Will they make it?

So I start off by asking will the Warriors hold strong and make the playoffs. My answer is that they will. Maybe because I am a huge fan, but also I truly believe they will make them. The last two nights they played two games against the same team, the Los Angeles Lakers. They split the games and the Warriors one in LA for the first time since 2003. They played really well both games and definitely sent a message to the rest of the league that they can compete with the top. The game they won Stephen Jackson hit two clutch three pointers to seal the deal. The next night was just as much of a nail biter as the night before. The game came down to the wire and none of the Warrior fans were happy with the outcome. The team was down by two points and the out of bounds play was set up. People started moving and people fell and the next thing you heard was a whistle. The call was against the Warriors and the stands had an outcry of "Boos!!" I couldn't believe the referee did that. He ruined the game for the fans, the players, and the coaches. It was an unnecessary call that ultimately lost the game for the Warriors. What should have happened was there shouldn't have been a whistle and the game should have been decided by the players, but that didn't happen and the Warriors lost, now barely hanging on to the eighth playoff spot. So I ask you again will the Warriors prevail and make the playoffs? Wait and see because there is merely a couple weeks left in the season. It is going to be so exciting!

Seriously that was a bad call...
The W's should have won that one.
I really hope they dont have to play the Lakers in a series if LA has Bynum and Gasol back at the same time...........
