    Who would have thunk the Pelicans would be the first team to win a sweep this year?

    Blazers are in a bad salary cap situation, worse than Eric Milligan’s acting career situation...

    Jrue playing like he’s the best PG in the league, just unstoppable! They could really hurt the Warriors who might want to avoid a sweep now.

    Wow. Really did not expect a sweep. Portland has been playing badly for a couple of weeks. But i expected more.

    Ok pelicans try and make it difficult for the warriors.

    To be fair, about 80% of our votes picked the Blazers too. We were just a little better than ESPN.

    Savage. Love it. OKC and Blazers both getting a cold dose of humility so far.

    In the second round I'll be rooting for the Pelicans against the Warriors almost as much as whatever happens on the Rockets side of the bracket.

    I thought the same thing. But look at the date of the tweet.

    That tweet was Morey giving a shout out the Blazers for beating the Warriors right before the All-Star game, which gave the Rockets the 1st seed. The Rockets never relinquished it.
