That is how many games the team needs to win to guarantee that they win the division. The magic number will go down as they win games, or the second place team loses games.

Or to be more specific, it's a sum of how many games the 1st place has to win + how many games the 2nd place has to lose.

So if 1st faces 2nd and wins 1 game, their magic number will go down by 2 (they won and 2nd lost).

When magic number reaches 0, it changes to x - clinched division title.

Edit: Just noticed Rock mentioned the 2nd place losing... Well, gotta grab some coffee and wake up.

I do the same thing, reading the forums before grabbing food or caffeine.
