The World’s Quickest 2024 NBA Playoff Preview: 1st Round

Disclaimer: I finished this post a day before the playoffs, but I forgot to post it (D’OH!!!)

YOOOOOO!!! It’s been a while, right?

I’ve been busy working on my social media game — namely TikTok and YouTube — but I chose this year’s NBA Playoffs as my return for 2024 (it’s been September 2023 since my last post!). This year’s playoffs are going to be the most competitive in recent memory.

I mean, have you seen this slate of first round matchups?

Knicks-Sixers. Cavs-Magic. Bucks-Pacers. Nuggets-Lakers. Clips-Mavs. Thunder-Pels. Wolves-Suns. Hell, even Celtics-Heat is compelling given this is a rematch of last year’s Eastern Conference Finals and revenge will be on the minds of the Celtics.

So buckle up, everyone. Enjoy this first round of what should be the most wide open tournament in several seasons.

Oh that’s right, the preview:

Eastern Conference

#1 Boston Celtics vs. #8 Miami Heat

Prediction: Celtics in six.

#2 New York Knicks vs. #7 Philadelphia 76ers

Prediction: Knicks in seven.

#3 Milwaukee Bucks vs. #6 Indiana Pacers

Prediction: Pacers in six.

#4 Cleveland Cavaliers vs. #5 Orlando Magic

Prediction: Cavs in six.

Western Conference

#1 Oklahoma City Thunder vs. #8 New Orleans Pelicans

Prediction: Thunder in six.

#2 Denver Nuggets vs. #7 Los Angeles Lakers

Prediction: Nuggets in six.

#3 Minnesota Timberwolves vs. #6 Phoenix Suns

Prediction: Suns in six.
