    Itsmyfault/blametracy gave me permission to make this so don't flame me!

    Only one game but a good one. I think we benefit more with Utah winning since it'd drop Denver in the loss column to 27. But I refuse to root for Utah so I won't be going for anyone.

    Agreed... Utah HAS to win this... Because we lost tonight, Utah definitely has to win this, I can't believe I'm saying this .. but Go .... no, I'm not going to say it.

    I root for Denver as I want Utah to slip to 8th and face the Lakers.

    I don't care about our seeding as long as we have home-court advantage.

    I will never hope that a team coached by jerry sloan will win. EVER. Lose and go down to the 8th spot already. ****ING FLOPPERS!

    I'm fine with the Nuggets getting the 2 spot if we can get the 3. I think the Jazz will finish in the 7 spot and I would be confident with us beating the Nuggets on the road.

    I think fans of all Western Conference teams except the Jazz (duh!) and Lakers (who don't care) want the Jazz to get the 8th seed. I'll be pretty disappointed if the Nuggets don't thump them pretty good tonight. It may take until the 3rd quarter, but I expect this game to break open at some point. If your team comes out smokin' like the Blazers did and beats 'em down from the start, that'll work too.

    It would be logical to want the Jazz to take this game since they will still, likely, finish below the Rockets because of their closing schedule and it would give the Rockets a better chance of catching the Nuggets. But forget logic: Over the years I've had a soft spot for the Nuggets while the Jazz are a major thorn.

    Disagree. Utah plays us well, and they're healthy with their backs to the wall. I expect them to come out guns blazing. I'd love to get the win tonight and pretty much drive a stake through their division hopes.

    I'm confused. I could have sworn I seen you post yesterday or two days ago under Blame Tracy and it still had member status. :confused: :confused:

    The more Utah loses, the less chance we have of playing them. So as usual, I want the Jazz to get their heads stomped in.

    Denver has to win, Utah needs to slip to the bottom.

    Denver = Biggest pretender with a jello strength schedule

    I think we are better off denver winning honestly, denver as a 2 seed? lol that is hilarious. I just don't wanna play utah, because if we do then there is no point in even watching that series since we would lose

    I'll actually go for Denver (as much as I hate their thuggin' players like Nene, Carmelo, and Martin). If the Jazz drop to 8th and the Rockets land in a 2/3/6/7, we'll avoid Utah AND L.A. until the conference finals.

    I have the Jazz losing all their remaining road games and finishing in the 8th spot for the playoffs. :)

    There's a poster called BlameTracy (no space). There was confusion because it's similar to Blame Tracy(with space). So Blame Tracy was forced to change his name. Blame Tracy = ItsMyFault.

    The Nuggets may have made a mistake by wearing these weird green jerseys and allowing the Jazz to wear their home white. I sensed a Denver blowout, but I'm not sure anymore.
