We have the date. Less than a week away. The stage could not be more set for greatness. We are tied for 2nd to last in the West but the team is finally coming together. The schedule ahead for us is all downhill while it gets harder for the other teams vying for those last playoff spots. We all know that the chances of us making that 8th spot would be pretty good even without Zion......but the majority of NBA viewers do not. Zion is about to look like the biggest MVP savior to ever grace sports in the modern internet era. It will look like he blasted in and single handedly LeBronned this team to greatness. As if he didn't already have enough clout built up.
The bandwagon is coming.
This is the NBA. We saw it with Miami, LeBron, Golden St, always with the Lakers. The odds are great that we are about to become the next bandwagon destination. We can see that a bit with the Saints. There is something about NOLA that attracts even more people than other destinations when you put a bandwagonable franchise together. And that starts in six days.
This board will change to an unrecognizable point. In some ways good and in some ways bad. Old posters will return. People who just six months ago were wearing Warrior jerseys will be stashing those away for a fresh Pels look. We'll be a great site for even more overseas posters. It's going to get lit.
So I just wanted to take that time to recognize you homies that helped pass the time in these dark ages. Man, we've been through some hopeless and miserable things. We didn't always get along....but that tends to happen during lean times. I'd make the argument that, for the stuff we've had to watch, we dealt with it more functionally than most other fan bases would have. I hope we can start doing annual get together games or something. Start a gofundme and get Dae over here for a homestand. I appreciate all of you. When all the noobs start flooding in, you'll be the usernames I recognize and smile as I see them.
