I agree, total shitbag. If you want out, do it quietly, don't piss off the fans who pay money every game to go and see you.

Well, the Pistons made the playoffs by beating the lowly Knicks. Seems like a tiny accomplishment to me.

Any 8 seed team will. Giannis and the gang are too much.

Every other potential 8 seed gave us trouble this year. The Heat and Hornets in particular, so I’m glad it’s Detroit. Who knows though, maybe Thon Maker will go off in his revenge tour and knock the Bucks out of the playoffs.

So it should be a very good series. Nice! I have no personal preference for who wins, but I’m sure I’ll end up watching parts of a game or two.

Someone really needs to knock out Golden State. It's no fun when one superteam manages to dominate over the rest of the league and nobody else can catch up to them. The question is: which team has the capabilities to beat GS?

I'm looking at Milwaukee. If Lebron's bitch ass could beat them with that team of D-league rejects called the Cavs, then Antetokounmpo should be able to kick their asses back to Oakland for years to come.

Course if we're talking within their own conference, I'm still willing to delude myself into saying Houston could do it. You know, if Beard Boy doesn't become a brick layer again.

You'll be fine. Without Nurkić, Portland isn't going anywhere.

Nuggets maybe. Rockets are a longer shot. The Bucks or whatever team comes from the East may be the best chance.
