Official Utah/Minnesota/Philadelphia Pick Watch

[Bodhi]

I wish I had your confidence.

I was confident OKC was beating NO last night. They are better than their record says IMO. A lot of close losses and not certain they were fully committed to being good/winning games all year. Now that they are in the play-in I think they beating Minny and I'd call it by more than 7pts too.

Of all the playin teams in the West, they clearly looked like the best team so far. Minnesota looked just barely worse than LA, and the Lakers were a tire fire inside a dumpster. New Orleans looks like they didn’t really want to play in the playoffs and the Thunder looked young, hungry and aggressive. I think they roll the Wolves and there’s some wind behind them going into next year.

Hope y’all ^ are right. Would be killer.

I feel better about OKC's chances than I would NOP's. Zion dunking in the pre-game than walks over to the bench, OK good luck guys. That situation sucks.

Yeah, saw that. Thats a whole vibe man.

Zion can eat my ***. Being an immature little **** doesn’t mean being little or brandishing a gun or doing drugs. How about not weigh 300 ****ing pounds at 6’ 6” and actually be on a team? Just a thought.

If I’m NOP, I play him into December and pray he stays healthy, then I trade him for whatever I can get. No amount of talent matters if you not only don’t play basketball, but you won’t do the most basic maintenance to get on the court or even appear to want to.

 

[Shad]

Zion has played a grand total of 114 games over 4 years. That's not even a season and a half over 4 years.

Toxic contract

 

[idiot]

Like moths drawn to a flame ...

The basketball gods have severely punished us every time this season that we think the Wolves don't have a chance.

Yet here we are again, before the biggest game of the year, whooping it up with how confident we are that the Wolves will surely lose.

Woe unto you all who refuse to read the signs of the times!!!

OKC wins going away.

Dort is going to force Ant Edwards into some really tough shots, and that's assuming Edwards is 100% healthy. Dort used to be about the toughest defender on Donovan I can recall. Meanwhile, Conley isn't going to slow down SGA much and could struggle offensively in that matchup. This actually isn't a good match up for Minnesota unless KAT and Rudy can dominate inside.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

The one thing I've learned about Minnesota this year is that when you think they are going to turn a corner and win, they lose and when you think they are about to roll over and die they surprise you.

When I read this sentence, the only thing I could think of was, "like in the back of a Volkswagen?"

Wow. Mallrats reference. Haven’t seen that around here. Hopefully Ant survives.
