Show Notes

The Eastern Conference playoff race is heating up as teams like Washington, Sacramento, Utah, Brooklyn, Memphis, and Indiana are openly rebuilding for a strong draft class. Meanwhile, Dallas and Chicago are quietly doing the same. The Miami Heat, currently in the eighth spot, has a chance to gain ground against these teams, especially with three games against the struggling Wizards. However, they face over a quarter of their remaining games against blatant tankers like Brooklyn and Indiana. Philadelphia also has many chances to move up in the standings. Toronto and Orlando lead the pack, but the Heat can still catch up if they win their final-week clashes. The Celtics, Knicks, and Cavs are bunched within two games, but the Knicks and Cavs have more tanker matchups. The 76ers, Heat, and Cavs stand to benefit most if they capitalize on these opportunities. The Heat is also looking to release Terry Rozier for a roster spot and will stream their game against Houston on Amazon Prime.
