They are nowhere near the team that went 35-6 or whatever to start the year. Toughest part for Indiana might be making the playoffs, and doing it without getting the 7 seed
    George did not look very good the first game but i still like the bet

    Thunder falling apart eventually guys get tired of playing with a guy like Westbrook because he dominates the ball too much and the team loses

    Golden State talked trash calling the game a scrimmage. Still don't think they are letting up?

    If you guys like conspiracy, OKC may get help by the refs...
    Remember when Lakers got 8th seed, i think 2/3 years ago ?

    I doubt the league really cares whether OKC gets in or not now that they don't have Durant for sure. The Lakers only lost Kobe with 2 or 3 games left.

    Remember that was under Stern too.

    I disagree (a little)
    I think the suits on Park Ave. want to push OKC, being Westbrook is one of their darlings.
    I'd personally love to see the Peli's and AD
    Plus, Ty Evans is turning into one of my favorite guards to watch, guy can score.

    Pelicans-10 win(@Minny) and Thunder loss(Portland) potentially without Westbrook end it tomorrow. Amazing.

    Thunder get a mulligan with Westbrook technical rescinded. Pelicans need to take care of business tonight because the hottest team in basketball is lurking Wednesday night.

    Agreed...Westbrook is box office material as far as the league is concerned..I am sure they would prefer him in the playoffs...Davis is a great but not the draw that westbrook is....two mvp candidates in curry and Russ in the opening round...? Silver ain't stupid..look who his predecessor was...lol

    Pelicans win and they are in. Except they play the spurs.

    Looks like Pelicans will get in as the 8th seed.

    That is some genius analysis there. Smart guy
