What playoff scenario do you want for the Cs?

Sounds like we are big Atlanta Fans right now as we are so much more likely to get a 4 seed compared to them losing.

I believe there is still a chance we end up the 5 seed, but I'm not sure. If anyone could break down the playoff scenarios I would appreciate it.

According to CBS Sports NBA:

I don't think it includes all the possible outcomes, it's 4 games so the possible outcomes should be 2^4=16. I think the combinations missing are the ones with Miami losing to Detroit and beating Boston in the final game of the season.

Winslow (ankle) out vs Pistons.

4 seed against MIA.  I'm okay with losing if we put up a fight and they do well vs CLE or TOR.  If we lose to the Hornets as a 4 seed, that's pretty sad.

4th seed versus CHA and it's not close.

6th against Atlanta would be a disaster.

5th against Miami might not be so bad, since it doesn't sound like Bosh will be back.

Is home court versus Miami no longer a possibility?

Is home court versus Miami no longer a possibility?

yes if 1) atl wins miami beats detroit, bos beats miami , 2) if atlanta wins miami loses to detroit boston beats miami charlotte loses or 3) if Atlanta loses miami loses to detroit boston beats miami and charlotte loses
