So, even though this team is doing amazing, and currently hold the two seed in the east, I still feel like this team is getting disrespected.
Because of a small stupid thing, like point differential, they didn’t make it to the next round of the tournament, even though they beat Boston, who won their group.
Other thing is, even though this team is doing amazing and has won many games on the road, this team can’t get on national TV? But the Spurs who have only won 3 games are on national TV just because they had the number one overall pick. It just seems like all the popular teams get all the airtime on TV while a team like Orlando who is doing great Can’t even get any games on national TV.
Maybe they could use these reasons to get a high seed in the playoffs in the east and eliminate some teams. Maybe then they’ll get some respect
All the final group games should be played at the same time, but otherwise there is no one to blame but ourselves. The Nets didn’t make it either and they beat us by 20. No one is being disrespected here.
TV games are decided by whatever will draw the biggest audiences, it also has nothing to do with respect.
