Hello Dub Nation HQ! It’s time to watch the lower seeds duke it out for an uphill shot at the playoffs. We’ve got three wonderful days of pre-playoff action and plenty of intrigue. Because of injuries and a generally wacky season, both the New Jersey Nets and Los Angeles Clippers are playing the role of spoiler - if they can get past the teams in front of them.
For today and tomorrow, it’s just straight up basketball matchups, and then on Friday the survivors will fightit out for final seeding position.
I’m definitely supporting Cleveland over Brooklyn and Minnesota over LA. I suspect I will be twice disappointed.
Who do you want to win?
Also, we got a minor injury update on Stephen Curry, as he works his way back from MarcusSmart taking a piggy back ride on the back of Steph's leg without permission. The good news is that there's no bad news, but anyone looking for a clean bill of health is forced to wait until later in the week:

I know I’m just dreaming a little dream but how cool would it be to have Kuminga as a warhead activated by The Chef, Dray$, Klay, and Iggadolla on the floor together, I imagine we’ll be seeing a lot more of Bjelica than Kuminga in the Playoffs
