Of course they care about seedings. We've had the #1 seed 3 years in a row in our conference, and 2 of 3 years in the NBA Finals.
If Dallas and San Antonio get the top 2 seeds (which I'm guessing they will), then that means we'll have to go through both of them to get to the Finals. Of course if Boston has HCA in the Finals then that makes it that much more difficult.
This team is looking mentally weak as hell this year, and I seriously doubt we have what it takes to overcome those kind of odds. I guess we'll find out what we're made of soon enough. Our schedule gets brutal starting in the middle of January, so we better get **** worked out by then or we could be looking at a lower seed and not have HCA period.
