We have the head to head against Philly and are guaranteed a 6 seed with one more win, so them. Gives us a chance to move up to 5

They’re going to play to a tie and the nba is just going to vacate the results of the game lol

Orlando winning removes pressure to win one of these final two. I hope Orlando wins.

Orlando definitely. There is no scenario we can think of where we reach ECF or even GIVE FIGHT in a second round vs Celtics. Pretty defeatist attitude but I really want to meet them at least on the ECF. The only way we could have a chance as 4th or 5th is if Boston doesn’t reach the second round or if they do it completely destroyed by some random team they fear for some reason called “Miami heat” or something like that.

Orlando for sure. If we lose our next two and Philly wins (which is very possible) then we are in the play in. If Orlando wins that can’t happen and gives us some breathing room.

pacers Knicks is the series we truly want

It depends where you want us to end up. I want 6th or 3rd so go Magic.

Seems like there’s an objectively correct answer to every one of these posts. Obviously Philly

Magic winning is another avenue to guarantee avoiding the play-in. I’m less concerned about who our matchups are, just want to ensure a 7-game series and let the chips fall where they may

The magic because we’re guaranteed the 6th seed if they win.

We have the tie breaker against Philly but Orlando has the tiebreaker against us . So Philly , cause if we win against the Cavs tonight , we would have the tie breaker over them cause we beat them 3-1. Philly wins we move up over Cleveland cause of tie breaker and Orlando cause of win percentage . So by the end of tonight if that happens we could be the 4th seed

I accept that Philly winning adds pressure to these games. Bring it on. Let’s see what our guys are made of down the line

If pacers win tonight, a sixers win is better (means we probably would finish 4th instead of 5th).
If pacers lose, a magic win is better. (Guarantees us 6th instead of potentially lower)

Orlando. Unpopular opinion is assume, but I want Milwaukee or the Knicks in the first round. They’re injured, which sucks, but someone’s gonna take advantage of it, we might as well try to be the ones who benefit

pretty sure if the magic win we are guaranteed to get atleast the 6th seed so I’d rather just completely avoid the shitty play in
