    Draft lottery position is a HUGE…maybe even an orange man’s YUGE priority to some in management. . The Conductor wants wins for his resume. Uncle Bert wants wins. The players want wins. Joe and Mike say they want wins, but they value the pick more

    It doesn't seem like it's Huge at all from this fan perspective. Someone mentioned they could use assets and our pick to trade for more picks or up in the next lotto.

    Two different thought processes going on. Right now Bert and Jody are convinced they are close. They are leaning on the word from people outside the organization. It would not shock me to learn this person is our new GM next year.

    For anyone reading their own thoughts into this

    A. No idea who it is
    B. No idea if they’ll make a change at all

    Personally, I thought Scoot and Shaedon should’ve played less minutes. They were allowed to pad their stats in the 4th quarter when Rupert and McGowens should’ve already been in the game. As it was said, you all would’ve been calling for Chauncey’s head if Scoot or Shaedon got injured.
