  Getting rid of that debacle of a thread for the regular season.
  
  STAY ON TOPIC OR GTFO.
  
  
  
  As of right this second, the seeds would be....
  East:
  1 Chicago
  2 Miami
  3 Indiana
  4 Boston
  5 Atlanta
  6 Orlando
  7 New York
  8 Philadelphia
  
  West:
  1 San Antonio
  2 Oklahoma City
  3 Lakers
  4 Memphis
  5 Clippers

  This has to be one of only a few years in recent memory that EVERY team in the playoffs has a winning record.

  Would have made more sense to wait until after tonights games and have the seeds and macth-ups correct.
• friendfromlowry

  We can only hope that the Miami vs New York series will be just as entertaining as it was back in the 90s.

  NYK better beat Charlotte tonight for many reasons.

  contributing nothing I see..
  
  OKC wins the championship if Westbrook doesn't blow it.

  Yeah it'll definitely be a great series to watch. Melo will want to beat his counterparts in Miami. Imagine if he just put the Knicks on his shoulder and beat the Heat in the first round. It'd put him on a new level.
• wildcats20

  

  If they can continue to knock down perimeter shots, I think they have a real good chance of winning.

  Pacers gonna shock some people this year!!!
• killer_ewok

  

  I wish I was as optimistic about the Knicks beating the Heat as some of you are. Hope you're right but just don't see it. I felt better about matchups with Indiana and even Chicago.
  
  The New York-Miami rivalry was the best in the NBA back in the late 90's. Van Gundy looked like a knee brace hanging on Zo. LOL. Heated rivalries make the NBA so much more interesting IMO. Go Knicks!

  D-Rose goes down. That didnt look good. Id bet his season is over.

  turned the channel when they were up 20. wat happened?

  Turned his knee driving to the hoop when they were up 12 with a minute left lol -- was down for several minutes and eventually helped off the court. Looks like he could have tore something in his knee.
• Laley23

  

  It was the dreaded no contact injury as well. He put no weight on it coming down, then turned his body to avoid weight on it and layed on the court. Face looked like he knew he was hurt pretty bad.
• DeyDurkie5

  

  They just showed it during the heat game. Definitely looked like an ACL tear of some kind. No contact injuries are the worst.

  Melo sure isnt shootin too well, hell the whole Knicks team isnt and theyre still in it so far

  0-7 isn't good?
• hoops23

  

  Rose shouldn't have been in that game at that point anyway, but he has been made out of glass this year.
• friendfromlowry

  I'm sure no one cares a whole lot, but what's the deal with Jeremy Lin? Last I heard he was having surgery (knee?) and he might/should be back for the playoffs?
• robj55

  

  Chicago plays just as well on offense without him, will miss his in late game situations though with his ability to create shots for himself.
• Hb31187

  

  Jr Smith should have about 8 freethrow attempts if he was LBJ or Wade

  Obviously not

  I don't think they're championship contenders without him, though. But the Bulls are definitely use to playing without him.
