    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Terry Porter was thinking out loud about what he might do if the Milwaukee Bucks had clinched the fourth playoff seeding in the Eastern Conference on Saturday.

    The Milwaukee Bucks' coach figured he could reduce the playing time of several key players this week and have them well-rested for the opening round of the post-season. But all that went out the window when the Bucks stumbled and lost at home to the New Orleans Hornets, 92-87.

    Now, instead of using the final two regular-season games for some fine-tuning, the Bucks are in a tight battle to keep the fourth spot and home-court advantage for the first round</div>

    they lost their final game to Toronto and dropped to #6... They will now face Detroit in the first round, and they practically eliminated themselves... ofcourse the games still have to be played... but winning a 7 game series over the Pistons is almost impossible for them imho... they would have had a chance against the Hornets or the Heat...

    They would have had the best chance against the Hornets, against the Heat they would have likely still lost. Still GO Milwaukee, Hornets and Heat.
