The Dallas Mavericks play the Portland Trailblazers tonight, wrapping up the regular season at home. But I don’t really care about that game. The Mavericks are already locked in to the 7th seed. It doesn’t really matter.
No, tonight I’ll be the world’s biggest New Orleans Pelicans fan. And I suspect that I won’t be alone.
We won’t know who the Mavericks will play in the opening round until tonight, but what I do know is that I’d like them to avoid the San Antonio Spurs at all costs.
They can do that if the Pelicans beat San Antonio.
