I just noticed that I, on my shitty ass Stanley Robinson leading team, is only 8 games back from the 8th spot in the Western Conference.
It is going to be so easy to make the playoffs next season, its not going to even be funny.

8 games back is a decent amount back, especially in an 82 game season. Making the playoffs isn't generally an "easy" thing per say it depends on who is tanking. Maybe you just aren't tanking as well as you should. There's a lot of aspects to consider.

Anyway, you're like 160 points back of the 8th seed in winning %. I give you no chance next year. Suns and Kings will need to make it. You won't make the playoffs.

You can also see that the Western Conference is the weaker of the two. I currently have the 7th seed in the playoffs with a record under .500. Every playoff team in the east is .500 or better.

8 games back is a lot of games, and there is still plenty to play.

lakers, mavs, blazers,clippers, nuggets, spurs, all teams that should make the playoffs next year.
leaves two spots.
Jazz, Rockets,Suns, Kings, Twolves competing for the last two spots. You have a shot, but it will be really hard. Two teams need to make the playoffs right? Blue and Scott? I really do not see your team making it.

I have 25M in cap space this offseason if i select to not make any trades the rest of the way. That means two solid free agents to improve my team. Or I can trade some of the capspace I have for decent 3 year contracts and play out a good team next season as well.

Youngsta, you'd be better off not talking about how much you're going to do with that cap space. Unless you steal a max player (rare), you have no roster next year worth anything.

I do not even know who is a FA this year.

Suns and Kings will need to make it. You won't make the playoffs. That's exactly my point the Western Conference is going to be competitive as ever next season. Suns and Kings will be in their contract year. All the top 6 teams in the Western Conference will still be good. I think Pig and Aar will try to win it next season. Other then me really, no one in the Western conference will be tanking. Now you see why I wanted that 2013 so bad and was willing to take on those crap contracts.

I completely think that was a risk worth taking for your team. You're going to suck with or without those contracts. You added another really valuable piece to your future core.
