    I just feel a matchup with OKC will definitely result in a loss for us and a huge blow to to Harden. The media will eat him alive

    Yeah, but if we somehow pulled off the upset it would be the ultimate payback.

    we definitely want the 6th seed. High chance of us getting swept by SA or OKC.

    Curry is out with ankle injury again!

    They're playing the Lakers next. Could this mean a win for the Lakers?

    If Curry is out for a few more games what could the Warriors drop? Could we be seeing a 6th seed possibility after all?

    do you really want to play Denver, who is peaking at the right time? (with the 6th seed)

    If the choice is between Denver, OKC, and SAS? Yes.

    Honestly still preferring OKC and SAS. I feel like the ensuing beat down would force the guys to work even harder in the off-season.

    12 games remaining

    Magic number to make the playoffs:8
    Magic number vs. Warriors: 12
    Magic number vs. Lakers: 10 (worst case assumes we lose tiebreaker season finale @ LAL)
    Magic number vs. Jazz: 7
    Magic number vs. Mavs: 8

    You may want to start tracking Dallas for that 8th seed, they are ahead of Utah now.

    This! Without Curry they aren't quite as good. (well duh!)

    That said, 7 of their next 8 games is at home. (****!)

    They're currently tied with Utah right now but i think the Jazz owns the tie breaker. Anyway, i'll include Dallas once/if they tie the Lakers record.

    Good for team ego if Rockets can get the 6th seed. I have root for GS to lose to the Fakers.
