It's a little early for sim discussion, but this is the biggest regular season sim in the HISTORY of this league
There is still potential for a HUGE amount of movement in playoff seeding, and it's going to come down to the last game for alot of teams.
At midseason this last sim looked like a breeze, the Raptors were struggling, Celtics were terrible, Sonics and Grizz were trying to find they're groove, but now it is the exact opposite. I'm facing the hottest teams in the league, I play the Raps twice, the Celtics, the Sonics, Grizz, Suns and Bucks. This could be potential disaster (1-6) or a big success I can ride into the playoffs (6-1)

And in the West there are 6 teams fighting for the last four playoff spots. With 10 games remaining the Wolves have to go 7-3 to guarantee a spot (although 5-5 would probably make it for them).
Some key games between those 6 contenders in the west:
Wolves @ Kings
Mavs @ Suns
Wolves @ Spurs
Warriors @ Spurs

111 Heat @ Cavs
112 Rockets @ Cavs
117 Cavs @ Pistons
119 Cavs @ Nets
120 Hawks @ Cavs
I need to win four of these. I should be able to beat the Hawks, Heat, and Rockets, but then I'll need to steal one from the Nets or Pistons. Got my fingers crossed...

I will have to play all my games on the road. I will need some help from other teams and see if we can get lucky.

With games against the Magic, Suns, Bulls, Warriors, Nets and Kings, I think my team has plenty of spoiler opportunities.

I know it's a stretch, especially with the injury situation to Camby and Stojakovic, but it is still a possiblity to win the west overall.
Clippers are four games ahead with eight to play.
Go sonics!

well, I'd be surprised if my team goes 8th. With Kidd anf Fox down, Mobley will run the point. yikes

I don't think my sucess has anything to do with my team gelling or anything like that. I have had a very easy schedule after the all-star break and I think thats the reason why I have the second seed. I may be wrong, but I am not to confident in my team. Only time will tell.

Yeah, Clippers are looking to re-organize. Had some problems recently with the absence of Brand and Maggette.
They now have to get their act together and protect the home court throughout the western playoffs.
Very tough schedule though... 8 games, Grizzlies, Raptors, @ Hornets, @ Jazz, @ Sonics, @ Rockets (twice), @ Blazers...
Hope to go 5-3.

6 games this sim, 4 at home, 2 away.
The away games are vs. the Heat and the Spurs.
Hopefully those are 2 games I can steal from the home teams, especially with Ray Allen injured.
That Spurs game could be key.
Spurs play only 2 playoff teams in the last sim, and they are at home at both. If Schabinger plays well in Ray's absence, the Spurs will be tough.
The 4 home games are challenging. Games against the Blazers, Bucks, Pacers, and the Hornets.
Hoping to go at least 2-2 at home.
4-2 should get the Warriors into the playoffs, with the Mavs having all 5 games on the road. The Suns have 7 games total, and 5 at home. But luckily, they play the Mavs once, so that is a guaranteed loss for one of my playoff spot competitors.

I doubt I will make the playoffs. I play 10 games, 8 on the road, 8 against high-ranked playoff teams. I would be thrilled to go 4-6, but that probably won't get me in. If I go 7-3 then my prediciton of winning 14 of 18 would be proved correct |
