Game 1 of Round 1 for Sixers vs. Nets set for April 15 at 1 p.m. ET

The NBA announces that the Philadelphia 76ers and the Brooklyn Nets will begin their series with Game 1 on April 15 at 1 p.m. EDT.

The Philadelphia 76ers are officially done with the regular season following a 134-105 win over the Brooklyn Nets on Sunday afternoon at the Barclays Center and their attention now turns toward the postseason when they face that same Nets team.

While neither team played their main players in the finale on Sunday, that will obviously be much different when the teams match up in the postseason.

While the full series schedule isn’t out just yet, the Sixers and the Nets do know when their series will begin. Joel Embiid and the championship minded Sixers will play host to the Nets on April 15 at 1 p.m. EDT.

The Sixers are entering the playoffs as the No. 3 seed in the East and they will be looking to build off a strong regular season and go on a deep run in the postseason. Philadelphia has fallen in Round 2 of the postseason in four of the previous five seasons and they are looking to finally get over the hump this time around.
