JV should feast against Roby/Moose, SGA against Morant will be fun

yeah hope SGA does well against Morant (no need to win though)

Shai is so much fine to watch.

Presti should ask Coach D not to take those coach challenges anymore

13 TO's and only down one point...

Houston lost. Wizards, magic , twolves won or are winning. Let bazley take step back threes all second half please.

Balzey looking a bit better.

We want houston to lose.

Dort is going to be below 30% from three soon.

Pretty good night for us around the league, annoyed that Draymond had to sit out a game against Miami. Shai didn’t look too rusty, but yea Dort’s 3 % is plummeting fast.

Do yourselves a favor and watch Evan Mobley’s highlights from tonight when you get a chance, his all around game was on full display.

I want that pick to be 9-11. Don't want to risk a 35% chance of that pick not to convey just to go up one or two spots.

having an hard time watching the best prospects because I get angry when we win games

I would still pick Kuminga over Mobley but I know that's not a popular choice.

Really happy Miami lost. They got really lucky playing Clippers without Kawhi/PG13 and Gs without Draymond and still lost. They will face the Lakers without AD and Horford will probably rest against them

Btw Maledon is having a quiet but good season.. I really like the kid. He will need a couple of years to get physically stronger but he's pretty talented.

It’s a lottery. Risk is unavoidable. Right now the three picks are 6,7,8. Teams aren’t going to stay locked in specific spots for months. Even if we lose the pick, I would rather risk losing it than risk houston making the playoffs and drafting another long term project that can’t shoot.

I know there's a risk but the risk/reward isn't worth it to me. If they are bottom 5-8 they have 31.9% to get a top 4 pick or a pick between 7-9 pick most likely. If bottom 9-10 it's lower than 20% to get a pick just behind that (9-11 basically). Don't think there's a huge talent gap in the draft between those spots that are worth a 10+% risk for that pick swap not to convey.

But I'm already asssuming there's no risk Houston will make the playoffs. Just can't see it happening.

I also think a 9-11 pick from Houston could help us to move up into the draft if we have to (less likely with Miami, but we never know since they are struggling so much). Obviously the lottery is a gamble and we need luck but I think the ideal odds would be Houston to get less than 20% of that pick to convey (even if it means a worse pick to grap)
