I look forward to the postgame interviews.In that it was a character-building experience.
If the Celtics win by 23+ and the Nets win, the Celtics advance. If the Nets lose, the Celtics need to have a higher point differential than other 3-1 teams that didn’t win their group. If Miami wins a close game, that means beating the Bucks, who currently sit at +39. If the Bucks win, it means beating the Knicks, who sit at +18. Thus, 39 is the magic number for controlling their destiny.Sorry if this is mentioned upthread but I’m confused. If the Celtics win by 23 or more they are in the Quater finals? Or do they need something to happen in the Nets game to advance?
So if the Nets hang on, it takes the H2H loss to Orlando off the table which helps the Celtics. Got it.If the Nets win its head to head to head between Magic, Nets, and Celts, which is a push so it goes to point differential for the group win.
If the Nets lose, Magic win the group via head to head, and Celts have a harder road via the WC point differential.
I think. I’m on my second cocktail.
Knicks are also up 14 right now, so the Celtics path absent a Nets win is going to require something around 40 points and if the Knicks win by 21+ the 39 number above goes up.If the Celtics win by 23+ and the Nets win, the Celtics advance. If the Nets lose, the Celtics need to have a higher point differential than other 3-1 teams that didn’t win their group. If Miami wins a close game, that means beating the Bucks, who currently sit at +39. If the Bucks win, it means beating the Knicks, who sit at +18. Thus, 39 is the magic number for controlling their destiny.
I have no idea how the White foul was a shooting foul. Because he said he was shooting?Lol at giving the Bulls a shooting foul on the other end but calling that a floor foul
I'm the opposite, love this. I'm never going to complain about the Celtics playing too hard.I know the players have every right to demand they try and win the 500k, but as a fan I hope they just let this one go and not go all out.
Paging Steve KornackiIn-Season Tournament Group C reminder: The Celtics need to win by 23 points over the Bulls AND the Nets have to win against the Raptors AND Boston's margin of victory needs to be at least 9 points more than Brooklyn's margin of victory.

After 3: Knicks 80, Hornets 66. As of now, it'll be Knicks at Bucks and Celtics at Pacers in the quarterfinals, but this is going to go right down to the end tonight Current point differentials: Knicks: plus-32 Celtics: plus-30 Magic: plus-22 Cavaliers: plus-18 Nets: plus-12
They’ve got a Dan Flashes out there.I sense Scal really wants the Vegas per diem
This. Math is hard.I need the math to stop, someone just tell me at the end if they did it or not.
Fuck that, I do.Wait. I don't want to win THIS badly.
