The 2 games at the end of the season against the Bucks will be interesting if we're within 2 games of them

Another western conference team letting us down at home. Clipper down kinda big early to the 76ers...

Gotta hope the Lakers & okc take care of busy now. And idk who to go for in the heat vs cavs game...

Well... the Clips failed us.

Anyhoo... who we rooting for? Cavs or Heat?

Im leaning towards Cavs.. the lower MIA is the safer we are out of the playin

I just dont trust the cavs. If they play the Heat in the first round they gonna beat the cavs in my opinion. Heat gotta face bucks or Celtics to lose in that first round. Aby other team there is a big chance they beat any of the other teams in the first round.

Last week I wouldve been rooting for Cavs but think Im shifting to rooting for Heat.

Thanks for nothing Clippers

This is why I hate hyper focusing on these games with these threads.. watch nothing go our way the next few days and we get in the play in lol

I still think we end up either 4th or 5th and play the Cavs regardless. The Knicks will continue winning and take the 3rd seed.

I think this is most realistic too but still anything can happen. We have to shoot for homecourt advantage.

Btw if we play either Indiana or Cleveland, Im telling you right now that entire series will be on NBATV :lol:

Heat are almost up 40 pts...wow.

RookieStar · Post #95 » by **RookieStar** » Mon Mar 25, 2024 12:17 am

Soooo... im worried MIA can catch up to us and puah us down to the playins. Then again, pushing CAVS down so we have a realistic chance to face them 4-5 is kinda intriguing...

3ddman23 · Post #96 » by **3ddman23** » Mon Mar 25, 2024 12:26 am

Bucks up 10 on okc in the 3rd. This may shape up to be a crap night for us.

We absolutely need to beat GSW becasue I don't see us beating the clippers.

We should be cheering for the Bucks. They have like 4 easy games down the stretch and we should want them to rest against us the last games. We're not getting 2nd.

We are 3 games ahead of the heat. If they push us down than thats on us.

Agreed. I want BOS MIL in that 1-2 spot. So they can beat MIA or PHI with Embiid.

But MIA has the easiest scheudle left of all 30teams right? Just worried we get leapfrogged.
