    Not true at all. I said I'd be shocked if the trash made it out of the first round after they lost by 30 to Utah. I still maintain that. Trash Warriors are awful.

    I posted this in another thread: back in 1992, I think, the Knicks led the Celtics by 5 games for the division lead with only 5 games left and Boston ended up winning the division. Crazy shit happens, I guess.

    Earlier in the season, I did say that I'd be shocked if Warriors made the playoffs though. At this point in the season, I'm stunned to see them have such a great record but I would absolutely be shocked if they make it to the 2nd round. Like I'd have to rest for two weeks just to take it all in.

    Blazers: 38-26, next vs Knicks
    Pelicans: 36-26, next @ Clippers
    Spurs: 37-27, next @ Golden State
    Wolves: 38-28, next vs Celtics
    Thunder: 37-28, next vs Rockets

    Pelicans actually on a longer winning streak than the Blazers. Spurs, Wolves and Thunder could easily all lose.

    Probably worse. @HCP thinks the Lakers are as good as @KingSpeed things the Blazers are. So @KingSpeed FTW! :cheers:

    Go Clippers. Let's create more and more space between us and the rest of the West.

    As of tonight Portland has a 48% chance of finishing #5 or lower and not getting HCA. & a 42% chance of getting #3 or #4.

    I will be shocked if trash Warriors win another game this season. They are TRASH.
