#1 Seed

[mufan2003]

Could not have come at a better time with nagging injuries (Middleton, Allen, Connaughton) and the ability to rest Giannis, Jrue, Brook as needed. Last night's win also locks up the best record in the NBA. Some are superstitious about having the #1 seed in 2019 and 2020......but I think you should always strive for it when within reach.

The earliest the Bucks could open the playoffs is Saturday, April 15, with the "Play-In" games taking place April 11-14. Not overly concerned with too much time off, but it will be interesting to see if Giannis and Jrue play some in the final regular season game at home and then sit Sunday. That would still provide a full week of rest before starting the playoffs.
