    Dont be too sad about Nuggets fans - they have a different type of Nugget they can enjoy all summer long.

    We want Warriors to lose. All 4 All Stars have serious injuries. We can get 2 seed.

    I miss being able to have serious, logical basketball discussion on this forum. Now it's spam about us being able to clinch the 2 seed that will continue even after we've been mathematically eliminated from the 2 seed.

    I mean, we don't control our own destiny to the 2, so @KingSpeed does have a point. I'd be happy with the 3, all things considered. If the chips fall and we get the 2, bonus. If not, a top 3 seed for this team is amazing. Win-win. (I'm also not saying we're a lock to get the 3 seed, just using the alternative)

    We have no realistic chance at the 2 seed.

    This is what I was referring to, since we don't control our own destiny. I never said it was realisitic, but that it we were not eliminated. I, too, doubt we get the 2. But keeping the 3 would be a huge win in it of itself, and THAT we do have control over.

    Exactly though. So much talk about something we have no chance at is what I'm talking about.

    Sorry dude, but Blazers can't change mathematical probability.

    I bet you $100 we don't get the 2 seed.
