Who we rooting for tonight?

[Context]

They have a brutal month in April. 12 play-off teams out of 15

[Context]

What about tomorrow night? Boston vs Philly. If Boston wins, they lead the division I believe.

Yes they will by 1/2 a game

The right team won tonight

Don't like seeing Boston win ever but this is definitely the better result. If we play really well, and Boston hits the skids, we can perhaps surpass them. Boston has a lot of hard games left to choke on.

The main thing is to secure the 8th spot from Milwaukee and break their momentum.

Mission accomplished.

Now ... who do we root for in Boston v. Philadelphia tomorrow night?

I don't know people look at the loss column as more important than the win column. It's harder to win, you don't even have to show up to lose. If you have even number of wins but a game or two in hand it's better than having even number of losses and a game or two in hand.

well the loss column is more important because if you have less losses than I do, there is nothing I can do to ever catch you without you losing of course..

but if all you have are more wins and I still have my share of games remaining, then all I have to do is win... I have control... but if you have less losses, I can't do anything to take a loss out of the column.. I can only add wins...

It was a win/win tonight, can't go wrong with either team losing.

The right team won tonight

The right team won if you want to make the playoffs but they didn't if you want to win the division. If we take care of business we will get into the playoffs regardless but we can't have Boston and/or Philly keep winning if we want to win the division. Their loses in the long term are a lot more important than Milwaukee's. The 7th and 8th seeds are borderline death sentence.

Not surprised Bucks lost. They look like fool's gold to me, they beat a bunch of lottery teams in their streak. I don't think they have a chance against any playoff team tbh, and would be a waste of a playoff slot if they get in over the Celtics/Knicks.

Boston. They have a harder schedule and we're still about the same games back of both Boston/Philly but Boston is .5 behind Philly and they have a MUCH MUCH harder schedule so it would make it easier for us to catch up to them.

boston will be fine. they are veterans and they've been here before. i see sixers slipping.

i bet final 8th spot will either be bucks or sixers.

I mentioned this earlier in the thread. I have a feeling that the sixers will lose the next two games and go into a downward spiral...
