The 2022 NBA Playoffs are finally here as they officially get set to begin on Saturday as the Philadelphia 76ers play host to the Toronto Raptors in Game 1 of their Round 1 series.
Now that some of the play-in tournament is finished, now is the time for the full Round 1 schedule to be released.
With Game 1 set for Saturday at 6 p.m. EDT, Game 2 will be on Monday from the Wells Fargo Center before the series shifts north of the border for Game 3 on April 20 and Game 4 on April 23. The NBA will give the teams a couple of days off in between games up in Toronto.

This will be a tough series for Joel Embiid and the rest of the team. The Raptors may not have any big-name players that jump out, but they are a tough, physical basketball team that plays well together. This series should be a long one that probably goes the distance.
