    Too bad, they have become your team you root against.

    Okay, do what you want, but that would be like rooting for the Houston Rockets to win the championship this year.

    I was just really happy TT lost their conference championship because so many people told me they were going to win it. So it was great telling them they were wrong heh. I'm not sure what any of this has to do with the Rockets though. :)

    Found this handy flow chart on reddit : If HOU gets 2, we will be 4th (as long as we win 1 or UTA loses 1).

    Russ, PG13,Harden and CP3 get MAD love from the refs. Thats all I’m saying.

    Been bugging my guy with NBA for some clarity. He’s super busy right now, but he sent me this and now I’m more confused than ever.

    The 3 seed scenario:
    DEN wins at least 1
    HOU loses to OKC
    We beat LAL and SAC
    Our most likely opponent as a 3 seed would be SAS

    OKC could move up to 5 if they win out and UTA loses out.

    Magic number is 1 between us and Utah for home court

    You could have learned as much by reading the last page or so of this thread.

    BTW, watching that Utah game last night, you just see how valuable Rubio is to that squad. He's resting his quad but man they are just a different team without him. I wouldn't mind facing them if he's not full strength. They really have no defensive weakness in their lineup to exploit if he's healthy.

    All those that stand in the way of our home court advantage should lose. We know Pops will sit starters if he is in favorable playoff berth status. I hate to say this but- Go Clippers. I felt sick sayin that.

    Funny, those 4 have a combined 0 titles and have been known to disappear in the playoffs at times so if they were getting "mad love form the refs" it isn't equating to rings.

    It doesnt really matter, Denver almost beat us with a C-Team at our place when they were trying to throw the game. I honestly don't see us getting out the 1st round no matter what seed we are at.

    And we were right with them at their place without Nurk, CJ, or Curry, and with Dame playing poorly, so... :dunno:

    Which is why I said I didn't want to play OKC or Houston FAMS.

    That info was probably contained in 30 posts. I need it all in one place homie. I get distracted easily.

    To be honest, I think Golden State is probably the main reason they haven't one any rings.
