    Brooklyn vs. Indiana!
    Which is the best pick here... Brooklyn +6 or Indiana -6 and why?

    A meaningless game. I will lean Pacers as I think they want gather some momentum going into the playoffs.

      It's a guessing game as to which team actually wants to win this game - both teams are secured in their seeds so no real motivation.

      Pacers are probably the play based on just the line, but probably best to avoid.

        People just keep underrating the Nets. Gonna ride them to a W once again.

            Not true, Pacers need to win to clinch 3 seed (with miniscule chance at 2 but doubtful). If Pacers lose, they could still drop to 4-seed, lead over Nets would be two games will three to play but Nets would own 4-0 season sweep.

              Pacers will have to lose all their remaining games while Nets need to win all games. Yes, certainly possible but a very very low chance.

              And division leaders automatically win any tiebreakers against non-division leaders.

              Confused about the Brooklyn Nets heading into the playoffs? Here's a look at all the matchup possibilities for the Nets heading into the playoffs ... The Nets, at 45-32, would have to beat the Boston Celtics, Pacers, and Toronto Raptors all on the road, then the Washington Wizards and Detroit Pistons at home, to finish the season 50-32 (which, incidentally, would be their first 50-win season since 2001-02, Jason Kidd's first year as a New Jersey Net).

                  THAT I never knew! I knew that division winners are guaranteed a top 4 seed, but I always thought that the one non-division winner in the top 4 would be treated equal in regards to tiebreakers.

                      Ironically though if the Pacers and the Nets were to face each other in the playoffs later, I think the Nets would have homecourt advantage in the event of a tie. Division leaders automatically win any tiebreakers against non-division leaders in regards to seeding, but the team with the better record always has the homecourt advantage regardless of seeding and I think they use same tiebreakers across the board there.

                          Boys this game is not meaningless. Both teams are playing starters and have seedings to play for. No resting starters here
