I think Washington is very content to land in the 7 seed. Injured Celtics in the first round. Then probably Philly in the second round and the Sixers might not be ready to win just yet.

If wiz lose, bucks can take 7th. First round against the Raptors, no way they want that.

That's the reason I don't buy "tanking" for playoff seeding. You better be positive you can win and lose exactly the games you need to in order to get your desired outcome.

Boston or Toronto is a far better alternative than the Cavs. I’d just blow the rest of the games if it keeps us from getting 6th. Cavs will sweep them. Wiz can beat injury Boston or choking Raps.

If Rondo didn’t go down, these Bulls would be the East favorites right now. LeBron got lucky again.

Are Bird and Allen eligible for the playoffs?

Has nothing to do with this game, but I do think Bird could end up being a rotational player. Good size, fantastic athlete, and can shoot. Should be able to become a good defender at least.

Against the Wizards....



I hear you but still it's happened all season with so many teams I cant count. we have done it quite a few times ourselves. early lead usually means the team behind will win.


I kinda get what you are saying but did you see my post in the All around NBA thread? LeBron has NEVER come back from 16+ Down with 6 min remaining in his career! Aberration....

Yikes.

Team is going to be awfully thin. Wonder if there's an exception that can be applied for...
