Following one of the greatest regular seasons statistically in NBA history, teams are gearing up to make a championship run, as the playoffs are officially here.

French comic book artist Asur Misoa has started a trend over the past few years by depicting the first-round matchups with creative illustrations.

Misoa's artistry stems from the teams' mascots, putting a fun, cartoon-like twist on the pairings.
