    We could very well find ourselves in 1st in the division by the end of the night tomorrow. Not sure what that means for the long term tho. Lots of injuries pending and a rough schedule ahead.

    It has to be a reverse jinx, DD is notorious for being wrong on everything, from Spanoulis to Smoove. That he does not think it possible is a good thing.

    I would be surprised if we won the division. We may either tie them or finish like 1 game behind them. Which really sucks because the game the refs handed to Memphis could really cost us.

    it would be nice, but as long as we're back in full strength by the time playoffs come, ill be happy.

    Getting out of the first round this year is way more important than winning the division.

    People, stop saying we will be 2nd by tonight, we are 2-2 against them and their division and conference record is better so we need them to lose one more.

    We'd be a half game up with one fewer loss I dont see a problem with saying we're in second

    They're 50-23. We're 49-23. If we beat the Wizards and they lose at San Antonio today, we'll be 50-23 and they'll be 50-24. That's good for 2nd place. And the Rockets would officially control their own destiny at that point as far as the division and the 2nd seed are concerned.

    No Memphis is ahead of us now. There is no "Tied". We just need to lose one fewer game in the last 9 games. Start from Memphis lost tonite ;)
