Random nomination for terrible big city... Memphis. I've been twice and I hated it both times. 

The abomination that they call BBQ is the main problem for me...

Also anywhere in Arkansas sucks lol. Idk if any of their cities qualify

Gotta be careful with BBQ. Means totally different things in different parts of the country.

That's a state, my dude. Pretty bad though.

I visited for the first time a few weeks ago... I was not impressed. Homeless people on every street corner in tents. It was really sad.


Man... Louisiana is just the worst state. I always hate going thru there when traveling to Florida. I think we only stop in Alexandria where there's like 10 gas stations on one corner. I think that's Alexandria at least...

Oh, don't get me wrong. I love New Orleans and southern Louisiana in general. Especially the food.

You are officially a Mavs heretic. Utah is a bad city.

No city sucks as much as Houston.

Killer,  trust us. Utah is a bad city.

Someone failed the Mavs trivia test.

I'm legit torn. 

On the one hand I want ATL to win because doing so might cause PHI to invoke drastic changes, such as trading away Simmons (not saying the Mavs have a shot but it'd be better if they fail). 

On the other hand if ATL were to win we'd never stop hearing "Trae made it to the ECF in his first playoff run he's so much better than Luka yada yada yada". It'd become nauseating.

Can’t believe I missed the joke. Le me know if I need to hand in my Mavs fan card.

If Philly losing would result in Simmons on the Mavs then I definitely want Philly to win.

Not the great Egyptian city that once housed the greatest library of all time!

Really glad Milwaukee won.  I think I will root for them regardless for the rest of the playoffs.  But today I am a Sixers fan.  

I was worried BKN was going to win it this year.  With all their injuries and lack of play together, if they would have won it all this year that would not have been a good sign for the league and the haters of super teams.  Regardless, what I saw this year they may have a 4 year run where they have a really good chance for 2 plus championships.   I thought Nash was really solid this year, as was their ability to have solid production from low $ role players.

It appears like Milwaukee will not make a coaching change, but we will see how the next series goes.  It would have been very tricky for Rick to take that job.  Being the president of the coaching association, it would not have been a good look if he took that job after the rumors recently.  Even if the rumors were not true.    Where does Rick go if not Milwaukee?   It appears he is not being considered for Boston.   Portland?  That would be intriguing but do they hire a coach similar to the one they fired and one who may ruffle some feathers in a delicate situation?   New Orleans?  That would also be attractive but does the Pelicans ownership want to pay big money for a coach? Outside of those two, does Rick really want to coach in a place like Indiana who are not going anywhere?   Maybe sitting out for a year may be the best option, but it seems like he wants to coach now.

Houston...is bad. That one is at least a good try. But no, Milwaukee is worse.

You guys are just salty because Houston is bigger than Dallas and is the 4th largest city in the country.  That's it, admit it... Big Grin

Kamm is right - meant Louisiana. Alexandria, Virginia is a beautiful gem of a town and unfortunately priced accordingly.

I'm trying to figure out why people think Utah is bad? I visit there every once in a while, my mother grew up there so I have a lot of extended family there. There is so much to do there with the mountains. I never wanted to live there, but I always had a ton of fun when I visited.

It's just a Dirk thing.

Utah is BEAUTIFUL, one of the most gorgeous landscapes in the world IMO.
