    It's funny. Some Dallas fans are rooting for their team to lose the next game against us just to screw the Lakers who will be playing Oklahoma next.

    Hope they get their wish. :grin:

    i would prefer to face OKC 1st, Clippers 2nd, SAS 3rd. san antonio is our worst match up IMO, there offence would shred our defense.

    They must still be bitter about Lamar Odom. And Derek Fisher.

    It's going to come down to the last week of the season.. I thin either jazz or lakers r out the of playoffs

    Warriors have lot of home games left and of course I really do believe the rockets are a good playoff team

    I generally agree with your points, but the Lakers in the playoffs is just more exciting overall. Who wouldn't want to watch a potential Clippers-Lakers series?

    True. Clippers and Spurs just has too many scoring options, while OKC is too dependent on Durant and Westbrook. You lock Durant and Westbrook down and you have a very good chance. Though if I have to put money on anything, I'd shoot for Clippers. It's easier to clamp on a small guard then a lengthier Westbrook or a 6-10 PF like Durant.:grin:

    I meant as one of the bottom seeded teams (us, gsw, utah, and lakers) that could beat a top seeded team (okc, sa, and clips)

    I dont necessarily "want" them to succeed but i believe that with their team, despite all the turmoil, could beat a top seeded team. La fans dont really bother me anyways cause thats how "casual" fans are. they dont really like the lakers, they just like em cause everyone else does. i try to separate true fans, of any team, from bandwagon fans cause i believe that true fans deserve some respect regardless of the team they follow

    Jazz seem to have the most difficult scheduled down the stretch where the Rox seem to have the easiest :cool:

    The 7 game losing streak and keeping our pick was the fun part for me.

    Yeah I can't stand L.A neither, I rather see the Jazz in the playoffs too. Nothing more can make happy seeing the Lakers not in the playoffs and going for that 14 pick!:grin::grin::grin:

    grizzlies would be an interesting matchup..

    we would force ZBo and Gasol to play waaay away from their strengths...

    Remember they pretty much throw in the towel after 3rd quarter?

    Lakers are making the playoffs...too much tv money they lose if lakers don't make playoffs

    Jazz might be the team out of the playoffs

    Well, ill start with what I want (within reason)

    6) Houston
    7) GSW
    8) Jazz

    I want the Lakers to go beyond disappointment. They deserve more after all :grin: Humiliation! Thats the ticket. Best team in LA, NOT!!!!. Best team in their division, NOT!!!!. Playoff team, NOT!!!!. Lottery team, YES!!!!!!

    Now that ive got that off my chest, what will probably happen?

    6) GSW
    7) Houston
    8) Lakers

    I think it is important that the Lakers do not make the playoffs. They could really go off and advance.
