Feels like it has to go at least 6 and probably 7. I'll go Bucks in 7 because that's what I want to happen

If Bucks win then I feel like it need to be in 6

Ok I am no basketball expert I just follow the Bucks.

A question I have is for NBA playoff seeding when you go to the second round are the teams they play set by how they are seeded where the best team left in the second round plays the worst team left in the second round.

If so why would the NBA diss Washington and already have the series set up between Milwaukee and the Nets.

I know it is not likely for the Wizards to win 3 games but is it right for the NBA to write them off before it happens?

Or maybe I have this all wrong and that no matter what happens the Bucks and Nets will be playing each other

Nets Bucks is locked in. The NBA doesn’t reseed.

Kyrie Irving

gets traded from the Cavs. Rips Cleveland as a sports town.

Says how great of a sports town Boston is

Verbally commits to staying there long term

Leaves Boston after severely underperforming, shows up his teammates

Purposefully dodges playing in Boston

Has to play in Boston since its the playoffs

Calls the city a bunch of racists

stomps on the logo midcourt

acts like the crime of the century has been committed when someone throws a half full water bottle at him.

How are players supposed to act when something is thrown at them? And I don't even think he reacted poorly. Actually reacted as most normal people would.

If a random throw a bottle at you outside, you're going to stop and see who threw it which is all that Kyrie did

I agree the fan was an asshole and an idiot and shouldnt be allowed back at a game.

Im not sure if charging someone with a felony for throwing a half full water bottle is exactly justice.

as for Kyrie- something tells me that if he doesnt call the city a bunch of racists and leaves the court instead of stomping on the logo the water bottle is probably not thrown.

not saying what the fan did was right- it wasnt- but antagonizing the fans is prob. not the right move either.

It is not the fans place to react. It is on the other team and the Celtics players didn't think anything of it

Potential to become the best series in the playoffs.

This should be the best series in the playoffs, with the winner the favorite to win it all. I think the Nets have to be favored in any matchup, but hope the Bucks win because I would rather have Philly play the Bucks...

The fact that these two have to beat the crap out of one another before potentially playing the Sixers is great of course. But with Embiid hurt, and his status uncertain, this series could be the whole enchilada.
