    Anyone putting money on this should bet Portland will pick 11th.

    I was thinking Jaquez as a comp., although that was a lot more enticing his rookie year.

    Since the lotto is in ChiTown watch the bulls win #1 pick.

    it's mathematically possible that the Spurs could end up with the 1st and 2nd picks....be afraid!

    At which point we should all just shift our entire focus to the Ducks.

    For those saying their money is on us ending up at 11, why the fuck is that? We have a whopping 63% chance of staying at 10, we have another 16.9% chance at moving up and for a total of 79.9% chance that we don't move back but you guys want to put money on us getting fucked over by moving back to 11 at 18.5%.

    II'm keeping my fingers crossed that we get lucky and hit on that 16.9% that we move up but I'm expecting the most probable outdome of us staying at 10.

    as far as I can tell, Blazers have had four #1 picks; Spurs have had 3

    Portland: Larue Martin-->Bill Walton-->Mychal Thompson-->Greg Oden

    San Antonio: David Robinson-->Tim Duncan-->Victor Wembanyama

    Spurs have obviously gained a lot more from 1 less pick

    Blazers took Larue Martin when Bob McAdoo, Julius Erving, and Paul Westphal were available

    and they took Thompson when Larry Bird, Reggie Theus, and Mike Mitchell were available

    I don’t think anyone of note was available after Oden. I did all the honking I needed to do.
