Depends what happens with Pacers tonight. They could lock up the 6 seed if they win and 76ers lose.
They'd still be able to move ahead of Orlando, though, right? So, they should be playing for something no matter what else happens.

True but I thought ensuring avoiding the play in would take precedence over trying to get 5 instead of 6.
Technically they can still move ahead of Cleveland too and those teams play tonight. So tonight will determine a lot.

Getting 5 instead of 6 could mean playing the Cavs instead of the Knicks, but it might mean playing the Magic instead of the Giannis-less Bucks.
Are the Knicks going to try for the 2nd seed, when that means playing either Phili or Miami in round 1?
There's definitely a lot in the air still.
reply
Yes, I thing will be more clear after tonight.
