    the rockets are far better than the spurs this year... with that being said playing a spurs team with nothing to lose could stretch the series out beyond 5 games. All of the pressure would be on the Rockets.. I still think the Rockets beat the Spurs in 5

    I screwed up who we play. Here are the fixed odds.

    Minn win (65%) and NO win (53%) we play Minn = 34.45%
    Minn win (65%) and SA win (47%) we play NO = 30.55%
    Denver win (35%) and NO win (53%) we play SA = 18.55%
    Denver win (35%) and SA win (47%) we play NO = 16.45%

    47% chance we play NO, 34.45% Minn and 18.55% SA.

    Thunder are 8th seed if they lose to Grizz, The reasons are

    The current No. 7, Oklahoma City (47-34), cannot finish seventh because of tiebreakers. If the Thunder loses to Memphis on Wednesday, it would fall into a tie with the winner of the Minnesota-Denver game and lose the tiebreaker to the Timberwolves or the Nuggets and be seeded eighth. If the Thunder beats Memphis, the loser of the New Orleans-San Antonio game would drop to seventh and Oklahoma City would be fifth or sixth.

    maybe they lose, i have noticed while watching the thunder. it seems like Westbrook is statpadding. it was pretty blatant against Miami. When Westbrook stopped stat padding they went on a monster run vs Miami.
    he got the majority of his rebounds before the 4th qtr. so their is a chance okc loses

    Warriors are better off if they lose tonight's game to Jazz.

    Warriors have no chance to play Thunder and Jazz in the first round.

    Twolves beat the Warriors in their last matchup, they can absolutely give them trouble in the first round. This is not the same Warriors team

    Guess they're going to tank tonight in order to dominate the Rockets in the 1st round. Not sure if OKC or SA is worse.

    It’s looking like we will get Minny based on current scores. Minny and NOLA winning.

    POR 3 vs NOLA 6
    OKC 4 vs Utah 5

    If Utah wins:
    Utah 3 vs OKC 6
    Por 4 vs NOLA 5

    Two scenarios left!

    Scenario #2:
    POR beats UTH, NO beats SA, MIN beats DEN
    Yields: (3) POR - (4) OKC - (5) UTH - (6) NO - (7) SA - (8) MIN

    Scenario #6:
    UTH beats POR, NO beats SA, MIN beats DEN
    Yields: (3) UTH - (4) POR - (5) NO - (6) OKC - (7) SA - (8) MIN

    Before the season started, who would have thought the Spurs would play the Warriors in the FIRST ROUND?
