Now the next three games we have the Spurs twice and the Mavs. Who knew trying to get a play in spot in the West would make you sweat it out.
Jazz: Under reconstruction, we'll be back.

Great game against Hezi. Looks like Harrell might be back early as well so we should improve a lot. I'm still shocked we were able to pull out the win with that 9 man rotation and Landale being the only true big in it.

Matt Thomas is a killer as well.

Also with Lonzo missing all of next year that's hopefully another year in the sim of full strength Lonzo. That's a possible 3 of his 5 years under contract where he'll be an elite 3&D guy.

25 points, 4 dribbles. 3 of them came on his last 4 points including the game winner. Definitely in the lead for MVP, he now leads the Euroleague in PPG, RPG, and eFG%.

Congrats to my guys on 6 consecutive 50+ win seasons.

I am hearing that our win streak is in jeopardy today.

Brogdon injury might end my season. That’s ok. Heading in to next season with a much stronger/more balanced roster.
ATL
De'Aaron Fox / Kyle Lowry / Bronny James
Dyson Daniels / De'Anthony Melton / Talen Horton-Tucker
OG Anunoby / Jaylen Wells / Baylor Scheierman

I'm a long shot to truly compete this year, so you potentially getting worse lottery odds and potentially my own pick being slightly better is a fine consolation prize.

You didn’t set your lineup like that was the rationale though :lol:

I ain’t too trippy over the lottery odds. They’ve been flattened enough to not really make me lose any sleep over whether my Toronto lottery odds ends up 4th, 5th, 6th, or 7th.

Plus, I’m sure the GMs picking in front of me will end up picking the wrong player(s) anyway, leaving me who I really want.

The most important element is I get two bites out of the apple. No one else can say that.

I have never sat healthy players in order to achieve a better draft pick, unlike many others. *Ahem*

You should probably change your SN to notwackbone just to clarify this point.
