I’ve always thought the 1 seed should get super home court advantage. So it would be a 2-2-3 series.
I agree, but the 1& 2 seeds do get that extra week off to get healthy.
But don't 3-6 get that same advantage?

Now that you mention it, I guess they do. 😂

Does anyone else think Simmons was maybe just not in shape and that’s why he hasn’t played? Neither Brooklyn or Ben would’ve benefited from throwing an out of shape Ben on the court.

It's looking like there will be no drama today with the East Play In seeding
Each team is winning so far so probably gonna stay Brooklyn (7) hosting Cleveland (8) and then Atlanta (9) hosting Charlotte (10)

I figure that's a Nets get the 7 seed and Hawks get the 8
Which means Bucks vs Nets in the 1st round :shock: :o

Unless Celtics win tonight, then it’s Celtics-Nets 1st round as Bucks are going to lose.

Celtics have the tiebreaker with Bucks ?
I thought Bucks were sitting everyone caused they locked into the 2 seed

Ya I think I read it goes to the 5th tiebreaker or something, but Celtics have it. Perhaps Bucks don’t really want Brooklyn.

Edit: 4th tie breaker

1. Head to head and they’re tied 2-2
2. Division winner, both won their divisions
3. Conference record, both are 33-19 or will be once Milwaukee loses
4. Record against conference playoff teams…20-13 for Boston, 17-15 for Milwaukee. So Boston wins

Was wondering why Jrue wasn't listed Out with the rest of the starters

I will consider this one of the few times sharing Lakers content isn't a bad thing lol

There's so much going on here now looking back
Really cool gesture by CP3 although we all probably didn't notice back then as most of us might have hated him at that point lol :twisted:

Then I can't get over all the players on the Lakers and where they are now

The Pacers played hard until the end, but were ultimately limited by their own short comings (TJ McConnell).

Even if he had a minor back issue, that likely means he couldn't stay in regular shape, much less game shape.

If Celtics and Philly win, it is a 3-way tie for 2-3-4, right?

So Celts own tie breaker over all and get #2? Bucks beat Philly 2/3 times, so they get #3, then Philly gets #4? Do I have that right?

I’m not sure how it all works out for a 3-way tie, but I did read Milwaukee can’t drop to 4.

It looks like we’ll get Dallas/Utah in our bracket…assuming GS doesn’t blow a 4th Q lead
