I watched the 4th qtr of that game refs had it out for the Raptors with bogus charging call on the Raptors and other questionable call down to the wire.

we were beating them pretty good early with amir + jonas dominating. then the refs called 4 fouls on them quick and they both had to sit. changed the complexion of the game. then jonas going out with a lower back strain in the 2nd half (along with the amir + jonas foul trouble) left us weak and thin up front - especially with patterson still out with an injury. patterson's impact off the bench has been huge for us and we've been missing him this past week. and casey's use of novak drives me bonkers. novak sucks and should be used strictly like craig hodges.

but give atlanta credit - they are playing like a desperate team.

Nets hot on the Rapt's heels! First place gets that good Seeding. Stupid rule but it does make the awful division interesting! Nets emerging late in the season and can grab that 3 seed puts them solid on the trajectory of the 3rd team in the east. Miami's late decline is typical of them. I know its not riley's preference (read his book) to coast at times in the season but that group has shown it has another gear for the playoffs and since so many of his teams in miami fizzled in the playoffs (the mourning era) I can see how the team is trying to stay fresh. If it means a few loses, no problem.

I'd love the Knicks to get in the playoffs and knock off Indy!!!!! I'd love to see the knicks and Nets in a playoff series! Rilvaries are born with important games!

winner of atlantic will be guaranteed for a top 4 seed (not automatically 3). and home court is still based on record. so whomever wins the atlantic is #4, and the #5 has a better record, then #5 has homecourt.

Thanks for the info!!!

I just heard a post game interview with him and did not understand a damn thing eyebrow said.

I think Denver got some of our juju in the process of becoming the Knuggets.
