This premise holds concretely through the remainder of the tournament. The Warriors, ranked #1 in the Western Conference, have a logo that beats the Rockets’, ranked #4. The Nuggets, ranked #2, have a logo that beats the Trail Blazers’, ranked #3. The Bucks, ranked #1 in the Eastern Conference, have a logo that beats the Celtics’, ranked #4 (the same as their counterparts in the Western Conference). Likewise, the Raptors, ranked #2 in their conference, have a logo that beats the 76’ers, ranked #3.
