Knicks about to lose should move us back to 4.

We really have a shot at the 3rd seed

Yes, Cavs schedule gets tough.

We now have the 4th seed to ourselves. Half a game up on the Knicks (we own the tiebreaker) and only 1.5 games behind the Cavs (Cavs tiebreaker is still undetermined but winning our division gives us the tiebreaker). Just keep winning!

I just want us to get home court.

The fans deserve more playoff home games.

Eveb if we don’t make it out alive at least give something to the fans.

4th seed....

I missed that the Bucks played the Nets today..but even with a Bucks win, we are closer to 2nd seed than the 7th seed (!!!!!!)

#3 seed would be awesome on paper, but I don't want to play IND at all. They just match up well against us. I'd rather play NYK or CLE.

I feel the exact opposite lol, rather play Indy than any of the top 8 teams to be honest. Anyway all of the top 8 is in flux right now.

I feel like we were a tired team when we played Indiana the last time. Also, I think Goga matches up better with Turner.

I feel like we ware going to be underdogs against anyone but Indiana, of course injuries can change the picture a lot - there are plenty of absentees for the teams around us and that will probably change in playoffs. btw i cant imagine boston dreaming of playing as a 1st seed against miami or philadephia with recovered embiid.

Tonights Games of Significance

Pelicans @ Heat
Cavs @ Wolves
Pacers @ Warriors
Sixers @ Lakers

Each game could go either way, so hoping for a good day!

Residual-Heat · Post #54 » by **Residual-Heat** » Fri Mar 22, 2024 8:24 pm

Cavs missing Mitchell and maybe mobley

Warriors need to start winning or they might fall out of the play ins as Houston is on a 7 game win-streak. Same for the Lakers.

Pelicans will want revenge on the Heat

Yeah, I want either the knicks or Pacers in the first round. That is the best shot at a series win for the Magic.

It looks more like Miami is going to get up to 6th.
