Just like to gauge the forum on what people think would be the best option for the team going forward.

Please elaborate below if you have more to say on the topic.

I'm tired of the Cs losing games.  Stick it to the Wiz and then on to the Nets.

I’d prefer to play the Sixers.  Plus, it would give us added revenue from two home playoff games so that Wyc doesn’t go complete Scrooge McDuck on us.

I have no, and I mean absolutely zero, interest in this team making it beyond the play-in.

If this team has to "earn" the right to be eviscerated by an opponent I despise, I hope that it comes as a result of Tatum going supernova.  Give us something to feel good about to end the season.  Because you know if they make it beyond the play-in the season is going to end with 4 straight lopsided losses.

Lose against the Wiz, play the Sixers. Not that we have a chance, but I think the Wiz have a better chance against BKN than we do and it’s always fun playing the Sixers.

Can't win the pot if you're not at the table.

I'd prefer the Sixers, but I want to win, not lose/win.

I think we will be lambs to the slaughter vs. Nets, but would love for our team to prove otherwise.

Win first game.

I don't want the 76ers use this season to get the Celtics out of their heads.

I think the Bucks are playing the best ball in the East right now.

The #1 and #2 seeds are #1 and #2 seeds for a reason. They've played fantastic basketballs all season long.

I believe the top 4 seeds will advance to the East Semis.

I see Miami making it to the East semifinals myself.
