Teams that suck on the regular season, and are not dynasties, normally suck on the playoffs. Everyone feared the Heat two years ago after the bubble even when they sucked and the Bucks utterly destroyed them. They're gonna get destroyed this year too.


They're still dangerous, after all they beat us one year ago. But yeah if we play up to our capabilities, we should beat them.

I'd rather face the Nets than the Heat obviously. One team has beaten us in a series and has a star who is capable of putting up 30+ in a series while the other has Mikal Bridges as their star lol.

We need to beat Miami on Thurs to keep them from catching Brooklyn for the #6 seed.

Let's all take a step back and remind ourselves that NBA regular season and playoffs might as well be two different leagues. There's not a doubt in my mind under this coach we could lose to Miami in 7 games. Please let us face Brooklyn.

No way. Heat are nowhere near last season’s version when they got the 1 seed.

Otherwise, agreed with the overall sentiment we should play the Nets in the 1st round.

I'm going to lurk on the Heat and the Nets board to see which one of those teams actually want to play the 76ers in the first round.
You want it to be one way....but it's the other way.

I'll save you some time. No team would prefer to play the Celtics in round 1.

I completely forgot they were the 1 seed in 2022. Pretty wild, but I could still see it happening with them as the 6.

Boston had Miami - Philly - Bucks to beat to get to the Finals. Tough, very tough

Return to Philadelphia 76ers
