I don't follow the NBA as closely as some other sports, but Nate McMillan has done a great job this year with the Blazers.

dallas, phoneix and okc i wouldn't mind, but i don't think okc is too possible. They can't win in utah (or here), in l.a. or denver, so I don't want any of those three.

that was one of the worst officated (sp?) I've seen in a long time. Jason Terry runs batum over twice in a row and it's a foul on batum, brandon gets his jersey grabbed and no foul called, and either batum or camby got their jerseys grabbed and no foul. Thats not to mention juwan getting elbowed by dampier i beieve before juwan got him. I agree with the crowd booing and chanting these refs sucks, cause they sure do. It looked like the refs had a bet with dallas, cuban must've paid them before the game.

Don't forget the no call on the Rudy mugging in the first half

Nice to see Blazers pull a WIN against Lakers at LA. Lets hope Roy's injury isnt that serious. WE need him in playoffs!

What a win in LA today, luckly lakers were something like 5-23 on their threes. I heard brandon has a bruise and won't play tommorrow, let's hope he only misses that game or golden state. Tommorrow's a big game, with a win we would most likely get sixth.

That's not necessarily good. The last team I want to draw is Utah, second to last is Denver and both are in contention for that 6 spot. Crossing my fingers for Dallas and hoping he doesn't go off for 40 during the playoffs.

I know. I can't believe I'm saying this, but we might want to lose to the Thunder if that would allow us to play Dallas.

Dallas will be seeded:
• #2 if Mavericks win OR Jazz lose.
• #3 if Mavericks lose and Jazz wins.

Denver will be seeded:
• #4 if Suns beat the Jazz.
• #5 if Jazz beat the Suns.

Utah will be seeded:
• #2 if Jazz wins and Mavericks lose.
• #3 if Jazz wins and Mavericks win.
• #5 if Jazz loses to the Suns.

Phoenix will be seeded:
• #3 if Suns beat the Jazz
• #4 if Suns lose to the Jazz

Portland will be seeded:
• #6 if Blazers win OR Spurs lose
• #7 if Blazers lose and Spurs win

So it comes down to Jazz, Mavs, and Suns. I definitely want to play the Jazz. So we gotta hope for one of the following scnearios:
* Mavs win OR Jazz Lose, and Blazers lose and Spurs win.
* Mavs Lose AND Jazz win, and Blazers win OR Spurs lose

Maybe I'm not thinking straight, but if you want us to play the Jazz, it doesn't really seem like your scenarios make much sense. Wouldn't you want:
*Jazz win, Mavs lose, Blazers lose and Spurs win.
-or-
*Jazz win, Mavs win, Blazers win OR Spurs lose
?

Maybe you meant you want us to play the Mavs?

What a great win vs the thunder. camby with an incredible game. It was excellent to hear the crowd chant his name, hopefully he resigns with us in the offseason. Incredebile that we won the season series vs five out of the other seven playoff teams. I hoping to face the suns in the first round personally.

BUMP

Dallas is #2.
Portland is #6.

Utah will be seeded:
• #3 if Jazz win.
• #5 if Jazz lose to the Suns.

Phoenix will be seeded:
• #3 if Suns beat the Jazz
• #4 if Suns lose to the Jazz

So we either play Utah or Pheonix. I think I'd rather play Phoenix, but since Utah has a handful of injuries, maybe playing them would be better?
