It's an interesting playoff match ups if it goes like this

Cavs, Celtics & Knicks are lock in as 1-2-3

Pacers, Bucks & Pistons are guaranteed on the playoffs, only positioning will matter. With Lillard out, Bucks might be the 6th seed but who knows

Looks like Hawks and Magic will play for #7 but the Bulls are red hot right now so they might sneak.

Magic vs Hawks play-in
>> Hawks beat the Celtics twice this season however they dont have a complete roster with them, Magic would be an interesting match up with the C's in round 1

Bulls vs Heat play-in

Bulls win and play the Hawks for the last spot, Bulls beat the Hawks and play the Cavs round 1:

Cavs vs Bulls - Cavs in 6
Celtics vs Magic - Celtics in 5
Knicks vs Bucks - Knicks in 6
Pacers vs Pistons - Pistons in 7 (hot take)

In the West:

OKC is the only one in a lock up position right now, but looks like the Rockets and Nuggets have the advantage to claim the next 2 spots.

Lakers and Grizzlies might face each other in round 1, who will get the homecourt advantage doesnt matter

Clippers Warriors and Wolves claiming the 6th spot would be a fun thing to watch, but i'm going Clippers for the number 6. The Warriors and the Wolves play for #7 and the Warriors will take it and face the Rockets round 1. Meanwhile whoever wins the Suns or Mavs vs Kings will be beaten by Wolves so Wolves will end up facing the Thunder round 1

OKC vs Minny - Thunder in 6
Rockets vs Warriors - Warriors in 6
Nuggets vs Clippers - Nuggets in 5
Lakers vs Grizzlies - Lakers in 7

Peace

Maybe i'm wrong with the West.

This could be the final standing:

Thunder is a lock as well as Rockets

Warriors will be number 3 and Denver is 4

Would be

Lakers vs Clippers playin for number 7
Dallas vs Kings playin for number 8-9 match up
Kings vs Lakers for #8 lakers win

Thunder vs Lakers - Thunder in 5
Rockets vs Clippers - Clippers in 6
Warriors vs Grizzlies - Warriors in 5
Nuggets vs Wolves - Wolves in 7.

Thunder and Warriors will meet in the west finals.

Top 4 teams in each conference that will surely be in the playoffs:

Thunder, Celtics, Cavs, Knicks, Lakers, Nuggets, Bucks & Grizzlies



7 teams will be lottery teams:
Wizards, Hornets, Pelicans, Jazz, Blazers, Bulls and Nets
*almost sold out their players except Blazers



Too many good teams in West:
Mavs(Davis,Kyrie&Klay), Wolves(the rise of Antman), Rockets(young guns), Clippers(Harden&Kawhi), Warriors(Curry&Butler), Spurs (rise of Wemby&Fox), Suns(KD&Book), Kings(LaVine&DeRozan)


In East,
The Better 4: Pacers(Paskal&Tyrese), Pistons(rise of Cade), Magic(Paolo&Franz), Heat(better than w/ Butler drama)

In Limbo:
Sixers(Embiid availability),
Hawks(No Jalen),
Raptors(Ingram timetable and if they can catch up)

Teams will be needing to sign players because of their roster counts

Warriors (12)
Kings (12)
Sixers (13)
Cavs (13)

Any suggestions or predictions who fits on these 4 teams??

If y compare the new Spurs to Mavs now:
Would you take Davis or Wembanyama?
Would you take Gafford or Sochan
Would you take Martin or Johnson
Would you take Thompson or Vassell
Would you take Kyrie or Fox

Mavs will not win a ring this year. IF they can add KD in the summer, they may have one run in 2026. If it fails - done. It may even fail, because of health issues. So Mavs have a lot to trade in 2026

DAL 2xst, 1st, 1st
TeamA Davis
TeamB Kyrie
TeamC Durant

I hope we see already this year new my Lakers again Dallas winning. : )
