    I had one where we were 9th.

    Yeah 8th will really suck, 9th will make me question if we really did offend the basketball gods. It's like 1 in 200 chance.

    I've reserved myself to idea 6th or 7th is statistically most likely spots.

    Top4 would be great.

    #1 and I'm throwing a parade for Roy.

    If we get #2 it will be very interesting to see what direction the franchise goes in.

    I'd like to see us take a chance at adding a star on a cheap rookie deal for the next decade.

    I expect we'll trade it for a player like OG and secure a ceiling of first round exits.

    Another reason I'm so desperate for #1

    just turned on ESPN and the broadcast keeps freezing up and stalling...great. If that keeps up it won't be frustrating or anything

    It just stopped, it’s working now, for me anyway. I was about to tweak out.

    Woj said multiple executives have said Wemba is possibly the greatest prospect in the history of team sports.

    Executives also said he may be the best offensive player in the league, and the best defensive player in the league, in year 3.

    I can sprint-drink when I have to

    but I'd never be drunk enough to say reserved when I meant resigned
