2024 NBA Season and Playoffs

Apparently Trae Young could return soon and likely play in ATL's play-in games. Wonder if that could affect some things. ATL did upset MIA last April as well and took us to 6 games.

If the sixers get the bucks in round one, they win that series in 6 games.

Heat are really going to be pushed in the play in by the bulls or hawks. It would not surprise me to see Miami miss the playoffs.

If Bucks go out in the 1st round again, I wonder if there's any fallout.  Back-to-back 1st round exits, does Giannis demand a trade?  Is there a Lillard trade out there?  They can fire Doc, but then they'll be paying 4 coaches next year, which is a lot of money for a small market team.

On the other hand, they're already paying three coaches, so what's one more?

Root hard for Denver tonight. Winner of Wolves-Nuggets is almost guaranteed the 1 seed in the West. If so, then even if LAL advances through the play-in they will play DEN first round probably. If Wolves win though, Lakers likely draw MIN. Some depends on if LAL stays in the 9-10 bracket but with their loss last night, pretty sure GSW can finish ahead of LAL as long as they win out due to tiebreakers. Sacramento has been shaky too, but it may be a moot point if GSW wins out. LAL is likely staying around 9

I wonder how a 5-way tie for 6-10 shakes out, with everyone at 47-35.  It’s not impossible, since New Orleans is at 6 and plays three teams in the 7-10 range, meaning an 0-3 stretch for them gives everyone else a win who needs one.

They could bring back Bud since they’re still paying him.

Buf is going to have options. They were talking about him on local Cleveland radio yesterday, as an example.

After looking through the schedules this is how I predict the seedlings will shake out.

1.BOS
2.NY
3.CLE
4.ORL
5.MIL
6.IND
7.PHI
8.MIA

You win 60 games yet get to toughest path possible lol

At this rate, I think we should hope the Knicks or Cavs can take down the 76ers as they're more tougher than the Bucks.

Bucks probably won't last against the Magic, but I like the Celtics' chances on this timid Bucks team who've lost 4 in a row and a gimpy Giannis. But ofc, we gotta get past the first rounds first and that may involve exorcising some demons with Miami.

Bucks fans are more worried about other teams than the C’s. It’s the weirdest thing, they are looking too much into those two games where the C’s no showed. If Orlando can beat them twice this week why not in a series where Giannis probably won’t even play in?

If a bucks fan is worrying about anything beyond Gianni’s right now they are kind of an idiot.

I don't know who's the most delusional right now; Bucks fans, Heat fans, or Laker fans.

As long as you don’t think it’s Celtics fans, I don’t mind.

Heat fans. Lakers and Bucks still have 2 top 15 players on them.

Heat fans still think they are flipping the switch and going on a magical run like last year.  All I have heard is the regular season doesn’t matter to them because they will show up for the playoffs. Still living off the same lazy narrative if they play the Celtics.
