    I think it helps that there really is no one on our team you want to root against. We don't have a Draymond nut kicking people, or a Harden cheesing the game with annoying fouls, or a CP3 cheapshotting players and whining, or people tired of the LeBron narrative.

    We have a humble superstar big man that everyone loves to watch, a stoic grit and grind guard, playoff Rondo, Threekola, a bunch of feel good underdog role players, an underdog coach with a great sense of humor, and collective sympathy toward a big man that was having an MVP type season unfortunately cut short. All culminating in one of the biggest surprise runs of the post all-star season.
    Every single player on our team is an overall nice guy who has either redeemed themselves of a bad reputation due to unlucky circumstances (Rondo, Boogie), or has been in and out of the league and been fighting for their games (AD with injury, Okafor out for years, Miller in Germany, even Jrue with injury and his wife's health) and yet we don't complain, we're never causing trouble, and we just play. We don't have any bad eggs and we're fun to watch. That's a recipe for underdog support.
    Basketball.

    How nice of them to be reporting the truth instead of speculation for once.

    Spread on this game is 2 1/2. Easy Money. Packed crowd, Boogie in attendance, team locked in. I'm expecting a blowout.
