    Dang you keep jinxing Clipper losses, karacha :p. That’s at least twice they came back after it was posted they were being beat down or they suck. Our playoff chances remain in big trouble, we f***** around during the easy part of the season and now almost evey game is a struggle. It’s going to come down to the wire, but the only teams we even have a shot at passing are the Clippers and Kings, the rest are starting to get out of reach.

    We are battling the Spurs, Kings and Clips for playoff position and they all have an easier schedule the rest of the season.

    Can we stop saying games in Oct/Nov don’t matter? If we won a few of those winnable games there, we wouldn’t be in this mess right now. Orl, NY, Cavs, etc, loses are gonna haunt us.

    If we don’t make it to the playoffs, then we didn’t deserve to be there.

    Either way, this is really a developmental year. That’s what it was always going to be.

    This is really another s***ty year so far , let's call it like it is .

    I would argue last season was , at times, more enjoyable.

    Hopefully it will be more enjoyable after the ASG break

    terrible for PR, recruiting purposes, but our pick would jump about 4-5 slots if we miss the playoffs. WHICH QUALIFIES IT AS PART OF A TREASURE CHEST!

    NY and Cavs weren't played in Oct/Nov though .

    Only one ( at home against Orlando) of the 7 unexpected losses came in Oct/Nov.

    BK , NY, Cavs , Memphis , Sota and Indiana came later in the season

    Ha ha, but of course we can’t take advantage. Looks like the Kings are gonna take that 8th spot unless they suffer some injury issues or something.

    Can we at least get J. Timberlake in the process of not making the playoffs?

    How we end this month can be a huge factor. We should go 4-0, 3-1 at worse with the lost being a healthy Rockets team. We have Pelicans twice and Grizzlies once after that, games we shoild absolutely win but we all know how thats been going.

    Lakers 9th toughest schedule remaining...Dallas is right behind us with the 10th toughest. While the Wolves have it the worst with the 5th toughest remaining schedule.

    While Utah has the 2nd easiest...cLips 8th easiest...Sac 10th easiest...SA 12th easiest.

    This'll be LeBron's first game since the beast-mode activation. A good test of where he's at and what he can do against a healthy playoff team.
