However, I forget...draft picks goes in reverse order for playoff teams too right? Or does it depend on how far they advance? I think in the NFL, if you win the Superbowl, you get the 32nd pick even if you were a 6 seed with the 12th best record.


Based entirely on regular season record for NBA.

So you hated the trade yesterday, and now we are in a 2 pt game against a WCF team last year without our two top scorers and players, and starting Goodwin, the youngest guy in the league, Tucker and Leuer. What exactly do you expect from these guys?

I hated it? To correct you, I remember posting my final reaction to that trade was that it isn't bad at all. Love the first rounder we got.:)

Saying 'we suck' is just like a personal actualization that this team... right now, really sucks. And I'm fine with that cause I want Ingram or Simmons as much as the next guy. No worries, man. I still love our team.

Edit: See page 57 of trade transaction where I actually said it's not bad. So just to clarify things, nope, didn't really hate the trade.

Hard to believe this team went to the WCF last year. Yeesh.

I don't remember Harden being this bad on defense when he was at ASU.

OK, maybe it was someone else...thought it was you who seemed to think they couldn't believe that's what we got in the trade and was disappointed. I know letsgosuns was disappointed, but that's not unusual, so I thought there was someone else who I was surprised seemed disappointed with the return on the trade.

Yeah, "here, I'm wide open but let me flip it to a much worse shooter"......I'm all for guys trying to get other guy's going, and you want a guy that just doesn't jack up shots ALL THE time, like Knight, but if there is one person that should shoot when open it's him. And Telly or Leuer. Or Len from mid range.

I love Bookers TEAM first mentality, but I would like to seem him be a little more selfish, a little more alpha.

Booker did his scouting on Simmons and wants his assists for the next 10 years.

Can we go 2-26 the rest of the way?

I believe!

That should get us the 2nd or 3rd spot.

Really important that we lose this game!
