Brooklyn with a beat down of Philly in Philly. Impressive stuff. Wasn't much of a fan of either of these teams, but Harden tips the scales for me. I can't stand that guy.

I feel gross rooting for Golden State tonight.

If you want to feel good search Andrew wiggins on Twitter. Hahaha. Such epic meltdowns and frustration. Ahhhh. How I love that we don't have that guy on our team at a max deal anymore. Apparently they have found out now that wiggins sucks and they want him off the team.

I'm with you completely on this, Q. Harden definitely tips the scale for me against the Sixers. I disliked both teams for a while. I can't stand Harden. I despise Morey and I don't like Embiid. But I don't like Kyrie Irving either and I love watching another "super team" fail. I do like Durant, even though he's been pretty whiny and was a weenie leaving OKC for the easy ring with the Warriors. I'll be rooting for the Bucks in the East as I usually do. I'll also be be pulling for the Cavs and Bulls even though I can't see either one getting very far in the playoffs. I don't like Miami, but you have to respect what they've achieved this season with the talent they have. Then there's the Celtics. They've really hit their stride. I like the players on that team. I'd like to see the Sixers play the Celtics in the first round. The Celtics could beat them.

These are Denver's most difficult games remaining, in my opinion. The Wolves need some help and the odds aren't in their favor, but it's possible the Nuggets drop several of these games and open the door. Can Minnesota handle business down the stretch? That's the bigger question to me.

So far, so good. The Warriors are minutes away from beating the Nuggets, which will put the Wolves just 2.0 games behind them for a top-six seed. Minnesota can bring that number down to 1.5 with a win against the Magic on Friday. We needed some help from other teams. We're finally getting it.

Careful. This is exactly the kind of comment that could cause a board personality to temporarily leave a Minnesota sports forum...

Psst... 7 points (3-11 FG, 1-7 3P, 0-3 FT), 5 assists, 4 rebounds, 3 steals in 34 minutes. The slump continues.

Damn man. Get out of my head!

There are players I sorta like. But there are more players I definitely dislike. Even then, it's a sliding scale.

- Not a fan of the coordinated and choreographed sideshow stuff from LeBron James and his team.
- Dislike the pretend to be wise antics from Kyrie Irving.
- Frown upon the stuff from Ben Simmons, including timing his on-court return until AFTER the 76ers game.
- Detest the tough guy thing the Morris brothers have going on.
- Hate the style he plays... but even more so... that James Harden gets ANY good publicity after obviously quitting and tanking his performances on TWO teams in 13 months. The man should be a pariah everywhere he goes. Always.

I guess I gave those Nets some bull item board material. Lip brought up the Celtics and honestly I think this playoffs might be one where the team that has enough talent that actually plays like a team might be the team that ends up in the finals. That MIGHT end up being the Celtics. It would really be something if they went on a nice run after Stevens moved up to be GM and hired a rookie head coach and things came together for them.

I'll also say the West to me is really wide open because of questions about health of the top teams. I think there are various teams with the talent to make a run and that could even include our Wolves. I'm not expecting anything crazy especially for the Wolves but like I said things could be wide open in both conferences depending on various factors #1 being health.

With a win against Utah and the Pels losing the Spurs are now within a game of being in the play in. This is after they traded away 2 players and now have a pretty nice amount of draft picks upcoming. Is D Murray not talked about enough as a young guard? I didn't realize the numbers he was putting up.
