Here we go, time to find out what's what.
Whassup
Wasup Madafaka!
We definitely jumping in the top 4 because it's the lakers pick
Just did one spin on Tankathon:
1. Detroit
2. Pels
3. Indiana
4. Sacramento
Gimme your one spin results!
I did 10 spins on Tankathon earlier today. Got us in 8th 6 times, 9th twice, 4th once, and 2nd once.
Likeliest outcome is 8th, and I'm fine with that - obviously would not turn down a leap into the top 4 but I'm cool if it doesn't happen.
1. OKC
2. Washington
3. Indiana
4. Sacramento
Houston. Orlando, and Detroit, (currently one, two, and three) all fall out of top four.
NOP = 9th Pick
Just ran Tankathon 10 times:
3, 8, 8, 10 :eek:, 4, 4 ,1 :cool:, 9, 8
Moved up 40% of the time
I started my draft stuff late this year - I usually put a lot of focus in the entire year but life occurred and I didn't really pick it up properly until about 7 or 8 weeks ago. So my board will still be changing probably until the day of the draft.
But right now my 7-12 positions are looking something like
- Dyson Daniels
- Ousmane Dieng
- Johnny Davis
- Bennedict Mathurin
- Tari Eason
- Jeremy Sochan
In some kind of order. Yet to firmly decide which.
My top 4 are Chet, Ivey, Banchero, Jabari, in that order.
If we stay 8th or 9th, hopefully someone goes early on Juren, pushing more wings back to us
I like the mock part of the link. Results on truthful one spin:

My one and only spin had us getting the 4th pick. In that case, I hope we give strong consideration to Sharpe over Ivey.
My first and only lottery sim spin of the year:

1. Portland

4. Houston
Pels 8th pick -> OKC's pick was their own, not the Clippers
My only try I got:
1. Orlando
2. Portland
3. Washington
4. Houston
Pels fell to 9th. Wouldnt be the worst non Pels top 4 outcome IMO. Really just rooting against OKC moving up with the LAC pick and/or the Knicks moving up with the pick we would have had. I will be fine with 8 or 9, as long as the top 4 isnt like all Western Conference. Most interesting, just for a thing to talk about over next month, would be if the Pels get 4th. So many non ideal, yet very good, options there
Sorry, but does anyone know where you can see the draft order as it happens?
Say it now --
If I could promise you #8 right now and 3 of the top 4 are Eastern Conference teams (Kings get #3), would you take it or roll the dice?
