The month of February told me the 76ers like to play at home....or they turn into the bobcats.

I know it does look that way since they lost 5 road games in a row

I couldn't care less if the 76ers beat the Bulls in a regular season meeting. I said a few pages ago that the Sixers have no shot against a healthy Bulls team in the playoffs.

Looks like it's no way they will play the Bulls in the playoffs since they will win the division and get the 3 seed and then will play the 2 seed in round two which will be the Heat

Heat are getting the #1 spot this year. Id say they are a clear favorite at this point for it.

Fortunately for the Sixers.

I doubt it since it was revealed last night that the Bulls have a large portion of their remaining games at home after the All Star Break

It's so close it's hard to call, especially with the compressed schedule and spectre of injuries.

Miami has a 1/2 game lead right now and the Bulls have something like 16 home and 11 road games remaining. (or close to that) Miami's remaining games are 50/50 home/road.

IMO it may just boil down to the 3 remaining Bulls vs Heat games (2 in chicago) left on the schedule as neither team is likely to lose more than 6 or so games the rest of the season at the pace they are at.

Bulls are looking *tough*. Much tougher than last year. However, Miami is looking better too. The Bulls may still need a little more seasoning though. Hard to say.

I will pick the Bulls to be the #1 seed at this point.
