Miami, Miami, Miami.

I was all in on facing Charlotte. But now, I might be leaning towards Miami.

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.

I just want home-court advantage for a round.  It'd be nice to get to round 2, and I think starting the series in Boston would be key.

TP, thanks!


I'd rather see Charlotte than Miami in the first round, but I appear to be in the minority.

And I'm definitely in the minority for this one, but I'd love to see a second round match-up against Cleveland. I don't think we can beat any of the top-3 seeds, but BOS-CLE is turning into a real rivalry, and you know every game will be exciting.

Wow this is great, TP.

For those keeping score at home, there's 12 possible ways the remaining games can play out:

6 of them have Boston in the 4 seed (4 against Miami at #5, 2 against Charloote at #5).
4 of them have Boston in the 5 seed (all against Atlanta at #4).
2 of them have Boston in the 6 seed (all against Miam at #3).

Hold up, what if Miami loses both games and Charlotte wins tomorrow, are we then facing Charlotte  instead the Heat? If so, I can understand why we lost yesterday against them.

So 2/3 chance of avoiding Atlanta? I'm cool with that.

And for the record, I couldn't care less who we play in the second round. Let's get a series win first, that's gonna be huge for us. We can worry about the second round if we get that far.

Thanks for break down, TP to both of you.

I want no part of Atlanta, especially if they have home court. Not scared of Miami even if we are the 6 seed, but the superstar calls Wade would get in the playoffs would drive me nuts. Last night not withstanding I'm not afraid of Charlotte.

Yes.

I want home court. I was pretty set for Charlotte over Miami, but as of yesterday and our slippage in perimeter D, I almost wonder if Miami is the better matchup since they're much less of a three point shooting team.

Yep. This was what I was thinking as well.

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.
