I sorta hope the Hawks don't win tonight. It would feel pretty good to drive a stake through the Knicks on Thursday.

Now that they lost they'll probably roll over and lose badly to the Bulls tomorrow.

Plays out perfectly for us. Bulls keep their lead for 3rd in that case.

Washington is worrying me a bit though. Our lead for 5th place is down to 1.5 games, and we've been coasting badly these last 2 games.

If we can't beat the Magic on our homecourt without Livingston, we have much bigger problems than potentially dropping to the 6th seed.

Tomorrows Wiz-Miami game is win-win no matter how you look at it.

If Miami wins, then we'll have the 5th seed locked up. If Washington wins Miami will be a #2 seed and we would miss them in the second round if we were to advance.

Pacers beat OKC today. Magic number to beat out Heat is 1.

[therealbig3]

Chicago down 6 at half time to the Knicks, and the Raptors have already won.

[therealbig3]

Bring on the Bulls. I definitely don't see Toronto losing to the Bucks at home, and I don't think they're going to lose to NY for the 2nd time in a week.

The Bulls could win both of their remaining games too, but Toronto owns the tiebreak.

The Knicks have been playing well, they could pull out another win at home against TOR.

That CHI game at CHA is a tough one.

Most likely we face CHI. Either way I don't mind. It would be nice to get revenge on the Bulls though.

Harden is getting a taste of his own flopping medicine by Gibobli. The homerism by the Rockets announcers is flat out disgusting

[Illmatic21]

Wiz fan here.. wouldn't you guys prefer Toronto over Chicago first round? We'll take the Bulls if you guys don't want em, let us get that 5th seed

We would prefer Toronto but we also would rather face Indiana in the second round.

Wow, can't believe Chris Paul just missed those 2 late FTs.

Yeah, that was a shocker. I really thought the Warriors were gonna choke though. Barnes went 1-2 from the line, then Green went 0-2, and then Klay missed his first one. I thought it was just destined that the Warriors keep bricking their FTs, and then Paul redeems himself with a 3 to send it to OT.

Glad the Warriors won though, they're my 2nd favorite team outside of the Nets. Love Steph Curry.

Bulls interested in trading Boozer before amnestying him. His contract expires after next year.

Lopez for Boozer?

They would just want a salary dump, nothing in return through 3 team trade IMO. I also think we would rather keep Lopez. Thornton and another 3 million in salary from someone else.

I don't think we have the pieces to have the trade make sense, but I wouldn't mind having.

I know it is cool to hate Boozer on this site, but he does positive things.

One of the best in setting screens/picks, solid rebounder, decent defender, toughness. These are things this team needs.
