    oops...I forgot to write...the most important thing about being the 3rd seed is,

    the 3rd seed won't get to face the Lakers until the WCF!


    --since everyone apart from the Lakers are extremely close

    --we have a very good chance of beating whoever we face in the 2nd round as long as its not the Lakers

    --therefore the 3rd seed provides the best playoff seeding for us

    who do you think the 3rd seed plays in the second round then?

    the 1st seed or the 2nd seed


    hint: its not the first seed

    weird. i thought the #2 seed wouldnt have to play the #1 seed until the conference finals.

    i thought it went #1 plays winner of 4/5

    and #2 plays winner of 3/6

    NEWSFLASH: The 2nd seed won't play the Lakers until the Western Conference Finals either. AND they're guaranteed home court in the 2nd round whereas the 3rd seed isn't.

    LOL - the 2nd and 3rd seed are in the same bracket, neither faces the Lakers until the WC finals, and the 2nd seed has home court advantage of the 3rd seed.

    This thread is dead.

    There has been someone saying we need to get 4th seed to avoid lakers in the second round, and now someone saying that the 2nd seed plays the 1st seed second round.

    Wtf.
