If the Bucks win tomorrow night against the Nuggets, then I will fully concede the 1 seed to them. I know it's still unlikely anyways, but if we want a slim chance then we probably need to get to next Thursday's game 2 games behind them. Then beat MIL and hope a team like PHI beats them while BOS wins out and potentially gets the 1 seed on tiebreaker. That's the only real path I see.
But if MIL wins tomorrow, I don't see it happening. They'd be 3 games ahead of us and I do not see them losing to Indiana/Detroit next week. We're not making a 3-game difference up in a span of 1.5 weeks even if we beat them next Thursday night
The 2 seed to me feels very likely though compared to the 3. PHI's been red hot and Embiid's been the MVP, but their schedule gets very tough over the next week. We could also help our own cause by just beating them again in early April.
