If the Warriors and Magic started a series tomorrow, would you honestly believe ORL would beat GS?

I think that’s something lost on the FAKE OUTRAGE HOT TAKES about these things.

If the two teams played 100 times, I’d root for ORL 101 times.

But, I’m not stupid. If I had to bet money, I’d place it on GS 102 times out of 100.

I don’t care about Orlando’s potential. Don’t care about GS is washed (as a title contender.) THIS SEASON - 2023-2024 - I would easily pick GS over ORL in a playoff series.

That’s what power rankings are for. Anyone can just fucking look at the standings and list the teams in that order.
