NBA Playoffs Thread (non-Magic games discussion)

I'm still worried about Heat and their schedule.
With 11 games remaining, they have 7 home games, if they beat Warriors, they can be on potential 7 games winning streak (Blazers, Wizards, Knicks, 76ers, Houston). Than they play Pacers, than Hawks, Mavs and for the end 2 cakewalks against Raptors, both at home.

We really need to hope that Bucks secure #2 before last two games against us.

The Hawks had a big win, and the Bulls had a tough loss. That brings the Hawks within 2 games of the Bulls. The Bulls have 3 remaining games with NY, and they may play everyone if they don't have the 9th spot clinched.

Orlando's magic number for the 10 seed is still 2 games (as the Hawks own the Magic tie breaker), for Orlando to not be the 10-seed.
Orlando's magic number for the 9 seed is now 3 games for the Bulls.

A reminder, this means any combinations of Magic wins or Hawks/Bulls losses.

I would think that in 2-weeks, the Magic is guaranteed to be no worse than the 8-seed.

A close, draining Warriors win would be ideal.

So far, so good. Can't ever count those zombie Heat out, though.

Theres a thread on GB about Draymond doing Draymond thongs against Patty.

Seriously??? That wasnt a flagrant?? He should be suspended next game which js incidentally against us..

Klay with the dagger

Warriors look sharp, as they should, since they need every win they can get.

Heat look about as inept on offense as the Magic on nights where we can't get anything going.

Sooooo... over under Draymond gonna start ish with our Euro boys?

If we go 6-5 the rest of the way, Miami would have to go 9-1 the rest of the way to tie us and win the division. Tonight's Miami loss was HUGE.

Miami still plays the Knicks, 76ers, and Pacers.
