There's something fishy going on with that #3 seed.

We’ll see if NY throws their last two games and Indy can pass them. Would prefer NY in the second round by a wide margin

Looks like NY's going to be the 3rd seed and Detroit will be the 6th seed.

Games after today, for the eastern conference, will be meaningless games.

Knicks are 0-10 against the top 3 teams in the league. Congrats to everyone involved!

They have a single win against teams with a better record than them.

Triple double season for Jokic. Just the 3rd player to do so.

I always assumed this would never be done after Oscar. Blows my mind that it’s been done 5 times now, and twice with 30ppg as part of it.

No wonder I get crushed by these asshats in fantasy

These guys have a total of one championship between them.

There are three guys on that list, two NBA champions and Russell Westbrook. Not sure this tells us much besides Robertson and Jokic being awesome at basketball and Westbrook being awesome at stat padding.

After all the hype they had in the offseason, this stay is so so sweet.

The Cavs rested their starters for two of those Pacers losses. The other loss was today's meaningless game where both teams rested starters.

Having said that, the Pacers can be a handful.
