If these scores hold (PHI over ORL, CLE over IND, MIA over TOR), 76ers are very likely avoiding the play-in and it might be possible the Heat do too.
Pacers/Cavs is down to 3 after 3. Should be a great 4th quarter.If these scores hold (PHI over ORL, CLE over IND, MIA over TOR), 76ers are very likely avoiding the play-in and it might be possible the Heat do too.
You mean 2/3/6/7 ~Knicks/Bucks/Sixers/Heat being in play? With Celts/Cavs/Pacers/Magic on the other side?Tonight’s results are perfect for Boston.

Bucks will also be playing for the 2 seed now, so they have something to play for against Orlando. No Giannis, though.If Magic lose their next two games (including 7-8 play-in) and everyone else wins their remaining games (including Miami 7-8 play-in), it would be exactly this.
He should have come back "home" to OKC.....Man, Durant really fucked up the tail end of his career, didn’t he?
I’m showing Sixers as 6 seed now. But a lot is going to happen Sunday. I think we want Orlando to win, Sixers to win, Heat to win, and Indy to lose.Actually I think I'm wrong, because a 3-team tiebreaker (ORL, IND, PHI would be all 46-35) starts with any division winner, which would be Orlando.... theN Pacers won head to head against the 76ers...
... so 76ers would still be the 7 seed
This isn’t correct, if MIL/NY/CLE all tie, NY is 4th.Knicks are locked into the other side now with the Bucks (we can’t play both), and Sixers have a real shot of avoiding the play in. If we could get Sixers 6 and Knicks 3rd, that would be my ideal scenario.
Both NBA.com and ESPN have Philly as the 7th seed. There was a brief moment between Philly winning and Indy losing where it was Philly 6 and Orlando 7, but that flipped after the Pacers lost. Crazy stuff.I’m showing Sixers as 6 seed now. But a lot is going to happen Sunday. I think we want Orlando to win, Sixers to win, Heat to win, and Indy to lose.
This is crazy.
Its a competitive league. I love itThis is crazy.
The sturm and drang from folks about the Celtics losing a game they didn't care about to a hungry Knicks team blows my mind when you see shit like this happen. Nuggets wanted that game and blew a 23-point lead! Sometimes in the NBA the other team hits a fuckton of 3s and you lose even when you shoot 50% and only turn the ball over 7 times and put up 31 assists.
Who holds the tiebreaker if MIL and CLE are tied at 49-33? (And NYK is 50-32)This isn’t correct, if MIL/NY/CLE all tie, NY is 4th.

Huerter and Monk got injured.Why have the Kings fallen off the cliff?
I thought Fox and Sabonis were a dynamic duo.
Shocking how things always work out for them.Warriors and Kings both lose, and the Lakers now stand alone in the 8th spot. Not a shocking result given today's matchups (Lakers were playing the Grizzlies who have been on vacation for 3 months while GS/SAC played teams fighting for their playoff lives), but incredible considering a few hours ago the Lakers were staring down the barrel of needing to win two straight road games, for the pleasure of playing the Nuggets in Round 1. Amazing day for the Lakers.
I mean, so be it - if they take any of those teams out, they'll have done us a big favor.Shocking how things always work out for them.
And now they’ll get the Thunder while avoiding Wolves and Nuggets. Damnit.
