    if rox want to have home court advantage against Utah in the first round in playoff, we need to have more wins than Utah. And the next two games for both teams are decisive.

    Tonight if Jazz lose to Spurs, and we beat lakers, which are very possible.
    Most importantly, if we can beat Jazz on April 1st,
    then we are very likely to gain home court advantage in the playoff.

    If we missed our chance this time, i don't see we can catch up with Utah in the remaining season. Our last three games are extremely tough, hornets, suns and jazz (at their house). For some reason, we have problem play against Hornets.

    Plus our last regular season game will be in Utah, and we have at least 10 more games...so these next 2 games will not decide Home court but will give a good indication...

    the suns game should be a W... i know we have trouble with them, but the coach with 3 first names is going to rest his players unlike JVG :eek:


    even avery does this:

    "I like to err on the side of caution,'' Johnson told the Dallas Morning News. "There were some situations last year when guys could have come back a game or two sooner, but I held them out. If I see any sort of danger -- any type of danger -- the guy's not going to play.

    "At the end of the day, I want to have this team mentally and physically ready for the playoffs. And I thought we did a pretty good job of that last year.''

    suns still can drop to 3rd postion though, so who knows if they will send their best players on that day?

    utah apparently has a tougher schedule than us. But it looks like they have no problems playing against elite teams.. :confused:
