    This is what it comes down to, both Utah and Denver have 2 games left. Denver has the tiebreaker so Utah <u>must</u> have one more win if they are to make the playoffs. This means if Denver win both their games they are into the playoffs. This is the remaining schedules.

    Denver

    Sacramento
    @ San Antonio

    Utah

    @Minnesota
    Phoenix

    If Denver beat Sacramento, and Utah lose to Minnesota Utah can't get the 8 spot and Denver advances. Denver have good odds to beat Sacramento, considering Sacramento played the day before and Denver have won 6 in a row at home.
    So basically if........

    Utah win 2(of 2), Denver wins 2(of 2) - Denver advance
    Utah win 2, Denver wins 1 - Utah advance
    Utah win 2, Denver wins 0 - Utah advance
    Utah win 1, Denver win 2 - Denver advance
    Utah win 1, Denver wins 1 - Denver advance
    Utah wins 1, Denver wins 0 - Utah advance
    Utah wins 0, Denver advances.

    For Portland to advance both Utah and Denver must lose both their games.

    So who do you think will go through?

    You know what, things are looking REALLY bad right now for the Nuggets. Kings and the Spurs, while the Jazz have the TWolves and the Suns. I hope Phoenix can save us and play spoiler, because I don't think we will win either of our 2 remaning games.

    Phoenix could mean fate for these 2 teams. After they beat Memphis, I'm pretty sure that they can beat Utah and Denver advances.
