    I sit corrected. Although, I basically consider the following 3 games part of the trip as well, since the 5 gamer is followed by one home game (v GSW) and then two more road games.

    You know what's weird? Kingspeed knocked DeAndre Jordan for his terrible FT shooting and lack of scoring, but called T.Rob a beast?! Am I on crazy pills here?!

    After they tumble down the standings, right?

    And yeah, New Orleans in the 8 slot would be better, but it just doesn't feel realistic to me. I'm too much of a pessimist to believe that Westbrick could actually ballhog his team into the lottery.

    All I'm saying is that Is like to see SAS and MEM in the 4-5, because I want both of them on the opposite side of the bracket from us. I think an all flop team first round series of HOU-LAC would be great. They might even be able to generate some flop-fatigue if they flopped their way through 7 games.

    DeAndre Jordan is a beast too. I just said I'd rather not him on our team. I don't watch to watch him shoot free throw after free throw at the end of games. It would be annoying.

    Wasn't it you that talked about Jordan being a scrub because he can't score?

    New Orleans has been playing better basketball than OKC even when they didn't have Davis and they have the tiebreaker. I think it's 60/40 New Orleans gets it.

    No. Strenuus said he'd rather have a 10/10 guy who hits freethrows than a 20/10 who can't, I said whoa there, if a guy was 20/10, I wouldn't mind him missing freethrows. Like I said, Jordan is s good player. Top 10 MVP Candidate. But I wouldn't want him on OUR team.

    lol that was fun to read. I may be a negative person, but I never quit on my team even when we have ridiculous losses *cough*minnesota*cough*. I think I saw a couple posters say they were done and they'll check back in later with the team lol.
