2021 NBA playoff brackets
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nba.com/news/nba-play-in-tournament%3famp=1
It’s gonna be fun. The play-in is a good thing. Per NBA.com:
“ At the conclusion of the regular season but before the first round of the playoffs, the team with the 7th-highest winning percentage in each conference will host the team with the 8th-highest winning percentage in a Play-In Game (the “Seven-Eight Game”). The winner of the Seven-Eight Game in each conference will earn the No. 7 seed.
The team with the 9th-highest winning percentage in each conference will host the team with the 10th-highest winning percentage in the “Nine-Ten Game”. The loser of the Seven-Eight Game will host the winner of the Nine-Ten Game in a Play-In Game, and the winner of that game in each conference will earn the No. 8 seed ”
So, when we beat GSW, they will still be alive. I like that. It’s also fortunate that we ended up on the same side as the Suns. They’ll be good warmup for the hallway finals series.

I’ll take it if we’re the only one. I don’t see Dallas beating the nail clippers.

It would be fun if the Lakers - Warriors play in is actually a preview of the WCF.

In the playoffs, SupertarS show up and unfortunately, Dallas and GSW do not have that other Alpha and even a strong Beta to provide firepower. Porzingis is just too soft, if he doesn't get injured, he lurks in the perimeter like he is Kevin Durant. Denver would have been a real threat but Murray is out.

That’s right. Superstars show up. Like Russell Westbrook and Bradley Beal surely will, barring hammy. I think the Wizards are going to kill the Celtics tonight. PoTatum and Smarts is not going to be enough against an angry Russ.
Anyway, with a healed Beal, which he might not be, the Nets better get ready in round one! Can’t have Uncle Drew turn hippie and expect to win against a disgruntled group of misfits like the Wizards. I would love it if they got bounced in round one by the play-in team.
