This week, we’ll take a look at whether you agree or disagree with some team survey results.
In this week’s SB Nation Reacts post, I didn’t have a Washington Wizards specfic survey. That was because I am on vacation the next couple of weeks. And that’s why I haven’t been writing as NBA Summer League is going on.
I looked at some team surveys from other sites and I just wanted to see what your take is on from a couple sites.
Here are some of the SB Nation Reacts surveys that other teams had. We’ll over them later this morning. pic.twitter.com/Q2BTrL0c35

At Mavs Moneyball, our Dallas Mavericks site, 84 percent of fans believe their team will make the playoffs this season. Now that Cooper Flagg is on the team along with Anthony Davis and a recent signing in D’Anelo Russell, that’s reason for their fans to be optimistic. In the 2024-25 season, the Mavericks made the postseason but were eliminated in the play-in tournament.
I was intrigued by two questions from Fear the Sword, our Cleveland Cavaliers site. One question asked which Eastern Conference team worries their fans the most. The New York Knicks had 54 percent of the vote and that wasn’t unsurprising. The Orlando Magic (27 percent) and Atlanta Hawks (9 percent) were after that. I get that the Indiana Pacers lost Tyrese Halliburton for 2025-26, but I would also think that they wouldn’t be … a doormat either.
The Cavaliers, who were the top team in the Eastern Conference regular season standings in 2024-25, also have an uneasy fanbase given that they lost in the second round of the NBA Playoffs. A significant portion, 40 percent, also believe that the team needs to make one more big trade to feel confident about another deep playoff run.
I’ll get up an SB Nation Reacts survey next week for us specifically. But in the meantime, feel free to chat about some of these results in the comments below.
