    assuming Phoenix doesn't blow their huge lead...I believe it is impossible for us to play the Nuggets in the first round. Yes!

    I think I saw that on a cave wall on the Warm Springs Reservation. I didn't know the meaning at the time.

    Still don't.

    We're looking at 17-24 spots now. So yep, Denver is out of play.

    Can we absolutely avoid Utah? PLEASE?! Eh, either way, it's good that we likely won't play the Thuggets. After all, odds are in our favor that we win at least one game vs Utah, right?

    Kidding aside, we'll give any team we play a serious, serious run. That I can guarantee.

    Unless Den makes a miracle comeback they are the 5th seed and we can't play them now until the WCF.

    If Dallas wins we play winner of Phoenix/Utah.

    If San Antonio wins the 3 seed will be Phoenix (if Phoenix wins) or Dallas (if Utah wins)

    If San Antonio wins and we lose we would play Dallas (if Phoenix wins) or Utah (if Utah wins)

    They will be the 4th seed if Utah loses to Phoenix tomorrow but that is the highest they can go.

    If no clear winner comes from all of this, sack races will be help on consecutive sundays.

    I think we may all end up regretting it if we get Phoenix. They are hot and clicking on all cylinders.

    We want San Antonio to win against Dallas. Then if utah wins we face dallas and if phenoix wins we face them.

    It's crazy that if Dallas loses then:

    Utah will be the 2nd seed with a win and the 5th seed with a loss.

    That was almost exactly the same situation as last season. Denver, SA, and Portland all tied at #2, and Houston got the #5 seed by losing its last game.

    yup, Utah is last on my wish list.

    Dallas then Denver (unpopular choice I know) then Phoenix then Utah

    *edit* whoops just read about possible Boozer injury... that would move them to top of the wish list. Crazy
