    One game at a time. This round, the next round, the next round, the next round until the whole thing is over..

    You should stop watching sports. Or participate in them for that matter.

    Whatever you do, don't get too siked up. :D

    If I were you, I'd start rooting for the Blazers. That way you won't get your hopes up at all.

    There isn't a rating worse than "terrible?" Clutch needs to work on that. There should be a negative rating below terrible. This thread is a perfect example of why the GARM cries out for such a change.

    No, with all due respect, you are posting like you're 14 years old.

    YOU SHOULD'VE GIVEN UP MUCH EARLIER WHEN WE LOST TO PHILLY OR CHICAGO OR ETC...IF YOU CAN'T SEE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE 82ND GAME OF AN 82 GAME SEASON AND A PLAYOFF GAME THEN THERE'S NO HOPE FOR YOU.

    Clearly this dude's a troll. Permaban.

    Watch, we'll lose the next game and all hell is going to break lose. We are going to look at a first round exit. Lol. Why get ahead of yourselves? Take it one game at a time and enjoy.

    I may be completely wrong, but don't we play whoever wins in the Nuggets/Hornets series in round 2?

    Yeah, because the 82nd game after already clinching a playoff spot is the same thing as a playoff game with the season on the line

    Nope. From what I understand, we would face the winner of the Jazz-Lakers series.

    The point is you don't give up after the regular season when you make the playoffs. Otherwise should the NBA should call the whole thing off and go straight to the Lakers/Cavs series?

    I'm guessing you've never participated in anything competitive in your life. Or you've lost at every single thing you've attempted because you give up too easily.

    This board is filled with so much negativity its palpable.

    We can beat any team in the league once we figure out how to adjust to the fronting defense and you can take that to the bank!
