    Phoenix is currently playing the Lakers at home without Amare and Nash
    Denver is at Indiana
    Utah is at Golden State where the Warriors won by 20 last time in the Bay
    We are obviously playing the Spurs and while we may not catch them, it brings us closer
    Houston is at Minnesota where the Wolves have been tough to beat and Houston is coming off of a back to back
    Dallas is playing Toronto in Dallas, should be a Dallas win but you never know when you play Toronto. Bosh could want a huge homecoming
    New Orleans is at New Jersey and currently on a road trip. The Nets are tough at home and Harris could give Paul fits.

    There are 6 games, not including ours, and it would be nice if at least 3 teams lost today. If I could chose the 3 teams to lose it would be Denver, Utah, and Houston/NO(same record in loss column)

    LA is so good, I am used to rooting for them to beat teams in the playoff race..doesn't bug me as much as it has. It will stop soon once Kobe starts declining in 2-3 years.

    It'd be nice to watch the Suns/Lakers games except for the fact Dish Network doesn't carry ABC anymore. Fucking irritating.

    Tonight could be a really really bad night

    i believe with a loss... we are in the 8th spot assuming the other teams win who are playing cupcakes.

    and the suns are a game and a half back.

    scary

    Im waiting for the day when it's Portland that keeps winning when other teams and fans expect them to lose. Right now, that's Denvers role.

    Re: Time to make up ground on the West today!

    Oddly enough, it hurts you guys probably as much. While you beat both the Cavs and Celtics on the road, HCA in the finals will be huge this year.

    My bigger concern is that the Lakers will have righted this MINOR blip in their play before they get to Portland.

    whatever that means...

    They haven't won in our building all season. I guess that means they never usually beat us at home.
