2016 NBA Playoffs Six Teams To Watch

With one more month until the 2016 NBA playoffs start, the race in both the East and West is as close as ever. The 8th and the 9th seed in the East are separated by half a game, with the 6th seed also only two games in front of 9th seed. In the West, the difference between the 8th and 9th seed is only two games, making the stretch run extremely interesting. Here are six teams that should become more and more interesting as the 2016 NBA playoffs approach.

Detroit Pistons

The Pistons went all in at the trade deadline, getting Tobias Harris from Orlando Magic to form a “mini Big-Three” with Drummond, Reggie Jackson and Harris. And while some people expected quick results, in reality, Detroit is playing 50% basketball since the trade. But that might be a good thing. The good news for the Pistons is they have only 7 more games on the road. But the bad news is they have lots of games against direct competition, starting with two games against the Wizards, a game against Chicago, two against the Hornets, and then some against higher tier Eastern teams: 2 against Atlanta, 2 against Miami, and one against Cleveland. The Wizards game are extremely important, since Washington leads the season series 2:0, and one more win will ensure the Wizards the tiebreaker. Detroit Pistons tickets for the 2016 NBA playoffs games start at just $35.00 per ticket.

Washington Wizards

Speaking of the Wizards, they are 2 and a half games outside of the playoff picture, but they can make up ground by beating the Pistons. Detroit is not in the playoffs, but they are just half a game behind Chicago for the 8th spot. The biggest challenge for the Wizards will be the Atlanta Hawks, as they have three more games against the 5th best team in the East at the moment. The good news, however, is they have several games against bottom feeders left: 2 against the Nets, 1 versus Phoenix, one versus Lakers, one versus Knicks, and one versus Sixers. Get Washington Wizards tickets for their 2016 NBA playoff games today.

Chicago Bulls

The Bulls got Jimmy Butler back, but it might be too late. Sitting at the 8th spot, with just half a game lead is not something that Chicago envisioned at any point during the season. The Bulls were supposed to fight with Cleveland for East supremacy, but that hasn’t happened yet. And it doesn’t get easier down the road with only 8 home games left. Opponent wise, the Bulls have one more game against the Cavs, one against the Raptors, two versus the Heat, one with the Pistons, one with Indiana, one with San Antonio and one with Washington. The silver lining is that the Bulls will decide their own fate, with games against direct opponents like Washington, Indiana, and Detroit. Chicago Bulls schedule for their 2016 NBA Playoffs games at the United Center start at just $85.00 per ticket.

Portland Trail Blazers

Let’s start from the good news. The Blazers are currently at the 6th spot in the West, despite losing every player of their starting lineup from last season not named Damian Lillard. They have no chance of getting the 5th spot, but staying at 6 is very plausible scenario. Now, for the bad news. Take a look at their schedule: 2 more versus Golden State, 2 more versus OKC, one versus San Antonio, one versus Clippers. That is six games against the top 4 teams in the West. And to top it that, they have 2 more games against Dallas, a team that is just half a game behind them in the standings. The Blazers will likely make the playoffs, but staying at 6th spot gives them a chance against an OKC team that doesn’t look as scary as the Warriors and Spurs. Portland Trail Blazers tickets for the 2016 NBA Playoffs begin at just $25.00 per ticket.

Warriors Schedule February

Warriors February Schedule Home & Away

Sports, , , , , , ,

The Warriors February schedule should be an interesting month for Golden State. The best team in the West will be pressed by the schedule. While it is hard to imagine someone catching up on the Warriors for the top spot in the Western Conference, the Warriors February Schedule projects more away games, and some of them versus the best teams in the East (Atlanta, Washington, Toronto, and Cleveland). Without further ado, here are some of the most important games in the Warriors February schedule.

The 2013/14 Golden State Warriors February Schedule ended with a 7-4 record. The Warriors went 4-2 at the Oracle Arena and 3-2 on the road. The Warriors were 1-0 on 0 days rest. 5-3 on 1 days rest. 0-1 on 3 days rest and 1-0 on 6 days rest. Pre NBA All Star Game the Warriors were 2-3 but post NBA All star game they were 5-1 during the Warriors February Schedule.

