I think they will have a tough path to making the playoffs. They have lost to the Magic so as far as I can tell the only way they can win the group is by 3 way tie between Magic, Celtics and Nets at which point it goes to point differential which they currently trail the magic by 22 and Nets by 8. So they have to win this game by 23, have the nets win by 14 or less to win the group on tiebreaker.

If the nets lose they would still alive potentially for one of the wildcards as a 2nd place finisher but again the point differential is probably going to cost them.

They have a path but they need some help and to win this game by a lot.
