Boston Celtics
The Boston Celtics who were the topseed finished the series on a less competitive path. They won the first round against the Miami Heat in five games. The Home side Miami Heat entered the game without the team’s star Jimmy Butler who scored 35 points in the last game seven of last season’s Eastern Conference Finals against the Celtics.
In the second playoff round, Boston again posted a 4-1 series win over the Cleveland Cavaliers, who played the final two games without All-Star Donovan Mitchell.

Indiana Pacers
The sixth stage was won by the Indiana Pacers despite some hiccups encountered by the team. For example, in the first round, they had to play six games in order to win the series against the Milwaukee Bucks who were obviously at a disadvantage given that Giannis Antetokounmpo was injured.
The Pacers eventually began to prevail over the New York Knicks, who were ahead 3-2 until injuries prevented them from advancing to the next round. The best player of the Pacers Jalen Brunson received a hand fracture in the seventh match during the battle between the Pacers and the Knicks.
