    What I wouldn't give for a "simulate game" button. Ready for the regular season to be over.

    If Utah wins their last 2 and New Orleans wins tonight, OKC can finish no better than 6th.

    If Utah doesn't win both, and OKC beats Memphis, OKC will finish 4th or 5th

    If Utah does win both and New Orleans loses tonight, OKC can still finish 6th if the Spurs beat New Orleans Wednesday. Otherwise, if the Pels beat the Spurs, OKC would finish 5th.

    Only way they can finish below 6th is if they lose to Memphis on Wednesday. They will finish 8th if they lose Wednesday, New Orleans wins tonight, and Denver wins tonight.

    OKC can only finish 7th if New Orleans loses tonight and Wednesday, Denver wins tonight, and OKC loses Wednesday
    or
    New Orleans wins tonight, Denver loses tonight, but wins Wednesday

    OKC can also finish 6th if they lose to Memphis Wednesday, New Orleans loses tonight and Wednesday, and Denver loses tonight, but wins Wednesday

    If the spurs lose to the pelicans they are either 7 or 8 depending on the other outcomes

    Refs, that is not Blazers ball. They spent all that time looking at the replay yet still managed to miss the call.

    i am. my ideal round 1 opponent.

    WEDNESDAY:
    portland loss means blazers/jazz final game of the year is for the 3rd seed. even if the jazz lose tomorrow night too (i think)

    pels/spurs is gonna be meaningful as well for seeding

    nuggets/wolves for a playoff bid

    Wednesday night is going to be lit. Wolves vs Nuggets for a playoff spot, Jazz vs Blazers for home-court, Spurs vs Pellies for home-court

    ooh wee

    WOW WOW WOW

    if someone told me Utah would be #3 seed in the West back in January, I would have called da Police on you for being high on crack or meth or h or bath salt or whatever kids smoke today.

    OKC #6 seed because we can't beat them and Heats can't beat them. Damn it, we could have put them in #7 seeds if we beat them Saturaday.

    Hope TWolves lose Wednesday

    Yea. Jazz have T breaker. 2-0 against Blazers.

    They will win against the Worriers and be locked in #3 seeds.

    And everyone thought Portland was locked at #3 just last week

    NBA, it's FANTASTIC!!
