The 2022 NBA Playoffs tip-off this weekend and the Milwaukee Bucks look to defend their title and become the first back-to-back champions since the 2017 and 2018 Golden State Warriors. Each of the four rounds consists of a best-of-7-series featuring some of the best basketball players in the world. Teams play a 2-2-1-1-1 format, which means the higher seed will host the first 2 games, the second 2 games are on the road, and if necessary, games 5-7 will alternate with the higher seed hosting games 5 and 7.

Below are the standings for the 2022 NBA Playoffs.
