Mojo we still have a chance bro...the Kings lost to the Suns there is still hope!
7.Lakers 42-37 (Portland, Suns, Hornets)
8.Kings 41-38 (AT Denver, Hornets, Sonics)
---------------
9.Jazz 38-39
10.Hornets 37-40
Jazz remaining games:
Wed.-Denver
Fri.-AT Hornets
Sun.-AT Dallas
Mon.-AT Spurs
Wed.-Warriors
If we win out we might have a chance...I know its impossible for us to win at Dallas and San Antonio (especially back 2 back nights) but both of them will be playing Utah one game to there last of the season so they might pull starters for playoffs? Well I hope so...god please help us get in somehow!
Note-We own tie-breaker vs. Lakers, but Kings own tie breaker vs. us!

Yea man i still have hope in them, somehow im hoping they can pull it out too, but they have to play extremely good to win back to back games in Dallas and San Antonio and also win the rest of their games.

Btw, The Jazz are beating Denver right now, 36-25 with 5:30 min. left in the second quarter.

Hell yeah dude Im watching it! But Im starting to get a bit worried our Coach (Sloan) is giving up on the season...he's putting in some bench players who normally never see time, maybe he's just experimenting I hope.

Note: Camby and Martin are out with injuries.

48-41 Were up at Halftime...

iversons 40 points on 50% shooting and 10 assists help philly beat new jersey. philly will make the playoffs now.

the last time i liked watching basketball was when chicago bulls had Jordan, so tell me how are the bulls doing?

after years of horrible drafting and moronic coaches (for drafting see Eddy Curry, for coach look up tim floyd) they have put together a young exciting team FULL of talent. Alll they need is a good big man and they can easily contest for the title in 2-3 years time.

nyc, the number one reason knicks suck is cuz that they have 35 small forwards and shooting guards and no true point guard (if u think stephon marbury is a true piont guard, pleases stop living) and no really good center (some say Frye can be one, i say he needs to bulk up if he wants to be a center).

my beloved celts are still rebuilding, but with tony allen showing glimpses of genius, and peirce playing like peirce; we (with a good pick, god willing) can do some damage next year.

steve nash is mvp. no question about it.

Huh? If you watched NBA this season you would know that there is no clear MVP who stands out...but I guess Nash is a possibility.

DAMN! the raptors (27-53) just beat the best team in the NBA- Detroit 108-103. mike james (best candidate for most improved player) scored 39 points with 6 assists.

Well its probably because the Pistons already clinched the best record in the NBA and there's no real reason for them to want to win anymore.

Congratz on the win, but the starters for the pistons only played 20-23 min. and they did not want to risk any injuries for the playoffs.

No offence but if Detroit really wanted to play, they would have killed the raptors!

Btw, im going to Toronto this weekend.

Congratz on the win, now all they have to do is win the rest of their games. Im hoping some kind of miracle happens so you guys can get into the playoffs.

Hopefully it will happen!

Candidates for most improved players:

Boris Diaw - Phoenix Suns
Mike James - Toronto Raptors
Mehmet Okur - Utah Jazz
Gerald Wallace - Charlotte Bobcats
David West - New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets

I predict that James will take this award. Even though the Raptors have been struggling this year, this guy has been unbelievable for them. 20.4 points and 6 assists Per game!!
