Around the NBA: Week 25 (4/8 - 4/14)

I think the winner of New York/Philly will go to the ECF

IMO both those teams are just begging for a major injury. I don't trust Embiid's legs, and the Knicks have Thibs burning guys out with 40+ minutes a game.

Ya that’s a fair concern. Embiid hasn’t stayed healthy ever in the playoffs it seems. The hope is he got his injury out of the way. Knicks already lost Randle..we’ll see what happens.

I know the NY/Philly series isn't clear cut, but I like Philly in this one. NY has been missing a little of something since Randle went down, although Brunson has been playing much better since they traded away Barrett. It feels like NY has struggled a bit, but they are the little engine that could.
