I don't understand the Kings.... they have talent. There's no reason for them to be consistently shit. Is it coaching? Is it their front office?
That worries me a bit as well. They jump into the Top-4, and then we keep winning and somehow get into the Playoffs, we got from having 2 Lottery picks to not having any. So Portland....
Updated to the Allstar break. Keep NO pick if it's 5-14 Keep own pick if it's 1-14 Current NO pick: 7, but 29.4% chance we don't keep it (2nd to last column) Current PDX pick: 10, 16.9% chance to move to top 4. (5 wins less than #15).
The thing about our tank is that it might really get going over the next 10 games but then we have 11 straight games of running head on into other tanks. This should be interesting.
The Tank is back! Reminder: Keep NO pick if it's 5-14 Keep own pick if it's 1-14 Current NO pick: 7, but 29.4% chance we don't keep it (2nd to last column) Current PDX pick: 9, 20.3% chance to move to top 4. (5 wins less than #15).
did you see how hard GS was trapping/doubling Ant every time he touched the ball? I don't think he'll need to sit out any games. Teams are completely taking him out as is.
I love this! Ant gets great practice at being overplayed, and still gets 24 points on 50/57/100 efficiency. AND the tank shifts into next gear.
They've been horrible at drafting. Chose Bagley over Doncic and Trae. Sabonis is good but he just got there. Takes time for his teammates to adjust.
Pacers with an inexplicable blowout of Boston. I don't think we'll catch em but that was a useless win for them.
I don't know, they play the Magic twice and then the Pistons... that seems like a four game win streak to me. Then they'll start getting guys back. Warren, Turner and McConnell are all pretty close. We've just gotta start dropping games which shouldn't be too hard for the next couple of weeks and then keep losing when losing gets tough. I think we could get to the fifth spot. When those games that are hard to lose come along, you just come up with a reason for Hart to sit.
To tank this hard and blatant there has to be a prospect they REALLY want in the top half of the draft. Me and @Rastapopoulos are in agreement that we both hope that the prospect is Chet.
The Lakers might miss the playoffs and let the Pelicans in. We would then lose the Pelicans pick this year. Fuck the Lakers man!
I would like to see us move ahead of San Antonio at least in the lottery race; the others are tanking so heavy it will be tough to pass them.
