It’s that time of the year, Basketballcados! The NBA Playoffs are here!

But before the playoffs could officially start, we have to go through the Play-In; the NBA’s version of the Wildcard Round. Eight teams from two conference play it out to win the final four spots for the playoffs.

Unlike the past playoff threads, I will be making a separate thread for each round of the playoffs so one thread will not clog up the front page of the site for two months.

Play-In Schedule:

Friday, April 19:

• 7:00/7:30 PM EST: Chicago Bulls vs Miami Heat (ESPN)
• 9:30/10:00 PM EST: Sacramento Kings vs New Orleans Pelicans (TNT)
