    Here's the thing about this final day that makes it special. No single team in the playoffs knows who they're playing yet. Has this ever happened in your lifetime?

    I never remember so many scenarios on the last day, especially where both the eastern conference and western conference 8th seed is unknown and the 8th and 9th seed could end up with similar records. Then there's the possible 3-way tie between 2,3 & 5 or 3, 5 & 6 in the West..that's crazy!

    Well cavs-Celtics is set for sure, but other than that no other series is known. Pretty cool stuff.

    Ehh... I get that it is exciting for some of the fans... how is this exciting for players, coaches, GMs and other staff members of the NBA?

    Sorry, I would call it more dramatic. Unfortunately I just cannot watch a lot of games this year.

    So from a personal standpoint, not really different than a season when the outcome has been determined 5-10 games before the playoffs.

    Dramatic, exciting..same same.


    shastarocket, I didn't know the celts were a lock. For some reason I thought they could slip to 8.

    This is pretty cool and goes to show you that each division between the conferences has less parity.

    Nope, if Raptors win and Bulls lose it will be Raptors 3rd and Bulls 4th since Raptors are division winners.
