Who do you want the Pacers first-round playoff opponent to be? The Philadelphia 76ers? Or the Cleveland Cavaliers?
We will find out tonight, as both teams are in action with playoff seeding on the line. The Indiana Pacers are currently locked into their fifth-place spot in the conference, with the Cavaliers occupying fourth and the 76ers third. That could all change this fateful evening.
The Cavs are 50-31 while the Sixers are 51-30. A win by the Sixers locks them into the third seed. But a loss by Philly and a win by Cleveland would give the teams identical records, and the Cavaliers would have the tiebreaker over the 76ers thanks to their Central Division title.
