do you wish we tanked for zion?

[cd98]

No. Keep playoff streak going. No telling if/when the Spurs will ever challenge for a le, but keeping the streaks that they can going keeps this franchise in the record books.

[DAF86]

No, I wanted the consecutive playoffs record.

that streak. It's like asking someone, "would you want to struggle financially for a year with a promise to have riches for the next 10-15?". Anyone saying no is a goddamn fool. At the beginning of the season, I said we should trade Aldridge to a garbage team for their pick in this year's draft(trust me, he wouldn't have led them to the playoffs), trade kawai to one of the worst team's in the league for the same deal, hoping he'd sit out again.. Then tank. That would have been 3 lottery picks. Even if we wouldn't have got the first pick, we are not that incompetent not to build a winning team with 3 lottery picks

Would I prefer to have the first-overall pick to having made the playoffs and being knocked out in the first round? Yes. Would I take a 13th- or 14th-overall pick over the 19th pick and a playoff? Nope. I would have supported a tank had the team never gotten it together in December. But I'm content to build with the young players the team has while making the playoffs for the next two years. Never know when a lucky pick or shrewd trade can come along to make the difference.
