NBA Standings

Anyone had a look at the recent NBA standings. It seems a little crazy that a team with a 17-20 record (Philly) is currently holding the 3rd seed in the east, whilst a team (Orlando) that holds a 19-16 record holds the 6th seed.

Seems a little stoopid to me that just because you are leading your conference (the Atlantic sucks bigtime), you are automatically offered a high seeding than a team with a better record, but plays in a tougher conference (central and southeast are much tougher).

I thought that playoff were designed for the best teams with the best records regardless of what conference they play in
