Worried about the Indiana and Denver games. Indiana will want payback and Denver has looked solid lately. It would be nice to pull at least one game away from the Knicks though.

We better beat Indiana though. I just went through that game GIF-ing up Hansbrough. The guy's a tool, the amount of dirty plays he has is unbelievable. I GIF'd two so I could fuel a little hate the next time we play them but really I could have made 10. Ridiculous.

What about Sixers and Pistons, they are still above us...
otoh, if we are really a playoff team, we must win those tough games against Indy, Denver and Milwaukee

I want to believe

The problem is philly, they have a very winnable set of games coming up.

I'm just focusing on the 8th seed team. If we do well in those 10 games, we should have a good chance of passing Detroit + Philly as well

Our road record is abysmal.

Our road record is abysmal.

Well its got to improve for us to have a chance right?

We basically have to go 26 - 5 the rest of the way to have a chance of making the playoffs. Crazy.

Current 8th seed
2012: Milwaukee / .510 / 25-24 (Projected ~42-40)

8th seed records over the last 5 years in the East
2011: Philly / .530 / 43-39 (35-31 actual)
2010: Indiana / .451/ 37-45
2009: Chicago / .500/ 41-41
2008: Detroit / .476 / 39-43
2007: Atlanta / .451 / 37-45

Roughly 39 wins on average
Raptors are 19-32

Need to go 20-11 in our next 31 games to meet that 39 win mark.

18 games remain vs +.500 teams, 13 vs -.500 teams

It's possible!

If we weren't screwed out of 4 games by reffing we'd be at 23-28, and need to go just 16-15 to make 39 wins

thats way off imo

Considering playoff bound in the East has generally been hovering around 0.400 we wouldn't have ''too'' much trouble going there but we would need to hope other teams go on losing streaks and we get on a winning streak or two. That said, I do not want this team to reach the Playoffs this year. We don't nearly have enough pieces to win, if we make it, it would secure BC a job without him earning it, causing an early sweep by Lebron and the Miami Heat...

Milwaukee is not a playoff team and I think we deserve the 8th seed over them, regardless of record

[Big Shot]

22-9 for the remaining season to be .500......no way.
