I'm hoping for Sixers vs Celtics 1st round....it's a win-win if either team loses the series.

All of these teams except for Boston would get demolished in the West.

Good chance of it if Embiid is still out for the first play-in game against the Heat. I don't think the Sixers need him to beat the Hawks or the Bulls. It would be hard to root for the Sixers, but I do want Lowry to have a strong playoff run and consolidate his HOF credentials.

This is assuming that if Sixers lose the first play-in game, and win the second, that the Heat and Sixers are re-seeded to 7th and 8th respectively, despite their season records. Is that true?

can we just make this the playoff discussion thread?

I forgot about Lowry, but even Lowry won't get me to root for Embiid.

Heat will only have to beat the Sixers in the first play-in game to get the 7th seed...so it's a decent chance

play in i got

Lakers win for 7
GS win
Pels over GS for 8


Sixers win for 7
Chicago win
Miami over Chicago for 8

Lillard is washed so I don't see him carrying the Bucks. Pacers might just win this series

Urgh, I really hope a mediocre team like Indiana doesn't get lucky with Gianni's being out. It would be like watching the fluke Atlanta Hawks run from a few years ago.

I have same in the East and Lakers as the 7th, but I have GS winning both games to make it as the 8th.

Is this the thread for playin games?

Pels off to good start. How long till the refs make sure Lakers win?

Oh man I see Scott Foster is reffing. Forget it Pels

Pelicans should be a better team with the roster they have. I wonder if Willie Green should get sacked.
