I feel confident enough in this squad first round that I think finishing 4th is the most important thing so to ensure playing the winner of the Hawks/#8 in the second round because facing Chicago or Cleveland in the second round would not be nice. With that said I say Washington because Milwaukee wont be jumping up to fifth.

I'm iffy about facing the Bucks but I'd probably want to face them. They have a lot of length that will give our guards trouble... and we run most of our offense through the guards so that's a scary thought. At the same time they're inexperienced and overall our talent level is better IMO. MCW is only a rookie and might be affected by the pressure during the post season.
Personally I wanna face Washington so the team can kick Paul Pierce out of the first round.OG is our king

Every team in the East is beatable.. but every team in the East also has the ability to beat the Raptors, especially if they play like they did in February.
If you want the US media to talk about the Raptors then Washington would be better then Milwaukee. Miami would be the best option though.
If you want the Raptors to have their best chance to succeed based on regular season it would be Washington, but Washington has a lot of playoff experience.. they took out Chicago pretty easily last year and they basically have the same team minus Ariza.
Milwaukee (and Boston) have the least amount of playoff experience.. but they both have pretty good coaches. Milwaukee knows how to shut down DD, and Boston has some smart defensive players too.
The Nets will be fun but Lopez will be playing and he's been beasting lately. And the Nets can go off on the Raptors and so that matchup won't be straight forward.
Basically.. I'm not picking anyone. Just let the chips fall where they fall.

easiest matchup is Bucks...they are in a serious slump since the Knight for MCW trade...plus with the youth and zero playoff experience that almost a surefire way to the 2nd rd.
most exciting matchup is the Wiz- we have their number cause we swept the season series but a playoff series of Lowry v Wall, DD v Beal, JV v Gortart, Pierce v JJ (hopefully our playoff starter) and Nene v Amir is too sexy to pass
dream matchup is the Nets- the hate-rivalry continues to build a legend and a chance for redemption.Last edited by RepTdot; Fri Apr 3, 2015, 01:11 PM.
