    Teams we should be rooting against…

    Orlando they need Simons shooting and it’s obvious an early playoff exit might convince them.

    Bucks- we need them to decide to blow it up so our pick is better

    anyone other team? Hate the Lakers maybe them losing they would decide to trade for Ayton?

    I’d rather try and trade Ayton with our pick, try to net a blockbuster trade.

    Wish granted. They just beat ATL soundly but they'll be lucky to make it 5 games with the Celtiics.

    I will say, it is kinda cool to see Scottie Pippen vs Gary Payton in the postseason.

    Wow, can't believe how pro-Memphis these calls have been. The foul on Podziemski was questionable at best, and then the call on Looney was simply egregious.

    5 guys played tonight who I saw their Dad’s play: GP, Pippen, Jaren Jackson, Curry, and Cole Anthony. And Larry Nance was inactive.

    I can pretty much assure you nobody wants to see the Warriors right now. Just so much swagger on that team.

    Yeah, I have my doubts about that one. But Minny has been on a tear recently, so we'll see. Also, I just don't believe the Lakers can play defense if they're playing Austin Reeves and Luka at the same time.

    I guess we will find out which is more important in the playoffs. Good offense or good defense.
    Obviously, you want both, but this will be interesting for sure.

    The Association wants Lebron and Luka in the 2nd round, and the refs will make that happen.