The 2015 Warriors February schedule looks like this

Warriors @ Kings Sleep Train Arena February 3rd
Starting price $56, Average price $88
While it seems like the Warriors are going for an easy win, this is the first game of February, and it starts on the road as the first game of a back to back set. It is true that the Warriors beat the Sacramento Kings three times already, but there lies the challenge. There is no question that the Kings would love to win one versus the top team in the West, and they will be motivated to do so.

Warriors @ Hawks Phillips Arena, February 6th
Starting price $111, Average price $150
The price of the tickets is the best factor how important is this game. The most expensive ticket in previous seasons between the two teams was priced $78 in 2014. But this year, the Hawks and the Warriors are the best teams in their respective conference. The teams are ranked first (Warriors) and fourth in defensive rating and third (Warriors) and fifth in offensive rating. Warriors Steph Curry and Kyle Korver are the best 3pt shooters in the league, so expect them to rain 3s.View all Hawks vs Warriors Tickets for the Phillips Arena.

Warriors @ Knicks Madison Square Garden February 7th
Starting price $88, Average price $152
Steph Curry has scored his career high points at the Garden in 2013. It was the highest point total scored in the Garden since 2009. Therefore, another visit of Steph in the Garden is sure to attract visitors and viewers. Given the fact how awful the Knicks are this year, fans might be in for another career night even though the Warriors are playing on the second night of a back to back.

Spurs @ Warriors Oracle Arena February 20th
Starting price $102, Average price $115
The Spurs are one of the few teams that have beaten Golden State this year, and the only one to do so in Oracle Arena. San Antonio is slowly gaining steam and making a push towards a higher spot in the rankings. For the Warriors, playing the Spurs is always a chance to show off and earn some praises. It is not every day that you get to play the Champs. View Warriors vs Spurs tickets for the Oracle Arena.

Warriors @ Cavaliers Quicken Loans Arena February 26th
Starting price $55, Average price $96
The Warriors will be in the middle of a tough road trip as they play the Washington Wizards on 24th, and in Toronto the day after Cleveland. But the game versus the Cavaliers is the most intriguing and appealing, as the duel between Kyrie Irving and Steph Curry is sure to generate buzz. Another point is that Curry is the leading candidate for the MVP, an award Lebron James has won few times. View Cavaliers vs Warriors Tickets at the Quicken Loans Center.

Atlanta Hawks February Schedule

Atlanta Hawks February Schedule Of NBA Games

Sports, , , , , ,

The Atlanta Hawks February Schedule is very kind to them. While there are duels with the top teams in both conferences, there are also duels with bottom feeders such as Minnesota and Boston. Atlanta has managed to win almost all of their games following Thanksgiving, losing only twice since then, but the real test is still ahead. The top spot in the East is nearly wrapped up. Even though there almost 40 games to be played, the Hawks have a huge lead of 7+ games, and they are likely to fall down.

The Hawks February Schedule of games at the Philips Center is averaging $105.00 per ticket. Hawks average ticket prices are up 16.66% since the January 1st. Atlanta is looking to have a much better February in the 2014-15 then last season. In the 2013-14 Hawks February schedule of games they went 2-10.

The Hawks February schedule looks like this

.

Wizards @ Hawks Phillips Arena February 4
Starting price $16, Average price $40
The Wizards are the second best team in the East, but the Hawks have already spanked them twice, both home and on the road. However, the duel between the top two teams in the conference is always appealing, and who knows, Washington might finally find a way to beat Atlanta. The task starts on the defensive end, where the Hawks get too many open looks and transition points.

Warriors @ Hawks Phillips Arena February 6th
Starting price $111 | Average price $150
The duel everyone waits for will finally happen. Nobody expected the Warriors and the Hawks to be the top teams at this point of the season. However, the two teams are playing the best basketball at the moment. Both teams are in the midst of a great winning streak. Who will win the first duel between the two? We will surely find out and then wait for their next duel in March.

Hawks @ Celtics TD Garden February 11th
Starting price $17 | Average price $37
As mention, the Hawks February Schedule includes few games versus easy opponents. The Celtics are one of those teams that might come as a welcome breather for the Hawks. Even though Boston is playing good lately, winning three of the past four games, Boston is not a team that can scare the Hawks off. This game is also one of the few road games the Hawks play in February.

