    Every year this week we've had a thread about who we are rooting for around the league the last few days of the season. I guess it depends on who we want to play, but what do you guys think?

    Anybody to beat the Spurs, Clippers and Warriors in the playoffs, for now I want New Orleans to beat out OKC for the 8th seed

    I want Houston and both L.A. teams to catch bird flu.

    Oh, and lose. I want them to lose, too.

    Part of me wants to face the Rockets in the WCF and sweep them so I want us to beat them badly, embarass them to the point of blowing up their team

    I'd rather they continue to be mediocre for the next 3+ years.

    I like N'Orleans and don't like OKC, but if OKC miss the playoffs their pick is protected, and knowing them, it'd be top 3. Let 'em squeak in and have Westbrook tire Curry out.

    Of course i want the Blazers to win but this year if it cannot be the Blazers i would love to see the Warriors Roll to the Championship. They have earned it and they are having a very special year.

    If OKC wins the lotto with the worst possible odds, I will give up on the NBA entirely. No way it happens unless you have a lock full of tin foil hats

    Personally I don't care who we play.
    We're locked into the 4th seed.
    Let Spurs/Rockets/Clippers/Grizz fight it out for 2/3/5/6 seeds.

    I want my Blazers healthy and rested for the playoffs.

    Ok I'm sorry I know this has been answered but just to be clear let's assume we are locked into the 4th seed and not going to move up. If so, assuming we are tied with the 5th seed, are any teams that we would not have the tie breaker against?

    No there is no team because the first tiebreaker is division winner. A division winner can't fall further than 4th.

    Ok that's what I thought. Thank you. So, that means for us to tie (assuming we win out) HOU has to lose 3 games to be tied, MEM need to lose 2 games, the Clippers 1 game and the Spurs 1 game.

    I want the Spurs to win both games against the Rockets. Then things get interesting.

    I would love for the Spurs to do that! it would be nice for the Clips to lose 2 as well. And while we at it, can Memphis lose a couple too???
