    Our defense is dead last. No way a team makes the playoffs with how bad our D is

    Well, since Harry Giles has an ACL tear/repair on each knee and is sitting out due to a clean-up surgery on one of them, I think we're definitely in Honk Once Territory. And before MM asks, even though he sounds like one of the One Direction guys, he's not a white center. ;)

    I mean, if we pick at 19, and he falls to around 10 because of his injury, I wouldn't mind using 19 to trade up to take a chance on him. It would be different then having the #1 pick and drafting him.

    You rep the lottery, but do you know anything about any of the prospects available? Expository late in the lottery where we would pick if we somehow missed the playoffs? I'm willing to bet you don't.

    Not yet but I will. I'm excited too. I told you guys last year but it's coo I don't regret the time wasted because we can always use last year as a case study that bullshit theory free agents come here if they see semi success

    The lottery has showed this franchise much more love than free agency and competing has ever done
