I don't think you do understand lol.

It'll probably be easier for you to understand at season's end. So let's bring this back up then. :P

no i clearly do just cause its ur opinion doesn't mean ur right...i have brought up schedules...the fact that i want the bucks to end there win streak....so i believe im right.

but if the knicks continue there hot play and dominate the rest of there games whatever phili, boston, or milwaukee does really doesn't matter

I still don't know who we should root for... Boston is up by 7 right now but if they win they'll continue to have a lead with the 7th seed. If Bucks win they inch that much closer to us.

Another thing to take into consideration is Boston has a tough April schedule so we shouldn't really be that focused on this one game in March. Bucks have a so-so record for the rest of the year so they could have a good chance at coming back.

Just some food for thought.

i think the celtics chance of winning tomorrow is like 10%....back to back on the road both games.

celtics are old
sixers are young and will press them
sixers are mad after last night

Def rooting for Boston. We're trying to reach Philly anyway so what does it matter if Boston is an extra half a game higher than us. We do have to worry about the Bucks taking our spot though. If they lose tonight and we beat them in a few days, we should be good. Also Boston has a ridiculously difficult schedule ahead of them. They'll be put down anyway.

We should root for Boston. They will eventually implode. The Bucks need to be stopped.

You should take your own advice. Like I said, we'll see at the end of the season. I'm clearly not going to convince you one way or the other so we'll see at the end of the season.

We HAVE to win this division. That's the idea here. It's a must. Boston and Philly are like 1 game away from each other. Win the division or bust. So the more games either of these teams lose, the better. The goal is to win this division and avoid seeing Chicago or Miami in the 1st round, which has absolutely nothing to do with Milwaukee. We just have to win our division.

This is a pretty cool topic. It's absolutely pointless in every way, but both sides have their points.

boston isn't winning the division!

if it was the sixers vs the bucks u would have a much more valid point!

and ur also saying its 4th seed or bust?

so u would rather miss out on the playoffs rather than playing the bulls!???

we can beat the bulls

Yea after thinking about it now, we should root for Boston. I think we all agree that Milly needs to be stopped.

You can't know that and if that's what your argument is based around, it's not a very good argument. Remember, you can't really use the "strength of schedule" to end the season because most great teams tend to start giving their best players rest to end the season.

If Boston wins this game and the next vs. Philly, they'll have a half-game lead for the Atlantic.

They're a veteran team. What if they win all those games and wins the division? And teams do rest players on back-to-backs. They'll probably do that more often as the season winds down. We want the team to win the division. That's the goal. Being the 7th or 8th seed in this conference is like not being in the playoffs at all.

They're capable of winning every game is what I meant. That's why I'm rooting against them. Milwaukee's playing above expectations. They'll eventually come back down to earth. I'm not worried about them. Winning this division is what matters.
