so the Pacers had a better year than the Rockets? at least they made their series exciting and I don't care about Chauncey or Amare being hurt. they wouldn't have played any defense anyway, as showed by Rondos performances in games 1&2 a playoff berth in the East is given to two teams each year that don't deserve it. the Rockets finished at the bottom of the only division with an entirely winning record...
It's actually at least 3 teams that don't deserve it in the east. The Hawks are also only a win above us, and they're the 5th seed. If our circumstances were better earlier on in the season, winning those extra 2 games certainly doesn't look that unrealistic. There are games we could have easily won, such as the one we lost against Minny.
