作者: catbert    時間: 2005-3-19 11:14 AM     標題: Which teams will make/miss the NBA playoff this year?

With less than 20 games remaining for all the teams, which of the following teams do you think will make/miss the NBA playoff this year?

Eastern Conference
- Chicago Bulls
- Indiana Pacers
- Philadelphia 76ers
- Orlando Magic
- New Jersey Nets

Western Conference
- Memphis Grizzlies
- Denver Nuggets
- Minnesota Timberwolves
- LA Lakers
- LA Clippers

Apparently, I didn't list out all the teams.  You are welcome to throw in those I didn't include if you think they will make or miss the playoff.  Of course, there is no point to discuss the obvious. (e.g. Miami Heat will make the playoff)  

This post is meant to initate some discussions (hopefully).  I will express my humble opinions a bit later.

Nets ( because of Carter.........its tough but)
76ers ( give AI and Webber a chance please)
Magic ( give Hill a chance too........)

西
我覺得係 3 隊爭第 8...... Grizzlies 已經好安全....
Nuggets Wolves and Lakers
so.....
Nuggets.......
because Kobe is only Kobe....不是神
Wolves........KG is only KG....不是神
Nuggets...... 雖然我好 melo而佢地又要對 spurs suns 等等既勁隊......不過個堆勁隊真係會出盡 100% 實力?
so Melo+K-MART+Miller ( and BOYKINS!!)

East

76ers - window is clossing for AI and webber, but they should be able to mesh. change the offensive set for Webber!!

Chicago - they're a dangerous team if Scott Skiles' attitude can translate into the youngster's mind.

Pacers - the team is falling apart, but I wish they can hold on to the 8th seed. it's just wrong for Miller to end his career without one more run in the post season. Talking about sht happens...

WEST

kyleung is right... the Grizzlies should be very very save and the nuggets are hot. But I *wish* that the Lakers can make it so that they'll be raped 4-0 the way the girl got raped from behind

East,
Miss out 76ers, NJ and Orlando

Poor 76ers, they miss Iverson nowadays, and as I told in here before, seems the chemistry between Chris Webber and AI is not working.
NJ, no power forward/Center in this team

Orlando,... sorry guys... a silly trade in early year (Mobley for Christie)
then kill the team chemistry and missing a shooter.......
so.... may be missing playoff is good for them as they could draft a shooter.....

West,
LA Lakers.... after Rudy T. was retired, the team is getting worst and worst, Kobe handles too much pocession, and he shoots too many balls.
Clippers... missing Jaric means missing the playoffs, no one expect they could play that well this year...!! they could have a bright future if the owner keeps all of these players, again, Mike Dunlevary Sr. shows he's one of the greatest coaches in NBA.
T'wolves... sorry everyone, like Lakers, Twolves are really struggling in the team chemistry.. they couldn't help themselves.....................

I am not so sure whether Grizzlies can actually secure a playoff spot at this moment, that's why I put them in the list.  Look at their remaining schedule and it's brutal.  Their schedule is the tougest among the four teams (see attachment.  I already assumed LA Clippers has no chance, sorry Clippers fans).  That's why I think Grizzlies still might miss the playoff - say if Timberwolves miraculously win all of their remaining games.

Personally, I think both LA Lakers and LA Clippers are not going to make the playoff.  So Grizzlies, Nuggets and Timberwolves will compete for the last two spots.  By looking at the current momentum and team chemistry of the three teams, it seems that, unfortunately, Timberwolves are going to miss the playoff this year.  However, mathematically, they still have a chance.

Just my humble opinion ...

think deeply about the Grizzlies, if you know who is the Czar, and how deep for this team, I believe they could be ok
sometimes a good coach can change everything....

Look at the score for Grizzlies, if they don't play well on offense that night, oppoent will score in really low pts, due to the defensive specialist for Czar.. i.e. they could win in a really low-scoring games
so I believe they could do it no matters what's happened
I know many people are T'wolves or Lakers or Denver fans... so... they may have some dream in there
KG, Melo, Kobe.... all-stars level.....
but team spirit will let Grizzlers to go through

Pacers up 1/2 game; Lakers down 1/2 game.

Miller said "KABAAM!"

ORL's Francis got suspended indefinitely...

No, I am not saying that Memphis will miss the playoff.  All I am saying is Memphis are not as safe as it seems.  Actually, I think Denver will be the No.7 seed and Memphis and Minnesota will compete for the last seed towards the end of the season.  

Just my humble opinion ...

em.. T wolves is 34-34, Memphis is 38-28, Denver is 35-30, it's really hard to T'wolves to catch up in this moment.... em.... just 12 games left for Twolves.....

It's really hard to say since it's quite complicated in this season...
But I hope that the Bobcats, the youngest NBA team, will make it (but I don't think it's possible)
作者: brightlee    時間: 2005-3-22 11:32 AM

Bobcats?
I think they should wait about 5 years.....

too young for this team....
作者: kyleung    時間: 2005-3-22 11:40 AM

hey i just want to see Grizzlies vs Suns
Fratello tried to use J-Will Wells Mike Posey Gasol as starter to play against Suns @ their second games(or first) this season (finally they lost by 8 )
i think this will be funny
作者: brightlee    時間: 2005-3-22 11:43 AM

and remember they don't have Swift in this moment.....

losing 2 big men for most of the season in  Grizzlies.... poor them....
