It's not the schedules fault, we lost to the Lakers and the Magic.

With that said we're lucky that we still control our own destiny. It's not like we have to go into GS and win a game. It's one game winner takes all. We fight and get the 3rd seed or we lose and start the playoffs on the road. It's all on us and we're lucky that we even have the opportunity to determine our own fate.


That's true, but back to back on the road to end the season? Come on. That's the nba saying we don't think you that good. I haven't checked but I'm sure the popular contenders don't have an end like that.

I thought I was the only one who found it a little odd that the Heat close the season with back-to-back road games. Seems to me that that almost never happens.

I looked at tues-wednes to see who would end the season on a back to back

besides us, the

Spurs
Clippers
Grizzlies
Philly
Toronto
Indiana
Pistons

all end their season on a back to back. 8 teams in all

Sucks that we do have this scheduled loss though, the NBA tries to make things interesting and putting a team in a back to back situation against a foe is just asking for us to lose the game.

Interesting. Thanks for looking that up. Did it say how many of those 8 are road-road b2b's?
