Last Day, Playoff Seedings

[WuRaider]

Dallas up by 12 with less than a min to go.

Set in stone:

#1 LA Vs #8 Den
#2 NOH Vs #7 Dallas

Go Nugz, Go Mavs! barf:

 

[sLapzsHaQ]

yeah, and J-Kidd got 27-10-10
Well, if Kidd plays that well every night, I say good luck to New Orleans, they would be out the first round. And that was Dirk having and off night, and we all know that Dirk would eventually get his. So, this NO vs Mavs is a hell of a match up, But I say, Mavs in 6.

 

[WuRaider]

Floppy is going to play in the Jazz-San game. If SAS isn't going to tank it, we better hope Utah doesn't.

 

[sLapzsHaQ]

Utah would not tank it, or else they would be facing the Rockets without HCA..

 

[dodie53]

go nuggets!

go mavericks!

Saving my playoff predictions for tomorrow

 

[mjb21aztd]

spurs are owning the jazz early hope the jazz come back and win

 

[WuRaider]

Damn Spurs, always fugging ***** up for us

 

[az1965]

Houston up big end of 3rd. Looks like they are going to win unless a complete breakdown happens in 4th.

 

[TheHopToad]

Damn Spurs, always fugging ***** up for us

It's still early. Jazz are a good 4th qtr team and the Spurs have been not been finishing very well the last couple of weeks. This game could turn around quickly.

Wait until 2nd half. Spurs have been struggling big time in 2nd halves of last few games.

 

[nashman]

not sure Utah is gonna try all that hard to win this game

 

[nashman]

sure they would rather have us or the rockets as opposed to the spurs in round 1

 

[WuRaider]

not sure Utah is gonna try all that hard to win this game

I agree. They win, they face the Spurs. They lose and they face us or the Rockets. Doesn't seem like a hard choice for them.

 

[WuRaider]

I think the lead will grow to 20 by the half. Then Sloan will sit his players and smile at his tank job.

and losing homecourt? I don't think a Jazz team which sucks on the road and is dominant at home smiles at that. I just think the Spurs are tougher... yeah, great for us! Our choke job against Dallas means we get the defending champs again... and a likely first round exit. ugh.

Playing Houston without homecourt is not bad at all. Its what we're trying to get.

Playing Houston without homecourt is not bad at all. Its what we're trying to get.

a) we're not a bad road team like the Jazz, b) we're not a dominant home team like the Jazz and c) we're trying to get that because we literally can't get anything else.

sorry, but the Jazz know they're best chance to get through the West is to a) have homecourt in at least one round and avoid the Lakers as long as possible. Tanking tonight flies in the face of both of those.

It doesn't matter if they get homecourt in the first round if they're going to be playing the Spurs. I'm anxious to see how they come out in the second half but something tells me they don't want to play the Spurs.

something tells me they're a bad road team and they're doing what bad road teams do... lose on the road. 17-24 is a bad record. It's not even mediocre on the road. It's just bad. I don't believe they're looking forward to opening up on the road and then even if they do get through the first round, facing a Laker team who regularly beats the crap out of them in LA and even wins in Utah.

 

[Kody Rumin]

It looks like Utah isn't even trying defensively. San Antonio already has 60 first half points. That's way too large of a score for them.

 

[Cheesebeef]

i could definitely be wrong though. i just think if that's what Utah was doing they're idiots.

 

[Hat]

Well it looks the Suns will face the Spurs (HCA) 1st round!

Time for payback!!

 

[hsandhu]

Jazz aren't tanking they just are overrated. This is the same stuff we saw in WCF finals last year, they got passed the 2nd round because they played the 8th seed and needed houston blowing game 7 to get passed round 1.
I don't get the love some people like Barkley give them.

And all you people who want the spurs this is the spurs team we're getting. It's playoff time and they turn it on. Nice job not grabbing a rebound against houston, this is what we're getting as a result. In round 1, round freakin' 1! We're gonna get through 4 rounds of this?

my thoughts exactly. Spurs in round, without HCA = disaster IMO. I'll be watching and screaming, but I don't have high hopes.
