hawks@home
    12.griz on road
    then there are 16 more games and if we lose 8 or less , possible playoff picture.
    Most likely will lose these 8 (hope not [​IMG])
    1. @lakers
    2. @jazz but any one of these wins is
    3. @pacers a big plus
    4. @raptors
    5. @twolves
    6. @blazers
    7. @sonics
    8. @suns
    that leaves 8 that we should take in my opinion.
    1. sun
    2. @bucks
    3. @magic
    4. jazz (yes!)
    5. @nuggets
    6. mavs
    7. sonics
    8. grizzlies(with CB4 in da house!)
    No Problem, as long as the team keeps playing like they are while getting gradually better.
    I'm sure nobody on this board disagrees either [​IMG]

    No playoffs this year folks. Sorry!
    We are chasing a hot Dallas team, then Denver, then Minnesota who has slumped lately. We are currently 9 games out of the eighth spot. Finally we are getting some players back from injury, but I am not very hopeful of our chances. I would love it, but it is not likely.

    well I actually don't think it's likely either , I was giving a scenerio in which it could happen. I wonder what Vegas odds are for Houston to make the playoffs, probably 25 to 1. I'd bet 50 bucks on that!

    Well, I would definitely bet on Houston before Dallas or even Denver. I see your 50 and raise you 50!
