Must be true, if it's a rumor you read on Hoopshype.

Raps. Theyve had the hardest schedule thus far of all east teams contending for the third seed.

I gotta go with Toronto. They already went on a 7 game west coast trip where they beat New Orleans and San Antonio. I'm not sure who else from those picks went West yet. Not only did Toronto go West already, they came back, lost to Detroit and Cleveland (who they should've beat), but they're still 3 games over .500 at this point. Orlando was looking good but it seems like the same old story with them which is what I was expecting. I think Jersey will decide too late that they want home court advantage and you never know with Cleveland because LeBron can win games single-handedly.

The Magic started the season with 9 more road games then home games. Our schedule is evening out in a large way.

I like how as soon as the Magic hit a rough spot in the season, everyone begins to count us out. We're still 2 games above the competition, and we have a much easier schedule ahead of us.

^And?

16-8 on the road and I think 7-8 at home. I get your point, but I'd like to see how they take advantage of those home games first.

I'll take the Magic, though. Washington could switch with them.

Magic Lewis will soon start to get more comfortable with the offense and we might deal Hedo for a big I think we will stay 3rd.

It's either going to be the Magic, Cavs, Wiz, or Raps.

IMO they should all be pretty much interchangeable record wise come playoff time. None really stand above as the best of the bunch to me.
