Unfortunate outcome. But things may have turned out differently if we took the tank more seriously. Yes, the Mavs and Spurs jumped way ahead of us despite winning more games but every team with a worse record than us still ended up with a better pick than the ninth spot….

Hey it could be worse, the Raptors could be in Washington, Utah or Charlotte's position. They made sure they were nearly devoid of talent to "maximize" their odds this year (even tho those odds are really flat now) and aren't going to be any good for several years.

I hope you tankers are happy know. Remind me please, are the Mavs a tanking team?

So the team that trades their superstar to the Lakers wins the lottery again. I predicted this after the Luka trade, that there will be a coincidence.

Remind me, are the teams that ended up with worst records than us picking higher than us?

Do i wanna be 6th with **** all to show from a team building standpoint like you guys would have wanted or 9th with what we have now? Its an easy call.

Atlanta last year. Dallas and even san Antonio, who we FOUGHT to finish behind this year. Tanking is dead. Deal with it.

Yes because it’s brilliant to make decisions on something that has a 1.8% chance of happening….

This stretch right here, where we played everyone full rotation minutes is the reason why we’re picking 9th instead of slightly higher.

False, I was told those wins didn't matter.

The mavs winning it all, I hate the whole conspiracy theory ****, but this certainly aint helping it. Mavs send a great young MVP to the leagues darling Lakers as Lebron is on his way out, for absolute peanuts, and look at that, defy the odds and get the 1st OA.

As expected, complete waste of a season. Cant wait for that 6th placed finish and 1st round exit.

Scase wrote:But we were never going to be bad!!! Gotta secure that 9/10th pick and enjoy the maximum levels of cope we'll see here.

I'm predicting we finish 8th and we pick 9th. Hopefully the lotto gods bless us, despite us not deserving it.

Dang I was so close to nailing this, we finished 7th, who could possibly have seen this coming.

Give me one of Queen, Fears, Jaku, CMB, and I’ll cope my way through the summer.

It's interesting to see there's more emotion coming from Team Treadmill about this outcome.

tWo is the party of facts over feelings apparently

If we stay at our current draft range (7-9), who would you like for the Raptors to draft?
