RETRIEVING CONTENT...PLEASE WAIT
Race to the Playoffs

There were several games played on Friday that had playoff implications. The Celtics-Heat game was one of the bigger games. With the loss, the Heat lost hope of moving up to the 4th seed and will not have home court in the first round. With their win over the Heat and the Magic loss to the Knicks, the Celtics now are 2 games up on the Magic for the 2nd seed and have a little breathing room going into Sunday's game in Cleveland. The Lakers loss to the Blazers also gives Cleveland a little breathing room at the top.
Here are the results of tonight's games to watch - Winners are in bold
Cleveland at Philadelphia
Indiana at Atlanta
Miami at Boston
New York at Orlando
New Jersey at Detroit
Lakers at Blazers
Eastern Conference Standings as of today
Seed Team GB
1. Cleveland 0
2. Boston 4
3. Orlando 6
4. Atlanta 18.5
5. Miami 23
6. Philadelphia 24
7. Chicago 25
8. Detroit 25
No teams moved up or down, but the loss ends Miami's bid for the 4th seed and moves them just one game ahead of Philly for the 5th seed. The Sixers dropped down to just a game ahead of Chicago for the 6th seed and Chicago and Detroit are once again tied at 7 and 8 with Chicago having the tie breaker if they finish with identical records.
The matchups haven't changed since yesterday and remain
Cleveland vs Detroit
Boston vs Chicago
Olando vs Philadelphia
Atlanta vs Miami
Games to Watch on Saturday
Detroit at Indiana
Orlando at New Jersey
Charlotte at Chicago
