Now that the Pacers have lost three of their main players, many people are counting them out of the playoffs. Could this help the Magic get farther in the playoffs? If so, how far could they get with this great opportunity?
Right now, if the heat win the division the magic will get probably 4-6 seed. Right now they are 4th seed. If the magic win the division they will probably be 1 or 2 seed. I think it will help the magic a little bit but not exceptionally well because they are in a different division
I think the Magic will make the playoffs this season. Just stay .500 or above and it's practically a guarantee.
I think that it can't hurt, but I don't necessarily think that it is going to help the Magic move up in the playoffs any. The East isn't really as weak as a lot of people think it is, but it still isn't the West. Anyways, I think that the Pacers are going to be able to put a good run up at making the playoffs, but they aren't going to win their division. Nevertheless, the Magic are still going to be a 4-6 seed team in the East unless they do what most people don't think that they're going to be able to do: win the division. Now I know that a lot of people here don't think that it can be done, but I think that the Magic have a really good chance of winning their division if they can start to win some more games on the road and continue to stay healthy.
