Miami Heat secure playoff spot, but what are their first round chances?

It’s official: the Miami Heat are going to the playoffs.

Currently sixth in the Eastern Conference, the team secured themselves a spot on Tuesday night, with a win over the Atlanta Hawks. 2017-18 regular play isn’t done yet, as the Heat still have four games remaining in their schedule, but the question on everyone’s mind is how Miami will fare come the postseason.

If the playoffs were to start today, they would face off against the Cleveland Cavaliers. With a 48-30 record, LeBron James and company sit third in the East, therefore matching up with the Heat.
