I'd love to see this team make the playoffs and somehow matchup with New Orleans. I know NO has some great talent, but if Dirk gets back they may be a great team to get in the first round. Houston also wouldnt be a bad matchup but it all depends on Dirk.

If we know Dirk wont make it back for the first round, I'd just throw a few games and get a better chance at a nice draft pick, although I dont know how high the pick this year is protected. I'd hate to throw games, miss the playoffs only to get 15th pick and have it be top 10 protected.
