The Nets' win over the Wizards means that we can no longer lose this bet, which increased our current return to $6976, but we need one more Wizard loss to win it.
The Spurs' win over the Rockets means they are now just .5 games behind the Grizzlies. The -3 means that the Grizzlie's magic number is 3 (if I have done my math right). The Grizzlies play the Clippers in LA on the second night of a back-to-back. I'm catiously optimistic about this. Hopefully when the Grizzlies play the Warriors on the 13th, the Warrior's starting five won't be in street clothes.
Dallas must lose two, not one; I did my math wrong. This is a problem because they have a gimme against the Lakers in their last three games. I'm no longer optimistic about this.
The Kings must win out for me to push. Fuck those guys.
Having both Dallas and Memphis win last night by a combined 2 points was pretty demoralizing, but tonight...Go Clippers!
