I use the site playoff predictors, here's a link for anyone who wants to try it. It's basically like ESPN's NFL playoff machine but for the NBA.

If we lose we most likely play Orlando in the #4 vs #5.
If we win we most likley play the winner of the play-in between the Heat and Magic.
The fact that we play Orlando head to head does a lot to help us control our match-up and makes it almost impossible for us to play Philly. Multiple unlikely things would have to happen for us to play Philly, not saying those things can't happen but it's unlikely.
Thanks.
I don't know if the Bucks did it on purpose (I don't think that they actually did), but if we end up playing Orlando, losing all those games to bad teams down the stretch might end up being a blessing.
They definitely did NOT do it on purpose. Giannis would have been resting instead of playing high minutes and b2b if they were trying to lose those games. Few organizations would have been smart enough to force him to sit, Milwaukee definitely not one of those few.
