AnythingChicago Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Because most people on this site are visual people, my "If the NFL Playoffs Started Today" thread with team logos in a bracket was pretty popular. So I have decided to do the same thing for the NBA. But because the NBA plays way more games, I will update this about once a week, so don't keep bugging me for updates. So without further ado, here is what it would look like if the NBA playoffs started today.Current NBA bracket (version with best team winning)Current NHL bracket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEAD! Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 If the NBA playoff started today, it would be the shortest regular season in NBA history. I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CS85 Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 I mean, it's kind of early is all....It's a cool project tho. To me personally it seems like it takes 4 years for 1 NBA season to end since the playoffs last forever. Quote "You are nothing more than a small cancer on this message board.

NJTank Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Its hard to think about what if the playoffs started today before the season is half over. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnythingChicago Posted November 22, 2010 Author Share Posted November 22, 2010 I mean, it's kind of early is all....If the NBA playoff started today, it would be the shortest regular season in NBA history.Its hard to think about what if the playoffs started today before the season is half over.Yeah, yeah. But the point of this is to see what position your favorite team would be in, kind of as an example to what would happen if everyones' records stayed the same until the season ends.And I will be doing updates when I get bored even if it hasn't been a week or so. And because my first post was done yesterday afternoon, I have updated it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDixonDesign Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Wait! WHERE THE F@#% ARE THE HEAT! THEY AR AUTOMATICO NBA CHAMPIONS OF THE WORLD! :cursing: :cursing: :cursing: Ok. Now since that's been settled, we can move on realistically. Let's atleast wait until the halfway point, or even 25 games to gauge playoffs.....

AnythingChicago Posted November 22, 2010 Author Share Posted November 22, 2010 Wait! WHERE THE F@#% ARE THE HEAT! THEY AR AUTOMATICO NBA CHAMPIONS OF THE WORLD! :cursing: :cursing: :cursing: 3 stars that are used to getting the ball on 1 team doesn't work very well. They have a very bad passer-to-shooter ratio, if you will.Ok. Now since that's been settled, we can move on realistically. Let's atleast wait until the halfway point, or even 25 games to gauge playoffs.....I am going to keep going. I assume you didn't see this post...But the point of this is to see what position your favorite team would be in, kind of as an example to what would happen if everyones' records stayed the same until the season ends.

loogodude90 Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Interesting enough. I'll check this regularly. But for the predictions of who advances, I assume you are just making the team with a better record win. Right? Is there any subjectivity in this?

TBGKon Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 I'm sorry, but this is unnecessary at this point the season, as it's only on month into the season.A thread like this could work no earlier than probably February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cujo Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Agreed. Bring this to us after the NFL, March Madness, American Idol, and the 2011 baseball seasons are all over. There will be more of an interest in the NBA then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just so happens that I favoured the higher seed in every 1st round game. That will change as time goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnythingChicago Posted November 22, 2010 Author Share Posted November 22, 2010 [announcement]So, I have decided that I will continue to do this. I think it's cool to see the playoff picture each week as teams go on winning and losing streaks. If you believe it is too early (which most of you do) then you don't have to open it until February or March or April or whenever. So the thread lives![/announcement] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCall Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Really, though, if people are that hard up to find out where their team is in the "if the playoffs started today" scenario, all they have to do is look in the newspaper or online for the standings and it's not to difficult to figure it out from there. So basically, this is only just a thread for YOUR predictions, which, not to sound rude, but I don't think that many people really care that much about to see it every single week, especially when the season has barely started. And honestly, I'm not so sure there are that many die-hard NBA fans around here who are clamoring to see the "what if" at all. https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And honestly, I'm not so sure there are that many die-hard NBA fans around here who are clamoring to see the "what if" at all.I am.But I actually think it would be better to keep it objective and have the better team win every series.I think the whole point of this thread was to create a visual representation. I don't think there are many websites out there (and definitely not newspapers) who already have brackets created, so I think it's cool that he's doing this. Maybe I'm a simple person but I like seeing the playoff setups in bracket form, even if it is really early.Anyway, generally speaking, if there's a thread I don't care for I don't end up posting in it anyway, and I don't rain on the parade of people who actually enjoy it.
