The Warriors are now favorites in NBA Championship odds as short as +300. The Celtics odds to win the Eastern Conference also shortened to favorites’ position after sweeping the Brooklyn Nets out of the postseason
The 2nd round will begin on Sunday, with the Bucks and Celtics facing off at 1:00pm EST in the NBA Showcase game on ABC.
After both seventh seeds won on Tuesday night, the 8th seeds held firm on home court Wednesday night, setting up 8 vs 9 matchups for the final playoff spot in each conference. The Hawks opened as two-point favorites in Cleveland, while Los Angeles are four-point favorites in the Clippers vs Pelicans odds.
For the third straight season, the NBA will continue with the Play-In Tournament for the 7-10 seeds in each conference before commencing the traditional 16-team playoff format.
Following the Play-In Tournament, we have a traditional playoff bracket with eight teams from both the Eastern and Western Conference competing in a postseason of four rounds comprised of seven game series. The opening round matchups are 1-8, 2-7, 3-6 and 4-5. The NBA does not re-seed if upsets occur, the bracket is fixed.
In the Play-In Tournament, the #7 and #8 seed in each conference will each have two opportunities to win one game to earn a playoff spot. The #9 and #10 seed in each conference will each have to win two consecutive games to earn a playoff spot.
The #7 team in each conference hosts the #8 team, with the winner receiving the seventh seed. The winner of the #9 vs #10 game will then face the loser of the 7-8 game, with the winner of that game earning the #8 seed in the final bracket.
