CAVS will get the 12 pm sat gameCavs will need to worry about just beating the Magic but these are going to be some spicy 1st round matchups
#1 Boston gets either Miami or Philly most likely
#2 seed if Knicks or Bucks gets either Philly or Miami
We would play Miami if they are the 8 seed and beat Boston.What if the Heat beat Boston and Philly beats the Knicks in round one? We get Philly second round with home court. Brilliant move by JBB!
Don't forget the Pacers & Bucks. Pacers won 4 of 5 (considering the in season tournament added a game), but it also took a franchise record from Giannis to get that one W which in turn led to a bunch of drama off the court. Pretty sure this was taken in consideration today.Cavs will need to worry about just beating the Magic but these are going to be some spicy 1st round matchups

For 1st round maybe but not for 2nd round when you play Boston your done.Don't forget the Pacers & Bucks.

I'll never downplay an opponent again but good might be the most ideal scenario possible.
Cavs were once on pace to win 56 games not too long ago and end up with just 48 wins. They once won 18 out of 19 games and were on fire with a healthy Mitchell and an injured Garland and Mobley.
Also note Cavs could have had SGA they were offered SGA and pick 6 for pick 3 the year we drafted Mobley.
Also note the Cavs would just taken SGA over Sexton (with reports they were going to take SGA then for some reason went Sexton) that year and never would have had the need to trade for Mitchell and this team would still have all the picks and be in way better shape.
Anyway things looking bleak once Mitchell heads on out.
SGA didn't want to come here. So there's that.
