Just over a month ago, I sat down and explored which scenario the Philadelphia 76ers would likely want to see more. A first round matchup with the Jimmy Butler led Miami Heat, or a first round matchup against their longtime rival up in Boston. While I eventually settled in on the Heat (you can check out that story: here), the NBA season currently being up in the air has changed a lot about how people are viewing the postseason.

While fans aren’t necessarily thrilled about the potential of an abbreviated playoff bracket, fewer postseason games is something the Sixers organization would absolutely love to see.
