We're hoping Portland stays ahead of Dallas in the standings and I watched the Clippers beat the Blazers at the buzzer the other night and couldn't believe how many late blown calls went against Portland.  The league admitted it too:

Report mentions five missed calls in the last couple of minutes - four of which went against Portland.  

In addition the the three specifically that favored LA in the final 45 seconds that were described in the article, click here to see the league's report.  There is video of every play in the last two minuites:

And then click the link below to see Jamal Crawford be in the lane on defense for a full TEN SECONDS right in front of the ref from 1:51 to 1:41 with Portland leading 88-84 and no technical foul was called.  Amazing that the ref ignored it:

Hope this fiasco doesn't cost us a draft position with the Mav's pick.  Thankfully, Portland won again tonight to move two games ahead of Dallas (one game in the loss column) but they had to struggle to beat a feisty Sixer team.  

And with Utah beating Minnesota on the road tonight (after the T-Wolves pretty much dealt a death blow to Washington's playoff hopes by knocking off the Wizards on their home court last night), for the FIRST TIME THIS SEASON Dallas is a lottery team, now in ninth place, a half game behind the Jazz, giving us a second lottery pick in June. If that holds up of course...
