    Way to go Dirk. You're up there with Franz Beckenbauer and Oliver Kahn. :cheers:

    Plums just got Draykicked in the Plumlees by Keef Morris. Denver down 11 w 2 mins left. Would put us into a tie in the loss column if WAS holds on.

    They gave Morris a flagrant 2. Lol Draymond gets off so easy. Plums having a great game today as starting C with the ill Jokic

    Wow! Morris kicked Plumlee in the groin, really obvious. Flagrant count 2, Morris expelled from game. Plumlee writhed in pain on the floor for awhile. He gets 2 FTs.

    For Plumlee, that's the definition of adding insult to injury.

    We're tied in the loss column for the 8th seed. Not sure how to feel about this

    He missed the first one, and I waited to post till he shot the second one. It was taking a long time, and I thought, it'll just add to the bad news, so I went ahead and clicked "Post."

    It hadn't occurred to the coaches or refs to review the call until the replay was shown on TV. Morris almost escaped the Flagrant.

    In the replay, Markief's shoe is placed squarely where it shouldn't be. Our view is perfect, from behind Plumlee's butt. Someone will put it onto YouTube.

    The Celtics always give the Warriors trouble.

    If Avery Bradley and CJ combined forces, would that be the best shooting guard in the NBA?

    Denver has lost 2 of 3 at home. They have Boston at home next. If they lose that one they are in trouble. 7 of their last 9 are on the road. Dallas has an easier schedule left.

    That the team we need to worry about is Dallas for the 8th seed.

    Yes. The crazy offensive skills of CJ combined with Bradley's defensive chops would be HOF level talent.

    Based on point differential right? That could easily change down the stretch.

    How so? We're 2-2 head to head, and Portland has a better conference record.

    MEM slumping hard. Draft pick looking better and better, could their pick end up being higher than ours? This man says yes!

    Loss tonight makes it 4 in a row. Only a half game better than the hawks, who they play next. If they lose, our pick moves into the #19 position :)
