    Guess OKC wants to get knocked out by us. Fine by me.

    Portland reserved course and said Dame is available tonight, Stotts didn’t say he would play but he’s not sitting out.

    That’d require us holding onto a lead against them

    OKC is not a good matchup for us. They took the season series 3-1. Losing to them in the first round would melt down ClutchFans to the ground. I have wanted to "start out" with the Jazz for weeks, still do.

    So OKC wins and clinched the 6th seed. Will Portland tank tonight to avoid OKC?

    Nuggets also have incentive to tank. They swept the thunder but split against the spurs.

    Thunder and Nuggets games are played at the same time. It will be interesting to see who can out tank the other team.;)

    Yea, you gotta give Wiggins a raise for him to drop 30 or 40 on a nuggets team. Lol that whole team is soft as tissue.

    Well some people on this board will get their wish and have OKC for first round, since OKC is not a threat to the Rockets to people on here lol.

    I think it's a given, they obviously want the Jazz over OKC, and i think the Jazz will lose to the Clippers to send the Spurs against the Warriors. Denver will win and get the Clippers for an easy 1st round, they'll eventually get us but we'll be probably way more tired than them in the 2nd round.

    EDIT: i ****ed up sorry, Clippers are already last.
