Well, this should be a good one. After all, Heat star Jimmy Butler used to play for the 76ers.
That means Butler used to be a teammate of Sixers star Joel Embiid. But now Butler has a team all his own, and the Heat just happened to finish with the top seed in the Eastern Conference. They are balanced, well-coached, confident.

Let us know who you think will win the series in the poll below.
