They really need to get at least to survive this series because after it, one of their stars will be able to play but before that, the upcoming game six will be to live or die situation and also with the 76ers. I want to see game 7 at this early stage of the playoffs. in the west, neither the Clippers nor Mavericks are giving up easily against each other and this could also be a potential game 7 out there in the first round of the NBA playoffs, I wonder who will be advancing to the next round.
I am still rooting for Milwaukee to win the series. Although they are really the underdogs. Giannis might be only available in the second round but the Pacers are not a joke this season especially with the addition of Pascal Siakam.
In the other series, Philly is still lucky that they have Embiid playing in the playoffs. New York don't have Randle and also Bogdanovich. But I am still expecting New York to win the series. Jalen has a big heart and he still has decent teammates enough to beat Philly.
