No Ben, but that was given on a B2B. But also No Clowney.

The last two games Claxton has looked much better. Hope it continues…..

Even with a huge lead we almost lost the game. On the bright side we do have the Bucks pick so a win against them is not bad .

lol good win. I'm hoping Bucks can lose enough to be a play in team.

Man we need to stop winning these games. Cam J needs to go to the highest bidder.
I REALLY think we need one of the big 3 in this draft. At this rate we wont get there.

wins against the bucks are the least offensive of the anti-tank because they at least help keep the Bucks pick top 20. it's currently #19 but basically tied with 7 others with 17 wins.
for the Nets it seems unlikely they will catch the "top 5" in worst odds. those teams are all 5 wins less right now. The 6th spot is very much in play, and the odds at 6 aren't very different from 5. getting to bottom 4 would be a decent odds increase, but that seems unlikely unless 2 of those top 5 teams go on winning streaks.

Washington and NOLA will be the bottom 2. It's conceivable that one of Charlotte, Toronto or Utah got on a little luke warm streak at some point. It's unlikely more than one does. We're pretty firmly set in the 5-7 or 5-8 range. The odds aren't hugely different. We just need to hope for some lottery luck. It's not worth stressing over winning every third game.

I can't believe Cam Johnson suffered an injury on the 2nd to last play of the game. We need to put him in bubble wrap for the next month, both for his trade value (I don't think we'll move him, but who knows) and for our tank.

Rockets have swap rights on it.

Those Suns picks are going to be absolute gold. Still think we should have been able to keep one.

We traded 2 firsts and 2 swaps for a first in a strong, earlier draft and a swap. We got good value. Even if the '25 draft order was locked in as it currently is, moving up from 11 to 7 would cost a 1st rounder. Similarly, moving a pick up a year would cost at least an additional swap, if not more.
