Who would you most like to play round 1? Who would you least like to play round 1?

1. I think the sixers without Embiid or with a weakened Embiid are the worst of the four in which case it would be a breezy first round, or he is healthy and they are the best and I wouldn’t mind taking out a top team in round one and hopefully making the rest of the playoffs a bit easier

2. Bulls, we won all games by a nice margin.

3. The Heat. Rip the band-aid off and get those dudes out early.

4. Personally I’d go

   1. Bulls
   2. Sixers (no embiid)
   3. Hawks
   4. Heat
   5. Sixers (w/ embiid)

   But I also wouldn’t be mad at playing the heat. Part of me wants to stomp them in round one, it just worries me as KP has left early in like all out matchups against them

5. Full strength sixers would be an ultimate troll

6. Fine with any of them, really. We own Philly, so that’s an easy advance. Hawks shocked us the other night but we destroy them in a series. Same with Chicago.

   Miami would obviously be the hardest but even then, I think we win that series quickly. The Heat will inevitably have a game where they shoot 80% and someone off the bench scores 30 but we are BY FAR the better team.

7. any of these bums

8. Personally, I’d enjoy ending Philly’s season early again. Would also be satisfying to take Miami out early and send those smug fucks home in the first round.

9. We will obliterate anyone in the east. Whoever is the least likely to cause injuries.

10. Don’t care

11. Bring on any of these chump ass bustas

12. none of them scare me, not even the heat. We have played them well this year.

13. Miami because their fanbase is so pathetic and insufferable…

14. Bulls or Heat. Bulls for the easier warmup, and the Heat to do something similar to what we did in 2022 with the Nets

15. If we can’t beat the 8 seed heat team with our roster, we were never contenders to begin with.

16. Give me the Heat. I think this team crushes them, and I would enjoy that.

17. Fear no one bring em

18. i want miami.

19. Heat for both answers

20. Obviously prefer bulls/hawks but heat would be the most fun imo

21. I want us to kill miami first round so that i never have to hear from heat fans ever again

22. Heat ideally, I trust the guys to get it down against them, maybe not a sweep, but at least in 5

23. I like the idea of beating The Heat right out of the gate. Let’s do it.

24. Doesn’t matter to me. The Celtics have been by far the best team all year. I expect them to beat anyone they face, though Denver will be a battle if that happens.

25. Whoever wants it can get it.
