Re: With WC's 8 seeds separated by 2 L's or more...
what are the chances if the Spurs take the #2 spot?
will it be a better position in the playoffs than the 3rd spot where they are now?
-----------------
i read this article....
The Spurs are playing as well as anyone in the league right now. But they're not concerned about being No. 1. They just want to be No. 2.
When the Spurs host the Hornets on Wednesday, they will be tipping off a stretch of seven of eight at home. If there's ever a time to catch the Suns for the No. 2 playoff seeding in the West, this is it.
The problem is the Spurs have had more than their share of problems at home this season. Among their nine home defeats are inexcusable losses to the Bobcats, Bucks and Celtics.:cry
The Spurs enter this key stretch three games behind the Suns with one head-to-head game remaining. That will come April 5 in San Antonio.
That game will be part of a four-game trip for the Suns, who also must play at Golden State this week before hosting Denver and Dallas. It's possible the Spurs will have made up some -- if not all -- of the ground before the showdown.
The Spurs and Suns have just a three-game season series this year. Since they split the first two games, the third and final encounter will provide the tie-breaker that determines the difference between the Nos. 2 and 3 seeds if the teams finish the season with identical records.

Only slightly, 2nd seed gives HCA in the 2nd round.

Yup, the Nuggets sound a better team for us to beat in the first round. Didn't we sweep them in 05?
And Kobe cant wait to get a shot on the Suns team for what happened last year.
I really dont care about HCA. We beat them in 05 when they were a better team, and we will beat em again.
