2014 NBA PLAYOFF MATCHUPS (Round 2)

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Yep, just waiting til the Wizards/Lakers game finishes to update.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Updated...

Need a big Bobcats win tomorrow.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Wizards have the Nuggets tom. If the Nuggets can somehow get the win we will only be 2 games behind Washington.

[Guest Dark Knight]

New Jersey is finally playing like the team everybody thought they would be. They're peaking at the perfect time. Meanwhile, Indy & Miami are cooling off.

If the Cats don't catch Washington they'll be 1 & done in 4-5 games. Gotta pass them.

[Guest Dark Knight]

Wizards come to Charlotte on the 31st. That's a must win game. Charlotte need 2 of 3 before then. There is a good chance Washington goes 2-2 or 1-3 heading into that game.

WAS-

at DEN

vs PHX

vs IND

vs ATL

at CHA

CHA-

vs HOU

vs BKN

at ORL

vs WAS

If WAS goes 2-2 & CHA goes 2-1, then beats Washington...

WAS 38-36

CHA 37-37

[Omega Atrocity]

So basically we need to swipe one from either Houston or Brooklyn. I'll take my chances with that, especially considering that game last night (Blazers for future reference).

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Wizards lost to Denver... Only two games behind them now.

We can make it 1.5 with win over Houston.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Atlanta also lost to Toronto and Brooklyn is currently down to Dallas.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Updated for today.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

The problem were facing now is that if Toronto doesn't continue to win... Brooklyn could catch them giving the Nets the three seed.

[Brooklyn Bully]

I take it this is about you guys not wanting to take on the Heat in the first round? 

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Not particularly

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

These next three games are CRUCIAL...

vs. Brooklyn

@Orlando

vs. Washington

If we go 3-0, I believe we will wind up as the sixth seed, if we go 2-1 I think we'll have a chance, if we go 0-3, you can forget about it.

We also need some help from Washington...

Washington plays PHX Wed.. if they lose, we'll be 2 games behind. The Cats also play Wed. vs. Brooklyn. If we knock off Brooklyn we'll be 1.5 games behind Washington.

On Friday the Bobcats play the Magic, If the Bobcats beat the Magic they will be 1 game behind Washington. Washington also plays Indiana on Friday... if the Wizards lose, Charlotte will be .5 games behind the Wizards.

On Saturday the Wizards play Atlanta... if they lose they will be tied with the Bobcats, if they win they will be 1 game up on the Cats.

On Monday Charlotte plays Washington. If Charlotte goes 2-0 against Brooklyn and Orlando and Washington goes 1-2 against the Hawks, Pacers, and Suns then Charlotte can tie Washington in the standings with a win over them on Monday.

If Charlotte goes 2-0 and Washington goes 0-3, Charlotte can take a full game lead on Washington with a win on Monday.

In recap... Bobcats need to go 2-0 this week, Wizarda need to go 1-2 or 0-3 this week and Charlotte needs to beat Washington on Monday to either tie Washington in the standings or jump them.

Btw everything's updated.

[Omega Atrocity]

2-0 is possible if we play well. Orlando SHOULD be a gimme, as awful as they are.
