    I know we have a thread about the race for HCA. But this thread is different. This is about the whole 10 teams. And the reason I'm posting is that if San Antonio loses to Utah tonight, they will fall to 10th in the West for the first time in 21 years at this point season. Could BonesJones walk back then? Anyway, this is what happens IF SA loses: Clippers move up to 7th. Utah moves up to 8th. Finally. Denver stays at 9th. And as I said, Spurs move to 10th where they may very well stay for the rest of the season. It is poetic justice that in the three years since Aldridge left us, his team has fallen to 10th and the rebuilding Blazers have moved up to 3rd. Beautiful. And people say Neil is a bad GM.....

    P.S. If Spurs win, we gain a game on Houston so all is good.

    TT. He deserves to lose. I'd also like to see SAS finally lose, miss the playoffs, and lose Kawhi.

    So yeah, fuck SAS too.

    Spurs better get rid of Aldridge's ass quick cause they ain't ever going to win with him.

    If you know you are going to get called out on it being a similar thread and have to explain why then it probably doesn't deserve its own thread.

    C'mon, we've been over this.

    Besides being the Texas Turncoat, TT is like a little black girl's nickname.

    I thought it was Tyrus Thomas, the guy we traded for Aldridge.

    Why are you insulting little girls? Especially little black girls?

    Come on man. Any time someone calls him by the A-name I get on them and let them know that his name is the Texas Turncoat and should only be referred to as such. I believe I am the one to come up with the moniker to begin with.

    OKC up to 4 seed. If we're 3 seed, I don't mind OKC at 4 seed. I prefer them play GS or Houston though cuz there would be more drama.
