   Doesn't that  X look awfully good next to our name in the standings?
   Indiana/Toronto looks like the only race left, unless you count
Orlando/Charlotte fighting for home court in their series.
   We and Detroit are just waiting to see who gets the banged up Bucks or
the Iversonless Sixers, both of the conference finalists from last season.
Any word on Iverson's condition and/or status for a first round series?

X--CLINCHED PLAYOFF BERTH

Standings indicate how teams are positioned to make the
      playoffs. The top eight teams in each conference qualify
      for the playoffs with the two division winners seeded
      number one and two regardless of their records. The top
      seed will play the eighth seed in the first round, the
      second seed will play the seventh, etc.
