Re: Playoff Watch Thread
If phoenix and houston finish the season with the same record, who has the tiebreaker? since we are 2-2 against each other.

Re: Playoff Watch Thread
It goes to conference play. 32-17 are the rockets and you guys are 29-21. So the rockets own the tiebreaker over you. Unless you get some ridiculous help you will be either the 5th or 6th seed.

Re: Playoff Watch Thread
I hope we play LA in the first round, SA in the second, Houston in the conf finals and Boston in the finals to exercise ALL of the previous Suns' demons en route to our first championship!

Re: Playoff Watch Thread
If we're going to play SA or Lakers. I'd rather face SA to try to get them out of the way. Lakers aren't part of the Suns demons either. They've won a season series, that's it.
Houston will not make it to the WCF. No way.

Re: Playoff Watch Thread
Nuggets played Utah tough up until the end of 3rd, early 4th. Jazz just took over. Warriors are leading Clippers so they still have some life.
Apparently Manu won't play against Lakers tomorrow.

Re: Playoff Watch Thread
Hornets lose to the Kevin Martin-less Kings.
Warriors beat the Clips.

Re: Playoff Watch Thread
Well what do you know, losing to Houston might end up being a blessing in disguise. Because of the Hornets' loss, the Lakers have now moved to 1st place and may very well stay there. They just need to beat the Spurs. And without Manu, that's very likely. So then the Spurs will drop to 5th and the Rockets move up to 3rd.
Unfortunately, the season doesn't end yet if the Spurs lose to the Lakers. Both the Hornets and Rockets still have tough games ahead. So the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 5th and possibly even 6th seeds aren't decided yet. And then there's the battle for 8th. It looks like this'll all be decided on April 16th, the very last day.

Re: Playoff Watch Thread
I kind of want the Lakers in the first round...I just read Bynum won't be back anytime soon, and thats a big advantage to us...lets get them out of the playoffs before he comes back and the Lakes do some damage.

Don't forget with every passing day Pau gets healthier. Right now he's not as mobile and wont be for the next couple of weeks or so.

Re: Playoff Watch Thread
We wont face the Lakers in the first round... they will end in 1st or second. We are gonna face either the Spurs, Rockets or Jazz. And among them Id rather not face the Jazz, they look scary right now.

Re: Playoff Watch Thread
Too bad Houston lost to Denver. They could've swapped places with the Spurs. As it is now, seedings 1 through 7 look pretty much set. The Lakers just have a home game against the Kings and that's it. The Rockets play the Jazz in Utah so most likely they'll lose. The Spurs play the Jazz at home so most likely they'll win. If we beat the Warriors then the Nuggets get the 8th spot and hopefully we get home court advantage against the Jazz if we meet them in the playoffs.
Right now, I don't really care anymore who we face. It just would've been nice to get homecourt advantage against somebody in the playoffs.

Re: Playoff Watch Thread
I wouldn't count out the Jazz. Especially, if Manu is still out again.
Dallas could fall to the 8th seed, if they lose to NO, and Nuggets beat the Grizzlies.
