Right now, AT THIS VERY MOMENT PEOPLE, the Mavericks are playing the Hawks in Atlanta and the Nuggets are playing the Timberwolves in Minny. If the Nuggets win OR the Mavs lose, the Nuggets are the Lakers' first-round opponent. If the Nuggets lose AND the Mavs win, it's a playoff rematch with Dallas. Whom would you rather see in the first round? Don't just sit there muttering ineffectually to yourself about it... vote in our poll and be part of the democratic tradition. DO SOMETHING WITH YOUR LIFE FOR A CHANGE YOUR MOTHER AND I ARE VERY WORRIED.

The Kings have lost 10 of 12, by the way, and one of those wins came against the Bobcats so it doesn't count in the standings.

Give that beer a good home, in your gullet perhaps, whenever someone mentions:

  • The scoring title,
  • Anaheim,
  • Metta World Peace's seven-game suspension,
  • "Regular season finale," or
  • Kevin Johnson.

One game left.
