    Don’t know what’s better, facing a team full of violent offenders or Embiid.

  2. These 3 paragraphs pretty much state what needs to happen for each seed for the knicks:

    > For the **No. 2 seed**: Milwaukee will be the second seed if it beats Orlando; New York will be second if it beats Chicago and Orlando beats Milwaukee; Cleveland will be second if it beats Charlotte and both New York and Milwaukee lose.

    > For the **No. 3 seed**: New York will be the third seed if the Bucks and Knicks both win. Milwaukee will be the third seed if the Knicks win and the Bucks and Cavaliers lose. Cleveland will be the third seed if the Cavaliers win, the Knicks win and the Bucks lose.

    > For the **No. 4 seed**: Cleveland will be the fourth seed if it loses or the Cavaliers, Bucks and Knicks all win. Milwaukee will be fourth if New York and Cleveland win and the Bucks lose. New York will be fourth if the Knicks and Bucks lose and the Cavaliers win.

     

    and here’s the [chart again.](https://postimg.cc/B8RLZFdh)

    59% chance at 2nd seed seems pretty damn high. 28% chance for 3rd seed. 12% chance at 4th seed. 4th seed is pretty much a loss and a bunch of wins from other teams.

     

    the one team we want to keep away from is the sixers (since they’re at full strength). They’re all over the place. they can be 5th, 6th, or play-in at 7th/8th.

    Wow if it fell this way I feel like the first series against Philly or Miami would be tougher than the potential second series against Cleveland or Indy.

  4. I thought 59% sounded way off but then I looked at the betting lines and the Knicks are -1450 to win against the Bulls and Magic are -185 to beat the Bucks.

    6ers are frauds and have been for years. Embiid will never win a ring. Bring on the Heat. Smack them around for 4 or 5 games.

    People on this sub need to stop fearing teams. The Knicks are the team they don’t want to face.

    Super strange that the Magic can finish 5th, 6th, or 8th, but not 7th

    So these are probabilities after the play in games? Cause I don’t see how else they have bulls with a chance at 8th otherwise.
