The 2018 NBA playoffs are in the books, and they featured plenty of standout performers. Which players performed best on the biggest stage?

The NBA Playoffs are over for another season, and the inevitable has happened. The Warriors are champions again, Kevin Durant is Finals MVP and the dynasty rolls on unchallenged.

Only, the dynasty wasn’t unchallenged, and the result didn’t seem inevitable for much of the playoffs. This postseason was full of memorable performances from a range of players – some were expected to dominate, and others surprised us all.

With the playoffs in the books and the post-NBA apathy already setting in, it’s time to look back on the players who left their mark this postseason and pick our NBA All-Playoff Teams.

These selections will take into account the individual performance, team success and importance of role for each player. Some selections will come as no surprise (see: James, LeBron), while some exploits may have already been forgotten in the buzz of the Finals.
