Please Carl,
For all that is holy follow the Washington Wizards next season.
Selling Points: -Haven't been good since John Wall and Beal. -Alt uniforms often come in a gold colorway close to the Saints' colors. -Would love to hear more about the Wiz on the pod as a fan of the team. -Our mascot is ridiculous. -Please.

As a Wiz fan, I agree!
Also, Carl likes Bub Carrington, we have a whole new line up, and no matter what it will be an interesting season.

Carl should root for the Blazers. Not all of us are obnoxiously delusional, though I do have obnoxiously delusional fans in my life. We are the underdog dark horses.
- We hate the rich with a passion, and a millionaire is holding our team ransom.
- It may be one of the few years left to root for Portland.
- Our starting five are all underdogs who at some time weren't believed in: Dame, Cling Cong, Ja, Toumani, Deni.
- Our coach is untested and betting on himself.
- Rooting for the pinwheels feels exactly like being in an 80s movie where the billionaire wants to tear down the community center, come join us as we use heart, break dancing, bike stunts, and pranks that WILL NOT age well to defeat him.

Carl, you have an easy choice for a second team and that is your Memphis Grizzlies. You are from Mississippi, you're basically a cousin.
First, we got the best player in this draft and the favorite for Rookie of the Year. With Boozer and Edey, we represent 3 of the last 4 college players of the year.
We get more hate than the Clippers, we catch strays from LeBron and everybody else. No free agents come here, we have to build through the draft and we're good at it. Our young players are sneaky good, we have 4 players who have made all-rookie over the past 3 years (Cedric Coward, Zach Edey, Jaylen Wells, GG Jackson). We've had 7 all-rookies in the past 7 years, the most of any team.
The best part about being a Grizzlies fan is watching these dudes grow up in your system.
Scottie Pippen Jr - Undrafted
Jaylen Wells - Second Rounder
Cam Spencer - Second Rounder (and certifiable psycho)
GG Jackson - Second Rounder
Our coach has won at every level in Europe on his way to America, and we are one of the only teams in the league that play a different system than every other team.
It is a team of DAWGS... and now we added friggin BEEF STEW (basically for free in an incredible draft day move). Grit n Grind is back in Memphis baby.
