Because they're leading their division, the Sixers would still be third if the playoffs started today. Even if the magic finished with a better record, the division leaders are guaranteed HCA in the first round.the magic would need to win the Southeast or they'dfinish no higher than fourth. Teams get reseeded after the 1st round though, back to win-loss record

You just contradicted yourself by saying we won't be 3rd because sixers win their division and that guarantees HCA. Last I checked HCA is top 4 seed, so if we end up with a better record than them we end up third, while they end up 4th with HCA. The only time your theory applies is when the number 5 seed has a better record than a division winner, in which case the division winner ends up 4th, playing against the 5th seed who had a better record than them.

Also, there is no re-seeding in basketball. I believe hockey that's in hockey.

Whoa. My mind just exploded...

Great 17-0 run to close the game out! I just wished it would have happen sooner. They fall asleep for 3+ quaters. Anyways Hedo turns to Hero again and Dwight scared they crap out of them.

BTW, why didnt Gooden play? Did he have infected nose hairs?

Actually, division leaders are guaranteed 3 of the top 4 seeds; not top 3 seeds. If the Magic hold a better record than the 6'ers when playoffs begin, Magic will be 3rd and Philly takes 4th.

I stand corrected about the division leaders plus the next best record take the top four seeds. I misused the term reseeding. I meant that after the first round HCA is determined by record only not by seed
