The Conference Semifinals are the second round of the NBA Playoffs, following the First Round matches. Eight teams will compete to advance to the Conference Finals, to determine the two teams in the NBA Finals.
The First Round matches are still taking place, so until any of the teams win four games, we’ll have to wait and see who will advance to the next stage of the NBA Playoffs bracket.
In the Western Conference, it could be the New Orleans Pelicans, Oklahoma City Thunder, LA Clippers, Dallas Mavericks, Minnesota Timberwolves, Denver Nuggets, Phoenix Suns, or LA Lakers. In the Eastern Conference, it’s down to the Boston Celtics, Miami Heat, Cleveland Cavaliers, Orlando Magic, Milwaukee Bucks, Indiana Pacers, New York Knicks, and Philadelphia 76ers.
