Just gotta keep winning to avoid that scenario. Hopefully Charlotte does suffer another loss before we play them. I like our chances no matter what with the way we are playing.

Well done Magic. Very well done indeed. Everyone came to play and played hard. That was playoff intensity basketball showing up just at the right time. They should all be very proud, and hopefully they bring that to Boston next!

We need a Hornets loss or Magic win to eliminate the Hornets. Then including Miami tonight, 2 games in our favor, either Miami loses or Orlando wins and they're eliminated.

Charlotte magic number- 1
Miami magic number- 2

Also if Boston can beat Indiana tonight, they'll secure the 4th seed and will almost surely start resting their vets to get ready for the playoffs.

Very long time, so long that I don't even jump to conclusions anymore. :wink:

Usually a game like this is followed by a stinker. We can only hope they bring that energy on the road.

Good luck to y'all in the draft. Atlanta has some nice pieces for sure to build around. Gonna be interesting to see how the Hawks put it all together.

That was quite a beat down. Theres good momentum with this team right now. Im sure I stand alone on this but I want Heat and Hornets to keep winning. I want us playing with this kinda must win mantality the rest of the way.

Does anyone have a link to the Isaac spinner dunk? That highlight must not be forgotten.

He has developed into a very valuable NBA player for us this year and is a big reason for our potential playoff birth.

Yep, he really has evolved. And this is his baseline at 23 - can shoot, can handle, can pass, can defend. As he becomes even smarter and more controlled with these parts of his game, he could be a huge glue guy once he hits his prime. Imagine 4.5 more years of developing and polishing his game from here, just how much of an impact he could have at 28.

Shawn Marion was a good comparison it turns out

Tonight we played with a swag and pizzaz I haven't seen in almost 10 years and it was totally deserved.

This is what a playoff team does. Comes out and crushes a team like Atl at home.

Proud of the guys! Let’s keep this going into the playoffs!
