Carmelo's rep on the line against Heat?

They have nothing to prove, they are both losers

Bulls over 76ers in 6
Celtics over Hawks in 6
Heat over Knicks in 6
Pacers over Magic in 5

Spurs over Jazz in 5
Grizzlies over Clippers in 6
Thunder over Mavericks in 7
Lakers over Nuggets in 5

Can someone explain to me how the Hawks are the 5th seed but get homecourt over the Celtics? That makes no sense. If they have a better record then they should be the 4th seed right?

Watch out for the Jazz though. That might be a bad match up for the Spurs. I got every game being close. Maybe they can steal one on the road. If not, then it will be a short series.

I think the rule is that theremust be 3 division winners in the first 4 seeds, but hawks has better record so they get the home court

We both picked the same teams to win, just in different numbers. Lol. But i don't think see any sweeps like you do. I think the Magic are still going to play hard & the Sixers are always tough at home.

Oh ok. It makes sense now.

Well whats the point of giving all four division winners a top seed if they're not going to get homecourt? Lol. Seems pretty pointless to me.

I tend to agree...

A positive spin on the season for the Knicks is that they HAVE a postseason.
But I hope NY fans don't become shocked if the Knicks get ousted in the first round quickly.

What Rep, Bro?

Any match up is bad for the Spurs.
