We've all but locked up 3rd. If Utah beats the Magic we can pencil in a 1st round series against Orlando.

Told the Sixers I like their game thread(they had funny nicknames for players from both teams) and wished them luck tonight. Their mod deleted my post. :( lol

Oh well. Hopefully we're good for another win. 7 wins in a row, let it ride!

I feel like these refs aren't going to be liked by Pacer fans.

That was a tough run a few minutes back...something like 3 straight trips down and 3 straight turnovers.

Making it up in a little spurt right now. George is playing well defensively. We just have to stick someone on Brand and keep him off the elbow and draining that J.

Love big Roy laying out for the loose ball. Sucks we couldn't do anything with it.

Granted I came in during the 3rd quarter but I've seen some horrendous calls!

Poorly officiated game but we had our chances.

Great game by David West. A bad shooting night for Danny.

Anybody know who Doug Collins was woofing at while leaving the court? My guess is a heckling fan. Just curious.

we need a Pacer win or an Atlanta loss to lock up 3rd. I think Orlando needs a win or a NY loss to lock up 6th. CBS Sports puts it:

East No.6 seed: New York's loss to Cleveland means the Magic's magic number is down to one. So they [Orlando] almost definitely will be getting swept by Indiana instead of Miami. So they've got that going for them.

looks like Orlando may have a mathematical chance to get the 5 still but without knowing the tiebreaker I can't figure the magic number and CBS didn't give it.

today, ATL lost by 1 to NY,
and ORL lost big to DEN.

both teams have 4 games
to go as IND. so, do we have
a lock on #3 already?

And now it's up to Orlando to not blow its two-game cushion for 6th and we'll have a first round that nobody outside of Indiana or Orlando wants to watch.

Yeah, but our second round will get a lot of attention :)

1 or 2 games more and the Knicks would have been our opponent. Now a loss against one of the worst teams ever seems highly unlikely, even for the Magic without Dwight.

That's the game Charlotte wants. I wouldn't be shocked if they won.
