NBA Playoffs: Coincidentally, the top four in the Eastern Conference are just like one last season. According to this rule, these two teams in the Eastern Conference Finals

The top eight in the Eastern Conference playoffs are the Cavaliers, Celtics, Knicks, Pacers, Bucks, Pistons, Magic, and Heat.

The roster looks very familiar. Last season's top 8 were: Celtics, Knicks, Bucks, Cavaliers, Magic, Pacers, 76ers, and Heat.

If you don't consider the ranking, this season's top 8 teams in the Eastern Conference are the same as last season. The only difference is that the Dark Horse Pistons replaced the 76ers.

In the first round, the Cavaliers defeated the Heat, the Celtics defeated the Magic, the Knicks defeated the Pistons, and the Pacers defeated the Bucks. In the end, the top four in the Eastern Conference were the Cavaliers, Celtics, Knicks, and Pacers.

In the first round of last season, the Celtics defeated the Heat, the Knicks defeated the 76ers, the Pacers defeated the Bucks, the Cavaliers defeated the Magic, and the final four Eastern Conference were the Celtics, the Knicks, the Pacers, and the Cavaliers. The top four in the East are exactly the same this season as last season.

Even the first round showdown had similarities: the Pacers beat the Bucks, the Knicks beat the 76ers/pistons, the Cavaliers beat the Magic and the Heat.

The final outcome of last season's second round was: the Pacers reversed 4-3 and defeated the Knicks. The Knicks, who had been using the main players, had injuries and physical problems at the end of the series. The Celtics defeated the Cavaliers 4-1. Pacers and Celtics meet the Eastern Conference Final.

The second round of this season, the current situation is that the Pacers lead the Cavaliers 2-0 and the Knicks lead the Celtics 2-0.

If the situation last season is based on the situation, the Pacers and Celtics should eventually enter the Eastern Conference Finals.

Pacers VS Cavaliers

Pacers are currently leading the Cavaliers 2-0 away. The Cavaliers are suffering from injuries and the Pacers have the advantage in momentum. From multiple levels, it is still very likely that the Pacers will eventually defeat the Cavaliers to advance.

For the Pacers, the third game is the most difficult game. If you can win the third game at home, it is equivalent to breaking the Cavaliers' last glimmer of hope, then you are likely to sweep the Cavaliers 4-0 and advance to the Eastern Conference Finals.

For the Cavaliers, the third game is the most critical game, because falling behind 0-3 is equivalent to being eliminated, but falling behind 1-2 is still hopeful even if falling behind 1-3. The difference between

Pacers and last season is Halliburton's growth. He suddenly grew from the most overrated player to the way others overrated it. Two big reversals and two finals are proof of it.

Knicks vs. Celtics are currently leading 2-0 away. If the progress of last season is based on the progress of last season, the Celtics will eventually complete the reversal and advance.

In these two games, the Celtics lost a very ugly situation. They were both 20 points ahead and were reversed by the Knicks. They were not allowed to score at the last moment, and they were also intercepted by the Knicks to win. They did not have the morale that the defending champion should have.

Of course, the Celtics are not without hope of reversal. Indeed, compared to the Cavaliers, the Celtics have much higher chances of reversal.

On the one hand, it is the team's heritage. The Celtics lineup has played in the finals twice and won 1 championship.

On the other hand, the style of the playoffs is very similar in recent years. It is that no matter whether the score is leading or behind, it can play normally without any impact. For example, once lagging behind the Heat 0-3 but chasing 3-3.

What's more interesting is that the Celtics' away winning rate is much higher than that of home games.

From this point of view, the Celtics do have hope of reversal.

If this is true, then the Celtics VS Pacers will enter the Eastern Conference Finals this season, which is the same as last season. I have to say that the Eastern Conference is really stable in these two seasons.
