Knicks-Pistons and Nuggets-Clippers should be fun, I have both going 7

Dame being out hurts my interest in Bucks-Pacers but at the same time potentially seeing a healthy Giannis in the playoffs for the first time in a couple years is great for the game

Wolves-Lakers, as badly as would love to see the Wolves take that team out, I don’t trust them in the slightest. Luka kills Gobert teams, Randle never shows up in big games, and outside of Ant they have no one that can really make Luka have to work defensively

Rockets-Warriors with them finally getting a win over Steph would be a great story

But ultimately just want to watch great basketball regardless. NBA Playoffs all day & WrestleMania this weekend :banderas:

Dallas had 2 bigs that punished them that the Lakers pray Hayes can be.

and people forget, outside of game 5, every one of those games were close and were choked away in the last 2 minutes.

Yeah if Dame ain't healthy Pacers are winning that series, it sucks tho cause this recent stretch of Giannis games have been otherworldly numbers wise but it'll likely not lead to anywhere since they most likely will get packed up in R1.

With Luka and Bron I think they got the intelligence to play Rudy off the floor. There's a lot of interesting games coming up

I know some people hate the play in but that shyt is exciting like a game seven.

Take for instance Memphis vs Golden state and Ja vs Steph and Edey vs Draymond ..

I was gonna write Milwaukee off but they are a weirdly big team. Brook at the five and Ryan "secret shopper" Rollins at the one. With Kuz, Giannis and Taurean prince between them :dame:

Then they got gunners like KPJr and Gary Trent off the bench.

Chicago need to get their shyt together and beat us this year
I don't even care anymore. They really scrapped their way to the 13th Pick and if they get to the Playoffs, it's the 15th Pick.

:unimpressed:

Would have been completely fine staying at 10 with way better odds to move up but nooooooooooo let's win meaningless games in April brehs

Could just be because they won the only game that really mattered on the last day of the season, but the amount of Clippers hype I have seen over the last 24 hours is fascinating. It's even more crazy because it isn't like they just steamrolled the Warriors either.
