    Indiana defeated Cleveland tonite and Milwaukee beat the Raptors. The Cavs are now 29-52 while Indiana, Milwaukee, and Toronto are all tied at 41-40.

    The Raptors will play the Cavs to end the season. Indiana faces Philadelphia and the Bucks meet the Pistons. The Raptors have the easiest final game of the 3 final contenders.

    The ideal scenario would see the Raptors beat the Cavs and the Bucks beat the Pistons. Through the tiebreaker, the Bucks would then hold the 7th seed with the Raptors at #8 (giving the Rockets the #14 pick). The Cleveland loss would put the Cavs at 29-53. We don't have to worry about the Rockets winning at Portland, so they will end up at 28-54.

    Still hoping for a miracle from the Nuggets against Minnesota..

    That miracle could be a possibility if the TPups rest thier stars like they did for the last game last season, and like what the Rox and Nuggets did tonight.

    Yes. They split 2-2, but the Wolves have the better conference record.
