    We will go on a tear because like last year, our schedule is way easier.

    We will. Our schedule is insanely easy. So much rest. So many home games. 10 of last 12 at home. Our record will improve. It's built into the schedule.

    If we can get 7th I want it. If we can't get it then I want no part of 8th. We struggled early. I expected us to do better on that East Coast trip. I don't see 7th happening. I think we get 8th which I not thrilled with. Give me the lotto instead in that case.

    Why play the games if we know we're already going to win?

    Tomorrow's game is huge. Grizzlies are 7th and they are 7 games ahead of us. This would be the first step towards getting there. I think 6th is possible too. We are 1-0 vs OKC and we have three more games against them. I'll admit 8th is most likely. We'll see.

    I would have been fine (even happy) if CJ made it. Wasn't going to happen with the record and competition though.

    Because it is. CJ has played better for most of the season.

    Might be one of the reasons neither made it. They split the vote between each other as the Portland representative.

    Like how the Dallas game at home earlier in the season was built into the schedule as a win? Yet we were down by 20 points at one time in that game? That kind of built in? There are no guarantees, so stop talking like there are guarantees. Live in the real world for once.

    CJ will probably be there again in some capacity.

    No YOU stop talking. Want to make a bet? We started the season 20-27. I'm 100% positive that we'll go at least 20-15 the rest of the way. That is a big improvement. So there's the bet. I bet we win 20 more games. You in?
