Why are the Utah Jazz and Sacramento Kings struggling so hard to get that 8th seed?

Boogie is so over-rated. Anybody who watches basketball knows his style of play is not in the least bit conducive to winning basketball. He's a manufactured superstar, just like Harden, and to a much lesser extent, Love. The NBA would be a better league without all 3 of those players.

Rockets are a mess, yet an established team in Utah and a more skilled team in Sacramento are barely making ground to overtake the Rockets with the 8th seed.

Is it Harden killing their chances with his great play?
Is it Boogie & Rondo just being low IQ team killers?
Is it Gordon being overrated?

Do the Rockets have to just start blatantly tanking games on purpose for us to get out the playoff race? I love The Beard, but he's playing too well for a team trying to tank and keep their pick.

what made u think ur team is tanking? i think they are actually trying to win.
