    I can't decide if I want Portland or Denver to win tonight...probably Portland so if we win we might get the 2nd seed.

    The Rockets are such a formidable team without a head coach!

    If you are fine hitting GSW sooner rather than later (like me), then all outcomes are good.

    Are Gerald Green and Faried bench players now?

    This past week has been fun. That OKC game is going to be tough. So hopefully, it continues.

    They have 2 Assistant head coaches in Bzdelik and the 3 headed MDA.

    That also means Utah in the first round. No. Not all outcomes are good.

    lulz...you're scared of Utah?? Utah can't beat us, and they are actually soft.

    What, you want #2 and OKC first round?

    Best way to beat GSW is to face them as early as possible. But, as I say, all outcomes are good. 2nd seed is best for Harden's MVP chances, though.

    I was wondering the same thing. I hate leaving Faried on the Bench. I feel we're going to hurt his confidence and we need him in the playoffs.

    So I check nba.com for score and I see the stat for us getting 27 3s. Then scroll down and see Giannis 30 pts 9reb.

    Usually you base those stats as the best stats on that game. Or that’s how I see it. I’m like mm I thought harden almost had a triple double in 3 quarters (I blame Nene for missing that dunk smh) :p
    Anyway I check and indeed harden had 13 rebounds and 9 assists. Then I check espn and all I see is a pic of Giannis in the front. Oh well. No headlines yet but I’m sure tomorrow everyone will bring up Giannis stats and just bring up the rockets to talk about how many 3s we attempt.

    Yea I know I dont know who to root for to win.
    But at the end I decided is better for us to get 2seed and it won’t matter who we play in the 1st round we will win. 2 round will be against Denver and we have their number ;). And the western finals I’m excited coz we have a bench and people that can help and bring a spark

    Utah has been hot. Of course I think we can beat them. But it’ll be a tough out. More wear and tear.

    Us becoming 2nd means we beat OKC which most likely pushes them to 8th seed.

    Utah is soft.

    And no matter how you slice it...the "more wear and tear" argument is why you'd want GSW earlier, than later. GSW has proven over 4 years that they can withstand the long grind, if not get better the longer they play. Rockets are the opposite of that.

    Plus, LAC is going to lose tonight, and play Utah next. They could end up #8.
