My girl finally got her 1!!!!!

Heat will need a lot of help in order to make the playoffs.

The way we're playing now, I'm not even that worried or excited about it.

 

[Heatles84]

Enjoy Paul George while you can, Indiana.

 

[Heatles84]

LOL

As a Cavs fan I would not feel great about this win.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

LOL

Warriors will make it a short Finals this year.

Likewise. I'm kinda hoping we lose out allowing Charlotte and Detroit to pass us

Lebron played 51 minutes tonight

Makes Celtics game on Wednesday meaningful, but in general, not a good night for them even with the win.

The Heat will somehow wake up tomorrow and Tuesday in the playoffs but it likely won't mean much if Waiters is not back ASAP.

I honestly thought they would win these 3 home games pretty easily. Wouldn't be surprise to see their big 3 rest on Tuesday.

Can't be.
Typo?
@WiggyRuss assured us his minutes would be down this season.
Have they ever been higher?

 

[bksballer89]

Charlotte one game out of the playoffs now. I think we're looking at a Cavs/Hornets 1st round series

Dude, if you don't make the playoffs, I predict you get the 10th pick in the draft.

So, you know what that means!

That's why I'm not even that mad. If we miss the playoffs, we probably finish 10th in the East....maybe 11th and Denver will end up with a better record than us as well. It is almost a win-win situation.

Basically what we said 2-3 weeks ago.
Short term, it would be fun to make it if we're healthy.
Long term, better pick probably helps more.

Here is how the schedule for the upcoming week look for the 4 teams fighting for the final 2 spots out East.

Bulls- AT NYK, AT PHI, AT BKLYN
MIA- AT CHA, AT TOR, AT WSH
IND- VS TOR, VS MIL, AT ORL
CHA- AT WSH, VS MIA, VS BOS

My guess is Chicago goes 3-0, Mia goes 0-3, Indy goes 2-1, and CHA goes 2-1.
