    Really thought the Grizz were dead when we won Monday... now im not so sure at all. Maybe Speed will be right about them. Imagine if the Grizz who already hate us (miles) and now having Zach (who hates us) steal our playoff spot???? Well then....root HARD for the Spurs tonight, because if the Grizz win they will be at 35 wins by next weeks end.
    They have the Nets and Knicks coming up. Both slam dunk wins. Should they lose tonight vs SA, they would be 32-31. And Duncan is suppose to sit out back to back games. However if they (grizz) win, and we likely lose tomorrow to Denver....

    Blazers 37-28

    Grizz 35-30

    I believe thats 2 games?????

    Little too close for comfort with their offense.


    The good news... the hornets season is now over. Its either the Grizz or rockets who could catch us.

    Don't be shocked if the Grizz get in and the Spurs end up on the outside looking in. San Antonio is not the same team they were three, two years or even one year ago. They've got a very road heavy schedule with a lot of playoff teams on their slate.

    EDIT: Regardless of what happens tonight, I'd hardly log any wins for the Grizz, they've had a hard time with consistency.

    Funny how you assume the Grizz are gonna win all their games. Why even play the games? Pure optimism for all teams other than the Blazers. Your act is a joke.

    Lets leave the ASSumptions out of it. They are currently 4 games behind us. THey are coming on so strong that they actually lost ground (.5 games) on us over each teams last games. We were 7-3 and they were 6-4.

    I love how EVERY other fucking team is on the rise, has a great coach and has NO flaws except his "favorite" team!

    Man, those Grizz show a ton of promise!

    San Antonio 102
    Da Grizz 92

    Instead of finishing 52-30, they'll AT LEAST be 51-31. The Blazers better watch out!

    After Denver tomorrow, we have 5 very winnable games. I smell a winning streak coming on. We can make some ground.

    I'm just glad Houston is probably out of the picture but the Grizzlies have a chance grabbing the spot.

    Yeah, I agree. Put a fork in them. They are not going anywhere but the lottery.

    Hollinger's playoff odds give them 2.4% chance of making the playoffs.
