Re: 40: A MyNBA Universe

3/1/84
  • The Pistons (48-10, 11-game win streak) and Celtics (45-13) have clinched in the East, with Philadelphia (40-18) being the only team in the same league. New Jersey and Milwaukee both share 31-28 records, with the Hawks at 28-32 and Chicago (22-35), New York (21-38), Washington (20-39) and Cleveland (18-39) all fighting for the last two spots. Indiana is starting to fall out of the hunt with a 14-44 mark.
  • In the West, Utah (42-18) and Los Angeles (34-24) are on top of their respective divisions, with Portland and Phoenix both only one game back of the latter. The Spurs (39-22) are the only close competition for Utah. The Kings (16-41) still post the worst record in the conference.
  • The Bill Walton trade is starting to backfire for the 22-37 Clippers. James Donaldson (Walton's replacement at the 5) and SF Anthony Roberts (who was acquired in said trade) are both lost for the season with Achilles injuries. Ricky Sobers of Washington, Sidney Lowe of Indiana, Johnny Moore of the Spurs, All-Star Milwaukee guard Sidney Moncrief, Denver's Danny Schayes, and Dallas center Kurt Nimphius are also newly sidelined with multi-week injuries.
