Event 2025 NBA DRAFT LOTTERY, COMBINE, AND DRAFT

It would have gotten us top 5... That would be awesome.

 

Utah is picking top 5

 

Ok so now the conspiracy is that the NBA wants superstars to go to a team where they become a superstar?

And the NBA rigs the draft so superstars go to a wide variety of teams from San Antonio to Oklahoma city to Denver to Milwaukee.

Some of them get picked in the 2nd round during a Taco Bell ad... But this is the conspiracy to do something too.

Ohh and the NBA trades SGA from LA to Oklahoma City as well because they need a superstar in cow country.

The conspiracy just makes so much sense!

 

Got them top 5. I promise you they don't want to trade picks with us.

 

Well shit. They must've missed the memo on Dame.

 

You mean back in the 80s before anyone knew Jordan would be a global superstar and he changed the face of sports branding and how the league treats its stars? Is that what you’re saying?

 

So the NBA saw we had ROY and gifted us the Oden pick so we'd have two stars together? Yes the conspiracy makes more sense every minute!

 

As good as Dame was, he was not a LeBron, Shaq, Wemby.

 

So you didn’t believe in the Ewing draft eh?

 

Yeah, you just prove your conspiracies with previously unproven or even debunked conspiracy theories. Works every time...



...because you can say whatever bullshit you want no matter how out of pocket and just act like someone is naive if they ask for proof.

 

Right - it's the only big market besides the Lakers to have a handful of rings. Yeah obviously it was part of the conspiracy the NBA has been running for decades.

 

I see. So it's not superstar anymore, it's once in a lifetime generational player?

 

I literally forgot it was lotto day. Sounds like we went the way it was pretty obvious it was going to for the Blazers. Good thing is there are some really good players at the 11 spot. Hopefully the Blazers go after a solid player that is a bit older or maybe even from Europe.
Then maybe they can sign a decent player through free agency and start to create a winner again.

Go Blazers!

 

My guy feeling is Houston goes after Giannis to compete with the other 2.

 

I haven’t said anyone is naive. Other people are attacking me for my opinion, calling me a Trumper and a flat earther. I don’t know why it pisses you guys off so much that I think it’s possible that the league rigged it. It’s an opinion. So yeah I told some people to go fuck themselves for calling me a trumper. But I haven’t said anyone is naive.

 

Honestly was a little bit happy we didn't fall to 12th or worse!

 

No evolution required. The top half media markets have completely dominated the small markets in terms of championships. I posted the data 2 or 3 years ago. Small markets are fairing much better under the current "market balance" commish, which is nice.

 

Top 6? They don't want to trade picks with us either.
