Detroit was historically bad last year. I think the set a record for most consecutive losses. They should be better this year I think, but not by enough for the pick to transfer.
2026 or 2027 - maybe. But I'm not optimistic.
Well, I already said I'd buy StlHawksFan a pizza if DET makes the play-in this season... and he tried to push it back to 2027.
How about this. If the Knicks get either the Detroit or Washington first rounder, I'll buy you a pizza.
I think it's hugely unlikely it happens in 2025, but could happen in 2026.
Wizards' protection; Top 10 next year, top 8 2026, so if the wiz get Cooper Flag and win 30 something games in 2026, maybe NY gets their pick in the 9-12 range - that would be really cool. Totally worth a pizza. If not, they get an early 2nd rounder in 2026 and one in 2027. I'd say . . . 20% chance that one conveys.
Pistons' protection; Top 13 protected in 2025, top 11 in 2026, top 9 in 2027, so 2027 might happen. Feels too far away to make a good prediction though. But 40%-50% chance that one conveys.
2027 is iffy. How about if it happens by 2026 I'll buy you a pizza. two if they get both picks in 2026.
