If We Get the 5th or 6th Seed, Can We Win the First Round?

I think we have a chance to win any series except for Heat and Pacers.

 

With a true scoring Big man like Al we have a solid chance. He shoots at a high rate and not many teams can stop him down low. With solid defense and some other people hitting a shot here and there we could definitely win a first round series. I think we will win a game no matter who we draw in opening round

We're only 3 games behind Brooklyn with 2 games left against them.

Brooklyn is on fire lately.  They have the best record in the NBA since the start of January - they've only lost 9 games since then.  They've won 8 of their last 10.

 

Of their remaining 19 games, only 7 are against teams that would make the playoffs if the season ended today.  Don't feel good about catching up with them.  

 

All eyes on Washington, who are down Nene for a good chunk of time.  Their schedule is easy too, but they aren't playing at the same level as Brooklyn.

If the seeding were to fall precisely in our favor, we could possibly reach the finals...

We can knock off Toronto rd 1.

If we get Indy & Brooklyn gets Miami rd 2? Highly, highly unlikely either team pulls off there upset. However, Charlotte matches up very well with Indy & Brooklyn has took it to Miami this year.

Less than 5% chance, & unlikely the seedings pair exactly the way it would have to. But at least it's actually plausible this year & not a fantasy.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
