    CJ scored 40+ in the quadruple OT game too, I believe.

    41 points...on 39 shots

    Denver was in full-time-stop-Dame mode and allowed CJ to chuck away. He made just enough that Rodney Hood was able to win the game in the 4th OT

    You’re not looking forward to lottery, draft, and summer league?

    He's working and your watching soccer? When do you actually work? I mean it just seems like you get to ride around with the team for free?
    From what I read on here Blazer Broadcasting can't be that tough a gig?

    We want GS to lose in the first play-in games so we get the best possible pick from them. So who do we want to win today that will help them get the toughest two matchups?

    I assume Sac will win against us and that the Warriors will win today against Utah.....so do we want the Lakers to win? It looks like a 3-way tie moves the Warriors ahead of the Lakers. The good news is one of those two teams will not make the playoffs if they play one another. But if the Warriors beat the Lakers in SF then who do we want them to face in the 2nd play-in game? It looks like it could be the Kings and I don't trust them in a one-game play-in. Hopefully, Sac wins against Phoenix or NO

    Here are the tie-breakers:

    From the looks of the standings right now in the NBA it sure seems like a 50 win season is still a good thing.
    So many people dogging the Blazers when they were winning 50+ games.

    yeah, kind of. It's still a decently high threshold

    Portland hit the 50 win mark 5 times with Drexler/Porter/Kersey/Buck; 3 times with Dame + Aldrdge/CJ (49 once); twice with Roy/LMA; twice with Pippen/Rasheed/Sabonis; once with Walton. That's 13 times in 54 seasons; slightly less than 1 in 4
