I'm not a Hedo hater, but I thought any team that signed him for $50M+ that wasn't going to become an instant contender with him would be sorry.
I don't see what's the point of missing the playoffs. 15th or 14th pick, they're practically the same. Virtually no chance of getting a top three.
No kidding. Everyday when I watch the basketball jones with Skeets and Melas, I can read it on their faces whenever they talk about the Raps ... especially Melas, who seems particularly disgusted.
If they make the playoffs they don't get a pick(which is lottery protected) at all cause they traded it to the Heat in the JO/Marion trade. So its really a difference between a lottery pick and no pick at all.
Toronto would likely be 12th because their record would be worse than Mem and Hou. And ya Choco described why we ant it. Also, before you say what about Bosh leaving would playoffs change that. I doubt it, the Cavs have essentially a bye versus either the Bulls of Raptors.
A good friend of mine is a Bulls fan so I have been rooting for them for the last month or so. Glad to see what they're doing tonight, but they do have the harder remaining schedule.
