    Denver is playing (at home) the Celtics tonight. Not even a bit of charity from me to Boston but I hope they win. Denver has lost its last two (on the road) and I hope it ends up being a three game winning streak. They are taking up too much space on the homecourt advantage top four and speaking on behalf of a couple Houstonian's "this court isn't big enough for the both of us".

    So hard to explain but easy to understand, I wont be cheering Boston but I sure as hell hope they win.

    Also would like to see that almost brand new team Kings beat the Hornets and Hawks take out the Jazz but then again who doesnt ever want to see the Jazz lose despite who they are playing?

    So....you want Denver to go on a 3 game winning streak? Doesn't help the Rockets any.

    Today's loss will be 3 in a row. They better beat Atlanta because the Lakers are next. The Nugs could lose 9 in a row if they aren't careful.

    The Cs are pounding the nuggets, even without KG.

    jeez are the nuggets missing anyone else other then Nene?? Thats hardcore spanking.

    jazz and hornets, meh.

    can we get a whoop whoop for the Thunder tonight, hah hah, yeah yeah I know I'm dreaming.

    So heres the question. I know some of ya cant stand the Ponies. Then some of ya cant stand the the Spurs. So who do you hope wins tonight? I dont like Bowen and a loss here would hurt them so ofcourse I'd go for Barea's team.

    You know what would be funny? If the Bobcats beat the Suns as bad as we beat the Bobcats the other night. Would you laugh at or pity at the fool?

    Portland vs Spurs

    who should we be hoping to win this game. Its almost a even event with either or losing. Portland loses and we get a game ahead of them. They win and we are even Steven and now a tid bit closer to the Spurs. Which is more important?

    Other then that cheer for the Bucks (Ponies), Timberwolves (Jazz), Detroit (NOH) and Hawks (Nuggets).

    It's more important to get closer to the Spurs. The Blazers are eventually going to fall off, I mean how far can Roy lead them without a halfway decent Oden? Anywho, the Spurs are within striking distance, and I would like to see the gap close, even if it involves the Blazers being tied with us.

    With Denver and Spurs playing a strong team today good chance of both of them losing.

    Denver vs Laker's
    Spurs vs Cav's

    If Denver loses we will be a half game behind them (correct?)

    And if Spurs lose will that be 2 or 2 and half games behind? Not entirely sure but it means we will be closer with our chemistry only getting better, this could be a good sign of turning around.

    Lakers have been hot, they killed Phoenix like taking candy from a baby. Honestly I hope the Lakers can win at least all their upcoming games against the West coast unless its us. We wont be able to catch up and they got the 1st round regardless so might as well root for them against everyone else as long as they dont beat our 22 win streak or us!

    Hopefully Cleveland takes their loss out from us on the Spurs. Would be nice!

    Of course there are a couple other WC teams playing but I doubt they will lose based on the opponent.

    Unless LeBron is hurt, the Cavs will definitely beat the Spurs and, based on recent play, the Nuggets shouldn't have any chance against the Lakers.

    it's possible since nuggs are at home. but lakers barely played last night. they must be feeling good about their game the way they ravaged phoenix. without nene (i think he's still out), the lakers bigs will take over this game and it'll be a denver loss i think

    arent the lakers already resting their stars in the fourth prepping for the post season?

    thought i heard that last night during the game but if so they might be rested up for tonight anywho.

    Mark Jackson said that Battier and Artest aren't that good defensively.

    That was pretty much verbatim too, I'm not exaggerating.
