East:
(1) Celtics vs. (8) Cavs
(2) Magic vs. (7) Heat
(3) Bucks vs. (6) Pacers
(4) 76ers vs. (5) Knicks
West:
(1) Timberwolves vs. (8) Pelicans
(2) Nuggets vs. (7) Lakers
(3) Mavericks vs. (6) Kings
(4) Thunder vs. (5) Suns
Denver vs. Celtics. This will be our final barring any serious injury with Celtics winning it.
I’ll just do the first round:
(1) Celtics 4-1 (8) Cavs
(2) Magic 3-4 (7) Heat
(3) Bucks 4-1 (6) Pacers
(4) 76ers 4-2 (5) Knicks
(1) Timberwolves 4-2 (8) Pelicans
(2) Nuggets 4-1 (7) Lakers
(3) Mavericks 2-4 (6) Kings
(4) Thunder 3-4 (5) Suns
Picked upset in Heat/Magic because obvious playoff experience reasons
Picked upset in Mavs/Kings because I don’t trust the Mavs against any team with a good center
WOLVES IN 6
NUGGETS IN 4
KINGS IN 6
SUNS IN 5
CELTICS IN 5
MAGIC IN 7
BUCKS IN 6
SIXERS IN 6
I’ll be happy if the Lakers don’t get swept again lol
But Celtics in 5
Heat in 6
Bucks in 4
Honestly don’t know about Sixers vs Knicks. Depends if Randle and/or Embiid decide to finally show up in the playoffs
Timberwolves in 6
Nuggets in 5
Mavericks in 7 (Could go either way tbh)
Suns in 6

For the 2nd round wouldn’t it be Celtics vs Bucks, Heat vs Sixers? And Wolves vs Mavs and Nuggets vs Suns?
Wolves vs Nuggets wouldn’t be the 2nd round since they are on opposite sides of the bracket.
