it's still only 6 playoff teams per conference, right?
I mean it’s technically 10 teams per conference that will make the playoffs this year including the Play-In Tournament.
If the playoffs started tomorrow, Nets would face the 7th seeded Knicks.
So I'm assuming the play-in will cut it to 8, then 4 rounds in the conference playoffs followed by the finals.
Right?
Yes.
- Play In
- 1st round
- 2nd round
- Conference Finals
So, a path to the Finals could be Knicks/Hornets or Celtics (8th) , Raptors (5th), Sixers or Bucks in the ECF based off the current standings and expectations.
