They have no chance, but it'd be cool to see the Magic make some noise. Pacers would probably be my second choice. Can't root for any of the west teams, especially since the top 3 are all in our division, but if I had to choose one, probably the Wolves because of their history of haplessness, plus it's nice to see a team succeed after making an aggressive move like they did with Gobert. Definitely rooting for the Kings in the play-in.
Wolves are winless against the Suns this year and are matched up with... the Suns. The Bucks are also terrible against the Pacers.
Basketball is not dead to me.....but I do lean towards the "Fuck Them All" part. I am ok with Dame winning though. If I had to pick a team in the West I would probably go with Denver to repeat. I like Jokic and hate the rest of the teams
The local talker here is PHX said Edwards is 0-7 against Beal when he was with Washington and is 0-4 against him as a Sun. Interesting stat.
I'll be watching the Suns. They are great for our bar economy down here and I have many friends that own bars here.
I'm not angry about it or at the remaining teams, but I doubt I watch any basketball the rest of the year. I just don't care. I will be watching May 12, though!
West: For -> Thunder, Suns Against -> Warriors, Lakers, Pels East: For -> Magic, Pacers Against -> Heat
Ha, I am just the opposite. I tend to hate the teams where I lived. Except for the teams I grew up loving. (Blazers and Ducks). Every fan base is annoying but when you live there as an adult and you interact with the local fans......it is amplified. So any team in Utah (Jazz, Utes, BYU) or LA........ I tend to hate with a passion.
Im hopeful that the Bucks win it all with Dame and icing on the cake would be if he matches up against the heat and puts the dagger in them, a few time or more.
