Playoffs Week 1: The CRUCIBLE 2024

All 8 Game 1s of the 2024 1st Round

Is there a reason to think this year’s Denver/Lakers series will go better for LA than last year’s?

What strengths and weaknesses do the playoff newcomers from Orlando bring to challenge the Cavs?

The Suns are favored in this series, should they be? What specific matchup problems do they cause for the Wolves?

Luka vs Kawhi is perhaps the best matchup of the first round.

Plus, the news that Jontay Porter is banned from the NBA and Zion Williamson will be out weeks with his hamstring issue.

LAL/DEN, ORL/CLE, PHX/MIN, DAL/LAC Outlooks; Jontay Porter Banned

A fascinating final day of action unfolds, with huge games between Orlando and Milwaukee, Phoenix and Minnesota, and LA and New Orleans overshadowed by….Cleveland and Charlotte? Why JB Bickerstaff’s closing lineup will go down in tanking lore.

Plus, the Knicks’ fascinating decision (which they may not even have considered) of whether to win against Chicago, the Bulls’ curious decision to go for it against New York, and whether the Lakers should actually consider losing the 7 vs 8 game to avoid the Nuggets.
