What 1st round Playoff match up does everyone want?

I'm more in favor of facing the Celtics but it looks like we would have to finish in 3rd to get them. Its more that i don't want Atlanta or Miami because of their experience. If Bosh comes back for the playoffs, its a wrap for whoever plays them.

I really just want to see up keep rolling into the postseason and not limp in.

This has been a tale of two seasons. At the halfway point, this team was 18-22 having lost 8 of their last 9. Kemba's 52 point game to get an OT win against Utah may have saved the season because including that win, this team is 24-10 since and playing some of its best basketball.

In that early stretch where the team was still trying to figure things out and the roster was hurt, they went 8-13 against current playoff teams in both conferences.

In the second half of the year, while they've played fewer playoff teams, they have an 8-6 mark against those they have played, including impressive home victories against Cleveland and San Antonio.

Maybe we're not giving the second half team enough credit because of the small sample size...?

    • https://nfltraderumors.co/2026-nfl-draft-grades-for-all-32-teams/      Grade: B+ Best Pick: Sam Hecht Biggest Reach (consensus rank): Jackson Kuwatch (NR) It's easy to love what Carolina did. The Panthers traded four times but ended the draft with the same number of selections that they started with and in approximately the same ranges. They did not take a player ahead of the consensus until Kuwatch at No. 227, and it's easy to see how he fell through the cracks playing at Miami of Ohio. He's a high-end athlete, though, and has a chance to develop, which is a fine profile for a seventh-rounder. Freeling and Brazzell also checked the high-end athleticism upside boxes for the Panthers. Carolina let the board come to them in the first round and could have a long-term solution at left tackle, which is a hard position to fill. Brazzell slid because of some maturity concerns as well as the difficulty in projecting receivers from Tennessee's Mickey Mouse offense. At 6-4, 200 pounds and 4.37 in the 40, though, the upside is undeniable. On top of that, the landed three starters on Day 3. Normally that's a high and unrealistic bar, but Hecht and Wheatley were both firmly inside the top 100 on the consensus board and have paths to win starting competitions. Lee fits the scheme well and has some interesting traits as an outside corner. What stopped me from a full-out A grade is not loving the Hunter pick, though he does fill a need to replace DT A'Shawn Robinson. There were prospects at other needs positions I would have been more jazzed about. The Brazzell pick is also an interesting risk for a team that's still in building mode, even coming off an NFC South title. Still, I'm nitpicking
    • I was just a teenager when I joined in 2013. I've loved the many opinions on this forum, even though several are infuriating. I've had several bad takes, myself,  that I've hopefully grown out of over the years.
