god i've wanted to say that since 2-10 Ignore the potential injury to Francis. Ass-u-me that Shandon will play like he did during Francis' last injury (if he's truly out for a while). If you're hanging out here w/ the team at 19-27 and you're at least marginally attractive, you're watching the games b/c you think the team's going to miraculously make the playoffs. therefore 9 of 12 is... (drum roll please) 75% (you know 3 above 4... anyway). If we were to keep up said performance (we should be 11 of 12) then we'll be at 46 and 36. Is that good enough? If so, which team will be displaced... Minnesota? Not likely Phoenix? This would be a beaut. Seattle? Vin Baker's actually playing near the basket this year. hmmmm...... Utah? Utah has dropped 5 and face LAL and SAS next. With Chicago, Boston and SAC around the corner (amongst others) a 0-11 run would be unobjectionable (they face Detroit on game #12 of the streak potentially w/o Hill). 27-23? It is all coming together as I have foreseen it.
We won't catch Utah....as much as I would love it and relish in it and rub it in all my friends faces.
