Who is the team you most don’t want to see in a series?

I guess I should put Boston but i’m keeping it out west and it is either Denver or Dallas for me. Honestly I think I might rather play Denver than Dallas right now.

At this point I am happy just being in the playoffs in the first round, so the teams I least want to see are the Lakers and Warriors in a playin.

Assuming we actually make it, I'd want to see Denver the least, followed by OKC.

Agreed We still have to handle our business against 3 tough teams.

Agreed. Mavs are firing on all cylinders and Luka/Kyrie have excellent chemistry. Devin Booker in the SKC also won't be fun.

Gafford is what made Dallas take that big step. He brought it all together.

Every team in the west race is flawed. And outside of Sacramento, every team could beat the Pelicans in a 7 game series.

I don't care. I just want the Pelicans to be healthy in the playoffs. And, I want the Lakers pick to be in the lottery even if it ends up 14th in a crappy draft.

PJ Washington is also a big part of it. They went from the front line being a huge vulnerability to being a big plus without giving up almost anything of value.

I want to see Boston in a series because that would mean we're in the freaking NBA Finals baw.

There's no way we'd play the Suns under any scenario unless it was further down the road in the playoffs, and in that case I'd be all for it

I wouldn't want to play Steph in a play-in game. In a seven have series I wouldn't enjoy Denver the most and then Minnesota. We had a lot of trouble with Ayton and Jokic and KAT would be way more problematic.

Pelicans always struggle with the Celtics.

First thing’s first, I least (or “most don’t”) want to host Warriors in a play-in, because we suck at home, and there would be suspensions likely coming out of that game if we win(unless it’s a Willie suspension, which may be additive).

Don't want Denver. I want a young OKC team that we match up well with

I would like us to face any team in a playoff series at this point.

I'll start with who I think they can beat in a series.

OKC
Minny
Phx
LAC
SAC

I don't want to see

Denver
Dallas
LAL (Lebron/Refs)
GState (Bad matchup)

I didn't put any Eastern conference teams because if the Pels are in the finals, they are beating the brakes off of whoever they play.

Lakers, Mavs, Suns.

Every other team we can hang with.

Assuming we have a functioning Willie G for that game.

This. Lakers will frick us up. Warriors too.

Clippers and Sac scare me the least.

Then OKC and Minny.

Then Phoenix.

Then Denver.

Denver, Dallas, OKC would all beat us in 5.

Phoenix and Golden State would probably beat us in 6.

Lakers would be a toss up. I know we've owned the Clippers this season, but playoff Kawhi and George (if they are healthy) still scare me, that'd be a toss up too.

I think we'd beat the Kings and T-Wolves in 5 or 6.
