Can we get the 6th Seed?

[Vesper]

The Hawks need to win the rest of their games and slide into 6th seed!

The Celtics will rest starters in the last game!

Loss at home to Philly was HUGE

We would be only 1 game out of 6th, and only 2 games out of 5th if we had swept them.

Oh well.

Right now we are 2 out of 7th, 3 out of 6th.

I think 3 games with 5 to play is not realistic. 2 is a remote possibility.

Let's keep hope alive for that 7th.

Philly actually could fall off with their tough next 3 games.

Toronto could lose to Detroit and Jersey.

It looks like we would have to go 5-0 for any shot at 6th and 4-1 for any shot at 7th.

Basically we would have to win these next two road games and pray that Orlando/Boston rests their starters.

Then all we would have to do is face the tanking Heat on the final game.

So really it's only 4 games we have to worry about. We lose one of the next two and forget about any of those scenarios.

In fact lose the next one, and we have to worry about clinching 8th

I'm happy with the 8th seed.
