    I just hope OKC doesn't slip to 8th. It's possible with their schedule, which is the hardest of them all. 7th would be perfect.

    Minnesota is going to start moving up with an easy schedule ahead as OKC starts sliding down. Three great games this weekend, with Utah and Spurs Fri, Rockets and Pelicans Sat., and Portland and PKC Sunday!

    I would really be surprised if that happens. Utah and Minnesota have the easiest schedules left. I think they will move up.

    Nice job. That’s crazy good

    I was mesmerized by Dallas hugging the bottom spots

    You are the best!

    Key is to focus on one team and see how they move. Otherwise it's too much going on.

    That's certainly possible, although Utah and Minnesota have easier schedules left, which might keep San Antonio behind them.

    I hope you keep this going. It's really going to shuffle up this month. Lots of fun to watch!

    I just hope Utah moves up (or down). The way they've been playing, it would be a terrible "reward" for this season for us to get them in the first round.

    ... I doubt we will, though. And if we do, it will probably probably mean they cooled off significantly.

    imo our most favored matchups would be in this order:

    DEN
    MIN
    UTA
    NOP
    POR
    OKC
    SAS
    LAC

    i doubt any of these teams wins more than 1 game against us. this is more the order of likelihood for causing injury before we get to the 3rd round.

    Even though we had some issues with Clippers this season, they should be between Pels and Por. POR, OKC, SAS at the end possibly with UTA as well.

    My list:

    DEN
    MIN
    UTA
    NOP
    LAC
    POR
    SAS
    OKC

    The cupcake stretch for the Jazz is over. Most of their remaining opponents are playoff teams and they just lost to Atlanta at home.

    Actually, not all their cupcake games are over. They still have a couple easy games left with Dallas and Memphis, and also play the Lakers twice.

    They climb to about 11th. Probably when Cuban told them to knock it off. Lol.
