Clean wrote:It might not matter anymore today since we won but if us the Heat and the Hawks are in a 3 way tie we lose. In a two way tie we win vs the hawks and lose vs the Heat. In the event of a 3 way tie the conference leader wins. So the hawks would be 4 because they have tie breaker over Heat. Heat would be 5 since they have tie breaker over us and we will get 6.
From the Knicks perspective (by my math, correct me if I'm wrong!): 1) The magic # for 7th seed is 0! We did it! (Charlotte cannot overtake us!) 2) The magic # for 6th seed is 2. (2 wins (Knicks) or 2 losses (Boston)) 3) The magic # for 5th seed is 3. (3 wins(Knicks) or 3 losses(Atlanta)) 4) The magic # for 4th seed is 4. (4 wins (Knicks) or 4 losses (Heat))
Tie Breakers: Knicks vs Hawks: Knicks (3-0) Knicks vs Miami: Miami (0-3) Hawks vs Miami: Hawks (2-1) 3 way tie: Hawks (4th), Miami (5th), Knicks (6th)
Technically speaking, a 4 way tie is still mathematically possible - Knicks go 0-4, Heat and Hawks go 1-3, and Boston goes 3-1. Boston is 2 games behind Hawks & Miami. Boston vs Hawks: 1-2 Boston vs Miami: 0-1 4 way tie: Hawks 4th, Boston 5th, Heat 6th, Knicks 7th

Just finished watching off the DVR.
I love this team. Randle has put this squad on his back all season. Couldn't get it going today - Clips determined to stop him, but no problem. Rest of the team says we got you. Cap comes back with some big buckets down the stretch, 'cause that's what heroes do!
Derrick Rose is so damn likeable. He doesn't dominate the ball. He leads. He does whatever is needed of him and he does it well. I almost want to send Detroit another 2nd, because that trade just wasn't fair.
Remember earlier this season when losing to this same Clippers team by 15 felt like an accomplishment? Me neither.

Signature win for the Knicks on national TV and a massive bounce back after 2 tough losses. Randle making 2 clutch shots on a totally off night. Rose lights out again. Man this is so much fun.

Every time I hear Julius in an interview I like him more and more. He seems to answer dumbass questions the way any real fan would without the PR hustle.
