Downloadable, Printable NBA Playoff Brackets

The NBA playoff season is here and with that comes the demand for free printable playoff brackets for personal use, office pools, or just to have some fun with friends. This article describes where you can find those brackets and gives a brief description of each so you do not have to personally visit each website to choose which bracket is best for you. The links to all the brackets mentioned can be found at the end of this article.

Breathingfire.com's brackets are already filled in and updated to show which teams have already advanced during the first round. Instead of the team name typed out, this bracket features each team's logo in color. It is arranged with the Eastern and Western Conference on opposite sides and in the background of each side the Western and Eastern Conference logos are shown. It claims that the image is high resolution so you should get a pretty good looking bracket when you print it out.

Printofficepool.com's brackets come completely blank so you have to fill in the team names. It is set up so that the Eastern and Western conference are on top of each other instead of side by side. This bracket is convenient for pools because it has a place at the top for the player's name and score and a place at the bottom to put the prediction of the total amount of points in the last game for a tiebreaker.

Chiff.com's bracket is the traditional simple black and white bracket. It has the teams in the first round filled in along with their seeds and is arranged with the Eastern Conference on the opposite side as the Western conference. This bracket would be good for personal use but may not be as easy to score for pools as some of the other available brackets.

Docsports.com's bracket is arranged with the Eastern Conference on the opposite side of the Western Conference. It has the first round teams filled in along with their season records. The only drawback with this bracket is that there is a short paragraph at the bottom talking about how much clients of Doc's Sports earned on the NBA playoffs last year.
