The Philadelphia 76ers are back in the NBA playoffs for the first time since the 2011-12 season. They have won 52 games and are going into the playoffs with a 16-game winning streak, the longest in NBA history entering the postseason.
Philadelphia's first-round opponent will be the 44-38 Miami Heat. The two teams met back in 2010-11 in the playoffs, when the 'Big 3' of LeBron James, Chirs Bosh and Dwayne Wade disposed of the Sixers in five games. Philadelphia and Miami split their season series 2-2 with the Sixers winning the first two and the Heat winning the last two. Three of the four games were decided by six points or less.
Game one will take place Saturday night in Philadelphia at 8:00 p.m. on ESPN. The remaining schedule is below.
