Charlotte 24 42 0.364

Milwaukee 23 43 0.348

New York 19 47 0.288

Miami 11 54 0.169

I think the the team with the best record vs the Eastern Conference wins the tie breaker. If that record is a tie I think it goes to who beat who the most head to head.

TIEBREAKER BASIS:

(-) Tie breaker not needed (better overall winning percentage)

(1) Head-to-head

(2) Conference Record

(3) vs. Teams ultimately at-or-over .500

(4) Head-to-Head cumulative point differential

(5) vCoin toss (tied teams listed alphabetically above)

Right now we are not in the playoffs because NJ is beating us in head to head

Hey Hotlanta1980: Yaah Trick!! Yaah!!

Please do not reference no-talent ass-clowns around this board anymore (aka soulja boy). God knows Woody, BK and ASG are plenty for one community.

Ha, yea, I heard it on the radio that morning and it was stuck in my head all day. Trust me, that will be the last no-talent ass-clown referance from me... well maybe one more...

When are the Hawks going to the playoffs?

This Yaah Trick!! This Yaah!!

just wanted to remind all you doomsday squawkers......:)

Ask yourself this. When the season started, if I told you we would have a 2 game lead for the last playoff spot with 4 games to play, would you take it? You bet your as* you would!!

It is really a 1 game lead (we only make the playoffs if we are within 1 game of Indy the rest of the way) but I agree we are not in a doomsday scenario right now. This is a lot more fun than any close to a season I can remember for some time.

It's true. If we don't get in, think how boring the summer will be. No picks in the draft. The only things of interest would be just seeing how many heads will roll, who we get to replace them, how Acie and Mario and Solomon do in the summer league, and interminable contract negotiations.

[JackB1]

Here's another encouraging point.....According to Hollinger, our odds of making the playoffs are currently 90.2% and Indy's are 9.8%. Which would you rather have?
