They're so bad it's making for a close game.I'm gonna be honest - this is awful basketball.
These might genuinely be the two worst teams that made the playoffs.
Not at all. Both are just very good defensively and the matchups favor the defense on both sides.I'm gonna be honest - this is awful basketball.

Which other playoff teams would you take either of these teams over?Not at all. Both are just very good defensively and the matchups favor the defense on both sides.
Lakers, Clippers, Suns, Pelicans, Bucks, HeatWhich other playoff teams would you take either of these teams over?

Possibly Pacers.
Clippers (with kawhi), Lakers, suns definitely beat both of these teams. Pelicans with Zion beat both these teams. Bucks with Giannis beat both these teams. Heat with Jimmy Butler beat both these teams. Pacers are about equal. ImoLakers, Clippers, Suns, Pelicans, Bucks, Heat

Those guys have really good trade value. Garland makes the most sense to move because Mitchell is at his best playing the point and dominating the ball. I wouldn't be surprised to see a Garland for Brandon Ingram deal this summer as long as they can agree to an extension with Ingram beforehand. I think Mitchell would be far more likely to sign an extension as well with Ingram on board. For the pelicans I think Garland is a great fit their young core.Outside of Mitchell, the Cavs players don't have much trade value, tbh. They're not going to get a star back for Mobley, Garland or Jarrett Allen at this stage. The Jazz have their picks. They're going to need to trade Donovan and reboot. Donovan did his part, but the fit with Garland wasn't great and Evan Mobley just hasn't developed much offensively. Meanwhile, Allen can't seem to stay healthy. I just don't see where this group has left to go.
Call it a swing and a miss.
There is no way in hell the Pels are trading Ingram for Garland.Those guys have really good trade value.

Give me one good reason why they wouldn't?There is no way in hell the Pels are trading Ingram for Garland.
