2019 NBA Playoffs: Bracket, scores, results, series schedules, path to Finals for all 16 postseason teams

The NBA schedule has reached the midway point for the majority of the opening postseason series, and the play has been nothing short of spectacular. While there are a few series that are getting one-sided, the action has been extremely fast-paced and heart-pounding for the most part. 

The Brooklyn Nets and Philadelphia 76ers have certainly produced an exciting series, and nothing changed on Saturday afternoon. Philadelphia saw star center Joel Embiid return to the lineup and scored 31 points in a 112-108 victory over Brooklyn. Tobias Harris also added 24 points in the winning effort while Caris LeVert scored a team-high 25 points for the Nets. Philly now leads 3-1 after winning three straight in the series, and can close out Brooklyn at home on Tuesday.

In other action, the Denver Nuggets evened their series with the Spurs at 2-2 behind standout performances from Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray as the two combined for 53 points in the win. Later on, the Bucks took a 3-0 lead in their best-of-seven series against the Pistons despite Blake Griffin’s return. Finally, the Utah Jazz failed to defend their home court against the Houston Rockets after a pair of lopsided losses in Houston.

Here is a look at the bracket, and each team’s path to the Larry O’Brien trophy.
