1 game up, they both have the same number of home and away games left. Although Indiana has Toronto at home coming up. Going down to the wire. DaDakota GO RAPTORS...
Does anybody know how many times Toronto & Pacers have played this year? I know they play again next week - but somebody stated, in the other forum, that Toronto now owns the tie-breaker (if they end up tied).
toronto owns the series 3-0 so far. playing once more in indy (i think next week). tor is 1 game up & the tie breaker against ind go raptors!
Wouldn't is suck if the Raptors were able to climb up all the way to the sixth or maybe even the fifth spot. I think they are only 2-3 games behind Charlotte for the fifth spot.
Ya'll are totally greedy. I would be just fine with getting the 15th pick this year. Besides, the difference between the 14th and 15th pick isn't much, though the difference between the 5th or 6th, or 6th to 7th, is far more meaningful. Go Cavs! They can help us on two fronts tonight. A Cavs win and a Toronto win and I start to feel confident about this unexpected pick. Personally, by the effort Toronto has put in since Carter is officially out really shows some internal problems with their players. I just hope they don't stop playing over their heads until they are assured of that 8th spot. Finally, the Bucks are imploding as well. They have 3 road games left and playing 5/6 last games against teams fighting for playoff positioning. The Bucks do own the tie breaker with the Raptors though.
MORRIS PETERSON "… The big key is that we’ve won games by two and three points. Earlier in the season we were losing those games. We are playing as a team. We’ve been riding Antonio all season, he has been our warrior." Riding Antonio all season, huh? "Our" warrior huh. Now they are "playing as a team". What does this say about Vince?
Man, whether the Pacers end up making the playoffs or not, I don't think Thomas will be coaching Indiana next season. How could a team with that much talent not even make the playoffs in the Eastern Conference?
You can't blame Isiah. The Pacers are running a rookie PG, and a rebuilt team. Jalen Rose was a key player on the team, and now they're trying to re-establish their identity and Reggie Miller is useless in he playoffs. If the Raptors winning gives us a Top 15 draft pick I'm all for it!
Thanks largely to the play of Antonio Davis. He has got to be averaging about 22 and 12 since Carter went down. (He is on my fantasy team too, thanks Vince!!) Well, Antonio has shown he can step up and fill the void somewhat.
I still don't think Isiah is that good a coach. I can see some of the other coaches in the league doing a lot more with the talent he has. Go Raptors
I am picking a three-way tie at the end of the season between the Bucks, the Pacers and the Raptors. The Bucks have the best head-to-head record, followed by Toronto who will be 8th, and Indiana who will be out of the playoffs. The Pacers have the easiest schedule down the road and will make a push with a 5-1 record in the last 6 games. The Raptors will go 4-2, and Bucks with the worst schedule will go 3-3.
Isiah didn't have to start Tinsley. He could have brought him off the bench. Regardless of his decision Tinsley is one of the best rookie pg's to come out in years, so that argument doesn't really make sense.
