    And I've also said on numerous occasions, that this team has been fantastic! Playing WAY better than myself and many thought they would.

    I think maybe this thread was posted right after the Knicks beat the Jazz, so Utah, who was in the 8th spot to start the day, dropped to half a game behind the Blazers, thereby allowing the Blazers to solely claim the 8th seed, however transient.

    Yes, I see it. For 2 1/2 hours, Portland was .432, Utah was .429, and Sacramento was .425. My second post was before midnight, but the opening post already said "Yesterday" so I thought it had been posted a day earlier, but it hadn't been.

    I can't believe I'm replying to you, but...
    HCP and MM are not "most of us", they are two people.

    But, not all posters post with the same "volume." Those two were particularly insistent.

    Whatever...you've got half a brain between the two of you, and MM's the one with the half a brain.

    I don't know where you got this number, but I don't like it. I predicted 35, so now I may have my homer's license revoked!

    I did the leg work and pulled all the guesses from the prediction thread, and averaged them.
    You're definitely getting your license revoked!

    It's the mean, not the median. Maybe you are still above the median?

    OK, so based on blue9's list, there are 51 total predictions, four @ 35 and four @ 36. The median is 36.

    Why are you such a hater?

    yep, 36 is mean, median, and mode. I am the ultimate centrist!

    Maybe a horrific loss to Philly is just what we needed. Regardless, we've regained 8th after losing it for a while.

    In playoff position after: 47 games (21-26)
