It is set in stone now that we can't get any higher than the 9th pick (unless we get lucky in lotto), correct?

Technically we can still tie with Detroit for 8th. Our lottery odds would be even, and if neither team jumps in the lottery the 8th pick would be decided by random draw.

Of course, this only happens if we lose out and they win out.

On my DVR it shows the Hornets Pistons game coming on from 4:30 to 6. They have a Cincinatti Reds game on from 1 to 4, with Reds post game coverage from 4 to 4:30. Is anyone else seeing this? Are they really only going to show the 2nd half of the game to show a **** baseball game from a team that is 3 states away?

I had a dream last night that Vonleh had 18 and 8 today, so we have that to look forward to...

After tonight we have Houston and Toronto, they have Cleveland and New York.

Very possible we lose out, less possible they beat Cleveland but maybe LeBron sits out.

Cleveland will be on a back2back when they play, so i think its likely the Big 3 doesn't' play.

Oh. I was thinking the tiebreaker rules were still in place even for teams outside of the playoff standings. It would actually be pretty big for us to get that number 8 and move ahead of Detroit.

I assume that means Monroe is playing, good for the tank.

LeBron, Love, Kyrie, and JR Smith are all sitting tonight, so they may be back for the Pistons tomorrow.

random thought - KCP's initials are very similar to the ones of the absolutely horrible Insane Clown Posse. both represent Detroit.

there might be some marketing there. but, yeah, ICP are garbage.
