not that the playoffs matter, but interesting to see where we rank among the other lottery teams...

Hard to buy into a model that the Sixers' current two game lead over the Raps translates into that much greater a chance of making the playoffs (65% vs 7.2%).

True dat...

I'd say the two teams that are in the 7th/8th right now (Indy and Mil) are probably the ones that'll be there in the end.

Also Lakers < 3% chance to win it all....thats pretty gutsy

Does that equate to 33:1 odds on Lakers winning the championship? If so, Im sure there would be takers on that

76ers streaks: Lost 1, Lost 2 of 3, Lost 4 of 6, Lost 5 of 8, Won 6 of 11

Raptors streaks: Lost 2, Lost 5 of 6, Lost 7 of 9, Lost 11 of 14, Lost 13 of 18

I think it has a lot more to do with the fact that this year they have a much superior team to the Raptors but it has not yet shown in the standings.
