We never lose to Houston in the post-season. This is the best position for us.

I'd love to go at Houston in the post season. Get Gobert and Hood more playoff experience and baptize Mitchell by fire. Make the playoffs or go hard for the tank. I just don't want any of this 10-14th pick crap. All in, one way or the other.

New day:
Thunder @ Magic
Twolves @ Pels (don't care, Pels will probably win with Wolves on a back-to-back and playing all their guys 100 minutes yesterday)
Grizzlies @ Spurs
Warriors
@ Lakers

Well, that worked out well. I was wrong, though. Wolves stepped up and won. What a disaster it would be for the Thunder to miss out on the playoffs this year...
 
Damn Nuggets winning on a late bucket, but great win for us and some nice help from Giannis et al.
We're back to .500!
 
Friday's games:
Spurs @ Grizzlies
Wolves @ Thunder (win-win, Thunder is far from out of it, but the Wolves are ahead, I think perhaps I prefer Minny to win)
Pelicans @ Jazz
 
Mitchell and Burks killed it last night. Mitchell I have come to expect it most night but Burks was a surprise and not because of the numbers. He has had great games before but it was crazy moves and Houdini baskets. Not last night. Last night was sustainable. He made his baskets while maintaining body control and playing in the offense. I don't think I saw a single Houdini basket where he hit the floor, Pull up Js, 3s, layups... If all the work the jazz coaches have been doing with Burks is about to pay off...

Means Paul George won't be sticking around. Westbrook is such a ball hog. Guess I'm not as critical of Durant as I used to be. Jazz play OKC 3x this month. Will Utah be the team that breaks up the Thunder, as they did to the Clippers?
 
I've said it before and I'll say it again, this team is a better version of the Detroit team that won it all on defense and an all-in team mentality of unselfish basketball.
