The Athletic NBA Daily
NBA Playoffs Bold Predictions

I would not be shocked.

The Athletic NBA Daily
NBA Playoffs Bold Predictions

I could see Philly beating Orlando, given what happened to Orlando just now and the way that their season is kind of crumbling underneath them.

The Athletic NBA Daily
NBA Playoffs Bold Predictions

Right, yeah.

The Athletic NBA Daily
NBA Playoffs Bold Predictions

To your point, I know Philly's going to host, but ultimately everybody thinks Orlando's going to win that game.

The Athletic NBA Daily
NBA Playoffs Bold Predictions

I wouldn't be surprised at Philly doing it.

The Athletic NBA Daily
NBA Playoffs Bold Predictions

I'm glad you brought that up because that's sort of my, you know, I guess bold prediction here.

The Athletic NBA Daily
NBA Playoffs Bold Predictions

If I had to save it, save it for after the break.

The Athletic NBA Daily
NBA Playoffs Bold Predictions

Yeah, no doubt they have the easiest path.

The Athletic NBA Daily
NBA Playoffs Bold Predictions

I mean, they're going to play either the Lakers without Luka Doncic and without Austin Reeves.

The Athletic NBA Daily
NBA Playoffs Bold Predictions

or they'll play Kevin Durant and the Houston Rockets, and we've seen them beat the Rockets, and we've seen them handle the Rockets.

The Athletic NBA Daily
NBA Playoffs Bold Predictions

Even though the Rockets can provide some interesting matchup stuff to them, they're not going to play the Nuggets or the Spurs until the conference finals.

The Athletic NBA Daily
NBA Playoffs Bold Predictions

So that's two, I don't want to call them buys.

The Athletic NBA Daily
NBA Playoffs Bold Predictions

They still got to win these games, but it's definitely the easiest path

The Athletic NBA Daily
NBA Playoffs Bold Predictions

And for good reason.

The Athletic NBA Daily
NBA Playoffs Bold Predictions

Truthfully, they burned it.

The Athletic NBA Daily
NBA Playoffs Bold Predictions

I mean, for real.

The Athletic NBA Daily
NBA Playoffs Bold Predictions

What about in the East?

The Athletic NBA Daily
NBA Playoffs Bold Predictions

I think in the East, it's the 1-4 side of the bracket.

The Athletic NBA Daily
NBA Playoffs Bold Predictions

So if you look at either Detroit or Cleveland, they have a pretty straightforward path to getting themselves to the conference finals.

The Athletic NBA Daily
NBA Playoffs Bold Predictions

Because I do think the Cavs will handle the Raptors, depending on how long that series is.
