    Obviously we didn’t know that the Grizzlies would be this bad, but I remember the reactions when our group first dropped people said we had no chance and we’ve done this lmao

      yea, memphis was actually supposed to be the top band of the group, from the 1-3 of the west the previous season. And we also llucked into getting the worst 13-15 band in portland this season with the dame trade.

      Even if we lost to phoenix, it was kind of set up that whoever was second in this group was supposed to advance. Suns are actually in a good position provided they BTFO of Memphis when they play next. If one of pellies/nuggets lose their games, they should makke it

    Just curious who would we be facing in the knockout stages? Is it the wild card team (#4) from the West, then the winner facing the winner of #2 v #3 in the West?

    It’ll be cool if they did win this first one tbh but to quote one of the best sports movies of all time — “if you lose the last game of the season, then no one gives a shit.” Eyes in 18!

    No sarcasm here…

    Does anyone give a rat’s ass about this thing? I mean, I want to see them play well. This is just another attempt to hype the sport and I got nuthin’.
