Stephen A was talking today ( and I don't normally listen to him) and he actually made a good point. He said at this point there are only a couple of teams that could even entertain the idea of beating the Heat in a 7 game series and/or being competitive. One was the Spurs, one was the Grizz and I believe he said the other was the Pacers if they got all the way healthy. I agree pretty much with that. I don't think OKC is nearly as good as they were last year, and obviously Harden is a big part of that, but they seem weaker in other areas too. Obviously with Durant and Westbrook they can beat anybody on any night, but in a 7 games series I like 3 or 4 teams in the West over them.
Spurs could be in trouble with the Parker injury though, be interesting to see how he comes back from that.
Grizz are looking pretty good, even though I am a total homer even I have been surprised at how well they have played since the Rudy trade. The scheudle has been pretty kind, lots of home games, lots of shitty teams, but still, we have looked pretty good. I worry about fatigue a bit. We have to get Zbo and Marc more rest down the stretch, but if we are jostling for the 4th seed we won't have a ton of time to do that and drop some stupid games, plus Hollins seems the type to not know how to rest people at all.
No way Pau gets amnestied. He might very well get traded, lots of suckers out there. (looking at you boy wonder colangelo, why not reunite Rudy and Pau!!!!, lots of fans in memphis would love to see that LOL)
