Who to root for
Both clubs are in the Eastern Conference, so they chase the same playoff spots. A regulation win takes two points away from a direct rival, a four-point swing compared with the reverse result. If you cheer for a third Eastern club, a regulation finish is best (two points handed out instead of three), ideally won by whichever of the two is less of a threat to you. Your team's playoff odds page shows the exact effect on game days.
