I want to open against a bottom feeder, so we can basically pencil in a win during ring and banner night.
When we get our rings and raise the banner
I want to open against a bottom feeder, so we can basically pencil in a win during ring and banner night.
^^^ This.
My first thought after the Thunder (Heat would be dumb..need to save that for later) was someone like the Bobcats or Bucks, but that would be insulting to those teams.
The best fit would be a marquee name that we are likely to crush on a night when the focus is on celebrating.
My pick? The Lakers.
Opening against the Lakers would be great, tbh.![]()
Mavericks. Playing the coach that challenged the Spurs the most.
Rockets. Or Pelicans. One of the 2.
Lakers sounds good
Going against Jodie Meeks and Swaggy P's Lakers would be cool, tbh..
Right now the rest of the NBA are bottom feeder so it doesn't really matter
I think it'll be OKC.
Sacramento should be the opening night sacrifice.
Sacramento, Minnesota, Utah or Pelicans. The other team is always fired up to beat the champs, so it's better if they come from the bottom half. Start the season with a win and build up from there.
The Lakers. With any luck, Kobe will be suited up to watch Duncan receive his fifth ring.
Lakers with Kobe would be pretty good, yeah.
Give Rick a ring too.
Whatever happens. I'm gonna be there. The raising of that championship banner will be so great.
The Heat started this season against the Bulls, who finished as fifth seed the season before. If you apply the same logic to next season, Spurs would be up against the Trail Blazers.
mavs
We opened with Memphis this season and OKC the season before, it seems they like WCF rematches
Watching the banner go up will piss off nobody more than Durant and Westbrook. Let it be the Thunder.
