if they continue to play like this...they make the playoffs
baring any injuries though
if fakers continue to struggle or pull that kobe trade and struggles...NOH will make the playoffs along with memphis
I can't see NO being a championship team but who knows. Peja for now is healthy and shooting lights out.
ing Southwest Division![]()
The more you work hard for it, the better it feels. Id rather be in the toughest division on the better conference than go through panzies and then never know what you're really worth.
It is the result of the Spurs and Mavs (to a slightly lesser extent) being SO GOOD for SO LONG. Others simply have to pay to play in this division.
And most are built with an eye to matching with the Spurs.
they are a pretty stacked team.

Peja
David West
Tyson Chandler
injuries absolutely KILLED them last year
It should last longer than my vbookie balance, that's for sure.
Dont forget about Memphis. They've got a pretty good team. I wont be surprised if they make the playoff. So the whole SW division could end up in the playoffs. Has that ever happened.

That's what's up! They have a relatively weak bench, but that's a pretty good bunch of starters.
I have 4/5 SW teams making the playoffs this year with only Memphis missing out (and if Darko wakes up, they could make some noise too). We live in the perennial slaughterhouse division.![]()
If N.O. stays healthy they could be this year's Utah.
And as we speak, they go down to the winless Blazers.
I'm still waiting for the Spurs vs. Hornets litmus test . . .

Patience.
I live in Portland now and I just got back from the Hornets-Blazers game. The Hornets did not have a lot of energy, but David West was a beast. His rebounding was very smooth and agile, and he can score in different ways. Overall New Orleans is a good team and Chris Paul is one of the better PG's in the league, but they are very beatable. They aren't deep at all. Every time the 2nd unit came in they fell behind.
Houston was not a tough PO team. But actually considering how many games Yao and TMac missed last season, their record was pretty good. But once you get to POs, you never know. PO is something different from regular season.
But I kind want to meet Boston. When do we meet them?