Raptors @ Hawks Phillips Arena February 20th
Starting price $31 | Average price $88
The Raptors are the only team to beat the Hawks two times this season. Additionally, the Raptors are also one of the few teams to score 100+ points two times versus the Hawks. Toronto was the best team in the East a month ago, but the Hawks have gotten the first spot, and even made a huge difference that it will be hard for anyone to catch them. The duel will feature an interesting battle at the point guard position, where Teague will be tested versus Kyle Lowry.

Mavericks @ Hawks Phillips Arena February 25th
Starting price $27 | Average price $45
The Mavs are the second best offensive team in the league, and will surely pose a challenge for the defense of the Hawks. The first matchup between the two teams was a close one, with Atlanta winning 105 – 102. The Mavs had Rondo back then, but he is now more adapted to his role in the offense and defense.

Wizards February Schedule

Wizards February Schedule Of NBA Games 2015

Sports, , , , , , ,

The Wizards enter a crucial month for their season. February is short month, with a week rest during the All Star game (for those who do not participate), but very important month. Teams usually gain steam after the break, and Wizards are one of those teams that could use the time off. The Wizards could also use a push in the standings, as they are currently ranked second behind Atlanta, but they are closely followed by the Raptors, Bulls and Cavaliers. Being second allows the Wizards to have home court advantage up until the East Finals.

In the 2014 Wizards February schedule they went 8-5 in their 13 games. The Wizards averaged 105.2 points a game. In 2013 the Wizards went 7-5 averaging 94.9 points a game. In 2012 they went 3-11 and averaged 98.6 points. Each of their last three seasons the Wizards February schedule of games they have averaged the most points of any month.

Wizards February schedule ticket prices since the 2012 season have been $68.00 per ticket on average. The 2014/15 season is no different as the average ticket price for games Wizards tickets is $67.00 per ticket.

The Washington Wizards February Schedule will include six home games at the Verizon Center DC. The Wizards February Schedule of road games will include six away games.

Five key games in the Wizards February Schedule.

Wizards @ Hawks, Philips Arena, February 4,
Starting price $22, Average price $40
Everything points towards the Hawks being the best team in the East. While many assumed that the road to the Finals in the East will go through Chicago and Cleveland, Atlanta is playing the best basketball in the league right now. Additionally, the Atlanta Hawks won the first two duels between the teams, so it is time for the Wizards to show their worth.

Wizards @ Raptors, Air Canada Center, February 11,
Starting price $36, Average price $55
The first duel between the two teams finished with a big win for the Toronto Raptors. They will meet by the end of January in Washington, and their duel in Toronto will be the last before the playoffs. Simply put, the Wizards could use a win to get some separation for the second seed in the East. They currently lead the Raptors by 1.5 game.

Washington Wizards February ScheduleCavaliers @ Wizards, Verizon Center, February 20,
Starting price $66, Average price $117
It has been a while since the Cavs and the Wizards were rivals. Back in the time Gilbert Arenas was running the show. Now, the Wizards will try to hold on for the second seed in the East. The Cavaliers are gaining steam, and Lebron James is playing at an MVP level after sleeping the first half of the season. This will be the first game after the All Star break, so both teams should be well rested.

Warriors @ Wizards, Verizon Center, February 24,
Starting price $36, Average price $48
The best team in the league comes to town, as John Wall and his buddy Bradley Beal go against the Golden State Warriors Splash Brothers. Wall announced he and Beal are the best backcourt in the league before the season started. He will have the chance to prove it. The Wizards might find it hard to score versus the best defense in the league, and they will have their hands full on the other end as well.

Wizards @ Timberwolves, Target Center, February 25,
Starting price $7, Average price $16
Even the best teams can slip versus a bad team. The risk is always there. For Washington, this is a chance for an easy win against the Timberolves, after playing the Warriors the previous night. However, traveling from one coast to another, and then playing a game on the road is never easy. That is the challenge for the Wizards in this game.

Raptors Ticket Prices Drop -40% At Home Games

Sports, , , , , , , ,

The Toronto Raptors started the season strong, but the injury to DeMar DeRozan was a big problem for them. However, the team is getting back on track, and they are on pace to win the Atlantic Division for the second year in a row. But with the improved play, the appetite of the team has grown, and they look to build on the success from last year’s playoffs, and do better this year. With the East seemingly wide open, the Raptors have a chance to get to the East Finals at least. Here are their most important games remaining on the 2015 raptors schedule.

