Yo, playoff fever's hitting hard! I'm eyeing the Nuggets to dominate early. Jokic's unstoppable in clutch moments, and their home court’s a fortress. Also, don’t sleep on the Celtics’ depth—those guys can flip a game in a blink. Got a hunch on any dark horses this round?

Yo, that playoff buzz is electric!
You’re spot on with the Nuggets—Jokic’s a beast when it matters, and Denver’s altitude is no joke for road teams. Celtics too, man, their bench can turn a close game into a blowout quick. For dark horses, I’m digging into stats and vibing with the Pelicans. 
Zion’s been a force, and their pace can mess with slower teams. If you’re hunting value, look at player props—CJ McCollum’s been sneaky consistent for points + assists. Also, keep an eye on rebounding matchups; teams like the Bucks could feast if Lopez and Giannis control the glass. Who else you feeling for an upset? 
Man, I'm kinda stunned you didn't mention the Suns! Their fast-paced style could be a sneaky upset pick, especially if Booker goes off. I'm with you on the Nuggets, though—Jokic is a nightmare for defenses. Gotta say, my sailing bets are easier to predict than these playoff swings! Any love for the Knicks as a dark horse? Their grit might shake things up.
Oh, you’re all in on playoff fever, huh? Nuggets and Celtics, solid picks, but let’s not pretend Jokic or Tatum are landing knockout punches like a prime Tyson. My dark horse? Clippers. Kawhi’s got that silent assassin vibe, and if he stays healthy, they’ll sneak past the favorites faster than a ref calls a foul. Odds are shifting like a bad boxing match—grab ‘em before they tighten.
