    Highest scoring trio in the NBA in March?

    And a top ten defense as stated by BNM? I'll take as much of that as I can get thank you. The pundits are sleeping.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    You liking my post just means I need to re-think some things! I didn't say anything nice about the Lakers in my post.

    Is there a diamond in my pants? Because I'm a 10 on the Moh's Scale after watching this.

    I posted this a couple of weeks ago but seems relevant for this discussion:

    Noah shot over 57% after the all star break. And even when Nurk did not play, Noah had some good games. In those last 7 games he averaged 57% from the field and 9 rebounds. (93% from the line) This is why I am more concerned with the SF position than I am with the PF spot moving forward. Especially when you include the rookies down the road.

    Looking at the depth chart of all teams in the NW, I can't say any team scares me right now. We all seem to missing that one player who can make us a contender. Although OKC is obviously the best team...unless westbrook gets hurt

    He's got a boner.

    The Moh's scale is a scale for measuring the hardness of minerals. The diamond has a rating of 10 on the Moh's scale, the hardest naturally occurring mineral.

    It's the reason Mrs. HCP has the nickname "Bling".

    Whatever place we finish in the division is in not important. The hope is that we achieve a second round Playoff berth.

    The Lakers BTW would be tough, er at least. The Bucks I think should at some point burst can't believe they gave away MCW, Milsap is top talent, Teague is the better addition the Wolves made and Zach Lavine they moved for Butler is a great talent IMO, Olynyk to Miami would make them better - him and Whiteside is great defense, Thomas Robinson if i'm not mistaken is still a free agent, or if he's still with the Lakers they'd be even better. The Rockets are good not just because they added Paul, they had a great supporting cast last year, the thunder with Westbrook and George is nice but don't know if they make a well rounded team, Utah would get better not worse - they have a lot of talent, the Spurs would be weaker.