Toronto Raptors Ticket Prices currently for their home games at the Air Canada Center average $65.00 per ticket. Toronto Raptors ticket prices have fallen -40% from their $110.00 per ticket average in 2014.

Raptors @ Wizards, Verizon Center, January 31,
Starting price $41, Average price $60
The Raptors and the Wizards will probably fight for the second seed in the East, which guarantees home court advantage until the Eastern Conference Finals. Given the support the Raptors enjoy at their home, and the atmosphere, there is probably not a team in the NBA that would prefer to play in Toronto during a playoff matchup. Home court will help Toronto a lot in the playoffs, and the road for higher seed goes through Washington. The 2015 Raptors Schedule has the Wizards & Raptors playing twice. View all Raptors vs Wizards Tickets for the Verizon Center.

Bucks @ Raptors, Air Canada Center, February 2,
Starting price $23, Average price $46
If the playoffs started today, the Bucks and the Raptors would meet in the first round. Chances are, they might even meet in the first round come April. The Milwaukee Bucks are probably stuck in the 6th spot, with likely chances of moving up, and no team that can overtake them. The Raptors, however, are not bound for the 3rd spot. Their two duels this season were wins by the Raptors, and they should win one more just so they can demoralize the Bucks before the playoffs. Raptors ticket prices start at $23.00 per ticket. View all Raptors vs Bucks tickets for the Air Canada Center on the 2015 Raptors Schedule.

Raptors @ Hawks, Philips Arena, February 20,
Starting price $25, Average price $36
The Raptors beat the Hawks in October and November. However, since the Hawks went on a roll, the teams meet in Toronto, and the Hawks routed Toronto. Now, the Raptors have the chance to return the favor. They do not necessarily need to rout the Hawks, but a win or at least being competitive in the game would show the Raptors can handle the hottest team in the league at the moment. View all Raptors vs Hawks Tickets for the Philips Arena & Air Canada Center on the 2015 Raptors Schedule.

Warriors @ Raptors, Air Canada Center,
February 27, Starting price $83, Average price $134
Despite the loss of Derozan for a month, the Raptors have the 4th best offense in the league. The Warriors, on the other hand, are the best defensive team in the league this season. In their first duel, the Raptors managed to score 100+ points, but they allowed nearly 130 points. How they can handle a great defensive team like the Warriors will show how far the Raptors can go in the playoffs. Raptors ticket prices start at $83.00 per ticket for this game. View all Warriors vs Raptors tickets at the Air Canada Center.

Bulls @ Raptors, Air Canada Center,
March 25, Starting price $61, Average price $85
Luckily for the Raptors, the Bulls are going through a tough stretch, and they didn’t overtake Toronto’s spot in the rankings. The bad news, however, is that Chicago beat Toronto twice this season, and with one more win they will have the tie breaker should the win/loss column is equal. The teams play on March in Chicago as well. Raptors ticket prices start at $61.00 per ticket for this game. View all Bulls vs Raptors tickets at the Air Canada Center.

Chicago Bulls Ticket Price Drops 14.6% in 2015

Sports, , , , , ,

It took few months, but the Bulls look like the championship contender everyone envisioned them to be. Derrick Rose is as healthy as ever, he is relentless to the basket, the signing of Pau Gasol is the most underrated signing of the summer, and Jimmy Butler is arguably the best player on the team, and one of the top 10-15 in the league. Tom Thibodeau is still manning the sidelines, expecting and demanding perfection and effort from his players, and the results are finally showing on the scoreboard. Their defense is not up the level we are accustomed to see, but their offense is top notch. With that being said, the season is long, and the following five are some of the most important games for the Bulls.

The Chicago Bulls have moved into first place in attendance at the United Center with an average of 21,944 passing the Cleveland Cavaliers at 20,562 per game. In 2014 the Bulls average attendance was 21,716 with a 17,551 attendance average on the road according to ESPN. At the end of the 2014 the Chicago Bulls ticket price average was $120 per ticket which has dipped 14.16% to start off the 2015 season to $103.00 per ticket.

