    A Minnesota homer picked them to make the playoffs? No...

    That's BS. We are so in the playoffs.

    WTF does Rick Nambla know?

    I'm calling a season like the 1999 one; where we are #1 for most the season and drop to #3 by march.

    It's the last 16 games that are important to me.

    Btw, the Lakers ahead of Portland? That is laughable.

    barring Kobe coming back earlier and not needing half a season to get his shit together, that team is painfully bad.

    Their PG is old as dirt
    Their C (Gasol) isn't much of a threat on his own anymore (he's similar to LaMarcus in that regard).
    Their PF/C (Kaman) isn't exactly scary anymore.
    And then after that they have....um.....Steve Blake?

    Seriously, look at that bench. It's not as bad as Portland's last year, but it's damn close.

    *facepalm*

    Who cares? He's not even an analyst.

    We may make the playoffs, we may not. It's not the end of the world.

    I would have been more surprised if he didn't have the Wolves ahead of us. The Lakers though is hilarious, gotta placate those casual Kobe fans i guess. Also, i'm still not seeing Denver, just because they were good last year doesn't mean they will be this year with how their offseason went.

    Uhm...

    If my numbers are correct, he has LAL out of the playoffs. Who cares if they are ahead of us? When you're out of the top 8, no one remembers anyway.

    He doesn't say they'll make the playoffs.

    As for the crack about "beat writer no playoffs = hack"...

    well, maybe he's (Kamla) being cracked on because he's a tool?
