thats how close the west is. well maybe a game and half lead. I dont know, i just done see it. Are we really gonna beat out Dallas, SA, or the Suns? after watching this team since they played the knicks, i just dont see us beating one of those teams unless they suffer an injury or we make a deal. The good news? everyone else in the west is dead as far as teams like Sac, clippers etc..but this team as it stands now doe snot look like it can seperate itself from any of teh teams i mentioned. Theres no excuse for losing teh magic game. It will come back to haunt us. If we lose to utah which is likely..we will be 1-3 in our last 4. Thats not a very good sign for us with the mavs and spurs making strong pushes.
Meh. Our easy schedule starts around January 7. Until then we are going night in night out against very good teams. Losing to the Celtics on the court is no shame. Losing to Orlando on a crazy shooting night is no shame - and Utah is a deep and talented team coached by a great coach - I still think we have a good chance of coming back with a W - but even if we do not - I am not going to melt.
Eric I think you should back off this topic. You will drive yourself batty if you follow the playoff race this early in the year.
