8th and 7th seed in the EAST

[ALVAREZ6]

Sixers, Cavs, and Nets...

New Jersey and Cleveland both won tonight...so they are tied for 8th seed.

The Sixers are guaranteed the playoffs, they are guaranteed 8th, and if they win vs. Atlanta tomorrow, they will be 7th, and if Indiana loses, they will go down to 7th seed because the Sixers won the series vs. Indiana in this season's games.

This should be interesting, it can change very quickly.

Cleveland and New Jersey both have 1 game left...who will it be?

Will Lebron start his playoffs experience? Will Carter be a litte bitch in the playoffs? We shall see in the after their next games... :smokin

"tied for 8th seed."

They aren't tied:

.... shows NJN with 8 seed, due to tie-breaker of season record, 3-1. NJ has to lose @BOS and Cavs have to win @TOR for Cavs to make the playoffs. Both losing tomorrow, tied, NJN in playoffs.

Cavs sort of mirror the Spurs, much better at home, while quite poor on the road. I think NJN is playing with more confidence, but they will have a tough time @BOS, as will the Cavs.

both teams get lucky to beat heat
but nets have a better chance especially if jefferson comes back

I just hope Indy loses to the Bulls so the sixers can take the 6th seed, as long as Philly beats ATL.
