13 games. Denver plays LAL and Utah plays SA. If . . . or should I say when the Blazers win tonight, they could find themselves in a three way tie for the division league.
Check. Original post should have come with an advisory sticker and a smiley. And the Utah/SAS game? i have to admit it's easier (though certainly not "easy") to root for the Spurs if Manu isn't flopping all over the dang court. Oberto and Pops are only slightly maddening, and now that Bowen isn't Bowen, the maddening factor goes down.
Eh. I'm rooting for the Lakers tonight (not that I'll bother watching... but you know). Outside of massive injuries to their team, I don't see any way Portland ends up with a better record this season. As such, I'd rather see the teams that will be competing for a similar record lose. I'm not so sure I care about Utah/SA. I think SA will rebound and make the playoffs still, so I really prefer both lose. Too bad that's not an option.
