Not to jinx anything, but Miami is up 5 on Golden State midway through the 4th.

would be huge, not as big as a win wednesday night but still big just cause we expected a loss...watching

Does that make the Lakers the largest threat to our NETANK?

I don't think there's any way a team can finish below the Nets at this point.  And it's really difficult to see much of a change next season, either, unless they're able to steal a couple restricted free agents that pan out.

Still Miami for now.  They've got three games coming up with Brooklyn to get back in it, although I don't think it matters.

Wow! Heat beat GSW and now the Pelicans without AD are about to beat the Cavs. Great night for our pick!

That's the crazy thing about it, too. I just don't see how they get better for next year. In fact, once they trade Lopez, which seems inevitable at this point, they'll get even worse in the short-term.

And this year the closest competition for the rest of the year is probably the Lakers, who are clearly in tank mode now that their early season success is done and over with, yet they're still seven wins over the Nets. I'm still not convinced that the Nets win seven more games this season.

At this point I wouldn't be surprised if the Heat steamroll Brooklyn in at least 2 out of those 3 games.

We're approaching an insurmountable gap. Guys, we're looking at #1 odds in a transcendent draft. Oh yeah, and we have the league's second leading scorer and the 3 seed.

Miami have won four straight.

Face it everyone, the C's are getting that no. 1 pick.

Top 4 pick. There is always the lottery

Imagine how awesome we would feel if we beat Cleveland or GSW - two of the worst teams in the league just did it.

That's why the play the games, I guess.
