Does Toronto have the tiebreaker over Chicago? They have the same record and now are ahead of Chicago. Could've sworn Chicago swept them this year, unless division is the first tiebreaker.

Yes Miami might not make the playoffs this year. Cavs have a chance to quiet the angst on those that are askeered of playing Miami in the first round. Cavs would have no problem wiping them away in 4 straight. The 2 losses in Miami don't mean squat.Dr. KnOiTaLL;1718181 wrote:Heading up to the game tonight to watch the Cavs play Miami in a must-win game for the Heat. They're currently tied for the 7/8 spot with Boston a half game back. Brooklyn and Boston are both off tonight, so a loss could drop them to the 8th spot with a slight edge over Boston due to the tie breaker. Hope the Cavs can take them down in easy fashion tonight!

The bold part is correct. Its too late now but had Toronto lost the division, the H2H tiebreaker would have come into play.like_that;1718182 wrote:Does Toronto have the tiebreaker over Chicago?

I had a long explanation typed out then after doubting my response I decided to do more research and will instead just post this...

There is still a chance of 2nd round match-ups of (1)ATL-(4)TOR and (2)CLE-(3)CHI in the 2nd round. With 7 games to go the Raps and Bulls are tied.

JR with 6 threes in the first half including a ridiculous shot to beat the buzzer.

Anyone hear anything about LeBron knocking Love's lunch tray out of his hands a week or so back? My dad mentioned something to me about it today, but I hadn't heard anything?

Sorry, been under a rock much of the last couple weeks. Feel free to laugh at my expense after explaining that it was a joke or something. My dad has never really been a reliable source of sports information.SportsAndLady;1719084 wrote:Are you serious?

What I mean is, did you ever think to yourself, "you know what, my dad isn't really connected at all and Lebron knocking Kevin love's food tray (because why would professional athletes be eating lunch like elementary kids?) is a pretty stupid fucking rumor that probably isn't true and I'll just leave this one be."?

That win pretty much gives the Cavs a 5 game lead (they have the tie breaker) for the 2 seed. They should start resting guys.
That was a sloppy wint hough. There were times the cavs had a chance to blow the game wide open, but they would do stupid shit to let the bulls back in.

On another note, it seems that there's going to be a battle for the last two spots in the East. Who would you rather play: Boston, Brooklyn, Indiana, or Miami.
I've gotta say, after seeing how things are playing out, I think I'd rather play Miami out of that group (I sang a much different tune 2 weeks ago).

Answering that question is just gonna jinx myself. Someone will quote it after we lose to them and blame the loss on me. And rightfully so.
So I'll just say I hope they are going into the playoffs healthy and playing their best ball.

Probably Miami because they're Bosh-less but I think we'd blow through Brooklyn too

We steamroll Brooklyn, Boston, and Miami. Indiana, with PG back, i'd like to avoid. Obviously who knows how good he'll be going forward, but played pretty good today.
