Fukk Memphis for this
Portland just beat them on FridayOrlando feels like a team ready to quit so even without Embiid I think Philly still gets them and then Charlotte sends them to Cancun
Out West I think the Clippers jump Portland, Kawhi ends up taking over

I want to see New blood in the playoffs too. Go Hornets and Sixers. I know the sixers are a playoff regular but I still rather see them there than the boring and pathetic magic.( What a oxymoron lol)I have zero desire to see the fukking Heat or Magic in a 7-game series
Please make quick work of them
I feel like Miami is gonna beat Charlotte on Tuesday as LaMelo goes 5-23.![]()

I want to see New blood in the playoffs too. Go Hornets and Sixers. I know the sixers are a playoff regular but I still rather see them there than the magic.
I cant want to see kon and lamelo play against the pistons in round 1.
Toronto too. Raps are back in the playoffs for the first time Since 2022 !Both those Florida teams are so meh and don’t need any success that would make them even think of running it back as is next year.
I honestly feel the same way about Philly (Embiid/PG) and Cleveland is one more fukk up away…
Whereas Atlanta and Charlotte feel like a breath of fresh air
Won the scoring title and got another all-star selection. He ain't lose out too bad.Does anybody know anything about the 62 game provision if you have an injury that ends your season?
Anyways if Luka wasn’t constantly bytching, he wouldn’t have stacked all those techs and wouldn’t have been suspended that one game. Consequences![]()
