Chicago's win put us in...(NOT!!!!)

...according to sportsline.com because they eliminated the 76ers and Magic.

So now, we're just playing for seeding.

That's great.

We are not in yet.

But the only way we miss the playoffs is if we lose out and if the 76ers win out.

"Philadelphia remained alive, but barely -- one more win by Washington or one more 76ers loss would put the Wizards in and complete the East field."

ahh...i saw it on espnews bottom line, it said "BULLS, WIZARDS IN PLAYOFFS"

[Warhead36]

Wait I am confused.

Maybe we ARE in....

I guess it comes down to the tiebreaker between us and the 76ers.

Oh well it means nothing. We still have to beat the Cavs to go one step closer to winning the 5 spot.

Also, in the sportline.com standings, it lists the Wizards as having clinched.

[PCRoughrider]

Well now, sportsline.com has changed the Bulls-Heat recap, so that the 76ers aren't eliminated but their standings sill show the Wizards as having clinched.

I thought we had to win to get in..I saw on espnews all it said was bulls clinch playoff spot.

[PCRoughrider]

Now sportsline.com has changed their standings to show that every other spot in the East has been clinched except the Wizards.

Yes, the Wizards apparently haven't clinched despite the fact that three teams behind them have clinched. :rolleyes:

[MidwayMonster31]

How about clear this by beating Cleveland?
