We’re picking 11-15.

We’ll pray for Malauch but end up with a solid but not great prospect.

Tank odds aren't looking good now but I do think the team will at least make a late season push to get to 8 or 9

Look, it's not looking good for the tank, but we're at worst picking 7th or 8th, not 17th.

You can forget about the draft.

We going all in on Jimmy Butler and we're going to be the best 10th seeded team the NBA has ever seen

I would love that and have Masai fired in 1 year and his legacy be Canadian Joe Dumars

I'm just thankful the team had a ton of non-serious injuries and was so disrupted in the first half of the season.

Ending up with the 6th or 7th worse record in the league (Nets roster is so much worse) when a team is probably winning 30-35 games with decent health is a great outcome.

If the Bulls are heavy sellers at the deadline, the Sixers pass them easily and they're at risk of being worse too depending on whether they dump both Lavine and Vuc. They're 2-8 in their last 10 and have looked really bad, only 5 losses behind now.

Khaman Maluach in a Raptors jersey would be awesome.

The Raptors blew it in the last passing on Yves Missi (current best odds for ROTY) for Ja’Kobe Walter.

It's headed that way. What a waste of 8-31

I don’t think they blew it at all (pause).

I’m not wowed by Missi. He’s a rim running big that’s solid but nothing special. JaKobe has potential to be an above average 3+D wing. I think they could have equivalent values long term, and if Walter adds more handles over time, he could actually end up even more valuable but right now I’m not ready to concede Missi is going to be better.

I don’t even think he would be the long term answer since he can’t spread the floor. Khaman on the other hand could potentially exactly the type of big we need.
