The NBA playoffs are where the best organizations are thrown into competition against each other, a chance for each team to show just how fit they are to be considered contenders or pretenders.
At the end of the regular season, 16 teams (over half the league) advance to the postseason, while the other 14 teams look forward to winning the loser’s championship with the announcement of the draft lottery. This chance to watch the best teams (and the Bulls) compete against one another gives fans an opportunity to watch the best competition of the season. As such, it’s a good opportunity for followers of the 14 teams left waiting for the draft to analyze what helped those 16 teams be successful.
