It came down to the final game on the final night of the season, but we finally have the seeding and match-ups for the Western Conferpence Playoffs. Here's how it all shakes out:
(8) Memphis @ (1) San Antonio
(7) New Orleans @ (2) L.A. Lakers
(6) Portland @ (3) Dallas
(5) Denver @ (4) Oklahoma City
Poor Mavs, they drew the one West Coast lower seed that NOBODY wanted. I know they had a shot at the #2 seed, but maybe they should've considered tanking last night's game and granting George Karl's wish. Not saying the Nuggets will be an easy out for OKC, but they will be a helluva lot easier than playing the Blazers.
Anyway, here's the weekend playoff schedule:
Saturday 4/16:
(8) Indiana @ (1) Chicago, 1pm, ESPN
(7) Philadelphia @ (2) Miami, 3:30pm, ABC
(5) Atlanta @ (4) Orlando, 7pm, ESPN
(6) Portland @ (3) Dallas, 9:30, ESPN
Sunday 4/17:

(7) New Orleans @ (2) L.A. Lakers, 3:30pm, ABC
