Bank on it being very shortly after their game in Philadelphia. My guess is he doesn't want to ever step foot in that town again, which is not a good sign if they meet in the playoffs.
Spurs need a player like Tari Eason. If they could get Duren and Eason their in business.

Raptors pick: Where do we want them to end up again?
They're sliding. 3-7 last ten.
We want them in the playoffs, but barely. The pick is protected 1-14, so if they miss the playoffs, we have to wait another year. I’d be perfectly happy to see it right where it is, #17. If they stay #7 in the East,they get to host the 7-8 playin game. If they win, the pick will convey this year. If they lose, they host the winner of 9-10, and if they win that game, the pick conveys. The pick is good enough, and they get two home games to win once.
Knicks routed the Clippers. They've been up big a number of games and still lost. This wasn't one of them, so finally stop their skid.
Can't tell who is better to win vs. Kings and Knicks right now. I'd go with Knicks to get them off our backs. They're too good to be this ty. More like mediocre.
Now let’s get back to losing. Loss to Raptors actually helps them get to the playoffs, AND helps Spurs get a higher pick. So an L next game vs the Raptors is a must
Looks like the Kings are still terrible even with Sabonis, will be tough to keep them below us in the standings. It was good however for the Knicks to win to get them off our back as Mr. Body said.
i will say the Knicks too, they are one of our opponent for the lottery lol the kings are so bad, they will be behind us without a doubt imo.
Grizz vs Pelicans will be interesting Tuesday.
Pelicans without Ingram and McCollum for at least the next week. Look like they're a big risk to tank after all.
And their pick goes to Portland.
My guess is the Spurs end out at #9 or #10. They go from a 1/3 chance at a top 4 pick to a 1/5 chance or worse.
I think so, somewhere between 8 and 10.
About our picks :
The good- The Raptors won yesterday at phoenix, the return of FVV make them better and they are only 2 games behind the injured Cavs. The Lakers W one yesterday.
The bad- Boston continues to win, the Pels are really bad without CJ and Ingram, The Knicks L and are only 2 games ahead of us.
Boston’s pick will be whatever it is.
The Pelicans could have stood pat and tanked. They gave up their lottery pick in this draft for CJ. They’ll resume winning when those guys return.
New York's two games back with 16 to play. That’s actually a pretty tall hill to climb.
I'm ok with being 7th in the draft order since that one has a history of jumping into the top 4. Anything worse than that would be terrible. I'm pretty sure we will be 10th when it's all said and done
Toronto coming back and pounding Denver in the 4th.![]()
last 16 games...looks like most teams are in the tank
Not a bad day for us Rap, Portland won. We lost only pity is Sac lost too.
Great sign that Toronto is looking compe ive again!
Good that the Raps win.

Interesting that Portland schedule is really open, you never know. The Pels, the Raps, the Knicks with good schedule remaining.
Spurs will face NO 2 times and Portland 3 times, will be very important games for the lottery.

Ain't no way Spurs out-tank Portland in those 3 games. I bet they sit all their remaining starters and play their G-League squad while we play Murray and co.
I think the same, very unlikely to see portland ahead of the Spurs, we'll see.
Murray will continue playing solid for that MIP.
That Dallas win at Boston was very important. Hopefully keep Boston at around 20, they've been playing very well for a while.
As much as we've been fretting about Toronto doing poorly and Boston doing well, they're only 2 games apart in the loss column.
