Sweet Irony

I think it's gonna be real interesting to watch us play the Clippers this year. Anyone think Mo might have a little revenge factor going for him?

Good point-

I see this team, if a bit more disciplined, as better than the Sonics, no matter hwo many pounds VIn has lost. I put it as good as the Kings also, but I think cracking the top 6 may be very hard this year.

Ohh yeah, I know Mo Taylor wants to go wild on the clippers when they meet. Expect some big boos from the crowd. Maybe some tomatoes on the floor as well.

I think if we stay healthy we can compete for the fourth slot. I'll be suprised if the Jazz play up to their customary level of basketball. I also think the Suns are going to waver a bit this season. I could be wrong, of course, but that's the way I see it. And, who knows, a couple of timely injuries to teams like SA or LA.....

Playoff reality (barring major injuries):

Tier 1: Faker$, FailBlazers, Spurs

Tier 2: T-Wolves, Suns

Tier 2.5: Jazz (no Hornacek)

Tier 3: Kings, Sonics, Mavs, and Rockets

Tier 3.5: Nuggets (they do have McDyess and Van X & are capable of getting on a roll)


Tier 3 will be a highly contested battle for playoff spots 7 & 8. (Rocks & Mavs?).

Good trivia question - when was the last time ALL 3 Texas teams made the playoffs in the same year?

I'm not a jazz fan or anything, but i think you guys are jumping way ahead and condemning those guys to lose, when we all know they are going to be third or fourth once again this year. they lost hornacek, but they gained stevenson, starks, marshall, and manning. starks is by himself better then hornacek. we are definitly not going to be ahead of these guys in the playoffs. the teams that made it last year that might not make it are kings and sonics. both have bonifide superstars in webber and payton, so it's definitly not going to be easy for us to squeze in, especially with the mavs and their crazy owner. we're definitly going to be in a battle for one of those last two spots. it's going to be an exciting year.

I think we might be able to outplay Sacramento for the eigth spot and if Hakeem is healthy and is a big contributor, I could see us sitting at the sixth spot at most. No doubt we will eventually climb past the Jazz, next year probably when Stockton retires.
