Re: [Celtics' Stuff ] Can the Heat burn the East?
Ohhhhh, media darlings Cavs lose again tonight, now three loses in a row at
home. Ohhhh, poor things. Knicks losing everyone to injury, poor things. They
can't win a game anyways but now the "experts" have an excuse. Looks like the
Cs will win by default...
Told you it was all McGinnis and the Knicks were paper kitty cats.......

<< 7. Cleveland Cavaliers
Current record: 31-38
Projected record: 38-44
Skinny: The Cavs have been very good since the All-Star break
and
will catch a few breaks in their schedule down the stretch. They
have tough games down the stretch on the road at San Antonio,
Dallas, Milwaukee, Memphis, Miami and New York, but all of their
home games look winnable. If they can just take care of their
home
court and squeak out one road victory (maybe against the Sixers
or
Knicks) they'll be in good shape. The Cavs currently own the tie
breaker with the Knicks, so if they finish tied for seventh with
the
Knicks, they get a huge break by having to face the Nets instead
of
the Pacers in Round One.
8. New York Knicks
Current record: 33-38
Projected record: 38-44
Skinny: The Knicks missed some golden opportunities after the
break
to position themselves better for the playoffs. With 11 games
remaining, they have some work to do. The problem for New York
is
it
has some tough road match-ups against the Pistons, Nets, Pacers
and
Hornets and some hard home games versus the Grizzlies, Blazers
and
Cavs. Assuming they beat the teams they should beat down the
stretch, the Knicks are going to have to come up with three wins
against those seven teams to get out of the eighth seed. >>
