    I think we will be going up against the Clippers in the first round.

    I don't think so. The Clippers have an easy schedule from this point on. I think they'll end up in 2nd place in the West. Houston or San Antonio seem like a more probable first round opponent to me.

    I think it's damn near impossible to predict who we will go against. Have you seen how close it is and the remaining schedules?

    Houston has- @dal @okc @sas vsSas
    Spurs have- HOUx2 @okc vsGSW
    Clippers play lakersx2 denverx2 PHX and MEM

    I honestly wouldn't be surprised if this ends up with a rematch vs the rockets.

    That would be crazy. So where you see us? That means they pass up Houston, us, Memphis and SAS. So who's 6th?

    We should beat OKC. Mavs are 50/50. Anybody else kicks our ass.

    The only team we can beat is Mavs. Okc would probably get us honestly.

    Mavs and Blazers are the easiest teams in the playoffs this year

    Monumental FAIL statement. I will be sure to make a nice signature of your cheesy trolling when we reach the WCF

    We have an excuse, im not saying the way our team is built fully healthy we can't win a title. We have Wes out, Wright is now injured, so we shouldnt expect much THIS YEAR.

    Our window should start next year. We can still clean some things up this summer thru free agency but as far as this year goes, it's just not our time.

    I hope Crabbe gets some good minutes from here on out backing Batum up, Dame tastes the playoffs once more which gains more experience, LMA resigns, then we can go for the kill next year.

    Everyone except OKC, Dallas and maybe Houston. I think everyone else will beat them unless something's change more specifically defense and yes toughness.

    Fuck that. They would beat us in 5. That team is Kryptonite to us since Saunders traded Love.

    I thought they haven't won a game in 40 years or something.

    To win a championship, you have to beat everyone so I hope we fear no one. For resale purposes, I really want the Clippers or Rockets and do not want Memphis, SA, or Dallas.
