    If not, soon after. Grizzlies and Rockets have some tough games. Spurs still in hunt for division title and we have tie breaker over Spurs. The standings could be dramatically different by mid-next week.

    I'm not saying we'd clinch it this weekend. Just that we'd be there.

    Possible - I'm not sure it's probable.

    We are down 1 game in the loss column and 3 down in the win to the Grizz. They hold the tie breaker if both teams win their respective divisions, so we have to make up at least 3 games in the standings.
    Hopefully the Rockets win the Southwest, because Blazers hold the tie breaker there.

    The schedules of all the team's don't look frightening. I think we stay at four and we get homecourt if we beat clips. If we beat them, I think we get 55 wins, they end up with 54

    Its getting good fellas. Its getting real good!

    If tonight is any indicator of how were headed through the final stretch, were hitting our stride at the right time.

    Now Kingspeed, don't go to anymore games.

    Jinx predicted undefeated for our last how many games?

    The guys on the radio tonight we're all "survive the next 6 and we'll cruise." I was wondering... we have 9 left. Survive the next 6 and then we have 3 more. I'd get it if we had 15-20 games to go. But when you're talking about surviving two-thirds of the remaining games....

    Not saying we can't or won't. Just saying those fools are idiots.

    They have tough schedule. They lose their next two, we win our next 2, Houston loses one and it's ours this weekend. As I said though, I think the Spurs may win their division. San Antonio plays Houston twice next week. If they win both, all hell breaks loose. Houston could finally tumble to 6th and just like that, the Spurs are breathing down Memphis' neck. Stay tuned guys.

    If we do that, we'll be the 2 seed.

    Damn after tomorrow the Clips have an easy ass schedule. Denver twice, Lakers twice and Phoenix once.
    The loan tough game is home vs Memphis. We really need them to lose tonight and of course tomorrow.

    There's a reason the Hollinger-bot currently projects them to finish second in the west.
