We gotta get at least the 5 seed. I know we can beat Atlanta or New York.

In the battle of teams that have underperformed this year, one team cared while the other didn't 90% of the game. Props to your team. Jimmy is a god

Hawks 2-1 with Miami
Knicks 3-0 over Hawks
Miami 3-0 over Knicks

Knicks are 3-3
Hawks are 2-4
Heat are 4-2

We are all Clippers fans now!

Not that this matters, but I think the Hawks would remain in 4th for now because the two-way tie between Miami and Atlanta for the Southeast Division lead would be broken first (with Atlanta winning), and the Hawks, as the only division winner among MIA/NYK/ATL, would win the tie for the 4th seed.

you were right:

In the event two or more teams are tied in the standings, a series of tiebreakers are applied to determine which team receives the higher seeding.

Two-Team Tiebreaker:
1. Better record in head-to-head games
2. Division winner (this criterion is applied regardless of whether the tied teams are in the same division)
3. Higher winning percentage within division (if teams are in the same division)
4. Higher winning percentage in conference games
5. Higher winning percentage against playoff teams in own conference
6. Higher winning percentage against playoff teams in opposite conference
7. Higher point differential between points scored and points allowed
Three-Team Tiebreaker:
1. Division winner (this criterion is applied regardless of whether the tied teams are in the same division)
2. Best head-to-head winning percentage among all teams tied
3. Highest winning percentage within division (if teams are in the same division)
4. Highest winning percentage in conference games
5. Highest winning percentage against playoff teams in own conference
6. Highest point differential between points scored and points allowed

Ideally we get the Knicks rather than the Hawks if we do slide into that 4-5

I've never wanted to punch someone in the face so badly. Really hoping to run into him at a game one day. I won't hesitate.

So 5-10 useless minutes will make you feel better? :lol:

We only have 1 home game left ... on the 13th vs the 76ers. I imagine we start him so he can be introduced and get all the love ... and then get the hell off the court asap. :lol:

There's no point in playing him on the road.

Win next game the Heat can rest players if needed and give the young players some run. Im sure 76ers and Bucks will be resting their stars.