Bucks @ Bulls, January 10th United Center
Starting price $74, Average price $98
Nobody expected the Bucks to compete for the division title in the Central division. But months into the season, the Bucks are competitive as ever, which makes their duel with the Bulls even more interesting. Chicago won the first duel in Milwaukee, and the Bucks might look for revenge on the opposing team floor. View all Bulls vs Bucks tickets for the United Center.

Cavaliers @ Bulls, February 12th United Center
Starting price $155, Average price $266
By February, LeBron James should be back in uniform, the Cavs should have things figured out, and this might be the best duel the two teams have in the regular season. The first clash of the Central division rivals was won by Cleveland, and it was a high scoring game. But that was in October, when Derrick Rose was rusty, and Butler was a role player. Now, Rose is healthy and spry, and Butler looks like the second or third best shooting guard in the league. View all Bulls vs Cavaliers Tickets for the United Center.

Wizards @ Bulls, March 3rd United Center
Starting price $55, Average price $109
The Wizards were the team to eliminate the Bulls from the 2014 playoffs. And it wasn’t pretty, with Washington racing to 4-1 advantage. The Bulls were low on offensive firepower last year, but this time, things look different. This will also be a testing game, where teams looking for a long playoffs run experiment between each other. Both the Bulls and the Wizards are poised to be in the playoffs, but just for how long, it is unknown yet.View all Wizards vs Bulls Tickets for the United Center.

Raptors @ Bulls, March 20th United Center
Starting price $75, Average price $115
Considering how tight the race is in the East, which happens for the first time in years, wins versus top 4 teams are important as ever. The Bulls beat the Raptors two times already, but if they manage to win one more, they will hold the tiebreaker, a nifty asset in the playoffs. Hopefully, for the March game, fans can see both the Raptors and the Bulls backcourt healthy. Head to head matchups between Butler/Rose and Lowry/DeRozan are delight, and the real winners are the fans who get to see them. View all Bulls vs Raptors Tickets for the United Center.

Hawks @ Bulls, April 15th United Center
Starting price $40, Average price $67
To close out the season, Chicago welcomes Atlanta. The teams are currently in the top 4 in the East, and considering all the facts, they might stay there by the end of the season. The Hawks won the first matchup, and the teams play in January in Chicago as well. However, the last game of the season might decide which team is ranked 1-2-3-4. The race is tight in the East!

Hardly anyone can figure these Cavaliers. They go on a run, then loose few games, then they mix things up, and then people start pointing fingers. A team with LeBron James on it is sure to qualify for the playoffs, but what then is the real question. And how high will they be ranked?

The Cavaliers still lead the league in attendance according to ESPN with 18 games they are at 370,116 with an average of 20,562 per game which is up 26.98% average in 2013. In December of 2014 the Cavaliers Ticket price average was $240.00 per ticket and starting out the New Year with no Lebron and average play by the Cavs their ticket price average has dropped 18.75% to $195 per ticket. Only the New York Knicks ticket price average drop of 20.26% from $153.00 to $122.00 is a larger drop.

Here is a look at five upcoming games for the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Bulls @ Cavliers, January 19, Starting price $76, Average price $189
After their five game road trip, the Cavs come back home to host the Chicago Bulls, their division rivals. LeBron James should be back in uniform for the game, a fact with which the table is set for a great game. When the season started, the Bulls and the Cavs were considered favorites to win the East, but they are trailing surprise teams such as Toronto Raptors and Atlanta Hawks.

Lakers @ Cavliers, February 8, Starting price $103, Average price $167
It was a long time before James and Kobe played against each other as members of the Cavs and the Lakers. There were times when fans were dreaming of a finals matchup between Cleveland and Los Angeles. That hasn’t happened, and it doesn’t look like it will happen any time soon. For the time being, fans can enjoy the duel between Kobe and LeBron. You can view Cavaliers vs Lakers tickets for the Quicken Loans Arena. The Lakers vs Cavaliers ticket prices for the Staples Center have also dropped 18.18% from their get in the door high of $110.00 to $85.00 per ticket.

Heat @ Cavliers, February 11, Starting price $84, Average price $225
James went to Miami this season for Christmas, but he hasn’t hosted his old team yet. He will have the chance to play host for the Heat on February 11th. Before teaming up with Dwayne Wade, James and his buddy had some of the best duels between them. Everything points to this game being one of the better as well.

