What if I told you that the New York Knicks decide the fate of which eastern conference team is going to be swept by the Milwaukee Bucks in the first round of the playoffs? Pretty exciting stuff, am I right?
Seriously though, a playoff appearance is quite important for all of these teams. The Heat want to give Dwyane Wade one last playoff send-off, the Magic have multiple young players that need to experience playoff basketball for the first time, and the Pistons have yet to test out their Griffin-Drummond frontcourt in a playoff series.
