The anger because they didn't put the Spurs first.Any list that starts with Portland is garbage: cursed franchise, awful medical staff, Dame on the way out, score first guards... but they have Nike's headquarters?stupid choice. Orlando also seems like a weird fit, with Banchero and Wagner already on board... do they want Wemby to play center??? Whoever wrote that doesn't know sh!t.
Portland would be a great destination.
It's gonna hurt if we don't get this dude.
For his sake I hope he doesn't get picked by Rockets because he will rot there for a few years by that lousy ran franchise
Dude, we're not getting him. Just prepare for the inevitable. 86% chance he goes to another team.
2nd worst record here we come
Do you know something about Houston we don't know?
Moderators please pink any Negative Nancys re Wemby til after the draft order selection.
The other two teams with worse records can also say the same thing.
Pistons not messing around tbh.
Small sample size, but since the new flattened odds, the worst team has never pulled the #1 pick. In order; 7,3,2,2
Wow, how small were the odds the year the worst record got jammed with 7th?
The win against the Kings shifted the lower pick odds a bit.
It shifted some percentage points from getting the 5th pick (-13%) to getting the 6th pick (+6%) and the new category 7th pick (+7%). But there was only a .500 chance of that anyway, since we would need a coinflip against the Rockets. And we have Dallas and Portland coming up, which will at least be compe ive. Also, T-Wolves, who we beat twice earlier in the year.
Those are the teams that landed no. 1 since 2019: 7th worst, 3rd worst, 2nd worst, 2nd worstWow, how small were the odds the year the worst record got jammed with 7th?
Place for worst team since 2019: 3, 2, 2, 3
Place for 2nd worst team since 2019: 5, 5, 1, 1
Place for 3rd worst team since 2019: 6, 1, 5, 5
Note: in 2019 and 2020 2nd and 3rd were tied and determined by tiebreaker.
Yeah but that statiscally means chances are bigger it happens this year.
What happened in year's past has nothing to do with this year's outcome. I'm sure you know that.
So if the trend holds, generally moving up a spot or two has been much better. Foolish win over the KIngs.
So the Pelicans in 7th place got the #1 Zion ping pong ball. What were the odds of that? Less then 2%?
Numerous posters called out Fattys diet but apparently the CBA prevents the owners from having any weight restrictions on the pampered players.
yeah, if not us, best case is charlotte gets him to help that first round pick convey
otherwise from a pure basketball perspective detroit just seems like an awesome spot for him, alongside Duren, with Cunningham/Ivey already in place
^ good to know.
But sounds like it's a super light slap on the wrist for Fatty Zion.
Not an effective deterrent for him to stop shoveling burgers.
The weight clause states Zion must keep the sum of his weight and body fat percentage below 295; if not, the guaranteed money in his contract decreases. However, that doesn’t mean his checks get smaller — so long as the checks are coming he receives the full max amount. The clause means that if the Pelicans ever waive him, Zion’s guaranteed money he is still owed would be smaller.
Houston smashing Denver with five left in the 4th.
Sengun >>>>>> Jalen Green
Sengun rubbing his d!ck all over Denver's face and he didn't even need to take it out of his pants. Take that Primo.
And they'd be right. Odds of getting him are . Count on 3rd to 5th. Anything higher will just be gravy.
If we get 2nd, we should trade back because short of landing Wembanyama, this team's current ceiling trajectory is likely anywhere from barely play in to maybe a 3rd, 4th, or 5th seed if folks like Sochan, Vassell, and others reach full potential.