Pistons @ Cavliers, April 13, Starting price $46, Average price $79
You might say this is a meaningless, division game. However, the Detroit Pistons were the ones to embarrass the Cavs on their home court this season, causing LeBron James to question the defense of the Cavaliers. James and the Pistons do share a history, and the second game in the Quicken Loans Arena should be the one James will be waiting for revenge.

Wizards @ Cavliers, April 15, Starting price $67, Average price $117
The Cavs close out the season versus one of the currently top 3 teams in the East. This will also be a duel between two highly gifted point guards in John Wall and Kyrie Irving. Both of them were the number one pick, and both were supposed to save their franchise. Kyrie has LeBron now, and John Wall considers himself and Bradley Beal the best back court in the league. With all that in mind, the duel also serves as booster for playoff confidence. You can view Wizards vs Cavaliers tickets for the Quicken Loans Arena.

Six Games The Hawks Need To Win In 2015

Sports, , , , , , , ,

Surprise, surprise! 30 games into the season, and the team many expected to be in the lottery or fight for a playoff spot, is second in the East. For the past month, the Hawks are one of the top 3 teams in the league. The players and the staff managed to block all the Danny Ferry rumors and media rumblings, and are now looking to take advantage of the situation in the East. There is no clear favorite in the East, unlike the past 3-4 seasons, when Miami was the team to beat. At the moment, the East is wide open, and everyone have a chance, so why not the Hawks? There are still important games to play, and the following 5 are the most important for the Hawks.

Wizards @ Hawks, January 11, Starting price $40, Average price $46
The Hawks and the Wizards are in the top 4 teams in the East. They are also in a wire to wire race for the division title in the SouthEast. The Hawks won the first game in Washington, and if they can capitalize and win at home, they will have better chance to hold the tiebreaker with the Wizards. A division title guarantees home court advantage in the first round at least, and considering rankings at the moment, Hawks and Wizards might play in the second round of the playoffs.

Hawks at Raptors, January 16, Starting price $73, Average price $120
If the season ended today, the Raptors would be first in the East, and the Hawks would be second. The Raptors seem to be dominating the Hawks this year, as they beat them twice, once at home, and once on the road. For the Hawks, it is important to get a win versus the top team in the East, at least for confidence. And the race for the top spot is still wide open. Both teams are playing awesome basketball recently, so the duel in Canada will be extremely fun. View all Raptors vs Hawks Tickets for the Air Canada Center.

Warriors @ Hawks, February 6, Starting price $22, Average price $78
The Hawks haven’t played the Warriors yet. Both their defense and offense will be tested versus one of the best teams in the league. If Andrew Bogut is healthy by then, the Hawks might have troubles scoring. And if there is one team that shoots 3s as well as the Hawks that is the Warriors. Additionally, Korver and Curry are two of the players defenses pay most attention to, and players opponents are glued to. Therefore, it will be fun to see how they handle each other.

Cavaliers @ Hawks, March 6th, Starting Price $89, Average price $189
The Hawks have beaten the Cavaliers twice this season out of the three meetings so far and this last meeting could have big playoff implications for home court advantage. Cav’s Lebron James is averaging 25.2 points a game versus Hawks Jeff Teague’s 16.9. Big Man Kevin Love is pulling down 10.1 rebounds a game right now versus Paul Millsap’s 8.1. While Atlanta is on a hot streak winning 8 of their last games the Cavaliers are still looking to pull things together winning just 5 of their last 10.

Hawks vs Spurs, March 20, Starting price $36, Average price $76
They call the Hawks the San Antonio Spurs of the East. And with Mike Budenholzer on the sidelines, a former Spurs assistant, that is definitely true. Budenholzer has managed to copy the space, move the ball, corner 3s system that the Spurs employ to perfection. And the results are showing. The first game between the two was a close one, with the Spurs prevailing 94-92.Hawks vs Warriors Tickets for the AT&T Center.

Hawks at Bulls, April 15, Starting price $41, Average price $111
For the Hawks, this is their last game of the season. Considering the playoff race in the East is as close as ever, the last game might decide whether a team finishes 3rd, 4th of 5th. The Bulls are also one of the top teams in the East, and winning against them just before the playoffs start is a confidence booster. Add the difficulty of playing on the road, and the Hawks have a hard task before them.Bulls vs Hawks Tickets for the AT&T Center.
