Yeah, I don't see the Pels taking one from the Clippers or Lakers. If they can push either of those teams to six games, then "the ceiling is the roof" for next season.
But yes, my lofty hopes were for Denver and maybe Utah, but those are several spots away, lol.
I only said satisfied because I know some fanbases are "championship or bust!" but I'm thinking more about where they'll be next season. To me, winning a series this season would tremendously increase my hopes for next season (the ceiling would be the roof, as they say). Honestly, making the playoffs is more than satisfactory at this point, lol. I really just want them to look good.
