9 games tonight. So maybe they want to slip one in early.

They clearly didn't think the Pistons were going to be the best team in the East when they made this schedule.

Celtics lighting it up from 3. Pistons playing from behind. Still lots of time left to play though.

Is tiebreaker head to head and then point differential. Meaning even if the Pistons lose they can still win the group Friday with just a win over Magic?

Point differential is for the WC right?

I think that's right. Point differential only comes in if they're all 2-2

Right. If 3 teams are tied.

I know point differential decides the wildcard.

So if Pistons lose they can still win the group with a win Friday and Magic can still get in on the WC but they can't lose by too much.

Oh yeah, for some reason I was thinking the groups only had 4 teams each.
