Agree to disagree for me for the big picture.
I'm pretty sure there will be ebbs and flows in the standings in the next 30 games...that's why they are very meaningful, IMO.

I think people were probably saying Green's potential >>> Wright's potential, no doubt right now Wright is the better player.

Playing Houston in the first round is having home court. If Utah had not been the 4th seed, they don't advance.
Dallas needs to get in the top 4 if they want to advance.

Barea waived off Dirk to take that shot. That should never happen. Your backup scrub point guard should not be waving off your best player. Whether he makes the shot or not.

They seemed to do alright in a Game 7 in Houston the year before. And last year, Utah won the first 2 games in Houston anyway--they didn't even have HCA, despite their higher seed.
Home court advantage is incredibly overrated in the playoffs, most of the time. The reason you see such a correlation between the team with HCA and the team winning the series is because the team with HCA is usually better.

Why didn't Bass even attempt a shot? Didn't he know how much time was left? Ugh.

The fact that Chicago really doesn't pose a threat in the low post with their centers, I'm not so sure we're going to see Hollins tonight. I have a feeling we'll see Singleton get some decent run tonight.

Ridiculous pass by Terry. Looked like the other Jason.

And two evenly matched teams, home court is extremely important. Just see Utah as the example to that. They suck on the road even though they are just as good as any of the other teams liker Portland, Phx, Houston. Portland is another example of that too. Great at home and poor on the road.
HCA is going to be huge once again this year in the west. It will mean nothing in the East until Cleveland, Boston, Orlando play each other.
