    yes, but if Portland wins while we beat Minny then we can't finish 8th.

    Exactly. The only way the Spurs finish 8th is if they go 0-2 these last two games.

    we can go 1-1 and still finish 8.

    if okc beats portland tomorrow and then portland beats GS and we split the next 2 games.. then we will be in a tie with portland which would put us at the 8th spot.. unless OKC loses to memphis then its a 3 way tie and okc will get the 8..

    that make sense?

    I'm not really going to cheer for either team tomorrow..whatever happens, there's positives regardless of the winner of their game tomorrow..

    No.

    OKC beats Portland and Memphis 51-31

    Portland loses to OKC and beats the Warriors 50-32

    Spurs go 1-1 and finish 50-32, lose tiebreaker to Portland and finish 8th.

    To avoid 8th: beat Minny and pull for Portland and then the Spurs can't finish lower than 7th.

    That's what's scares me the most, it's a REALLY realistic scenario...

    I think that our best hope to have a shot at a championship run is to finish 6 and avoid Lakers or Mavs in the 1st round (although I would love a revenge against the Mavs...)

    Let's just hope the Spurs make the most of their last 2 games and let the chips fall where they may as regards to seedings.. it would be nice to carry some momentum into the POs.

    If the Lakers are to be beat this year, it will have to happen early in the playoffs when Bynum is still rusty and their backcourt is playing inconsistent ball. If LA makes it past the first 2 rounds, I don't really see them being beaten in the WCF, even if we somehow make it that far. Which means the first round is the most likely stumbling block.

    LA feasting on the inexperienced and error-prone Thunder is just going to give them more rest and a chance to get Bynum up to speed. I'd rather us or the Blazers take a shot at LA in round 1. If we don't beat them now, we sure aren't beating them in the WCF.

    OKC will not beat portland. OKC will be 8th, they are already feeling the pressure.

    For the sake of argument, if Hill is out for the first two games of the 1st round, do you still want LA?

    I had a question off topic, I was wondering when you win whataburger for a year(saw in your sig) is that like once a week or month or something? I find it hard to believe that they will let somebody go there whenever they please.... lol I have always wondered about this.

    VBM looks to be more cunning than clutch; way to avoid the DQ, even while going double fry.

    You get 52 coupons for a "free whataburger." For some reason they assume that one whataburger a week is all someone needs...FALSE!

    Also, a free whataburger does not include cheese, an extra patty (if you like the double whataburger) or fries on the side.

    The camera guy next to me yelled at me to do it as time was winding down. I wasn't paying attention to the guy I was going against, but I assumed it was close.

    Finally, I didn't realize how Phil Mickelson-esque that victory jump was...FAIL on my part.
