And with the Detroit loss...
We move into 6th place at 15-13 and push them to 7th. Congratulations, guys, we're moving up! We do have the same record, but I think we won the tiebreaker with our better conference, division, or road record.

I was just going to post something like this. Not only are we in 6th, we're half a game out of 4th, and with Jermaine back, it won't be long before we pass Orlando and Washington.
Miami has too big of a lead for us to catch them, but if we win the division, and the Pistons get the 4th or 5th seed, it shouldn't be too tough for us to reach the Eastern Conference Finals again.
That's getting ahead of ourselves though, I'm really not sure this team has what it takes to win the division without Artest.

Agreed, unless they lose Wade or Shaq for about a month or two.

I just don't want to face the Heat in the playoffs, which would mean that we need to win our division and capture the #2 seed. We'll get to play someone like New York, Philadelphia, Orlando, or Cleveland in the 2nd round, and the Heat and Pistons can duel it out.

It's very good to see us moving up. With Jermaine we are a much stronger team, and after we have Jackson back we will overtake Miami.

Look at Miami's record, then look at our record. Look at Miami's record, then look our record. Repeat process until you get the point that barring an injury and a Ron Artest return, we can't pass them.

It's sweet that we're ahead of the Pistons now, but we have the toughest part of the schedule comming up just now. I'm saying we're going to lose, but it will be difficult.
