    It certainly does matter significantly where the Blazers finish in the lottery. It's not just the odds of #1... its what pick slot the Blazers fall back to if they are outside the top4.

    The worst record won't fall past #5. So that team is guaranteed a top5 pick.

    The Blazers are currently tied for the 10th worst record. So if they lose coin flips and get jumped in the lottery they can fall all the way to pick #14.

    If the team ends up with the 5th worst record which has very similar odds to the worst record for #1 overall - but they can fall to pick #9.

    Don’t worry. The Blazers never fail to disappoint. They will be in the leagues bottom 3.

    Shit they look like twins out there. When I’m clipping off and saving plays during action I can honestly say a few times a game I give Camara credit for a Rupert play and the other way around.
