On Saturday, April 18, the 2015 NBA Playoffs begin.

The first-round matchups are set after the final games were played on Wednesday night, which means we now have a couple of days to speculate on how the entire field will play out over the next month and a half.

Will the Golden State Warriors cruise to the Western Conference crown, or will the San Antonio Spurs enjoy their usual postseason reign of terror? Can LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers overcome the Atlanta Hawks to reach the NBA Finals? Or will a sleeper team like the Dallas Mavericks emerge victorious?

It’s sure to be an interesting next few weeks as we weave our way through the NBA Playoffs. Either way, it’s sure to be filled with miraculous shots, MVP-worthy performances and a few big letdowns.

Buckle up, folks. The NBA Playoffs are upon us.
